Capsule

Work History

Staked as part of 536 Ray cl (97882) in Jan/66 by Nordex EL and explored by geochem later in the year. Restaked as Toad 1-80 cl (Y36528) in Aug/69 by International M Services L for Prado EL and explored by grid soil sampling and mapping in 1970.

Capsule Geology

The Nordex work was directed toward silver-lead vein targets and Prado's work toward porphyry targets. The claims are mainly underlain by Klotassin granodiorite with roof pendants of Paleozoic? metamorphic rocks. Nothing of interest was found by either program.
