Dec 07, 2005 (P Beach) - Chalcopyrite, specularite, minor pyrite and pyrrhotite occur as discreet grains, and as small irregular veins, often associated with quartz, in fractured syenite and granite. Sampling of certain trenches indicated economically interesting copper values. Drilling of these deposits and of geophysical anomalies returned generally low values, most commonly less than 0.25 % Cu. (ODM 1969 MRC 12 P 16).
