Mineralization is generally weak and consists of pyrite and rare chalcopyrite in intrusive rocks and pyrite, pyrrhotite and rare chalcopyrite in a sedimentary unit. Percussion holes intersected a variety of sedimentary and volcaniclastic rocks which have been intruded by a felsic body, probably granitic, which is strongly altered in one hole.
