Point Location Description: Shaft, symbol most northerly of four near property symbol 19.
Location Method: Conversion from MDI
Access Description: From the junction of highways #7 & #62 proceed north on highway #62 to Bannockburn. Continue 0.9km past Bannockburn on Highway #62 to the Wolfe Lake road. North East on the Wolfe Lake road for 2.3 km. A short trail on the north side of the road leads to the property.
1898: 20 tons of hand cobbed ore were produced from the open cuts by L. Meyer and R.C. Van der Meulen. 1903-1906, 1916: Four shafts sunk to 90 feet (#1), 132 ft (#2 SE), 65 ft. (#2 NW), 40 ft (#3 NW). The no. 1 shaft was the main shaft with drifts at 181 feet east and 159 feet west from the bottom of the shaft. Part of the vein between #2 SE and #2 SW was stoped out to the surface. 2,653,365 lbs. of lead were produced by the Ontario Mining and Smelting Co. 1956: 18 diamond drill holes totalling 3,810 feet were drilled by Teck Expl. Co. Ltd. 1966: Soil geochemical and ground magnetometer surveys south of the minesite completed by Pennaroya Canada Ltd. 1980: Geological mapping of the mine property by Can prospect. The complete site was rehabilitated in March of 1999. All of the shafts and trenches were filled in by either blasting or backfilling.
Province: Grenville
Subprovince: Central Metasedimentary Belt
Geological Age: Mesoproterozoic
Dec 07, 2005 (C Papertzian) - The deposit is a calcite vein which occupies a zone of dislocation striking north 50 degrees west about at right angles to the strike of the gneisses. The dip is steep to the northeast and in places is vertical. In places the vein reaches a width of 10 feet. Its average width is about 4 feet. The walls are polished and slickensided. Horses of country rock occur in the vein. The vein shows good crustification. The ore is chiefly galena with here and there negligible amounts of sphalerite. Small quantities of pyrite are also present. The gangue minerals are calcite and barite, the latter in minor amounts. The galena occurs as crystals scattered through the gangue and as tabular masses commonly located close to the foot-wall. In places, however, it is concentrated towards the middle of the vein. Large masses of galena were found in the upper parts of the vein and were mined; it is probable similar concentrations may occur in other parts of the vein. (Economic Geology # 8, 1930). Some barite is present and silver concentrations are reported to be low.
