Capsule Geology

The Bonnie occurrence is located 8 kilometres north-northeast of Hazelton immediately west of the Silver Standard mine (093M 049).

The property is underlain by clastic sedimentary rocks (tuffaceous sandstone, greywacke and argillite) of the Middle Jurassic to Lower Cretaceous Bowser Lake Group. These are intruded by granodiorite of the Eocene Babine Intrusions.

Diamond drill hole BON-85-2 intersected a 32-centimetre wide quartz vein within which a 11.7-centimetre section assayed 347.0 grams per tonne silver, 10.3 grams per tonne gold, 8.07 per cent lead, 4.08 per cent zinc and 0.05 per cent copper (Assessment Report 14135). Galena, sphalerite, tetrahedrite, arsenopyrite, siderite and pyrite are present.
