Geology Comments

Dec 07, 2005 (P Beach) - Quartz chalcopyrite veins occur in an E striking fault zone which cuts sediments of the Gowganda Formation. Samples from core gave one assay of 2.0% Cu over 5.0 feet; all other assays were less than 0.60% Cu over widths ranging from 4.5 to 7.5 feet. Zone was traced by drilling over a length of 1500 feet.
