The Ellen property is located 42 kilometres east of Hazelton, on the northwest portion of Netalzul Mountain.

The property is underlain by hornfelsed Middle Jurassic to Lower Cretaceous Bowser Lake Group siltstones, sandstones and greywackes intruded by granodiorite of the Late Cretaceous Bulkley Intrusions which have hornfelsed the Bowser Lake rocks near the contacts. Aplite dikes cut all rock types.

Numerous veins, sheeted veins and stockworks containing quartz, pyrite, tetrahedrite, chalcopyrite and galena cut the granitic rocks. Quartz veins carrying galena and arsenopyrite are common in the metasedimentary rocks. The veins are generally lenticular and discontinuous. Argillic and propylitic alteration is evident in granitic rocks adjacent to some of the veins. Sericite and chlorite are developed after biotite and hornblende and iron carbonate is commonly associated with some veins.

A 1-metre wide quartz vein cutting granodiorite strikes 025 degrees and dips 70 degrees southeast. This vein assayed 1.0 gram per tonne gold and 340.5 grams per tonne silver across 81 centimetres (Assessment Report 15186). Grab samples assay up to 2614.7 grams per tonne silver and 3.150 grams per tonne gold (Assessment Report 15186). Quartz veins carrying pyrite and molybdenite are common throughout the intrusive.

Work History

In 1985, initial investigation of the Netalzul property by Atna Resource consisted of prospecting and silt sampling of Netalzul Creek. Twenty-seven rock grab and chip samples are documented.

In 2009, a total of 48 rock samples, 6 silt samples, and 20 soil samples were taken on the Nat group of claims on behalf of Chris Warren, Lorne Warren and CJL Enterprises. Only 22 rock samples and the 6 silt samples were assayed. The most interesting assay came from sample NATMR006 near the Daisy showing (093M 016). A number of samples were taken in the area of the Ellen showing at the time.

In 2012, some soil sampling grids were completed on the Silver Vista Property of Amarc Resources (Assessment Report 34084). While the Ellen showing was not part of the Silver Vista property the claim that contained the Ellen was surrounded by the Silver Vista property. In 2012, an airborne magnetic survey was flown over the Silver Vista claim block on behalf of Amarc Resources for a total of 4729 line-kilometre at a spacing of 200 metres (Assessment Report 33499). The airborne survey included the Ellen area.
