Capsule Geology

The Cycle showing is 2.35 kilometres northwest of the south end of Harmon Lake and 8.5 kilometres northwest of Aspen Grove.

The showing is hosted in a sequence of andesitic flows and tuffs of the Upper Triassic Nicola Group. The sequence strikes northwest and dips northeast. Mineralization occurs in a porphyritic amygdaloidal lava with prominent feldspar phenocrysts. The amygdaloidal infillings are coated with chalcocite.

The showing was trenched and drilled some time before 1979. Redlands Resources Ltd. soil sampled the occurrence in 1979.
