Mineralization Comments

Nov 13, 2020 (Therese Pettigrew) - Pyrite, pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite, galena and visible gold have been reported on the property. Most of the sulfides are found in the iron formations. Relatively minor amounts of disseminated sulfides are found in sheared and altered zones. Quartz veins in narrow shear zones may also contain pyrite, chalcopyrite, galena and visible gold (Assessment report 52M01SE0007). DDH NHL87-10 returned 1.406 ppm Au over 0.6 m from an iron formation at the contact with biotite-altered mafic metavolcanics with pyrite and pyrrhotite, and 2.778 ppm Au over 0.85 m from an oxide iron formation with magnetite, pyrrhotite, pyrite, and chalcopyrite (Assessment report 52M01SE0502).
