Work History
Staked as the Tom cl (Y52167) by Dawson Range Joint Venture (Straus E Inc, Martin Marietta Corp, Molybdenum Corp of America, Trojan Cons. M, and Great Plains Dev. C of Can. L) in May/70 following reconnaissance geochemistry in 1969. Explored by grid soil sampling and geological mapping in Aug/70.
Capsule Geology
The geological setting is complex and includes Paleozoic? metasedimentary rocks and Lower Cretaceous Mt Nansen volcanics intruded by Cretacesous quartz monzonite and later by Tertiary alaskite. Soil sampling located several weak molybdenum anomalies. Minor molybdenite was noted in alaskite float.
