Work History
Discovered by the GSC in 1965 and staked as MYN cl (YA84096) in Jul/84 by G. Freibergs.
Capsule Geology
Disseminated pyrrhotite, arsenopyrite, chalcopyrite and molybdenite occur in a 15 m wide zone that has developed in a sequence of Devono-Mississippian quartzite and argillite at the contact of a Cretaceous porphyritic quartz monzonite stock.
