Work History
Staked as Pal cl 1-32 and Bea cl 1-32 (95560) in Dec/65 by Citation Exploration Ltd, which flew airborne magnetic and EM surveys and carried out geological mapping and soil geochemical surveying in 1966. Citation changed its name to Citex Mines Ltd and added Top cl 1-16 (Y30399) in Feb/69 and Sank cl 1-46 (Y50237) in Feb/70 and flew another airborne magnetic survey in 1971.
Capsule Geology
The claims are underlain by Mississippian to Permian bedded chert of the Rose Mountain formation (?) and Permian basalt of the Anvil Range Group near the southern margin of a mid-Cretaceous granitic batholith and the projected extension of the Vangorda fault zone.
