“…Gastropods are most like those from coeval Farewell terrane units to the southwest and have Siberian paleogeographic affinities (Blodgett et al, 2002), but trilobites resemble species from the Canadian Arctic Islands (Weber et al, 1994). Conglomerate clasts include chert, mudstone, sandstone, and felsic to intermediate igneous rocks (Athey and Craw, 2004). Petrographic analysis of graywacke suggests a collision orogen source, with some local input from the underlying Ordovician Livengood Dome Chert (Gergen et al, 1988).…”

“…Altered volcanic rocks belonging to this unit were previously mapped as the Ruth Creek and Olive Creek plutons by Athey and Craw (2004). Subsequent exploration drilling at Money Knob showed that these rocks have volcanic textures and comprise a stratiform layer approximately 10-75 m thick (Klipfel and others, 2009).…”

“…The Cambrian assemblage displays a mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB) trace-element signature (Athey and others, 2004c) and may represent a differentiated sill complex (Cady and Morin, 1990) or an obducted slab of oceanic crust. This assemblage is metamorphosed to prehnite-pumpellyite facies (Foster, 1966;Athey and Craw, 2004).…”
