Mar 07, 2011 (C Ravnaas) - The exposure is mainly underlain by Fe-bearing oxidized mafic intrusive or mafic volcanic rocks. The Mo-bearing zone can be identified in more than one several exposure and some of these exposures are located 500m (UTM Zone15 623216E, 5457240N) east of the main Phyliss Lake East exposure. Samples from this Mo zone returned up to 6700 ppm Mo.(Reference Falcon Resources, Kenora Assessment File, 52G03NW A-1 AFRO # 2.46060)
Mar 07, 2011 (C Ravnaas) - In a portion of the exposure there is a fractured quartz vein. Molybdenite is located within the quartz, in fractures in quartz and also within fractures in the adjacent iron-bearing oxidized rocks. Samples collected from this Mo zone returned 1390 and 1980 ppm Mo. The iron-bearing oxidized mafic intrusive/volcanic rocks returned up to 28% Fe.
