Jan 23, 2017 (A Wilson) - In the southeastern Ontario deposits mineralization consists of very erratically dispersed coarse flakes of molybdenite, commonly in association with pyrite and pyrrhotite. Some of the deposits are enriched in uranium. The deposits are generally small, are locally high-grade (up to 1 % MoS2) and are erratically distributed over a wide area.
