Capsule Geology

The Ella Rose occurrence is located approximately 20 kilometres east of the Blue River and 15 kilometres north of Gallic Lake, about 130 kilometres north of the community of Dease Lake.

A 20 metre wide zone of vuggy, fine-grained quartz hosts blebs of chalcopyrite, chalcocite, galena and brown sphalerite. Mineralization occurs within a broader zone of dark dolomitic breccia, within pale grey Lower Cambrian limestone of the Rosella Formation (Atan Group), adjacent to a major fault contact with the Cambrian-Ordovician Kechika Group shales.
