Dec 07, 2005 (P Beach) - Sulphides in fault zone in diabase dike. The zone strikes N25W and dips 75W to 90. Chip samples from trenches give average grade of 2.06% Pb, 3.80% Zn, 0.70 oz/ton Ag, over and average width of 3.7 feet, and over a length of 230 feet (File SSM 11). Mineralized sections sampled from drill cores ranged in width from 1.2 to 5.7 feet, most were less than 2.5 feet. Assays from core samples ranged from 0.25% Pb, 1.15% Zn, 0.08 oz/ton Ag over 2.0 feet to 4.1 % Pb, 4.75% Zn, 0.6 oz/ton Ag over 2.3 feet. (ODM 1969 MRC 12 p 33).
