Lithology Comments

Apr 16, 2018 (P Bousquet) - The rocks show a sequence of felsic to intermediate schistose tuffs. The intercalated beds are made of laminated chlorite dominant schists, sericite-quartz-feldspar schists, and more massive beds of felsic to intermediate crystal tuffs. Some tuff breccia and crystal lapilli tuffs bands are present too.

Mineralization Comments

Apr 16, 2018 (P Bousquet) - The hole intersected 2.8 m of massive sulphides in a quartz-sericite- chert schist or rhyolitic tuff breccia at a hole length of 61.2 m. The top meter (61-62 m) returned an assay of 1200 ppb (T-3752).
