Apr 25, 2013 (A Wilson) - Mineralization was observed in a 30 m long shear zone which has a northerly strike and a westerly dip (55ºW). The shear zone consists of quartz and chlorite and lies at a fault contact between Precambrian mafic metavolcanics and conglomerates of the Gowganda Formation.

1 | Pyrite | Economic | Gangue |
Apr 25, 2013 (A Wilson) - Pyrite-rich veins occur on both sides of the shear zone. On the east side of the shear, the pyrite zone is 4.5 m wide, but on the west side, pyrite occurs only as a 15 cm wide vein. Grab samples collected from the shear zone by the OGS in 1975 assayed nil and trace assays of gold, nil and 0.52 oz/t Ag and 0.13 and 0.14% Cu respectively.
