Work History
Staked in Jun-Jul/74 as Once and Twice cl (Y82751), and as Thrice cl Y89415) 3.2 km to the southeast by Ecstall Mg L (Texas Gulf), which conducted mapping and geochem sampling in 1974 and 1975.
Capsule Geology
The claims cover a window of Lower Cambrian carbonate rocks which lie beneath Middle Cambrian shale and have been exposed by faulting. The carbonates contain minor sphalerite with traces of galena in widespread areas of weak tectonic fracturing.
