The Rogers Creek (Target I-II) occurrence is located on the southeast side of Rogers Creek, approximately 7 kilometres north-northeast of the creek mouth.
The area is underlain by granodioritic rocks the Miocene Rogers Creek Stock and by sedimentary and volcanic rocks of the Lower Cretaceous Gambier Group.
In 2010, a new zone (Target I-II) of mineralization was found on logging roads between the Target I and Target II occurrences. The zone consists of a hornblende granodiorite with the exception of several occurrences of irregularly-shaped, pegmatitic quartz-feldspar-calcite-epidote bodies. These are cross-cut by rare chlorite-quartz veinlets hosting chalcopyrite and bornite. A sample assayed 8.17 per cent copper, 0.389 gram per tonne gold, 120 grams per tonne silver and 0.022 per cent molybdenum (Assessment Report 33007).
Work History
In 1983, Placer Development completed a program of rock, silt and soil sampling on the area as the Cloud claim. In 1985, Noranda completed a program of geological mapping and rock and soil sampling on the area as the RC 1-2 claims.
During 2007 through 2009, Wallbridge Mining Company completed programs of rock, silt and soil sampling, geological mapping and airborne and ground geophysical surveys on the area as the Roger Creek property.
During 2010 through 2012, Miocene Metals completed programs of rock, silt and soil sampling and airborne geophysical surveys.
During 2013 through 2017, Carube Copper Corp. examined the area as the Rogers Creek property. In 2015, a program of soil sampling was completed on the I and IV zones and a 6 line-kilometre induced polarization survey was completed on the I zone. In 2016, a reconnaissance soil sampling program was performed along a newly build logging road in the area.
