Work History

Staked in Aug/86 as Ruby cl (YA95666) by United Keno Hill ML, which performed mapping and geochem sampling in 1987, and as Live cl (YA95657) by Silverquest Res Ltd, which conducted geological and geochemical surveys in 1986. United Keno Hill soil sampled and mapped in 1989.

Capsule Geology

The claims cover an Eocene granodiorite plug which has intruded biotite schist ('Kluane Schist'). The claims were staked to cover silt geochemical anomalies indicated by a government survey.
