Lithology Comments

Sep 30, 2020 (Sheree Hinz) - The regional northeast-trending Cameron Creek Fault cuts through the property and a series of subparallel faults cross the property. The fault strikes 045 degrees in northwest Drury Twp. with an apparent horizontal dextral displace of about 760m (Card 1965). Mineralization occurs in sheared metagabbro and adjacent metasediments within quartz veins as well as within the rock itself. Shearing is often accompanied by quartz stringer veining, silicification and sulphide deposition.

Mineralization Comments

Oct 25, 2010 (A Wilson) - The sulphides are described as being disseminated within the bedrock. Grab samples collected by Brady and Beilhartz in 2002 returned 2431 ppm Cu and 745 ppm Ni; 6091 ppm Cu and 757 ppm Ni. Assays from the diamond drilling returned values up to 1660 ppm Ni and 1710 ppm Cu over unknown lengths.
