Lithology Comments

Dec 07, 2005 (A Wilson) - Diamond drilling intersected a thick sequence of feldspar porphyritic mafic metavolcanic rocks. A narrow shear zone hosts a sulphide-bearing quartz veins.

Mineralization Comments

Sep 05, 2014 (A Wilson) - A reference in file T-614 indicates that a sheared feldspar porphyry to the west of the Dominion Gulf ground in Cote township returned an assay as high as $24.00 Au/t. Grab samples collected by I. Dea in 1981 returned values of 4 g/t Au and 3 g/t Ag; 14 g/t Au and 7 g/t Ag. Grab samples collected by Jones and Filo returned values as high as 7297 ppb Au (2.67 g/t Au). The best assay from the diamond drill hole returned an assay of 0.06 oz/t Au over 2.2 ft (T-3847).


Sep 05, 2014 (P Bousquet) - The interesting assays are located in the mafic volcanics, perhaps in narrow quartz stringers (T-3847).
