Mar 11, 2024 (Nazha Sabiri) - A property visit by Kenora RGP staff in 1990 described the prospect as having two type of veins. Both veins are hosted by moderately biotitized and carbonatized shear zones that are trending 45 degree. The vein at shaft No.1 is sugary in texture, wider (1-2m) and shows epidotization in some pillow cores while the vein at shaft No. 2 is blue-grey, fine grained, narrower (10cm) wide and contains tourmaline.
