Work History
Staked as Arby cl (YA95681) in Dec/86 by G. Mogensen, who performed bulldozer trenching in 1987 in conjunction with placer mining. W. Zikos tied on Greg cl (YA97738) to the west in Jun/87. Reed Creek JV (All-North Res L, Chevron Mls Ltd & Fleck Res L) tied on Valley cl (YA97250) to the east and west in May/87 and explored with geochem sampling later in the year. Ike cl (YA97165) were added to the south in May/87 by G. Mogensen.
Restaked as NJ 1-8 (YB36267), BC 1-4 (YB36275) and FRM 1-7 cl (YB36945) in Jul/92 by R.A. McIntosh and F. Ellis, who also staked KC 1-7 cl (YB36260) 2.5 km to the west in the same month.
Capsule Geology
The claims are apparently underlain by propylitically altered mafic volcanic rocks of the Permo-Pennsylvanian Station Creek Formation.
