Apr 22, 2016 (A Wilson) - Sample 380622 is a narrow (l2cm) quartz carbonate vein striking 300 and dipping 50SW in mafic volcanics. Assay value was 381 ppb Au for this sample. Sample 380629 was a section of green carbonate with quartz veining and disseminated sulphides. A number of poorly exposed float or rubble boulders lie on a shallow dipping quartz epidote vein with coarse grained (slickensided fault plane) occur at this site, on the south side ofa hogback shaped outcrop. A very old square pit (0.75m across) to the west of these boulders was found and evidence of more recent blasting was also discovered. 380629 assay va1ue was 309 ppb Au. Sample 380630 consisted of quartz flooding or vein sweats in a northwest-trending fracture zone, just north of old pit, assay value was 651 ppb Au.
