Capsule Geology

The area of the PL 6 showing is underlain by Upper Triassic rocks of the Stuhini group consisting argillite and wacke, augite and feldspar porphyry flows and agglomerate and tuff.

Two samples were collected from narrow quartz-pyrrhotite veins that strike northerly and dip moderately towards the west. Sample 28679, taken from a 5 centimetre wide vein hosted within argillite yielded 65 grams per tonne silver, 0.24 per cent lead, 0.11 per cent zinc and 0.097 per cent arsenic; sample 28680, taken from a similar vein hosted within andesitic tuff, yielded 23 grams per tonne silver, 0.12 per cent lead, 0.1200 per cent zinc and 0.021 per cent arsenic (Assessment Report 20774). Sample 28679 is 250 metres west of sample 28680.

Work History

In 1989, consolidated Goldwest Resources Ltd. carried out one day of reconnaissance exploration on the Anuk River East claim group (including claims PL-4, 5 and 6), taking 6 stream silt samples and 24 rock samples. Several narrow quartz-carbonate veins with poddy sulphides were found on the northern part of the PL-6 claim

In 1990, Consolidated Goldwest Resources Ltd. carried out limited geological mapping, prospecting, soil sampling and ground geophysical surveys over the northeastern portion of the Anuk River East property group (including claims Pup 6 and 7; PL-4, 5 and 6).
