Exploration History

1931: Claims were staked by A. Cockshutt and F. MacLeod. Gold-bearing quartz veins were discovered. 1932: Surface exploration performed. 1933: Surface expl'n con't and the discovery of larger mineralized zones led to the organization of MacLeod-Cockshutt Gold Mines Ltd. 1934: A 3 compartment shaft (No. 1 Shaft) was sunk to 52.4 m. Operations suspended due to discouraging results. 1936: Diamond-drilling resumed; 4 compartment shaft sunk (No. 2 Shaft) 600 m to the SE of No. 1 Shaft; levels established; buildings cons't at the site of the No. 2 shaft. 1937: Cons't began on a 500 t/d mill. 1938-1941: the MacLeod-Cockshutt Mine became the fifth producing gold mine in the Little Long Lac area in April 1938. Extensive underground dev't con't. Work began to expand mill to 1000 t/d. 1942-1949: Extensive underground dev't and diamond-drilling con't. 1950: An additional mill was constructed, increasing capabilities to 1400 t/d. 3077 tons of tailings treated. 1951: F-zone exhausted; roaster plant shut down; more tailings treated. 1952: Rod mill added. 1953: Milling rate increased to an avg of 1250 to/d. 1954-1960: Underground dev't con't. 1959: Mill tonnage increased to 1915 tons/day; a drive was extended west from the 524.26 m level to meet Mosher's 530.4 m level. 1961: Production from Consolidated Mosher began with 1250 tons/d. 1962: Consolidated Mosher began providing most of the ore. 1964: Mill operating at capacity (2500 tons/d). 1965-66: Underground operations con't. 1967: Mine began operations on a salvage basis. MacLeod-Cockshutt Gold Mines Ltd., Consolidated Mosher Mines Ltd. and Hard Rock Gold Mines Ltd. were amalgamated to form MacLeod Mosher Gold Mines Ltd. 1968-70: Underground operations ceased in July 1970. 1980s: Lac Minerals Ltd undertook studies on the existing underground reserves and carried out lithogeochamical sampling. 1987: Lac Minerals conducted ground geophysical surveys, drilled 77 DDH totalling approx. 15,240 m. 1992: Asarco Exploration Company of Canada Ltd. entered a 5-year agreement with Lac Minerals. 1993: Asarco carried out a program of RC overburden drilling and DDH focusing on the F Zone and the albite porphyry. A pit resource of 1,920,000 tons grading 0.079 oz/t Au and ramp resource of 1,160,000 tons grading 0.127 oz/t Au was calculated for the Porphyry Hill, West and East pits. 1994: Asarco continued exploration with RC drilling in overburden, sonic holes in tailings and an additional 40,000’ of DDH. 1996: Cyprus Canada Inc assumed Asarco’s role in the Lac Minerals agreement and drilled 24 holes, leading to the discovery of the B Zone. 1997: agreement ended, properties were dormant until 2000, when a rehabilitation program was begun. 2000-2007: crown pillar drilling was conducted for stability assessment. 2008: Premier Gold acquired Lac Minerals properties. 2009: Premier drilled 346 DDH, totalling 91,802 m. 2 areas were stripped, washed and sampled. 2010: three areas were stripped and washed, two were sampled. A regional prospecting program was conducted during the summer. 279 DDH totalling 114,611 m drilled. 2011: drilling continued with 204 DDH totalling 107, 413 m. Premier Gold acquired Goldstone Resources, which gave Premier 100% interest in the Hardrock Project. 2012: Premier drilled 125 DDH totalling 68,549 m. 2013: Premier drilled 296 DDH totalling 138,250.5 m. 2014-15: Premier carried out trenching and drilled 122 DDH totalling 40,975.9 m. 2016: Greenstone Gold Mines GP Inc. conducted IP and mag surveys. 2018: Greenstone Gold drilled 405 RC holes totalling 19,995 m and 62 percussion holes totalling 535 m. 2019: Greenstone Gold drilled 77 RC holes totalling 5999 m and 58 DDH totalling 18,141.85 m.

Geology Comments

Dec 07, 2005 (B Nelson) - The orebodies ar the MacLeod Cockshutt Mine occur within the western part of a large elliptical bulge along the south flank of the Ellis syncline. Within this bulge the rock formations have been intensely folded along east-west axes and plunge westerly at 20-25 degrees. In addition to the strongly sheared zone (Bankfield-Tombill fault zone) extending across the southern part of the property, there are many minor traverse faults of general north-south strike and steep easterly dip. Three distinct orebody types have been recognized: 1). Quartz veins and mineralized zones occur within and along the contacts of the albite porphyry and within greywacke and lean iron formation. The sulphides show a tendency to concentrate in the wall rocks. Gold occurs in both altered wall rocks and veins and is closely associated with sulphides. 2). Irregular, massive lenses of sulphides and quartz occur in a folded series of greywacke and iron formation. Veins are usually barren of gold mineralization except where they contain sulphides. 3). Numerous thin, gold-bearing quartz stringers occur along shear fractures in zones of faulting, folding and shearing at the contact with wacke and albite porphyry. Gold concentrations were relatively lower than in the first two types, and this ore is free milling. The F Zone was the most spectacular, accounting for an orebody of some 10,000,000 tons of 0.15 oz/ton Au. Macdonald (1982) noted 3 types of gold mineralization: 1). Relatively undeformed qtz-carb-sulph veins striking approximately WNW, often localized by shear faults. 2). Deformed qtz-carb-sulph veins, striking obliquely (ENE) to the major structures. 3). Qtz-carb-sulph replacement ore, often iron formation, spatially associated with type '1' veins.


Aug 11, 2014 (Therese Pettigrew) - The local geological setting of the Hardrock deposit is represented by the southern sedimentary unit of the Beardmore-Geraldton Belt. The southern sedimentary unit in the Geraldton area is characterized by multiple horizons of magnetite-rich chert banded iron formation within a thick sequence of interlayered sandstone-argillite and minor polymictic conglomerate. The sequence is intruded by medium- to coarse-grained diorite sills and feldspar-quartz porphyry dykes, which, together with the sedimentary rocks are folded by tight to isoclinal, regional F2 folds. Most mineralized occurrences in the Hardrock deposit area lie in a zone of deformation to the immediate north of, and genetically linked to, the Tombill-Bankfield Deformation Zone. Gold deposits in the Hardrock deposit area are examples of epigenetic non-stratiform banded iron-formation-hosted gold deposits (Brousseau et al., 2013).


Dec 07, 2005 (Q Unknown) - The property is underlain by a wide variety of rock formations. The oldest are of volcanic origin and form a narrow zone of tuffs and agglomerate, which, with intrusive hornblende diorite. form a low ridge across the southern part of the claim group. To the north, in which direction grain gradations indicate the tops face, narrow conformable bands of hydroclastic material appear and, as these increase in both number and thickness relative to the tuffaceous horizons, the zone passes over into an overlying sedimentary series made up of conglomerate, greywacke, iron formation and slate.

Intrusive into this series is a variety of igneous rocks, which from the oldest to the youngest include hornblende gabbro and diorite and both quartz and olivine diabase.

Mineralization Comments

Dec 07, 2005 (B Nelson) - Sulphides, in order of abundance, include py (80%), asp (15%), po, sp, cp, leucopyrite, gn, gold and cn. Non-metallic minerals recognized include ankerite, calcite, scheelite, tourmaline and graphite. Iron oxides occur in many places. Six main ore zones were exploited. Most of the ore was recovered from the 'F' zone, which is 6.1 to 18.3 wide, 121.9 to 213.4 m high and continuous along plunge for 2,529.84 m, about 1,371.6 m of which is located on the property of the Consolidated Mosher Mine to the west.


Aug 11, 2014 (Therese Pettigrew) - Gold mineralization generally occurs in association with subvertical structures associated with quartz veins or stringers, minor to semi-massive sulphides (associated with replacement zones in BIF), weak to moderate carbonate and weak to strong sericite alteration. The or zones rake shallowly towards the west in the vicinity of the Hard Rock, MacLeod-Cockshutt and Mosher Mines (15-30° W) and slightly more steeply towards the west at the Little Long Lac Mine (50-60° W), indicative of a strong structural control that post-dates the tight folding of the primary units. There is also local control as a result of lithological controls, with gold-bearing zones preferentially forming where subvertical structures have crossed favourable environments, including the BIF and areas around the contact of the Hard Rock Porphyry and the sedimentary rocks it intrudes. The structurally controlled, high grade veins spatially related to the Hard Rock Porphyry are similar to quartz-carbonate-sericite veins that host gold in many gold camps in Ontario. The veins related to the Hard Rock Porphyry do not host significant tonnages of ore from past production, despite their locally high grades. The turbidite-associated mineralization is typically characterized by narrow, often sheeted, mm-cm scale veins with attendant by highly variable degrees of carbonate-sericite-pyrite alteration. This style of mineralization forms wide, low grade zones. The iron-formation hosted mineralization is similar to that in Archean-age gold mines elsewhere in Ontario (Musselwhite and Dona Lake Mines). This mineralization is typically in the form of sulphidized zones on a cm-m scale associated with minor quartz veins that transect iron-formation beds (Armstrong et al., 2010).



Alteration Comments

Dec 07, 2005 (B Nelson) - Some of the quartz stringers are not accompanied by any visible alteration of the wall rocks, but most of them, and in particular those that are gold-bearing, are bordered by buff-colored selvages of sericitized and carbonatized greywacke. The selvages may extend for as much as eight inches outward from the wall of a stringer not more than a quarter of an inch in thickness, and where several stringers occur along closely spaced, parallel fractures, altered zones several feet in width are common.
