Dans la préface de notre premier volume nous avons fait, pour ainsi dire, l’histoire du livre que nous présentons au public; nous avons dit quelles circonstances nous avaient réunis dans une pensée commune, quels liens d’amitié s’étaient formés entre nous, et comment la haute protection de Sa Majesté Impériale et celle du ministre éclairé qui présidait alors au département des finances et des mines, nous avaient encouragés et secondés dans l’exécution d’un projet, qui nous paraissait d’abord au dessus de nos forces.

Barneys Canyon is a sediment-hosted, disseminated gold deposit located 7 km from the large, gold-rich, Bingham porphyry copper deposit. Host rocks for gold mineralization are the Permian Park City dolomite and siltstone and the Kirkman-Diamond Creek sandstone. The gold deposit is approximately 430 m long, 370 m wide, up to 90 m thick and contains 8.5 million metric tons (t) of reserves averaging 1.6 g/t gold. Intrusive igneous rocks are conspicuously absent. The gold deposit is located on the northern flank of the northeast-trending Copperton anticline, an overturned box fold. A small east-striking, south-dipping thrust fault, the Barneys Canyon thrust fault, with 200 m displacement, repeats the Park City Formation, and north-south-striking steep normal faults form a graben in which the gold deposit is located. The Barneys Canyon thrust fault predates mineralization and the Phosphate normal fault postdates mineralization.
