Sep 01, 2017 (Therese Pettigrew) - One of the diamond drill holes encountered a 3 m section composed of very fine dacite containing several irregular sulphide patches composed of pyrite, pyrrhotite, and sphalerite. A 1.6 m core sample from this section assayed 0.04% Cu and 1.18% Zn. The other drill hole yielded a 4.8 m section consisting of banded rhyolite which contained a 3.8 cm vein of solid chalcopyrite. Disseminated grains and irregular veins of pyrite, pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite and sphalerite occur through the dacite (Davies and Morin, 1976). Davies and Morin (1976) map this area as volcanic sandstones.
