Dec 17, 2020 (Therese Pettigrew) - Mafic metavolcanics cut by a series of porphyry dikes up to 30 feet wide. Selected samples from stringers in the dikes assayed 0.14, 0.22 and 0.37 ounces of gold per ton (4.8, 7.54, and 12.68 g/t Au) (Ferguson et al., 1971). Noranda reported that mineralization in the old trenches is disseminated pyrite with occasional chalcopyrite (Assessment report 42L06NE0029).
