Dec 07, 2005 (K R Kettles) - The area is primarily underlain by mafic metavolcanic flows. These are generally pillowed to massive, strike slightly east of north and dip steeply to the west. They have been intruded by thin feldspar-porphyry dikes, and more massive ultramafic intrusions. Metasedimentary units and thin iron formation units are intercalated with the metavolcanics.

Dec 07, 2005 (K R Kettles) - MDI1 DATA: GRADE 1967 DDH LG-67-203: ONLY TR.AU, 1.18 OPT AG/1.5 M Only trace values in gold have been reported, but a 1.5 m section of drill core returned 1.18 oz/ton (40.456 g/tonne)Ag.
Dec 07, 2005 (K R Kettles) - The mafic metavolcanics contain abundant biotite chlorite and locally, epidote. They are also locally silicified and carbonatized and contain a few garnets. The ultramafic rocks are locally altered to an assemblage of talc, calcite and epidote.
