Capsule Geology

The Moraine occurrence is located near the north end of a moraine, approximately 6 kilometres south-southeast of Johanson Lake (Property File - Canadian Superior Exploration Limited, Maps from Company Files, c. 1973).

The regional geology is similar to that of the Independence (094D 028) occurrence, which lies approximately 3 kilometres to the south southeast.

The Moraine occurrence lies near the contact between an unnamed, Early Jurassic quartz diorite stock and Upper Triassic Takla Group volcanics. These rocks lie just to the east of the north striking Dortatelle fault. Copper mineralization occurs near a strong pyritic zone.

Refer to Kliyul for related geological and work history information.
