Work History
Staked as Doyle cl (Y90914) in Sep/74 by Amoco Can Pet CL, which performed mapping, geochem sampling and an IP survey in 1975 and drilled one hole (152.7 m) in 1976.
Capsule Geology
Drilling tested a molybdenum soil anomaly associated with subtle IP response. Traces of chalcopyrite and molybdenite were encountered in weak to moderately altered alaskite and monzonite, and grades were only 0.01% Cu and 0.002% MoS2.
