Mar 18, 2015 (P Bousquet) - The best assay returned 0.03 oz/t Au over 1 ft in quartz vein at the contact between “ash beds” (tuff?) and “andesite flow” (Intermediate volcanics?) with arsenopyrite in hole 11. Hole 9 ( collared at the same location showed good assays in Ni in presence of trace sulphides (two samples, taken at depths of 365ft and 438ft, 2030ppm and 1549ppm.
