Book Synopsis Geology and Mineral Deposits of the Northern Kechika Trough Between Gataga River and the 60th Parallel by : Filippo Ferri
Book excerpt: The Kechika Trough in the Rocky Mountains of northern British Columbia is host to numerous sedimentary exhalative barite-lead-zinc deposits collectively known as the Gataga mineral district. This report summarizes the bedrock mapping component of a multi-disciplinary study of the northern part of this basin. Field data for this component were collected during the summers of 1994 to 1996. Sections of the report describe the study area's lithologic units (Proterozoic to Cambrian strata, intrusives), geologic structure (faults, folds, cleavage), metamorphism, and economic geology (mineralization, skarns, veins, sulphides).
