Mar 30, 2007 (Mark Puumala) - Weidner (1987) reported an anomalous gold assay of 0.047 oz/ton from a small, isolated quartz vein located in a felsic intrusion near the southern boundary of the Lang Lake greenstone belt. The occurrence is located immediately east of the contact between intermediate metavolcanics and granodiorite and a north-northeast trending lineament mapped by Weidner (1987).
