Capsule Geology

The Abandon showing occurs at the intersection of two major faults and consists of a breccia zone with argillaceous and intermediate to mafic volcanic fragments with a quartz-carbonate-sulphide-graphite matrix. Recent mapping has defined this as part of the Upper Triassic Stuhine Group. Sulphides include galena, sphalerite and arsenopyrite. A grab sample from this showing yielded 1390.2 grams per tonne silver and contained the best silver values found to 1988 (Assessment Report 18803).
