Capsule
Work History
Staked as Len cl (YA87113) in Jun/85 by Noranda which performed mapping and geochem sampling in 1985 and 1986. M. Renning tied on Sam cl (YB13968) to the northwest in Jun/88.
Capsule Geology
The claims are underlain by Mississippian greenstone, tuff, cherty argillite, siliceous limestone and chert pebble conglomerate intruded by Tertiary quartz feldspar porphyry dykes containing fluorite veins. Sampling gave disappointing results.
