Work History
Staked as Arrow cl (Y59039) in Sep/7O by Anvil Synd (Can Reserve O & GL, Aquitaine C of Can L, Can Southern Pet L, Occidental Mls L and Husky OL), which explored with mapping and geochem surveys in 1971 and 1972 and a gravity survey in 1971.
Capsule Geology
Molybdenite occurs in quartz veins up to 30 cm thick within an unaltered porphyritic granodiorite body that intrudes a schist sequence of presumed Cambrian age. The mineralization was described as widespread but very low grade because the veins are widely spaced and most are barren. Two weak gravity anomalies were outlined nearby.
