Capsule Geology

The BR 886 occurrence is located 4.4 kilometres southeast of Moosehorn Lake, about 250 kilometres northwest of the community of Germansen Landing.

The BR 886 showing area is underlain by marine sedimentary and volcanic (andesite) rock of the Lower-Middle Jurassic Hazelton Group. Rocks of the Upper Triassic Stuhini Group occur to the southwest. Devonian-Permian Asitka Group crystalline limestones are the oldest rocks exposed in the region.

In 2004, Stealth Minerals Ltd. collected several samples from one area of their Breccia claims. A sample of quartz with pyrite and chalcocite assayed 55.7 grams per tonne silver, 0.15 gram per tonne gold, 0.18 per cent lead and greater than 1 per cent copper (Assessment Report 27635).

Refer to Har (094E 053), located 4.9 kilometres south, for detail of the Breccia-Claw area work history.
