Summary The Bingo property is located within the Coast Mountain Boundary Ranges of the Skeena Mining Division approximately 50 kilometres south of Stewart, BC and 130 kilometres northeast of Prince Rupert, BC. It is comprised of three mineral tenures 100% owned by J2 Syndicate Holdings Ltd. and totals 988.92 hectares of land within the Hastings Arm NTS map sheet 104P/12. The Property is within an area of rugged topography between the Anyox and Donahue Creeks along the west side of Hastings Arm. This area experiences typical northwestern BC long, mild and wet winters. Mineral exploration may be conducted on a year-round basis, although at higher elevations, the season may be dependent upon snow pack levels and/or stability as well as fog (Benz, 2018). Historical mineral exploration within the Hastings Arm area was for copper, gold, silver, lead and zinc. More recent activities are focused on Noranda/Kuroko massive sulfide copper-lead-zinc deposits, with associated silver-lead-zinc±gold mineralization such as the Dolly Varden Mine, as well as precious metal, porphyry-style mineralization. Historical work within the current Bingo Property boundary includes reconnaissance-style geochemical surveys. Based on the work conducted to date there are two possible styles of mineralization indicated on the Bingo Property: volcanic-hosted massive sulfide and epithermal (Benz,

They differ from Tech- nical Reports in terms of subject scope and potential audience: Manusciipt Reports deal primarily with national or regional problems and distribution is generally restrict- ed to institutions or individuals located in particular regions of Canada. No restriction is placed on subject matter and the series reflects the broad interests and policies of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, namely, fisheries management, technology and development, ocean sciences, and aquatic environments relevant to Canada. Manuscript Reports may be cited as full publications. The correct citation appears above the abstract of each report. Each report will be abstracted by Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Abstracts and will be indexed annually in the Department's index to scientific and technical publications. Numbers 1-900 in this series were issued as Manuscript Reports (Biological Series) of the Biological Board of Canada, and subsequent to 1937 when the name of the Board was changed by Act of Parliament, as Manuscript Reports (Biological Series) of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada.

Department of The University of British Columbia 1956 Main Mall Vancouver, Canada V6T 1Y3 •6 (3/81) ABSTRACT A geochemical study of the composition of natural sediments and contaminating mine tailings in Hastings and Alice Arms has been carried out. Apart from the geochemical investigation on the solid fraction, pore waters from six sediment cores have been analyzed to evaluate the diagenetic processes in the sediments of these two inlets. Differences in the mineralogy as well as in the chemical composition of the sediments were used to distinguish the natural sediments from contaminated sediments and pure tailings. In Alice Arm, two types of tailings could be differentiated with these methods. The first tailings type originated from the Kitsault Mo-deposit, which was mined in the past two decades by the B.C.
