NTS Grid: 52F10SE

Point Location Description: Claim Map TurtlePond Lake (G-2595), NTS; 52F10SE

Location Method: Field Visit with GPS

Access Description: The property can be reached by driving on Highway 502 for a distance of 40 km south of Dryden. A gravel logging road (Domtar) Desarre road is used to travel south west for 5 km. From this point a new trail going east traverses the western portion of the grid. The eastern portion of the grid crosses Highway 502.



Exploration History

2008: Canadian Arrow Mines Ltd completed line cutting, prospecting, grab sampling, mechanical trenching and ground geophysical surveys over portions of the North Glatz Grid. In August 2008, RJ Meikle & Associates were contracted to perform ground magnetic and inducted polarization surveys over the Prig showings.

Lithology Comments

Mar 03, 2010 (J Bongfelt) - The North Glatz Grid is underlain by north-south striking, intermediate to mafic volcanics, locally intercalated with felsic agglomerates and tuffs. These volcanic rocks are intruded by numerous sills of mafic to ultramafic composition. Canadian Arrow Mines Ltd geologists identify the following rock types as underlying the property: 1) Mafic Volcanics: The volcanic rocks occupy the western and eastern parts of the grid, with contacts trending north-northeast. The mafic volcanics are medium to dark green color. The rocks are fine-grained and non-magnetic. The volcanic rocks are locally highly carbonatized and silicified. 2) Gabbro I Diorite: The gabbro is generally medium to coarse grained, although medium-grained phases with blue quartz eyes are locally developed throughout most of the property. The blue quartz eyes in the gabbroic rock are evidence of an intrusive origin. The unit is medium to dark green in color. Minor suphide mineralization was found associated with this unit. 3) Pyroxenite: Pyroxenite underlies one area located in the western part of the grid. The pyroxenite is medium grained, dark black and weakly foliated. Minor sulphide mineralization was found associated with this unit. 4) Sediments: Mechanical trenching of NG-2 was located on an airborne VTEM anomaly with a coincident IP response. Light grey massive to weekly foliated sedimentary unit was identified in the trench. Due to the length of several km of the anomaly is likely that the sedimentary unit is the cause of the geophysical response. (Kenora AF 52F10SE AA-7, Cnd Arrow Mines Ltd., North Glatz Grid)




Mineralization Comments

Mar 03, 2010 (J Bongfelt) - Prospecting samples from the east end of the grid has retuned anomalous gold assay values in three samples up to 0.99 gm/t Au. The foliation in these rocks and the gold values indicate more work should be completed in this area. Mapping, prospecting, soil surveys may be required to determine if the gold showing has potential for developing into a larger exploration target.
