Beveley

The road-accessible Beveley Property is a developed prospect located on the north shore of the Osilinka river 28.5 kilometers northwest of Germansen Landing.

Inferred reserves (historical) are 2,721,300 tonnes grading 36.3 g/t Ag and 3.66% Pb/Zn. Best assay: 2095 g/t Ag (on Gael showing)

The following is from MINFILE records 094C 023 & 094C 105:

Several mineralized zones are associated with a dolomite breccia within a surface area of 1500 by 500 metres. The dolomite breccia unit is 40–50 metres thick, is overlain by a limy argillite 20–40 metres thick and underlain by a phyllite unit 200 metres thick.

The original showings were discovered in 1946 by Alex Leggatt of Cominco at an elevation of 1,410 metres. Exploration on the property from 1949 to 1951 consisted of 2,400 metres of trenching and 12 short diamond drillholes. Cominco stopped exploration in 1951 and dropped the property in 1962. The property was optioned to Donna Mines in 1967 by E.D. Vinnedge & Associates before being dropped again in 1969. During this time, an access road from Tenakihi Creek to a base camp at 1,500 metres elevation was completed, along with geological and geophysical surveys of the area. This work was followed up by 5,700 metres of bulldozer and backhoe trenching, a 300 metre adit and three diamond-drill holes totalling 150 metres. As a result of this work, nine zones of mineralization were outlined with exposed discontinuous mineralization over a length of about 1,000 metres.

Drilling during 1978-79 by Suzie Mining Explorations encountered an intersection of approximately 10 metres of 4.47 per cent Pb-Zn and 100.1 grams per tonne Ag near the surface. In C zone, hole 78-33, intersected 10.5 metres of 3.62 per cent Pb-Zn and 17.1 grams per tonne Ag.

Drill indicated reserves of the Bullseye zone are 99,781 tonnes grading 1.42% lead, 2.24% zinc and 36.3 g/t silver. Inferred reserves are 2,721,300 tonnes grading 36.3 g/t Ag and 3.66% Pb/Zn.
