Work History
This is the southernmost of four separate blocks of Ruby cl (YA95693) staked in Aug/86 by United Keno Hill ML. United Keno Hill performed mapping and soil sampling in 1989. Restaked by J.P. Ross as Joy cl (YB27811) in Aug/90.
Capsule Geology
The claims were staked to cover gold silt anomalies following a government regional geochemical survey and are underlain by cordierite-biotite schist of probable Paleozoic age. A zone of anomalous float containing up to 150 ppb Au coincides with a topographic lineament which is the trace of a north-striking thrust fault. The anomalous float consists of scorodite-stained breccia formed of smoky quartz fragments in a hematite-limonite matrix.
