Geology Comments

Dec 07, 2005 (A Wilson) - The Emily Bay Deformation Zone (EBDZ) is located on the west side of Dog Lake in southern Riggs Township. The EBDZ is a 500 m wide, east-northeast trending zone of intense ductile shearing and weakly to strongly strained rocks. The EBDZ can be traced up to 4 km to the southwest of Dog Lake but cannot be traced to the eastern side of Dog Lake. The EBDZ is localized within massive to pillowed mafic metavolcanic rocks that are deformed to chlorite-calcite and chlorite-iron carbonate schists within several discrete ductile shear zones. These shear zones are NE-trending and vay in width from 1 m to greater than 30 m. A second set of narrow, brittle to ductile, NW-trending shear zones is observed in the vicity of this showing.

Lithology Comments

Dec 07, 2005 (A Wilson) - The occurrence consists of two bands of sheared felsite and quartz within a massive felsite dike. The felsite dike intrudes pillowed mafic basalts.




Mineralization Comments

Oct 20, 2014 (A Wilson) - Chip samples taken from the sheared felsite and quartz ranged from trace to 0.006 oz/t Au over 3 feet.
