Lithology Comments

Nov 28, 2014 (A Wilson) - : Diamond drilling intersected a sequence of intermediate to felsic flows which are tuffaceous to brecciated in nature. The mineralization lies within a weakly graphitic horizon. The drill hole terminates in a quartz-carbonate zone that becomes progressively more carbonate rich at depth.
