Mineralization Comments

Jun 07, 2010 (D Draper) - Hole DL-83-46 returned assays of up to 3500 ppm Zn from a po-bearing conductive unit of argillite chert and 550 ppb Au over 0.5m from an adjacent unit of magnetite-bearing chert. Hole DL-83-47 was collared 90m due east of 46 and on the same bearing (270 deg). The best assay returned was 5300 ppm Zn over 0.5 m, also from a magnetite-bearing chert. (T-2443)
