Location and accuracy | This prospect is at an elevation of about 3500 feet in a pass northwest of a tributary to Mauneluk River. It is in the N1/2 of sec. 22, T. 21 N., R. 13 E., of the Kateel River Meridian. The location is accurate to within 1000 ft. The site corresponds to locality 55 of Grybeck and Nelson (1981). |
Geologic descriptionThe deposit consists of sulfide-bearing carbonates, probably the Skajit Limestone (Nelson and Grybeck, 1980). More than forty, 1 to 5 cm bands of galena and sphalerite with copper and silver values were intersected in 122 m of diamond drill hole. There was considerable staking in the area and limited diamond drilling in 1976. | |
