Capsule Geology

The CU showing is 300 metres southwest of Allison Creek, 2.15 kilometres northwest of the creek's confluence with Oelrich Creek.

Pyrite and malachite occur in a section of volcanic siltstone, sandstone and pebble conglomerate of the Upper Triassic Nicola Group (Central belt, Bulletin 69). This mineralization is about 50 metres northeast of the contact with biotite hornblende leucogranite of the middle and Late Cretaceous Allison Creek stocks.

Northair Mines Ltd. completed soil and magnetometer surveys just west of the showing in 1971 and 1972.
