Capsule Geology

Location of this showing as described in Assessment Report 4234, lies between Deadwood and Motherlode creeks. On the Gold Bug, 1 kilometre to the east, an adit symbol is shown on the map in the report.

The area is covered by Eocene andesite and trachy-andesite (Marron Formation, Penticton Group) which overlie Paleozoic sediments (Knob Hill Group), which are exposed east of a north-trending fault. The sediments consist of sharpstone conglomerate, chert and green argillites. Scattered malachite occurs in the andesite.
