Capsule Geology

The Al 9 occurrence is located about 1.5 kilometres east of the Sheslay River, 7.5 kilometres south of the summit of Kaketsa Mountain, approximately 50 kilometres west-northwest of the community of Telegraph Creek.

Porphyritic and massive basalt of the Upper Triassic Stuhini Group underlie the showing. Four quartz veins related to north trending fault zones are locally malachite stained. One vein is 1.2 metres wide; the others are 10 to 15 centimetres wide. Rock samples from the veins analysed up to 0.14 per cent copper and 0.54 gram per tonne gold (Assessment Report 20128).

In 1990, A. McMillan conducted prospecting and collected 40 soil samples for analyses.

In 2018, Garibaldi Resource Ltd collected a total of 29 soil samples and 1 rock sample were collected from the AL-9 area. Some mapping was also completed. The discovery veins were not observed during the 2018 visit. One soil sample assayed greater than 300 ppm copper and one rock sample contained 0.0408 per cent copper (Assessment Report 37794). Trace chalcopyrite mineralization and trace malachite staining were observed in the field.
