Work History
Staked as Yellow & PL cl (YA97383) in May/87 by Harjay ECL, which performed hand trenching later in the year.
Capsule Geology
Pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite occur as fracture fillings and massive clots within a 15 m wide shear zone which cuts an Upper Triassic ultramafic sill exposed in the creek bank. Pyrrhotie is disseminated in the walls of the shear zone. Specimens gave low nickel and PGE values.
