Geology of the Elk (Siwash) Project |
|
The Elk property is underlain by Upper Triassic volcanics and sediments of the Nicola Group and by Middle Jurassic granites and granodiorites of the Osprey Lake Batholith. Gold-silver mineralization is hosted primarily by pyritic quartz veins and stringers hosted by altered granite and in some cases volcanic rocks.
