Mineralization Comments

Nov 04, 2022 (Therese Pettigrew) - Mineralization occurs in an east-striking and north-dipping sulphide zone parallel to the schistosity of Early Precambrian mica schists which may represent mafic metavolcanic. Sulphides consist of pyrrhotite with minor amounts of pyrite and chalcopyrite (SMDR 00515).


Jul 26, 2022 (Q Unknown) - Best assays from 1956 returned 1.88% Cu and 0.31% Ni over 1.4 m. Best intersections from drilling returned 0.47% Cu and 0.27% Ni over 2.4 m. Mineralization included pyrrhotite with minor pyrite and chalcopyrite.
