Lithology Comments

Mar 06, 2024 (Nazha Sabiri) - Currently, the property is underlined by intercalated sequences of mafic volcanics (mafic tuff, pillowed basalt and mafic to intermediate lapilli tuff-breccia); felsic volcanics (altered felsic tuff and silicified porphyry) and intrusive rocks units (quartz-feldspar porphyries, hornblende-phyric gabbros and diabase).

Mineralization Comments

Mar 06, 2024 (Nazha Sabiri) - Sample 494795, described as milky quartz-carbonate vein with ankerite, fine laminar tourmaline, chlorite schist and 1 % disseminated pyrite returned the best assay value of 109 g/tonne; sample 494796- white quartz-carbonate with fine tourmaline and ankerite alteration returned 11.0 g/tonne; sample 494799- quartz vein with fine tourmaline along contacts and with 2-3% disseminated pyrite and rusty iron-carbonate returned 6.49 g/tonne and sample 494917- quartz vein at the contact with quartz feldspar porphyry dike returned 5.54 g/tonne. (20000021620). Drill hole 17-01 returned the 63.8 g/tonne over 1.0m as best value and 18.87 g/tonne over 3.5m as best interval (20000015337).



Alteration Comments

Mar 06, 2024 (Nazha Sabiri) - Quartz-carbonate alteration exist along contacts and within volcanic units; silicification of metavolcanics resulted in silicified zones, and both chlorite and ankerite alteration exist along strike and in quartz and quartz-carbonate veining.
