Work History

Staked as Nick cl 1-32 (Y784) in Mar/66 by Devils Elbow Mines Ltd and West Riding Copper Mines Ltd, which did no report any work. The southwest side was restaked in Jul/74 as Elle cl 1-88 (Y79958) by Teck Corporation & Silver Standard Mines Ltd, which carried out geological mapping, geochemical and geophysical surveying later in the year.

Capsule Geology

The claims are underlain by schist, limestone and calc-silicate of the Lower Cambrian Mount Mye formation near the margin of the mid-Cretaceous Anvil Batholith. No mineralization was found.
