Lithology Comments

Dec 07, 2005 (A Wilson) - A sulphide-facies iron formation and a mafic to intermediate gneiss are found in the vicinity of the showing. The iron formation consists of alternating bands of pyrite and coarsely recrystallized quartz.


Dec 07, 2005 (Q Unknown) - Quartz veins are hosted in highly folded greywackes.

Mineralization Comments

Jun 17, 2013 (A Wilson) - Grab samples collected by Noranda gave only trace amounts of Au, Ag, Cu, Zn and Ni. The best result was 8 ppb Au, 1.0 ppm Ag, 350 ppm Cu, 23 ppm Zn and 84 ppm Ni. One sample yielded 0.81% U3O8 (radiometric equivalent).


Jun 17, 2013 (Q Unknown) - Pyrite, pyrrhotite and sphalerite occur in the quartz vein. Most assays range between nil to 0.09% U3O8 (radiometric equivalent), but one assay gave 0.81% U3O8 (radiometric equivalent).
