Capsule Geology

The area of the View zone is underlain by strata of the Upper Triassic Stuhini Group intruded by Early Jurassic quartz dioritic and Jurassic to Tertiary felsitic intrusions.

The View zone contains disseminated and fracture controlled chalcopyrite associated with biotite-magnetite alteration in syenite and alkali granite porphyries over an area of 600 by 650 metres. Alteration coincides closely with an airborne magnetic high. Rock chip samples yielded copper and values up to 2.3 per cent (Assessment Report 29568).

Drilling in the North More area intersected weak mineralization. The View Zone (part of the North More area) was tested by three drill holes in 2007.

The 2019 copper-in-soil anomaly in the View showing area is 1000 metres in length with individual soil results up to 2630 parts per million copper with 9 samples being greater than 500 parts per million copper (Golden Ridge Resources Ltd., Press Release January 16, 2020).

Work History.

Paget Minerals Corp conducted work on the Ball Creek property from 2005 to 2011. Paget's North More area is encompassed by the Ball Creek property and included the View, Canyon (Dago) (104G 120) and South zones. Also see Mary (104G 018) for further related details and a common work history.

In 2019, Golden Ridge Resources Ltd collected 884 total soil samples and 2 rock samples on their More Creek Zone which encompassed 3 MINFILE occurrences including View (104G 258), South (104G 259) and Dago (104G 120). The results showed several high tenor copper-in-soil anomalies (Anomalies A-E). The View showing is located within the Anomaly C geochemical anomaly and the South showing is located within the Anomaly A geochemical anomaly.

Also see Mary (Main) (104G 018) for related details and a common work history.
