Work History
Staked as Vye cl (Y96813) in Sep/74 by a syndicate composed of Quintana Mls, Home OL and Brascan Res, which carried out a small mapping and geochem sampling program. The adjoining AB cl (Y96275) to the east were staked at the same time by Arctic Red JV (Welcome North ML, Bethlehem Copper Corp L, Utah ML, Int Mogul ML, and DuPont Ml Vent L).
Capsule Geology
On both properties, minor showings of sphalerite, pyrite and traces of galena occur in brecciated dolomite of the Cambro-Ordovician Franklin Mountain Formation.
