Capsule Geology

The Zip occurrence is located just north of Matetlo Creek about 75 kilometres north-northwest of the community of Germansen Landing.

At the showing, highly fractured, grey to maroon tuffs of the Triassic to Jurassic Takla Group host pervasive quartz-carbonate veins up to 2 centimetres in width. Minor malachite staining is noted in some spots. A geochemical analysis of a sample yielded negligible results for gold, silver and copper (Open File 1993-2, Map Number 6).

In 1987, on behalf of Skylark Resources Ltd., geological mapping, prospecting, silt (4), soil (125) and rock chip (19) sampling was carried out on the Dolly 1, 2 claims which cover the Zip, Stranger (094C 015), Mercury 1 (094C 041) and Mercury 2 (094C 042) showings.
