Tier-1 Geology
The Orbit Project straddles the Quesnellia and Stikinia terranes, host to many of BC’s producing and past producing porphyry deposits, and is underlain by prospective Early Jurassic granodioritic rocks of the Pitman Batholith in fault contact to the west with Lower to Middle Jurassic sedimentary and volcanic rocks of the Hazelton Group of Stikine terrane.  Available geologic data from the BCGS currently exists at a regional scale only and continued field work will work toward refining a property scale geologic map.
