Camalachie Claim (Locality 133)
Reference: Annual Report of the Minister of Mines, British Columbia, 1918.

The Camalachie claim is north of Trout creek and adjoins and lies
north of the Moose group. A quartz vein up to 6 feet wide, which has been
traced for 300 feet, occurs along the hanging-wall of a diorite dyke. The
vein is reported to contain silver.

Canyon Claim (Locality 149)
Reference: Annual Report of the Minister of Mines, British Columbia, 1924.

The Canyon claim is east of Kitsault river, 14 miles from Alice Arm,
and adjoins and lies north of the Homeguard group. The mineral showing
consists of a quartz vein in a shear zone 8 feet wide. The vein is mineralized
locally with pyrite, chalcopyrite, and galena.

Cape Nome Group
References: Annual Report of the Minister of Mines, British Columbia, 1918 and 1919.

On the Cape Nome group of three mineral claims there are several
parallel quartz veins in argillite in a zone 6 feet wide. Pyrite and sphalerite
have been found in the veins but are rare.

Caribou Fraction Group (Locality 184)
Reference: Annual Report of the Minister of Mines, British Columbia, 1911.

The Caribou Fraction group of three mineral claims is on the western
shore of Alice arm 1,000 feet south of the town. The deposit is in argillite
and consists of a quartz vein up to 1 foot wide which contains very small
shoots of silver ore. ’

Casey Group (Locality 179)

Reference: Annual Report of the Minister of Mines, British Columbia, 1916.

The mineral showings on the Casey group are a few hundred feet north
of Illiance river near its mouth. The mineral deposit is a quartz-barite
vein up to 4 feet wide mineralized with pyrite and galena.

Chance Group (Locality 131)

Sum. Rept. 1928, pt. A.

The Chance group of six mineral claims is north of Trout creek which
flows into Kitsault river 19 miles from Alice Arm. The Trout Creek trail
which branches off the Kitsault trail at the mouth of Trout creek passes by
the Chance cabins.

The property prior to 1923 was known as the Last Chance group and
then consisted of four mineral claims. It was bonded in 1919 by H. B.
Price who did some diamond drilling. Clothier (Annual Report for 1923,
page 59) reports that the information revealed by the horizontal drill holes
was encouraging but that the other holes failed to locate the ore-body.
The diamond drilling was done from a single station.
