Work History
Staked as Sherpa cl (Y1309) in Mar/66 by J.B. O'Neill, and as Hub cl (Y5468) in May/66 by Glenlyon ML. When the Sherpa claims expired in 1967, the ground was restaked as Hub cl (Yl2240). Glenlyon ML flew airborne mag and EM surveys and conducted a soil sampling and mapping program in 1966, completed a ground EM survey, bulldozer trenching and more soil sampling in 1967, and optioned the property in early 1968 to McIntyre Porcupine ML, which drilled one hole (208.4 M) to test a geochemical and EM anomaly later in the year.
Restaked as Rog cl (Y66601) in May/72 by R.G. Hilker and C. Shandalla and transferred to Jalna Res L, which trenched in 1975-77 and 1979. Getty Mls tied on GETC cl (YA49116) to the south in Jun/80 and performed geochem and EM surveys later in the year. The showing was restaked as Rog 43-48 cl (YA74498) in Jan/82 by Jalna Res L.
Capsule Geology
The GSC reported pyrite and chalcopyrite in quartz veinlets in this vicinity in 1935 and Glenlyon ML found minor occurrences on these claims. Host rocks are sericite-chlorite schist. Glenlyon reported that a grab sample from surface assayed 3.9% Cu, 2.06 g/t Ag and trace Au. Traces of chalcopyrite associated with pyritic quartz veins were cut throughout the drillhole. Core assays ranged from 0.02 to 0.3% Cu, 3.4 to 6.8 g/t Ag and trace to 0.34 g/t Au.
