Work History
Staked as Wren cl (Yll470) in Dec/66 by Homestake Ml Dev CL following release of GSC aeromagnetic data. Homestake conducted only preliminary prospecting and limited trenching in 1967 and 1968 before transferring the claims to J.B. O'Neill in Sep/68. O'Neill optioned the claims that month to Skyline EL.
Restaked as Vindy cl (Y58113) in Aug/70 by P. Dombrovski.
Capsule Geology
The claims are underlain by Upper Triassic Nikolai Greenstone and were rumoured to have been staked on copper showings.
