The Claw occurrence is located on a ridge crest about 5.5 kilometres north of Haha Creek and approximately 57 kilometres northwest of the community of Germansen Landing.

At the showing, malachite staining occurs with massive crystalline specularite and magnetite in a vein 15 centimetres wide found in rubble and subcrop on a ridge top. The ridge is underlain by monzonite of the Early Jurassic Hogem Plutonic Suite.

In 1991, a sample taken at this location assayed 0.115 gram per tonne gold and 0.113 per cent copper (Open File 1992-11, Map Number 27). The rock is reported to be ankerite altered.

Work History

In 2012, Thane Minerals Inc. carried out exploration at multiple areas on the Cathedral property including the Tenakihi (094C 071), Link (094C 123), Osilinka (094C 050), Cathedral (094C 109, 181), Gail (094C 72, 133), Cirque (093N 093), and Lake (094C 188) zones. Exploration consisted of silt sampling, soil and talus fine sampling (contour and gridded), rock sampling, and geological mapping. A total of 36 silt samples, 785 soil and talus fine samples, and 749 rock samples were collected. Approximately 1525 hectares were geologically mapped at 1:10,000 scale. Analyses of soil and talus fine samples and selected rock and silt samples have been carried out by x-ray fluorescence (XRF).

In 2020, Interra Copper Corp. completed a program of geological mapping, geochemical (rock, soil and stream sediment) sampling and a 14.0 line-kilometre induced polarization survey on the area as the Thane property.
