The Klaskino 2 occurrence is located southwest of the end of Klaskino Inlet, at an elevation of approximately 200 metres.

The area is underlain by calcareous siltstone, shale, limestone, conglomerate and breccia of the Upper Triassic Vancouver Group, Parson Bay Formation, and andesitic to basaltic volcanics of the Karmutsen Formation. These sediments have been intruded by granodiorite of the Jurassic Island Plutonic Suite.

Locally, jointed and fractured silicified dark volcanics host sulphide mineralization and are associated with quartz-calcite veins and epidote alteration. In 2012, two grab samples, RF209 and RF308, assayed greater than 1 per cent copper with 7.5 and 8.1 grams per tonne silver respectively (Assessment Report 33532).

Work History

In 1982, BP Minerals staked the KI claims and completed programs of geological mapping and geochemical surveys on the area. During 2008 through 2012, V.J. Bruddick completed programs of prospecting, geological mapping and geochemical sampling on the Klaskino 1-6 claims. In 2014, Homegold Resources Ltd. completed an air photo geological interpretation program on the area as the Kluska 2 claim. The following year, North Island Exploration completed a minor program of prospecting and geological mapping on the area as the Klaskino 5-6 claims. In 2019, First Geolas Consulting completed a minor program of prospecting and rock sampling on the area as the Nic property.
