Capsule Geology

The Salal South East occurrence is located in the north eastern head waters of Salal Creek, at an elevation of approximately 2150 metres.

Locally, 1 to 20 centimetre thick quartz veins and stock works host disseminated to banded pyrite and molybdenite in a 5 metre wide fracture zone.

In 2008, three grab samples (161815, 161816 and 161817) assayed from 0.069 to 0.400 per cent molybdenite and 1.0 to 3.3 grams per tonne silver (Assessment Report 31091).

In 2007 and 2008, Paget Minerals conducted small exploration programs to confirm past accounts of mineralization on the Salal property. Work included mapping and rock sampling in the Mud Lake and Logan Ridge area in the northern section of the property.

In early 2010, Miocene Metals Ltd. conducted airborne geophysical surveys over the Salal property. In late 2010 and throughout 2012, Miocene Metals Ltd. completed a program of sampling, prospecting, mapping and four diamond drill holes on the Salal property.

For regional geology and a complete property history, see Salal Creek (MINFILE 092JW 005).
