The H-2 (LL-12) occurrence is located north of the Tsolum River and south of Lost Lake.
The area is underlain by basaltic volcanic rocks of the Triassic Karmutsen Formation (Vancouver Group).
Locally, amygdaloidal basalt with variable (0.1 to 5 per cent by volume) quartz-calcite-chlorite-pyrolusite alteration, sparse disseminated and fracture filling pyrite-pyrrhotite, and trace amounts of chalcopyrite, arsenopyrite and malachite. The area is structurally dominated by a regional fault that strikes northwest, parallel to the northeast shore of Lost Lake. The northwest trending fault contains minor amounts (0.1 to 1 per cent) carbonate-quartz veining. There is also localized northwest trending faulting with a steep southwest dip along the Tsolum River.
In 1986, samples (1C and 1A) yielded 0.439 and 0.392 per cent copper with 1.6 and 1.4 grams per tonne silver (Kikauka, A. (2012-07-03): NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Harmony Property).
In 2012, a sample (164655) of pyrrhotite-chalcopyrite-magnetite float, taken from an area located approximately 1.5 to 2.0 kilometres northwest near the south bank of the Tsolum River, assayed 0.230 per cent copper and 3.8 grams per tonne silver (Kikauka, A. (2012-07-03): NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Harmony Property).
Work History
During 1986 through 1993, Westmin Resources completed programs of prospecting, geological mapping, geochemical sampling and airborne and ground geophysical surveys on the area as the Ideal 1-9 and Harmony claims.
In 2012, Altamont Exploration completed a program of geological mapping and rock, silt and soil sampling. In 2016, Whitewater Capitol Corp. completed a program of geochemical (rock, soil and stream sediment) sampling on the area.
In 2020, Blanton Resources Corp. completed a program of prospecting, geological mapping and geochemical (rock, soil and stream sediment) sampling on the area as the Isla property.
