Little Wonder Group (Locality 60)

References: Annual Report of the Minister of Mines, British Columbia, 1926, 1928,
and 1981.

The Little Wonder group of eighteen claims is on the east side of Bear
river and adjoins and lies north of the Ore Mountain group. The claims
are traversed by the contact between volcanic and sedimentary rocks of
the Hazelton group near the northern border of a belt of dykes.

The mineral deposits are fracture zones mineralized with quartz,
galena, sphalerite, pyrite, chalcopyrite, and tetrahedrite. One body has
been traced for several hundred feet and is up to 64 feet wide. Three other
bodies, one of which is 6 to 12 feet wide, have been traced for short dis-
tances.

Lucky Date Group (Locality 62)

Reference: Annual Report of the Minister of Mines, British Columbia, 1928, 1930,
and 1981.

The Lucky Date group of claims is at the head of the north fork of
Bitter creek. The main vein has been traced for several hundred feet, is
up to 3 feet wide, and consists of pyrite and tetrahedrite in quartz gangue.
Another quartz vein is up to 24 feet wide and contains galena, sphalerite,
and pyrite.

Lucky Jim Group (Locality 19)
Reference: Annual Report of the Minister of Mines, British Columbia, 1929.

The Lucky Jim group of claims is on the west side of American creek
and adjoins the Mountain Boy group. A quartz-jasper-barite vein about
7 feet wide contains galena, chalcopyrite, bornite, and tetrahedrite. A
silicified zone about 13 feet wide contains chalcopyrite and bornite.

M. C. Group (Loeality 54)

References: Annual Report of the Minister of Mines, British Columbia, 1921, 1922,
and 1923.

The M.C. group of claims is on Bear River ridge opposite the mouth of
Bitter creek. A shear zone in volcanic rocks crosses the crest of the ridge
and is mineralized with pyrite, chalcocite, and other sulphides. A quartz
vein containing chalcocite is exposed about 200 yards south.

Marmot Consolidated Mines, Limited, controls the Wire Gold, Craw-
ford, Dwyer, and Patricia groups lying in the vicinity of the forks of Mar-
mot river. The Wire Gold group is north of Marmot river below the forks
and on it a quartz-pyrite vein in granite has been followed for 50 feet by
an adit. The Crawford, Patricia, and Dwyer groups are between the north
and south forks of Marmot river. On the Crawford group there are several
