Dec 07, 2005 (A Wilson) - The occurrence consists of sulphide mineralization in quartz veins at the contact between what is interpreted to be a mafic raft enclosed by the surrounding intermediate intrusive rocks. Records indicate that the mineralization is associated with small drag folds and schistose material.
