Capsule Geology

The CQ showing is located just south of the contact between the Lower Jurassic Rossland Group (Elise Formation) volcanics and the Early Jurassic Rossland monzonite stock. The Elise Formation in this area has recently been mapped as augite-phyric lapilli tuff and pyroclastic breccia (Unit Je7l, Open File 1991-2).

A "vein" occurs near the contact of a north trending pulaskite dyke. A small cut on this vein near the contact of the dyke assayed 4.80 grams per tonne gold and a trace of silver across 56 centimetres (Assessment Report 24, page 5).
