Work scheduled to commence June 24th and be completed by July 8th but was extended slightly to try to complete the project. The claim is in good standing until January 26th 2017. PROPERTY DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION The Chew Tung Hydraulic claim is approximately 3km south of Wells on Cow and Richfield Mountains and is just over 1302 hectares. It is easily accessible by 4x4 vehicles or ATV, during the dry season, by the Jack of Clubs Creek Service Road located approximately 4km west of Wells off Highway 26. The current project area lies south of Jack of Clubs Lake, situated within the Quesnel Highlands on the eastern edge of the Interior Plateau. The topography is moderate, rising from about 1200m at Wells to just over 1700m on Cow Mountain. The climate consists of cool summers and cold winters due to the moderately high altitude of the Wells area and is wet throughout the year, with a mean annual precipitation of 100 cm that includes a significant amount of snow, especially at the higher elevations. The area does experience Chinook conditions during the winter months and the climate becomes very mild for brief periods of time. Snowfall in the area is moderate to heavy. In the summer the area experiences fairly consistent rain in early and late summer with extended dry hot spells in between. Summits in the immediate area are generally rounded, having been glaciated by continental ice sheets during the Pleistocene Epoch (Holland, 1976, Hart, 2001). Ice direction is generally to the northwest near Wells and glacial till is the most widespread surficial deposit in the area. The Wells area is generally well forested. Hillside slopes are dominated by spruce and sub-alpine fir, accompanied by alders and other deciduous foliage on lower wetter slopes flanking river valleys. GEOLOGICAL SETTING The geology of the Cariboo gold mining district has been presented in reports and maps by Bowman (1889, 1895), Johnston and Uglow (1926), Hanson (1935), Sutherland Brown (1957), Struik (1988) and Levson and Giles (1993). The Chew Tung Hydraulic Project lies within the Kootenay (Barkerville) Terrane, part of the Omineca Belt of the Canadian Cordillera (cf. Struik; 1986; 1988) The Barkerville Terrane consists of a Late Proterozoic and Paleozoic sequence of continental shelf and slope deposits developed adjacent to the craton of Ancestral North America and includes clastic sedimentary rocks along with lesser amounts of volcanic rocks and carbonates. It is structurally the lowest exposed stratigraphic sequence in the area and is more deformed and metamorphosed than adjacent terrains. Rocks of the Snowshoe Group in the Wells area have been metamorphosed to lower greenschist facies, generally of lower metamorphic grade than other sequences in the Barkerville Terrane. Rocks of the Barkerville Terrane were subjected to an early period of ductile deformation that resulted in westward directed, asymmetrical folds plunging shallowly to the northwest. Post metamorphic open folds with upright cleavage are superimposed on earlier structures. During Late Cretaceous to Early Tertiary time, the terrane was disrupted by northwest trending dextral strike-slip faults such as the Willow Fault, a major strike slip fault of unknown displacement that has been mapped through Mount Tom, Island Mountain, Cow Mountain and Richfield Mountain in the Wells area (Struik, 1988) A wide spread mantle of glacial drift overgrown with trees and vegetation, limits the, outcrop of bedrock largely to the tops of ridges, divides and individual mountains and along steep slopes of the more prominent rivers and streams. Outcrops of bedrock are not extensive even along the ridges and mountain tops. Local bedrock outcrops are found in the bottom of some of the incised streams and along the steep north side of Cow and Richfield Mountains. The remainder of the area contains a fairly thick mantle of glacial drift. Stratigraphy The Cariboo group, which underlies the area of the claim, is composed of clastic rocks with lesser amounts of carbonate rocks. The rocks have been subjected to a low-grade regional metamorphism and intense deformation. The deformation has impressed a marked secondary foliation on most all the clastic rocks and some carbonate rocks. Despite the effects of deformation and regional metamorphism, the rocks still commonly show original bedding and other sedimentary features. Many of the rocks are difficult to name accurately because of their original sedimentary and subsequent metamorphic character. Many clastic rocks of the Cariboo group are composed of poorly sorted sediments of grains much larger
