Depositional Setting of Silver-Rich Quartz-Sulphate-Carbonate Deposits of the Upper Kitsault River Area, Northwest British Columbia
The Upper Kitsault River area lies approximately 23 to 30 km north of Alice Arm, in the Skeena Mining Division, British Columbia. Mineral occurrences are of three principal types: copper and gold-rich quartz-chlorite stockwork deposits, silver-rich quartz-sulphate-carbonate deposits; and molybdenum-rich quartz stockwork deposits (Alldrick et al., 1987). The first two types are hosted by lower J...
متن کاملTracking the Eskay Rift through Northern British Columbia - Geology and Mineral Occurrences of the Upper Iskut River Area
The Eskay Creek gold-silver mine, located in northwest British Columbia, is an unusually high-grade ore deposit. The mining industry continues to spend more than $2 million each year on exploration for similar deposits in the area. The geologic setting at the minesite is well studied, but large tracts in north-central British Columbia require more detailed surveys to determine if favourable sit...

The Eskay Creek gold-silver mine, located in northwest British Columbia, is the highest-grade precious-metal volcanogenic massive sulphide deposit in the world. The mining industry continues to spend more than $2 million each year on exploration for similar deposits in the area. The geologic setting at the minesite is well studied, but large tracts in north-central British Columbia require more...
متن کاملGeology, Mineralization and Lithogeochemistry of the Stuart Lake Area, Central British Columbia
Economic mineral deposits found in oceanic terranes include: mesothermal gold-quartz veins, Cyprus-type massive sulphide, podiform chromite. platinum or cobalt associated with nickel sulphides, as well as asbestos and jade deposits. These are rither hosted by, or otherwise closely associated with oceanic crustal or mantle lithologies. Mesothermal gold-quartz veins and related placers are histor...
متن کاملMineral Resource Estimation: an Evaluation of Responses’ from Northeast British Columbia
The Mineral Potential Project is an initiative that provides predictions of resource abundance in the province and has been described by Kilby (1995). Ian this project, resource assessment is carried out on specified tracts of land, referred to as mineral assessment tracts. These tracts are generalizations of contiguous geological tracts that share a common tectonic history and metallogeny and ...
