On Princess Royal Island near the head of Surf Inlet, south-east of Prince Rupert, British Columbia; Skeena Mining Division.
The following quote is from B.C. Government site “Minfile”- Minfile No. 103H 027:
“The area is underlain by hornblende-biotite quartz diorite with diorite gneiss bands of the Tertiary-Jurassic Coast Plutonic Complex. A large, complex fault zone, traced for about 4.5 kilometres in a north-south direction, hosts the ore zones of the Surf Inlet and Pugsley mines. In the mine area the fault zone is convex toward the west and consists of several shear zones up to 9 metres thick and 45 to 60 metres apart with average dips of 45 degrees west.
Mineralized quartz veins parallel or subparallel the shear zones. The veins, 30 to 50 metres apart and up to 12 metres wide, contain mainly auriferous pyrite with minor chalcopyrite, silver, chalcocite, bornite, covellite and molybdenite. Gangue minerals include quartz, ankerite and minor calcite. Sericite and chlorite alteration are common near the veins.”
Comments by Giles Peatfield regarding some of the minerals reported:
Anorthoclase: This mineral was reported by Dolmage (1922). Although not recognized as a valid species in the most recent edition of Fleischer’s Glossary of Mineral Species 2018 (Back, 2018), it is widely recognized, as a K-rich albite, by numerous other authorities. If for no reason other than historical interest, it should be allowed to stand.
“Arsenical pyrites”: Carmichael (1913) reported “. . . a little arsenical pyrites.” This mineral, presumably arsenopyrite, was not reported by later workers, and should be regarded as tentative at best; I have not included it in the list.
Gold: Visible gold was not reported by Dolmage, but Gill and Byers (p. 103) noted that “Visible gold is extremely rare, but at high magnification a few particles measuring from 7 to 40 microns have been identified in the fractured pyrite.”
“Green hornblende”: Dolmage (1922) reported green hornblende, but gave no further information.
