Capsule Geology

The Two Wheel Steve occurrence is located at an elevation of approximately 1840 metres on a roughly east-west–trending ridge, northeast of Moosevale Creek and approximately 6.5 kilometres northeast of the creeks’ junction with the Sustut River.

The area is underlain by Upper Triassic Savage Mountain Formation (Takla Group) volcanics. These are bounded by the Moose Valley fault to the west and by the north-northwest–trending Ingenika fault to the east. A Lower Jurassic quartz monzodiorite stock lies to the north of the occurrence.

Locally, vesicular basaltic andesite with a large, coarse-grained quartz vein hosts malachite and hematite.

Work History

In 2015, High Power Exploration conducted property wide, broadly spaced geochemical sampling and reconnaissance style mapping and prospecting on key target areas on their large Menard property.

In 2021, Wedgemount Resources Corp. completed a program of geochemical (rock and soil) sampling and spectral analysis on the area as the regionally extensive Cookie property. A grab sample (D704063) assayed 0.89 per cent copper, 27.3 grams per tonne silver and 0.41 gram per tonne gold (Assessment Report 40029).
