Jul 15, 2011 (G Bennett) - The southern part of the property is underlain by Keewatin volcanics and sediments, including a zone of low-grade magnetite iron formation upon which no development has been carried out. These rocks form the ridge seperating the Nordic and the Pardee conglomerate-bearing valleys.

Jul 15, 2011 (A Wilson) - Sulphide mineralization is associated with the contact between Nipissing diabase and massive felsic intrusive rocks. The Ekstrom Shear (local structure) also lies along the contact between these two rock types. The zone strikes N60W, dips vertical to steeply north. The vein was traced for a length of 3800 feet with widths of 1-5 feet.
