Work History
Staked as Hec 1-40 (YA31380) & Tor cl 1-154 (YA31533) in Aug/78 by N. Burmaister and optioned briefly by Matson Creek Project (Precambrian Shield Resources Ltd, Numac Oil & Gas Ltd and Bethlehem Copper Corporation), which performed mapping and geochem sampling later in the year.
Restaked by contract stakers as the Matson 1-30 cl (YB41658) in Mar/93.
Capsule Geology
The original Hec and Tor claims were staked for uranium potential on the flank of a basin occupied by Late Cretaceous Carmacks Group basalt and sedimentary rocks.
