Geology Comments

Dec 07, 2005 (P Beach) - Disseminated sulphides in argillite and quartzite of the Gordon Lake Formation. In the first 8 d.d. holes completed, the highest assay value was 0.86% Cu and the lowest was 0.10% Cu, both over widths of 0.8 feet. In further d.d., the best intersection was 0.34% Cu over 9.1 feet. The copper intersections were reported to be continuous in many holes, and were encountered at depths from near surface to in excess of 1300 feet. (ODM 1969 MRC 12 P 91).
