Capsule
Work History
Staked as Sim cl (YA76076) in Sep/81 by a joint venture between Hudson Bay Mg and Minorco Can L, which performed mapping and geochem sampling in 1981 and 1982.
Capsule Geology
Minor scheelite was located in skarn zones within Mississippian calcareous sandstone and shale of the upper Earn Group near the margin of a Cretaceous pluton. The claims were originally staked to cover anomalous lead and zinc values in stream silts.
