“Quartz veins are numerous in all of the seven groups included in this prop- erty, but the outstanding favorable feature is the large amount of quartz gold found in the small creeks which either cross or find their source in this ground.’’ In the map which accompanies this brochure the location of the groups may be noted. GROUP ONE—This is the largest single holding of the company, covering an area more than three miles in lateral extent. A crew is at present engaged in development work and some excellent showings are reported to have been disclosed. Regarding this property Mr. Wells states ‘‘Speaking of the Moose Creek group, I have found there most favorable geological conditions for vein and ore formation. Ore is known to exist, and on Moose Creek, where crossing the property gold was mined by the earliest placer miners in Cariboo. The gold found is rough and should be classed as ‘rock gold’, and, I believe, has come from some nearby veins crossed by this little creek. The Moose Creek group covers quite an extent of the main gold quartz mineral belt, and is on the same belt that follows from Antler Creek through the China Creek group, Prosperine Mountain, Cow Mountain, Cariboo Gold Quartz properties, Island Mountain, Red Gulch and down Willow Creek to this point.’’ GROUP TWO—The Cariboo-Wells group is located on Lightning Creek taking in the area surrounding the community of Wingdam. As is well known, Light- ning Creek was the centre of a very extensive placer gold mining activity dating as far back as the original gold rush to the Cariboo and continuing to this day with an extensive project of deep development in the present bedrock of Lightning creek chan- nel. Possibilities of important ore deposits in quartz veins induced Mr. Wells to locate these claims, which will be thoroughly prospected this season. Mr. Wells comments as follows: “‘The Cariboo-Wells group is not located on the same mineral belt but is on a mountain full of interest from the amount of gold that seems to have come from erosion. There are quartz veins present and interesting specimens of free gold in quartz have been found on this property.’’ GROUP THREE—The Red Gulch Group covers an area of especial interest. The name is taken from great masses of red iron oxide in the creek and gulch well up the mountainside. Red Gulch is only one mile in length. It would appear that large amounts of gold had been carried from this creek, enriching Mosquito Creek, which was one of the richest spots in the Cariboo. Red Gulch was one of the first places to interest the quartz miner in Cariboo and was repeatedly located during early times for quartz. Today this group holds an enviable position on the proven mineral belt be- cause of its position close up to the present activity in development on the belt. Refer- ence to the map will show that this property adjoins that of Cariboo Gold Quartz and the Cariboo Consolidated Gold Mines, Ltd., on Island Mountain. The latter, one of the Newmont Mining Corporation’s operations in the Cariboo, is being developed by a long tunnel which has cut a number of veins. The Red Gulch group, which is regarded as a holding of more than ordinary promise, is being opened for development by a crew this season. GROUP FOUR—This group of claims in Devil’s Canyon is staked on the headwaters of Slough Creek and the Willow River and covers Devil’s Canyon Creek and Burns Creek on the north slope of Burns Mountain. The Devil’s Canyon group, Mr. Wells considers, is rendered especially interesting because of the very large number of quartz veins showing over the property.
