Lithology Comments

Dec 07, 2005 (A Wilson) - The gold mineralization is closely associated with pervasively altered carbonate-silica-pyrite rich horizons within porphyritic phases of the granodiorite and quartz veins proximal to the granodiorite in the footwall mafic volcanics. Multi-ounce gold values have been discovered in both environments in several gold-rich horizons with strike lengths in excess of 1.0 kms. Seven zones have been identified.
