|
The Ron property is located on the slopes of Morning Star Mountain, approximately 5 km southwest of the town of Nelson in southeastern B.C. (Figure 1). Access to the property is excellent, from either a long (26 km), well-maintained gravel logging road that leaves Highway 6, approximately 6 km south of Nelson, or by paved road south from Highway 3 at the Kootenay River bridge west of Nelson, then southeastward along the east bank of Fortynine Creek. These two access roads join, crossing the central part of the group of claims that are referred to as the Ron property.
The area is mountainous, ranging in elevation from approximately 760 meters to 1400 meters. A considerable part of the area has been logged but some regions with mature cedar and fir, and occasional birch and alder remain. Generally, vegetation is dense, and at rock outcrops are not that abundant except in road cuts, creek gullies and at higher elevations. General location map showing regional geology
