Abstract: Chieftain Hill, near Skukum Creek gold deposit, is underlain by numerous spectacular orange, yellow and red goassans. Stibnite-quartz veins discovered on Chieftain Hill are small and were originally considered to be unrelated to the gossans but exploration in the mid-1980's led to the discovery of quartz-sulphide veins on the lower part of the hill, indicating that the gossanous alteration zones may be related to the mineralization.
