Work History
Staked as Cat cl (Y83204) in Aug/74 by B. Poulin and associates, who restaked as Reg cl (YA35684) in Nov/78 and transferred these to a private company, Klondike Silver ML, which explored with trenching in 1979 and 1980. Terra Mg & EL performed mapping and geochem sampling in 1981 under an option. The property was optioned in 1985 by United Keno Hill ML.
Capsule Geology
Traces of galena and sphalerite occur in quartz veins cutting the Cassiar Batholith. They are associated with pyritic alteration zones. A selected specimen assayed 1.37 g/t Ag, 0.3% Pb and 0.06% Zn.
