Work History
Staked as SA & Swede cl (YA30321) in May/78 by Queenstake Res L & Canada Tungsten Mg Corp L, which performed reconnaissance geochem surveys later in the year.
Restaked as Swede cl (YA83186) by R. Riepe in Jul/86 and transferred to Lone Jack Res L, then to Grandex Res L in Dec/86.
In March/94, property was restaked within larger MR claim block (1-130) (YB42744) by R. Wondga. Wondga also staked RC cl (1-104) (YB42874) 3 km to the west at the same time.
Capsule Geology
The claims are underlain by a sequence of schist, phyllite and quartzite of uncertain age. The geochemical survey outlined a number of tungsten, silver, tin and gold anomalies.
