Work History
Probably first staked as Cap, Peake, etc cl (12781) in Sep/19 by E.W. Jackson, who performed annual trenching until 1934. The showing was mapped and sampled in 1963 by YCGC in conjunction with work on its adjoining Snow cl (79083) staked in 1962, and was restaked as Kem cl (Y15381) in Jun/68 by Klondike EL, and as Ting cl (YA5027) in Jun/76 by Ukon JV (Chevron & Kerr Addison).
Capsule Geology
Four or five parallel quartz-siderite veins are present in a 30 m wide zone that strikes northeast. Individual veins are up to 30 cm wide and are mineralized with chalcopyrite, arsenopyrite, pyrite, galena, sphalerite, fluorite and possibly stibnite. Two samples assayed in 1963 returned 161.1 g/t Ag and 2.1% Cu and 459.4 g/t Ag, 6.8% Zn and 3.4 g/t Au.
