Work History
Staked as the Alice cl (83196) in 1963 by C. Poli and optioned to Central McQuesten ML (a subsidiary of Peso Silver ML), which explored by grid soil sampling, road construction and bulldozer trenching in 1963-64.
Capsule Geology
Galena float assaying 40.3% Pb and 1556.5 g/t Ag was found in an area of quartzite which could be a western extension of the Mississippian Keno Hill quartzite formation. Bulldozing defined a poorly mineralized northeast trending vein fault.
