Capsule Geology

The Mike (Devil 10) occurrence is located in the southern head waters of Mike Creek, a tributary of Stutell Creek and approximately 8.7 kilometres southeast of Bisson Lake.

The area is underlain by granite and granodiorite of the Jurassic Nelson Plutonic suite.

Locally, a fractured, medium- grained granite adjacent to a lamprophyre (minette) dike with minor quartz veinlets hosts trace pyrite and minor limonite.

In 1984, a rock sample (MR-14) assayed 30.0 grams per tonne silver (Assessment Report 13061). In 2007, a rock sample (DVLR-161) assayed 0.464 per cent lead, 0.268 per cent zinc, 0.31 gram per tonne gold and greater than 100 grams per tonne silver (Assessment Report 29887).

In 1984, Val d’Or Explorations completed a program of rock and silt sampling and geological mapping on the area as the Mike 1-5 claims. During 2007 through 2009, Kootenay Gold completed programs of prospecting and geochemical sampling the area as the Devil property.
