Work History

The Irish, etc cl (67060) were staked at this location in Sep/53 by Prospectors Airways Company Ltd on behalf of a syndicate including Noranda Mines Ltd and Kerr Addison Gold Mines Ltd and were transferred later in the year to Pelly River Mines Ltd, which carried out mapping in 1954 and magnetometer surveying in 1955.
Restaked as Rae cl 1-23 and Ok cl 1-64 (94956) in Dec/65 by Mid-West Mines Ltd and Ventures Mining Ltd, which formed a new company in 1966, Kim Exploration Ltd, to develop the claims and carried out magnetometer, EM and geochemical surveying in 1966 and 1967 and gravity surveying in 1969. Golden Gate Exploration Ltd staked the adjoining Fannin cl 1-32 (94924) at the same time and carried out magnetometer and EM surveying, mapping and soil sampling in 1966; restaked as Eola cl 1-32 (Y40054) in Nov/69; as Patty cl 3-10 (Y59823) in Dec/70; and carried out limited bulldozer trenching in 1973.
Cyprus Anvil (formerly Anvil Mining) Mining Corporation staked the Mo cl 1-9 (Y60723) in Jun/71 and the Roc cl 1-4 (Y78028) in Jan/74 and explored the Golden Gate claims with mapping in 1977 under an option agreement. Renniks Resources Ltd added the Miami cl 1-13 (Y79354) in Jul/74, flew an airborne geophysical survey later in the year and changed its name to Glamis Gold Ltd in 1977. Cyprus Anvil restaked 3 Cal cl as RR cl 1-3 (YA86414) in Dec/84.
The property was sold in 1985 to Curragh Resources Inc, which performed mapping in 1987, road work in 1983 and 1989. In Nov/94 Anvil Range Mining Corporation acquired all claims owned by Curragh following the bankruptcy of the latter.
Anvil Range undertook a compilation study, between Aug/97 and Feb/98, to gather together all known geological data, including standardizing geological map units and accurately locating drill holes located within and surrounding their claim holdings. Only two reports, one of which covers claims assigned to this occurrence, were completed before Anvil Range encountered financial difficulties and terminated the project.
In Jan/98 Anvil Range filed for court protection in order to restructure the company. In Jan/99 Anvil Range¿s stock was delisted and the company entered bankruptcy proceedings.

Capsule Geology

The claims are underlain by schist and skarn of the Lower Cambrian Mount Mye formation near the contact of the mid-Cretaceous Anvil Batholith. Kim obtained a gravity anomaly but found later that it was spurious and caused by a calculation error. No mineralization or significant anomalies were found by Kim but Pelly River found minor disseminated chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite in silicified limestone near a magnetic anomaly on HEW cl 5 and 6. A second magnetic anomaly was outlined on Irish cl 8.
