ORANGE MARYSVILLE -

What was this Geo thinking -
Irom levels ( real low )
Orange = Uranium ( highly probable )

Even the fauna ( outside ) the host rock absorbed
the orange mineral - superb pathfinder.
Too bad rhey didn't have enough sense to assay
for, uranium. But then again, photo tells all.

Hunting Mg ?
Or, hunting orher minerals....
lol


Nice sized  ( outcrop ) vs size of rock hammer.
Host rock, not floater.

IRON + MAGNESIUM RELATION TO = URANIUM

The uranium-bearing zones characterized by intense illite alteration yield high δ56Fe and δ26Mg values relative to the host rocks, with average whole-rock values of δ56Fe = 0.58 ± 0.15‰ and δ26Mg = 0.61 ± 0.29‰, and clay-size fraction values of δ56Fe = 0.51 ± 0.20‰ and δ26Mg = 0.82 ± 0.09‰. These isotopic values correlate with a decrease in average Fe2+ concentrations (0.47 versus 2.30 mol% Fe2+ in least-altered hosts).

The high δ26Mg values reflect intense illite alteration, which preferentially incorporated heavier magnesium isotopes during alteration of both the ore zones and an upper hematite-altered horizon. Although the clay alteration with high δ56Fe and δ26Mg values coincides with the main uranium-bearing zone

What does orange uranium look like in other rocks
compare with Marysville -

When it comes to Uranium - Most think of, yellow or green.

Before World War II, uranium oxide was popular as a reddish orange glaze for ceramics. Similar to the green uranium, this pigment also emitted radiation. Drinking coffee out of a nuclear cup is not the best way to start your morning. During the War, the US government confiscated all uranium oxide to be used for bomb development. Afterwards, it was used for regular goods again. Unfortunately, this orange was wildly popular in the sixties.

B.C - 2008 - Uranium Claims Returned to B.C.

20220- B.C. Chamber of Commerce


Small modular reactors (SMRs) are an effective mechanism of reaching carbon-neutrality. Nuclear CO2 emissions over the lifetime of a plant has a mean value of
66 tonnes CO2e/kWh.[6]

Comparatively, coal, oil, and natural gas emission rates means come in at
approximately 888, 733, and 499 tonnes CO2e/kWh.[7]

While SMRs may not be effective for BC, which is a province that can utilize solar, wind, and hydro resources to generate green energy, other countries and provinces use nuclear. In order to generate nuclear energy, thorium and uranium are critical. BC has these critical materials, however, due to the moratorium, we are unable to export this natural resources.

Electrical utilities, industry groups and government agencies throughout the world are investigating alternative uses for SMRs beyond electricity generation such as producing steam supply for industrial applications and district heating systems and making value-added products such as hydrogen fuel and desalinated drinking water.[9]

To drive the economy forward, we need to look at utilizing our existing natural resources.
Without the ability to explore uranium and thorium deposits, we are missing out on a large revenue source that is being used by other countries.

In 2014, the BC Chamber of Commerce had advocated for a policy requesting that the BC government lift the ban on the exploration of uranium and thorium and reduce our reliance on carbon-emitting products such as oil and gas. The BC Chamber has been a proponent for uranium, which is a key fuel for nuclear electricity. Ontario and New Brunswick already utilize Uranium[10] and Saskatchewan has most of Canada’s reserves.[11] The Canadian Chamber of Commerce supports the critical materials needed for nuclear energy and sees value in nuclear technology.[12] It is important not only from an energy standpoint, but also from its application in the medical field.[13]

In my novice opinion, i'd say Marysville has, uranium.

Given the relationship between magnesium and iron, then...
throw all those colors in the mix at diff strata levels at, Driftwood,
makes me wonder if driftwood has the, uranium.

Provincially speaking,  there's major bias in play.
Some provinces have no issues - mining uranium....
or installing uranium power plants.
Yet...B.C.  loves to mine every other mineral...
and ship - concentrates. empais on, last word.


Brines, Uranium....
Manganese suddenly trumped, magnesium.
Could it be another knows about uranium in magnesium deposits ?
Wants this....for themselves ?

I feel, someone is playing their own checker game
with minerals... someone orher than, juniors.


And here we are....2023
uranium is coming on strong vying against, wind, solar
hydrogen, battery metals as the #1 favorite for, green, clean energy.

Perhaps the junior should " up " their value in mineral worth ?
Hello.


Cheers....
