Beryllium Exploration Project

Recommendations

Info

Geology/Source • The area to the north contains volcanic rocks such as rhyolite flows and tuffs ranging is age from 3.4-4.7 Ma and are known to contain significant values of lithium, beryllium, rubidium and REE’s • Chemical and mineralogical studies of samples from shallow excavations and drill holes revealed abnormal quantities of cesium, rubidium and lithium in the beryllium-bearing tuffs. (Stonehouse, 1985) • Results from the soil grid suggest that lithium (Li), beryllium (Be), rubidium (Rb) and TREO (total rare earth oxides, including lanthanum to lutetium plus yttrium) mineralization may be present under shallow cover to the east flank of the Big Honey Comb Hill
Honeycomb Hills are two domelike bodies of rhyolite with a total volume of 0.5 km3, contained within an area approximately 1.5 km in diameter. Basaltic lava flows surround the area (Hogg, 1972), and tuffs adjacent to the rhyolite contain high concentrations of Cs, Rb, Li, Be, and F (McAnulty and Levinson, 1964).
