Geology Comments

Dec 07, 2005 (P Beach) - Quartz carbonate sulphide veins cut Gowganda Formation. Strike is N50W, dip is 80S. The vein system is exposed intermittently for a length of 300 feet, and the width ranges from 2 to 8 feet. Chalcopyrite is sparsely and erratically distrubuted, except at the SE end of the exposure, where considerable chalcopyrite is present over a width of 2 feet. The best assay from core samples was 5.05% Cu over 2 feet; all others were less than 1% Cu over widths ranging from 2.3 to 5 feet (File SSM-153) (ODM 1969 MRC 12 P 59).
