Lithology Comments

Jun 29, 2015 (A Wilson) - The quartz is contained within fine-grained, recrystallized mafic metavolcanics. The vein trends N70E and dips steeply toward the south. Two bands of felsic metavolcanics are interbedded with Keewatin basalt. The rhyolite on claim L13593 strikes N63ºE, dips 70ºS and ranges in width from 8 to 37 ft.
