Capsule

Work History

Staked as 210 Weasel cl (YA42760) in Sep/80 by Canada Tungsten Mg Corp, which explored with mapping and geochemical surveys in 1981.
Restaked Aug/91 by H6000 Holdings Ltd as part of a block of 285 West cl (YB18768). The west claims were acquired by First Dynasty Mines Ltd in 1994. In Oct/97 New Millennium Mining Ltd a wholly owned subsidiary of First Dynasty staked West cl 362-370 (YB98638).

Capsule Geology

The claims are underlain by Mississippian Keno Hill Quartzite, which is intruded by a small Cretaceous stock. The quartzite is structurally overlain by graphitic schist, minor quartzite and limestone of the Late Proterozoic-Early Cambrian Hyland Group.
