Lithology Comments

Jan 22, 2014 (A Wilson) - Diamond drilling intersected a sequence of pillowed dacite/andesite, andesite, agglomerate and graphitic tuff. Interbedded within these units are narrow bands of bedded tuff and graphitic sediments. Albitite dikes also were observed in DDH T-60.

Mineralization Comments

Jan 22, 2014 (D Draper) - Hole T-61 (DCL TI 4519) (drilled az. 137, dip -49) intersected a 4.9m unit of laminated graphitic tuff @ 117.6m downhole mineralized with network and bedded sph and nodules of py. This unit assayed 11300 ppm Zn, 5880 ppm Pb over 0.3m and 76700 ppm Zn, 15900 ppm Pb, 1110 ppm Cu over 0.6m. A unit of graphitic sediment @ 319.3m assayed 13300 ppm Zn, 2020 ppm Cu and 25ppm Ag over 0.3m. Hole T-60 (DCL TI4518) (az. 141, dip -65), co-collared with T-61, intersected 3.58m of a bedded andesitic tuff @ 503.2m which returned 4500 ppm Zn, 1430 ppm Cu over 1.1m and 5370 ppm Zn, 1080 ppm Cu over 1.08m.
