LonePine Project

Location
The Lone Pine Property consists of seven mineral claims covering 1051 hectares, approximately 15 kilometers north-northwest of Houston, BC; situated in the Omineca Mining Division.The Property area extends over several molybdenum showings including:
  • Quartz Breccia
  • Alaskite Zone
  • Mineral Hill
  • Granby.
These are documented in assessment and government reports (Minfile Nos. 093L 027, and 093L 028).

Geological Description
The Property is underlain primarily by andesitic to rhyolitic flows, and breccias of the Lower Jurassic Hazelton Group volcanics of the Telkwa Formation, with some sedimentary rocks of the Upper Jurassic Bowser Group being present in discrete locales.

All the aforementioned rocks are altered or hornfelsed, proximal to the contacts of Cretaceous Bulkley Intrusions that are noted to occur in the southern and western portions of the Property. Four distinct Bulkley intrusive phases have been mapped locally and consist of dacite, porphyritic granite, alaskite, and fine-grained monzonite.

While galena/pyrite/chalcopyrite vein style mineralization with high silver, and some gold, or similar chalcopyrite/pyrite copper-silver vein mineralization first attracted the attention of early explorers, the Property has long been thought to be an ideal setting for porphyry style molybdenum/copper mineralization.
