Lithology Comments

Jan 25, 2010 (D Draper) - The property has a large sill-like gabbroic body intruded by several felsic porphyry dikes and a north-northwest trending diabase dike. Near the junction of Jamieson, Robb, Turnbull and Godfrey Townships are found two sub-parallel shear zones trending in a northeasterly direction. These shear zones are exposed on the NW and SE sides of a large outcrop situated in the SW ¼, S ½, Lot 12, Conc. I of Jamieson and host the Daxl-Gryba Zinc No.1 and Zinc No.2 veins. The shear zones strike approximately Az. 050. The largest vein on the SE side of the main outcrop has been traced continuously for 400ft, varying in width from 2 to 6ft.

Mineralization Comments

Jan 22, 2010 (D Draper) - The original Jamieson Vein No. 2 is coincident with Daxl-Gryba Zinc Vein 1. Daxl-Gryba Zinc Vein 2--coincident with Jamieson Vein No. 1--is located 143m to the NW. Jamieson Vein No. 2 consists of quartz mineralized with sphalerite, pyrite and chalcopyrite. Initial sampling returned zinc values to 40.2%. Drillhole No. 1 (collared in area of occurrence but exact locn unknown) reportedly assayed 18.78% Zn and 0.13 opt Au from a 2ft quartz vein with 30% massive sphalerite. (T-342) Chip sampling at Zinc Vein 1 in 2004 returned up to 7.447% Zn, 4160 ppb Au and 29 ppm Ag. Follow-up channel sampling returned over 10% Zn from 4 of the 8 channels cut. The best assays from all channel samples taken were 36.8% Zn, 4.602 g/t Au, 62 g/t Ag, 0.565% Pb, 0.206% Cu. (T-5092)
