Capsule Geology

The Shulaps gold showing is on Hog Creek northeast of its confluence with Marshall Creek. The occurrence is within quartzite, phyllite, argillite and limestone of the Permian to Middle Jurassic Bridge River Complex (Group) that are structurally interleaved with serpentinized ultramafic rocks of the Shulaps ultramafic complex. These rocks are cut by dykes of Tertiary Rexmount porphyritic dacite.

Most of the quartz of the showing is gossanous and contains pyrite and pyrrhotite. In 1925, a sample assayed 44.57 grams per tonne gold and 6.8 grams per tonne silver (Minister of Mines Annual Report 1925, page 174).
