Capsule Geology

The Jill area is underlain by Lower to Middle Jurassic volcanic rocks of the Hazelton Group. The volcanics are comprised mainly of andesite, andesitic flows, tuff and breccia. The volcanics are intruded by a Jurassic Topley Intrusion comprised of granodiorite and associated quartz-feldspar porphyry dikes. Pyrite and traces of chalcopyrite occur as disseminations in the volcanics and the intrusion as well as in veins associated with the intrusion.

The FG group of 88 claims was held in 1969 by Bethlehem Copper Corporation Ltd. Work during the year included magnetometer, induced polarization, and geochemical soil surveys. Grid line work covered an area north from the Jill area (093L 242) and south to FG (093L 213)

In 2012, an aeromagnetic program was conducted over the Flute and Lennac properties by Riverside Resources (BC) Inc. The total covered area was 813 square kilometres and the total survey line coverage was 4,444 line kilometres (Assessment Report 33032, 33707F). The Jill occurrence was covered by this survey. A report on the survey by Riverside Resources (BC) Inc is found in Appendix D of Assessment Report 33032. However, maps showing the Total Magnetic Intensity and First Vertical Derivative of TMI are found in Assessment Report 33707F.

During the 2013 field program on Altiplano Minerals Ltd.’s GD Property in central British Columbia, six rock samples and 186 soil samples were collected, which have outlined and further expanded existing copper, gold, and molybdenite anomalies. The soil lines were in the vicinity of the Jill showing 093L 242).

Refer to Tachi (093L 144) for further details of the GD property of which the Jill was part of starting in about 2010.

Refer also to FG (093L 213) for related details of 1969 work.

Refer also to Lennac property occurrences Thezar 81 (East) for information on the 2012 airborne geophysics survey.
