Work History

Staked as Chief cl (99626) in Feb/66 by Cons Skeena ML, which completed a prospecting, soil sampling and geophysical program later in the year. Other staking included the adjacent Tom & Rob cl (Y412) of Canex, staked in Feb/66, which were explored by trenching and geophysical surveys in 1966; and Craig cl (Y4878), staked 5 km west in Mar/66 by Cons Van-Tor Res L, which conducted ground geophysical surveys and soil sampling later in the year. The Craig claims were restaked as Ram cl (Y93291) in Mar/75 by Dome E, (Can) L and Jorex L.

Capsule Geology

The claims are underlain by a small roof pendant of Carboniferous-Triassic conglomerate of the Nisutlin Allochthonous Assemblage in a mid-Cretaceous Batholith. No mineralization or anomalies were found.
