Capsule Geology

The Elizabeth occurrence is located near the head of the east branch of Etschitka Creek, 80 kilometres northwest of the community of Germansen Landing (Geological Survey of Canada Memoir 274, page 223).

The showing is a shear zone in granodiorite and quartz diorite of the Early Jurassic Hogem Plutonic Suite. Abundant quartz and quartz-carbonate veins in two intersecting sets are reported (Geological Survey of Canada Memoir 274, page 223). One vein is reported to have provided fairly consistent, but low, assays in gold and silver (Geological Survey of Canada Memoir 274, page 223).
