Geology Comments

Jun 11, 2020 (G Seim) - Diamond-drill hole PA97-5 collared in granite at 8 m. The hole encountered silicified mafic volcanic rock from 87.7 m to 96.9 m, a felsic dyke from 96.8 m to 98.6 m and then continued in mafic to intermediate volcanic rock to a final depth of 130.9 m. The drill log indicates a 10 cm interval of quartz with finely disseminated and stringer chalcopyrite at 103.1 m. A 0.7 m sample including this mineralized material returned occurrence-grade copper and gold assays.
