Capsule Geology

The Dick occurrence is located on the northern slopes of Spider Peak, at an elevation of approximately 950 metres.

The area is underlain by grey to black, locally organic-rich, pyritic, slaty argillite intercalated with well-bedded siltstone, all assigned to the Early and Middle Jurassic Ladner Group.

Locally, a quartz vein hosts pyrite, pyrrhotite and/or arsenopyrite mineralization.

In 1984, a rock sample (RCNE3-09) assayed 1.32 grams per tonne gold, while soil samples collected near the vein yielded values from 1.69 to 2.04 grams per tonne gold (Assessment Report 13221).

In 1984, Aquarius Resources completed programs of soil and rock sampling program on the area as the Dick claim. During 1996 through 1998, Hillsbar Gold completed a program of geological mapping and rock, silt and soil sampling on the area as the Harry claim.
