The prospect is in West Chichagof-Yakobi Wilderness.
Location: The Ready Bullion prospect is at sea level about 0.2 mile northwest of Channel Island in Ford Arm. The prospect is 0.6 mile southeast of the northwest corner of sec. 33, T. 49 S., R. 59 E. It is MAS no. 0021140127 (U.S. Bureau of Land Management, 2002). The location probably is accurate within 0.5 mile.
Geology: Johnson and Karl (1985) map the rocks in the area of this prospect as Cretaceous graywacke. The rocks are cut by numerous steeply-dipping, mainly northwest-striking faults. These include the extensions of the faults at the Hirst (SI087) and Chichagof (SI093) mines, which control the mineralization there. The only published information about the prospect is that it has been staked for lode gold (U.S. Bureau of Land Management, 2002).
