SUMMARY

In July 1989, Bond Gold Canada (BGC) staked 88 claims north

of, and contiguous with, the originally optioned (ie. Johnson and

Glatz Option) Whitewater Property, thus increasing BGC's land

holdings in the Turtlepond area to 157 claims. The claims

acquisition was prompted by the encouraging results of the 1988

mapping and sampling program. BGC currently holds 67 (100% owned)

claims, which have been partially covered by the 1989 geological

mapping program.

The purpose of the 1989 exploration program was to trace the

northerly strike extension of narrow, auriferous quartz vein shear

zones outlined during the 1988 mapping program on the Whitewater

Property.

The mapping survey was not successful in extending the quartz

veined shear zones to the north.

However, airphoto lineament analysis has defined 4 major

structural trends on the Whitewater Property, 2 of which are known

to host gold mineralization. The intersection and along strike

extension of these structural trends offer very attractive targets

for significant gold mineralization.

Additional mapping, sampling and prospecting is recommended

to evaluate a number of these high priority structural targets.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

This report describes the results of the 1989 Exploration

Program carried out by Bond Gold Canada Inc. (BGC) on the

Whitewater Property.

The 1989 exploration program consisted of linecutting,

geological mapping, prospecting and stripping. The work was

performed during the period July 16th to August 29th, 1989. A

total of 33km of grid were mapped at a scale of 1:2,500.

A total of 50 samples were collected and submitted to Custom

Fire Assay Lab in Cochenour, Ontario and analyzed for gold.

1.1 Location and Access

The Whitewater Property is located within the Manitou-Wabigoon

Lakes portion of the Archean Superior Structural Province.

The claims are situated in the Kenora Mining District of

northwestern Ontario, approximately 25km southeast of Dryden, south

of the Wabigoon Lake Indian Reserve No. 27 and centred on the east

shore of Stanawan Bay of Dinorwic Lake (Figure 1).

Access to the property is afforded by float and/or ski

equipped fixed wing aircraft, or by boat from Dinorwic Landing,

the Trans Canada Highway and then 10km along an old logging road

to the lake.

1.2 Property

The Whitewater property presently totals 1,082 ha comprising

67 unpatented mining claims.

The purpose of the current work was to extend the geological

survey to cover the newly acquired northern claims (ie. Northern

Extension) (Figure 2).

As of February 1, 1989 the Northern Extension claims were in

good standing. The status of the claims is summarized in

2. PREVIOUS WORK

2.1 Minnehaha Gold Occurrence - Glatz Option

The first reported work on the property was the development

in 1905, of a 30m shaft and 7.6m crosscut on the Minnehaha gold

occurrence on the Glatz Option (Corkill 1907; 1909). A 7.6m pit

was sunk and some trenching was completed in 1908, at which time

operations ceased (Corkill 1909) . The property was reactivated

in 1910 and a 12.2m adit was established in 1911.

The property was staked in 1982 and optioned in 1983 to

Asamera Minerals Inc. Asamera Inc. carried out a ground magnetic

and electromagnetic survey, humus and lithogeochemical surveys and

geological mapping over the entire claim group.

The claims subsequently lapsed and the prospect was staked by

A. Glatz (a Dryden prospector) in late 1987. Glatz collected three

samples, one obtained from an outcrop near an old test pit returned

a value of 4.80g Au/t. Two grab samples from the dump pile in the

vicinity of a 30.5m deep shaft returned values of 2.74g Au/t and

2.06g Au/t respectively.

In 1987 the OGS examined the property and collected grab

samples from the dump pile at the aforementioned shaft. The

samples yielded values of 60ppb Au, 1350ppb Au and a value of 14ppb

Page 10: BOND GOLD CANADA INC. REPORT ON A GEOLOGICAL · PDF fileWHITEWATER PROPERTY TURTLEPOND LAKE AREA, ONTARIO February, 1991 Toronto, Ontario sv ft. SUMMARY In July 1989, Bond Gold Canada

Au from a pyritic wallrock sample. A grab sample from the wallrock

of the test pit returned 5,700ppb Au, while a sample from the

quartz vein material returned 490ppb Au.

3.0 REGIONAL GEOLOGY

The property is located in the Manitou-Wabigoon Lake belt of

the Wabigoon Subprovince of the Archean Superior Structural

Province. The Wabigoon Subprovince is bounded transitionally to

the north by the sediment-dominated English River Subprovince and

to the south, across the Quetico Fault, by the sediment-dominated

Quetico Subprovince (Figure 3).

The Wabigoon Subprovince is a major tectonostratigraphic

subdivision of the Superior Structural Province, which consists of

belts of metavolcanic rocks with lesser metasedimentary rocks that

are cut by granitic intrusions (Blackburn et al, 1985).

The mafic volcanic rocks in this subprovince consist of

massive basaltic and/or andesitic flows and subordinate pyroclastic

rocks.

The felsic volcanics generally consist of massive to well

banded lava flows with banded to massive tuff and tuff breccia.

Bands of clastic sediments, such as conglomerate, sandstone,

siltstone, argillite and greywacke are intimately associated with

the felsic volcanics in the region.

There are numerous mafic sills and dikes intruding both the

volcanic and sedimentary sequences. Most predate the main period

of folding (Goodwin, 1969), although some may be syntectonic.

The regional northeast-trending Manitou Straits Fault passes

approximately 1 km southeast of the Whitewater property. Numerous

north to north-northeast trending splays are associated with this

structure. These may represent the prime control on gold

mineralization in the area.

3.1 Property Geology

Geological surveys were conducted on the Northern Extension

portion of the Whitewater property between July 16 and August 29,

1989. The geological maps (see Maps 1, 2 and 3) are included in

Appendix 1.

The predominant rock types found during the mapping survey

include massive to pillowed intermediate and mafic metavolcanic

flows, and their fragraental equivalents.

The rocks are light to dark green and fine- to coarse-grained.

The coarser-grained flows are gabbroic to dioritic in texture. The

Page 13: BOND GOLD CANADA INC. REPORT ON A GEOLOGICAL · PDF fileWHITEWATER PROPERTY TURTLEPOND LAKE AREA, ONTARIO February, 1991 Toronto, Ontario sv ft. SUMMARY In July 1989, Bond Gold Canada

fine-grained volcanic flows are generally massive, showing some

weak foliation. The volcanic flows are commonly amygdaloidal , with

quartz, carbonate, chlorite and epidote filled amygdules.

Feldspar phenocrysts may also be present within the fine

grained volcanic, or amygdaloidal, flows. The phenocrysts range

in size from 1mm to 5cm.

The amygdules are generally spherical to oblate in plan view.

Deformation can be observed in cross section where the amygdules

have been stretched in the c-axis direction. The amygdules are

commonly weathered out, giving the rock a vesicular flow

appearance.

Pillowed flows are present on the property. They are

characterized by dark green pillow selvedges and light green inner

cores with an axis of elongation up to 0.5m.

Quartz, carbonate, chlorite and epidote amygdules are very

common within the pillowed flows. The configuration of the

amygdules is often the only indicator of the shape of the pillowed

flow. When local deformation and metamorphism has obscured the

diagnostic selvedge, the distribution of the amygdules remain to

suggest the pillow precursors (Figure 4).

The flow breccias identified on the property are monolithic.

3) If the pillow selvages are obscured, a pod-like pattern of amygdules remains, suggesting the precursor flow was pillowed.

11The fragments are angular to sub-rounded with no apparent sorting

or bedding. Although the fragments are compositionally similar,

they may differ in colour, grain size and texture. The brecciated

flows commonly grade into massive units.

Carbonatization associated with the volcanic flows is evident

as small carbonate stringers and amygdules uniformly distributed

throughout the rock. Carbonate (and carbonate with chlorite) is

also present within sheared areas of the metavolcanics. Satterly

(1941) suggests that the carbonate-chlorite schists are derived

from intermediate to basic lavas, and that the presence of

carbonate alteration has little significance as a pathfinder to

gold mineralization. Disseminated sulphide mineralization may be

present without significant gold values.

The intrusive rocks on the property are medium to coarse

grained, dioritic to gabbroic in composition. As no contacts were

observed, clear intrusive relationships were not apparent.

Therefore, some of the outcrops defined as intrusive may also be

a product of slow cooling or the recrystallization from

metamorphism.

Some outcrops are so altered and sheared (with an alteration

assemblage consisting of carbonate, quartz and chlorite) that the

protolith could not be discerned.

3.2 Petrography

A petrographic study was carried out on 16 representative rock

samples from the Whitewater property (including the North

Extension). The study was undertaken to determine the metamorphic

grade, the products of alteration, and to identify the rock. The

following was concluded from the study:

1. The rock assemblage is more felsic in composition than

mafic. Observations and identification focused on the

origin of the quartz in the samples. A portion of the

quartz seemed to be clearly introduced during alteration,

as it occurs as fine veinlets and/or stringers. In

contrast, there is an abundance of very fine-grained

quartz found in the more siliceous samples that may be

primary, suggesting an igneous origin. The felsic

constituents present in the rock suggest they are

intermediate (ie. andesite to quartz andesite) in

composition.

2. Products of alteration identified by the petrographic

study were similar in their mineral assemblage for each

of the intermediate, mafic and intrusive rock samples.

The alteration assemblage was dominated by epidote,

chlorite, bleaching and uralitization (araphibolitization)

Page 17: BOND GOLD CANADA INC. REPORT ON A GEOLOGICAL · PDF fileWHITEWATER PROPERTY TURTLEPOND LAKE AREA, ONTARIO February, 1991 Toronto, Ontario sv ft. SUMMARY In July 1989, Bond Gold Canada

13

of pyroxene, and minor silicification. The metamorphic

grade of this assemblage is essentially greenschist

facies.

3. Some of the samples identified as mafic flow containing

chlorite knots appear to have a plutonic protolith (ie.

gabbro). The chlorite knots are the product of the

alteration of pyroxene into amphibole and chlorite.

4. A number of samples previously identified as flow breccia

appear to be massive to foliated, intermediate to mafic

volcanic flows. The fragments described in hand specimen

are identified as epidote aggregates named epidosite.

Epidosite consists essentially of massive aggregates of

very fine, prismatic epidote grains, totally replacing

the mineralogy, including feldspar microlites. The

identification of the rock was based on the lack of sharp

contacts between fragments and groundmass, a

characteristic expected in a breccia. The composition

and texture of the groundmass and aggregates are similar,

the only difference being the degree of alteration.

4.0 ALTERATION

The alteration encountered on the property is for the most

part weakly developed. Alteration may be classified by its

Page 18: BOND GOLD CANADA INC. REPORT ON A GEOLOGICAL · PDF fileWHITEWATER PROPERTY TURTLEPOND LAKE AREA, ONTARIO February, 1991 Toronto, Ontario sv ft. SUMMARY In July 1989, Bond Gold Canada

14

association with: a) mineralized shear zones and b) country rock.

Sericitization and iron carbonatization (ie. ankerite) are the

common types of alteration associated with shearing containing

sulphide mineralized quartz and quartz-carbonate veins.

Chloritization and carbonatization are the principal types of

alteration found associated with the host country rocks.

Replacement of amphibole by chlorite is observed in the coarse

grained volcanic rocks, with the ghost outlines of amphibole

crystals preserved. Weak carbonatization is present, characterized

by hair-line fractures filled with calcite.

5.0 MINERALIZATION

No significant gold values were found during the 1989

Exploration Program on the Whitewater property.

The mineralized zones are very similar in character. They are

intensely altered, sericitized, pyritized intermediate to mafic

flows cut by anastomosing quartz stringers. The zones have a

maximum width of 1 metre.

The mineralized zone found on the Johnson Option occurs within

an area of structural complexity and alteration that extends north

and northeast throughout the Whitewater-Kaminnassin-Turtlepond

Page 19: BOND GOLD CANADA INC. REPORT ON A GEOLOGICAL · PDF fileWHITEWATER PROPERTY TURTLEPOND LAKE AREA, ONTARIO February, 1991 Toronto, Ontario sv ft. SUMMARY In July 1989, Bond Gold Canada

15

Lakes area (C.E. Blackburn 1987). The shear zones are associated

with the Manitou Straits Fault, a regional fault structure that

controls most of the known gold mineralization in the area.

Petrography suggests the host rock for the gold bearing quartz

veins found on the Johnson Option is different in composition from

the host rock in the Upper Manitou Lakes area. The host rock

assemblage associated with gold mineralization on the Whitewater

Property consists of intermediate to mafic volcanic flow sequences.

In the Upper Manitou Lakes area, auriferous quartz veins occur

within, or in close proximity to, felsic to intermediate

pyroclastic rock and subvolcanic porphyry intrusives.

Despite differences in the lithological composition between

the two environments, gold is associated with quartz veins and

appears in both environments to be structurally controlled.

6.0 REGIONAL STRUCTURAL GEOLOGY

The Whitewater Property is located approximately 2km west of

the Manitou Straits Fault (Figure 9), which controls or is

associated with gold mineralization in the Upper Manitou Lake area

(Figure 3).

A subsidiary of the Manitou Straits Faults has been identified

on the Whitewater Property (K. Leonard, 1988) and named the Western

Page 20: BOND GOLD CANADA INC. REPORT ON A GEOLOGICAL · PDF fileWHITEWATER PROPERTY TURTLEPOND LAKE AREA, ONTARIO February, 1991 Toronto, Ontario sv ft. SUMMARY In July 1989, Bond Gold Canada

16

Branch of the Manitou Straits Fault (Figure 9).

The Lower Manitou Lake area is intruded by two genetically

distinct fault types. The first type is associated with intense

shearing, producing broad schistose, phyllitic and mylonitic bands

along which fault movement has occurred (i.e. the Manitou Straits

Fault). The second fault type is more brittle in nature and lacks

well developed schist zones. An example is the BQV shear zone on

the Johnson Option, which is a conjugate structure to the Manitou

Straits Fault.

Jens Touborg, consultant to B6C, has identified four regional

fracture sets (Figure 10). The dominant fracture set trends 067°,

the second and third set of lineaments form a conjugate set

relative to the Manitou Straits Fault oriented at 022° and 119"

respectively and a fourth set trending 152°.

Touborg's regional lineament interpretation concurs with the

structural information obtained at the property scale from the 1989

Exploration Program (Figure 3). In the Upper Manitou Lake area

(ie. Gold Rock Camp), gold mineralization is spatially associated

with the Manitou Straits Fault, which corresponds to the dominant

ENE trend delineated from the lineament map.

Conversely, gold mineralization on the Johnson Option has been

found along a NNE trending shear zone (ie. the BQV shear zone).

Page 21: BOND GOLD CANADA INC. REPORT ON A GEOLOGICAL · PDF fileWHITEWATER PROPERTY TURTLEPOND LAKE AREA, ONTARIO February, 1991 Toronto, Ontario sv ft. SUMMARY In July 1989, Bond Gold Canada

17

This orientation is conjugate to the Manitou Straits Fault.

The fourth fracture orientation is associated with late stage

dyke emplacement along a zone of dilatancy. The gold potential

along this structure is not known at this time.

6.1 Structural Geology

Structural mapping suggests four fracture systems on the

Whitewater Property. These trends are summarized on the stereonet

plot (Figure 6), and concur with the interpreted regional airphoto

lineament and airborne geophysical data compiled on the Whitewater

Property.

Chris Ludwig, BGC's Denver based geophysicist, reviewed the

airborne VLF-EM and magnetic data and has interpreted a subtle

N-S grain and several possible cross structures oriented at roughly

045°, 090° and 315°.

Lineament analysis indicates four predominant fabrics oriented

as follows:.

1) a northeast-southwest (045° - 225°) trend which

corresponds to the Manitou Straits Fault (C.E. Blackburn,

1979; OGS Map 2443 and Report No. 189).

Page 22: BOND GOLD CANADA INC. REPORT ON A GEOLOGICAL · PDF fileWHITEWATER PROPERTY TURTLEPOND LAKE AREA, ONTARIO February, 1991 Toronto, Ontario sv ft. SUMMARY In July 1989, Bond Gold Canada

18

2) a north-northeast south-southwest (010° - 190") trend

which corresponds to tension fractures. This structural

trend is associated with gold mineralization found on the

Johnson Option.

3) an east-west (080° - 260°) trend which corresponds to

tension fracturing.

4) a northwest-southeast (315°-135°) trend which corresponds

to dilatancy fractures associated with late stage dike

intrusion.

The fabrics plotted on the stereonet clearly illustrate an

example of a strain ellipsoid or an R-Type Riedel shear fabric

system (Figure 5).

In brittle - ductile shears, the brittle response of the rock

results in the formation of continuous fractures and vein

development. The vein may be parallel to the shear fabric or

oblique (tension fracture) to the shear fabric (Figure 5).

The structures are generally associated with alteration

products such as silicification, pyritization and sericitization.

This alteration assemblage was found during the 1988 mapping

program along the auriferous BQV shear zone on the Johnson Option.

The gold mineralization on the Johnson Option is associated

with the NNE-SSW structural trend which represents tension

fracturing associated with the Manitou Straits Fault.

No mineralization has been found associated with the E-W

structural trend, however the potential of this structure could be

as significant as the NNE-SSW BQV structure.

Figure 7 Development of R-Type Riedel shear fractures

in a system of brittle-simple shear (after Tchalenko

1970).

The data shown on Figure 7 indicates that R-type Riedel shears

are the most dilatant and therefore are attractive targets for gold

mineralization.

Directional axis D represents the Manitou Straits fault, axes

P and R represent oblique shearing tension fractures. Axis R

represents dilatancy fractures which corresponds to the latest

structural event. This fabric is for the most part parallel to

maximum compression, and therefore, perpendicular to the Manitou

Straits Fault system.

7.0 CONCLUSIONS

The 1989 mapping, sampling and stripping program carried out

on the Whitewater Northern Extension grid, the extension of the

Johnson grid, and the Moose Bay reconnaissance areas, did not

outline any significant gold mineralization.

A total of 50 samples were collected and the best gold value

returned 1.71g Au/t.

8.0 RECOMMENDATIONS

Additional mapping, prospecting and stripping is warranted to

screen additional high priority ground geophysical anomalies and

favourable structural intersections and trends indicated by

lineament analysis in order to determine drill targets.
