Dec 07, 2005 (P Beach) - Radioactivite anomalies occur at the sheared contacts of Keweenawan diabase dikes and Early Precambrian granite. The contacts are filled with quartz and calcite stringers with a bright red stain due to the presence of hematite. Some radioactivity of up to 8 times background was found in the granite and associated pegmatites. (OGS 1983 MDC 25 P 67).
