McMillan property, southeastern Yukon

The McMillan deposit contains 1.1 million tonnes grading 8.3% Zn, 4.1% Pb and 62 g/t Ag in a manto-like replacement deposit in the Proterozoic/Lower Cambrian Hyland Group at the sheared contact between carbonate rocks and underlying shale. A smaller deposit to the south contains a further 0.4 million tonnes grading 9.3% Pb, 1.7% Zn and 214 g/t Ag. These deposits appear to lie in the footwall of a southward-dipping thrust fault which extends eastward toward the Hyland Gold property.
