Geology Comments

Apr 24, 2017 (C Ravnaas) - “The Snake Bay formation is best exposed west of Cedartree Lake and consist of massive, pillowed and plagioclase phyric flows intruded by synvolcanic gabbro sills.” (OFR5682, pg.4). “A variety of felsic intrusions occur within the volcanic sequence, both as dikes and sills. They have been described as quartz porphyry, feldspar porphyry and quartz-feldspar porphyry are interpreted to predate the Stephan Lake Stock” (Kenora AF 52F05SW, QQQQ-10, 2.55674, Metals Creek Resources, pg.6).
