Capsule Geology

The LOOKOUT MOUNTAIN showing is located on the OKA 4 claim on the west side of Lookout Mountain, approximately 8 kilometres northwest of Peachland.

This area is underlain by Triassic-Jurassic Nicola Group andesite with lesser interbedded hornfelsed siltstone and skarn. The Nicola Group rocks form a large northwest-southeast trending pendant which is underlain and intruded by granodiorite and diorite of the Early Jurassic Pennask Batholith.

A prospecting program in 1986 located mineralization approximately 1 kilometre north of the skarn showings at the CAP (082ENW026) and BLUEBELL (082ENW027) occurrences. An assay of a silicified volcanic rock containing blebs of arsenopyrite assayed 15.2 grams per tonne gold, 1.37 grams per tonne silver and 8.46 per cent arsenic (Assessment Report 15834).
