Geology Comments

Dec 07, 2005 (P Beach) - Hematized Lorrain quartzite near Nipissing diabase contact. Two areas of mineralization, 200 to 250 feet apart, were located near the western boundary of former claim S150104. The quartzite in this area has been hematitized near the contact with a diabase sill. Drilling intersected feldspathized diabase. Assays of samples taken here were 0.02 % U3O8 over 1.4 feet and 0.02% ThO2 over 5 feet. (OGS 1983 MDC 25 P 56-57).
