Work History
Staked as Nox and Utlut cl (66086) in Jun-Sep/63 by Canalask Nickel ML, a new company formed by Ontario Nickel ML and Frobisher L, following an aeromagnetic survey conducted by Lundberg EL. Frobisher's interest was later transferred to Quebec Metallurgical Ind L.
Restaked as Sal cl (YA97996) in Jun/87 by Harjay ECL and Kluane JV (All-North Resources L and Chevron Mls L) and again as L.C. cl (YB25625) in Apr/89 by R. Stack.
Capsule Geology
Claims are underlain by a Permo-Pennsylvanian sedimentary and volcanic rocks near the Denali Fault and were staked over the nose of a large, intense aeromagnetic anomaly.
