The Dry Lake occurrence is plotted as being located approximately 750 metres east-northeast of the southeast corner of Dry Lake.
Regionally, the area along the Allison Creek valley is underlain mostly by biotite hornblende granite and quartz monzonite of the Upper Triassic to Lower Jurassic Allison Lake pluton. More mafic phases, comprised of granodiorite, diorite and gabbro, are occasionally present within and along the periphery of the intrusion. The north-trending contact with Upper Triassic Nicola Group andesite and basalt lies east of the valley and comes to within a kilometre east of Allison Lake. The pluton is traversed along the east side of the valley by the north-striking Allison fault.
Locally, malachite and azurite occur in biotite hornblende granite and quartz monzonite.
Work History
In 1980, Nufort Resources Inc. collected soil samples in the area immediately west of the occurrence as the Dry and Lake claims.
In 1990, Norsemont Mining Co. Ltd. completed a program of soil sampling and a 26.0 line-kilometre ground electromagnetic survey on the area as the Dry claims.
In 2007, Condorado Operating Co. Ltd. completed a minor program of rock and soil sampling on the area as the Dry Lake property.
During 2010 through 2013, Paul Hoogendoorn and Peter Palikot completed programs of prospecting and geochemical (rock and soil) sampling on the area as the Dry Lake property.
Also, during 2012 through 2015, Colorado Resources Ltd. completed programs of geological mapping, geochemical (rock and soil) sampling and a 6.0 line-kilometre induced polarization survey on the area as the Hit-Aspen Grove property.
