SUMMARY

A magnetic survey with some selected rock specimens, was com

pleted over sixteen of the twenty claims comprising the James

Reid property from January 24 to March 10, 1988. The property is located approximately eight km northwest of Fort Hope, and one km

southwest of Rond Lake in the Thunder Bay Mining Division, Ontario. Access to the property is either by boat up the Albany

River from Fort Hope, or by float plane onto Rond Lake. The ter rain is overall flat with a thick growth of coniferous and

deciduous trees. The purpose of the survey was to locate prob

able zones of gold/sulphide mineralization similar to that occur

ring on the Noramco property to the immediate north as well as to

assist in the geological mapping of the property. An additional

purpose was to locate possible iron formations, which in the Pickle Lake area to the west contains gold in mineable

quantities.

The property is underlain by volcanics of precambrian age which

strike in a southwesterly arc and through Pickle Lake to the west and Red Lake to the southwest. Gold mineralization was dis

covered within a shaft sunk near the centre of the property. It

occurs within white quartz veins in tension fractures associated

with a porphyry dike. Exploration on the adjacent Noramco prop erty, through the use of IP and electromagnetic surveys, dis

covered gold values associated with sulphide-quartz veins within

wide shear zones.

The magnetometer readings were taken every 20 metres on 40-metre separated north-south lines with some detail lines spaced 20

metres. They were then diurnally corrected, plotted and con toured. Some rock specimens were chosen for petrographical ob

servations, where possible, during the magnetometer survey.——————————————————— —————-~ GEOTRONICS SURVEYS LTD. ————————————————————————

CONCLUSIONS

The magnetometer survey has produced three major anomalies

labelled A, B, and C, which reflect strong magnetite con

centrations within either intrusive sills or with pyrrho

tite in sulphide-rich shear zones.

The third anomaly, C, occurs striking off the northern boundary of the property and could represent an extension

of Noramco's wide shear zone H-12, which contains gold in

sulphide-quartz veins.

Any of the three anomalies, especially the more intense

parts, could be reflecting iron formations. Magnetic

anomalies in the Pickle Lake area, 80 km to the west, con

tained gold in mineable quantities.

RECOMMENDATIONS

Detail geological mapping should be conducted to further qualify the magnetometer survey results, help to determine the parameters of follow-up geophysical surveys, and to locate possible areas of mineralization.

All three anomalies should be covered by a MaxMin HLEM sur vey to determine whether the magnetic zones are conductive, and if they are, the parameters of each conductor. This

will result in more accurate drill targets. This survey should be conducted such that the survey lines are run at

right angles to the apparent strike of each conductor.

IP and resistivity surveys should be conducted on the prop erty over the same lines as the MaxMin survey. This will help determine whether sulphides occur with the magnetic

sources, and thus where gold is likely to occur.

INTRODUCTION AND GENERAL REMARKS

This report discusses the survey procedure, compilation of data and the interpretation of a magnetic survey carried out over the

James Reid property between January 18, 1988 and March 17, 1988.

Mobilization and demobilization within this period occurred from

January 18th to 23rd and March 11th to 17th, inclusive, with the

magnetometer survey occurring continuously over the rest of this

period {January 24th to March 10th, inclusive).

The survey was carried out by Trans-Arctic Explorations Ltd.

under the field supervision of Patrick Crook, of Salmon Arm, B.C., field technician. He was assisted, alternately, by Tom

Gabert of Salmon Arm, B.C., Tom Yellowhead of Fort Hope, Ontario,

and Daniel Waswa of Fort Hope, Ontario. A total of 65.15 line km

of magnetometer survey were completed at a 20-metre station interval, (3.18 of these km done as detail work) and 5.12 km of base and tie lines were done as well.

HISTORY OF PREVIOUS WORK

The history of previous work includes 514 feet of diamond drill ing in four holes during the months of September and October, 1986 using an "X-ray" drill with a 7/8-inch diameter core. Drill holes were sunk to trace the eastern and western extensions of veins encountered within the shaft.

Previous history is quoted from J.E. Londry's July, 1987 report:

"The property on which the mine shaft is located, was first staked during 1927 by Lorne Howey (a well known Canadian prospec tor) and associates. The claims were staked as a result of locating gold-bearing quartz veins in the local volcanic rocks.

"Shaft sinking was started in February 1928, and by September had been put down to a depth of 100 feet where a level was estab lished and some drifting and cross-cutting was completed. During the summer of 1928 extensive prospecting was also done on the surface. One vein, striking east-west was uncovered and trenched in various places for a distance of about 575 feet east of the shaft.

"At that time E.M. Burwash, a geologist working for the Ontario Department of Mines, reported in the Department's annual report, Volume XXXVII - Part 2, 1929, assays from this vein averaging about 1.0 oz. gold per ton across an average width of 34.5 inches.

"No further exploration was carried out until 1935, when the property was taken over by Port Hope Consolidated Gold Nines. This company pumped the water from the mine workings and

l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l

continued the exploration and development of the 100 foot level. A total of about 250 feet of drifting and cross-cutting was completed during this phase of the work. At this time a new ore shoot was opened up on the 100 foot level. It consists of a quartz vein that was followed for a distance of 25 feet, striking diagonally to an east-west porphyry dike with which the main ore zone is associated. The average grade in this vein is reported to be $21.32 per ton with the price of gold at $35.00 per 02., but the width of the vein is not known.

"About 5000 feet of diamond drilling was done from surface at this time, but no assay results from this drilling are available.

"in 1946 Golden Hope Mines Limited was incorporated to acquire the property, and in the autumn of that year, a magnetic survey was made by the firm of Koulomzine, Geoffrey and Brossard of val D'Or, Quebec. A major northwest-southeast striking fault was implied by that survey, but no further work was done at that time.

"Another exploration program was done during 1958 and 1959. At this time, surfa.ce sampling was carried out and some bulk samples were sent for testing, but in 1959 the work was suspended because of lack of funds.

"The claims expired on June 24, 1982 and four claims were re- staked around the shaft area on June 25, 1985 by Mike Labchuk and John Londry. Two more claims were staked during the month of October, 1984, to make a group of six. During this time, a mag netometer and VLF-EM survey had been carried out over the six claims, the number of which are TB-651376 to TB-651379 inclusive and TB-740028 and TB-740029. A strong magnetometer anomaly was located striking north of west and extending to the north-west boundary of the six claim group.

"During the last of October, 1985, fourteen more claims were staked to increase the property to its present size of twenty contiguous mining claims.

"In November, 1985, the titles of the original six claims were transferred to Robert James Reid. The titles of the remaining fourteen claims were also transferred to Robert James Reid in August, 1986."

GEOLOGY

The following is quoted from Londry's July, 1987 report on the property:

"The property is underlain by rocks of Precambrian age. Located in the Patricia district near the edge of the Hudson Bay lowlands in the Canadian shield, the property lies within a broad band of volcanic rocks that extend westward from Fort Hope through Pickle Lake, about 80 miles to the west, and then continues in a south westerly arc, passing north of Lac Seul, to extend westward beyond the mining community of Red Lake, 150 miles to the south- west and not far from the Manitoba border.

"The Keewatin volcanic rocks vary in composition from mafic to felsic and are intruded throughout by various masses, dikes and sills that may be acidic, basic, porphyritic or pegmatitic in nature.

"Locally the property is underlain by both basic and felsic vol canics, although much of the exact nature of the geology is inferred, because of the scarcity of outcrops.

l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l

"The property appears to be underlain by basic volcanics in con tact with a mass of granite instrusive to the south. However, the geology in the shaft area consists of medium to acidic volcanics which are intruded by porphyry dikes striking east-west and dipping steeply to the south."

MINERALIZATION

The following has been quoted from Londry's July 1987 report on the property:

"The gold showings around the shaft appear to be associated with a porphyry dike which has been traced for 1,000 feet by trench ing, it is about six feet wide and dips 80 degrees to the south and strikes east-west. White quartz veins, occurring in tension fractures in the volcanic rocks near the contact with the por phyry dike, carry gold values. One vein that cuts through the upper part of the shaft is reported to have exhibited abundant visible gold. Highgrade was also reported in the workings on the hundred foot level, but it is not known whether the vein under- gound is the same as the one at surface."

"Other areas where mineralization may occur but which cannot be noted directly because of the lack of rock outcrops, is in the north and western area of the property. The areas of particular interest are those areas of magnetic highs that were located on claim TB - 651376 and shown on the magnetometer survey map dated February 1985. The interest in these areas is enhanced by the fact that a soil sample taken along line 800 W south of the mag netic anomaly, yielded an anomalous gold value. This sample was taken near a stream that drains the western area of the property and which may originate near or cross a zone carrying gold miner alization.

"Another aspect of these magnetic anomalies is that they may be caused by the presence of iron formation in the volcanics. The mining community of pickle Lake, about 80 miles west, owes its existence to the fact that iron formations (which show up as mag netic anomalies) carry gold values in mineable quantities. If the magnetic anomalies in the northern area of the property are caused by iron formation, they may also carry gold values, as the Fort Hope area lies on the eastern extension of the same volcanic belt as that at Pickle Lake. Also, gold values occur elsewhere on the property (shaft area), increasing the possibility that other mineralized zones may also carry gold".

Another interesting feature noted by Londry is the occurrence of a large gabbro diorite sill about 275 metres south of the shaft area and about 180 metres wide.

MAGNETIC SURVEY

(A) Instrumentation and Theory

The magnetic survey was carried out with a model MP-2 proton precession magnetometer, Serial no. 8110777, manufactured by Scintrex Limited of Concord, Ontario. This instrument reads out directly in gammas to an accuracy of +1 gamma, over a range of 20,000 - 100,000 gammas. The operating temperature range is -35* to +50* C, and its gradient tolerance is up to 5,000 gammas per meter.

Only two commonly occuring minerals are strongly magnetic, mag netite and pyrrhotite; magnetic surveys are therefore used to detect the presence of these minerals in varying concentrations. Magnetics is also useful as a reconnaissance tool for mapping

1geologic lithology and structure since different rock types have different background amounts of magnetite and/or pyrrhotite. A third highly magnetic mineral, ilmenite, sometimes occurs within gabbro intrusives, but is quite rare.

(B) Field Procedure

Across the approximate centre of the claim a westerly-striking baseline was established. The survey lines were put in perpen dicular to the base line, that is, north-south with stations established every 20 m.

Readings of the Earth's total magnetic field were taken at the 20 m stations along the lines.

The diurnal variation was monitored in the field by the closed loop method to enable the variation to be removed from the raw data prior to plotting. Base stations for this method were located every 40 metres on the base line, and the primary base station located at L O on the baseline.

(C) Compilation of Data

An arbitrary value of 56,500 gammas was subtracted from each reading and the residuals plotted along the survey lines on map 4 at a scale of 1:2,000. The values range from 59,294 to 70,552 gammas, to give a range of 11,258 gammas. Contours were drawn in at a 100-gamma interval for values below 60,000 gammas, and at a 500-gamma interval for values above this level.

GEOLOGICAL NOTES AND SAMPLE SPECIMENS

Some rock specimens for petrographical observation were taken andoccassional notes were made on the strike and dip of geologicalstructure by Pat Crook, field technician. It was done along thegrid lines while the magnetometer survey was carried out. Themapping is quite limited due to the property being greatlycovered by overburden. The geological notes and location of rockspecimens are shown on maps 3 and 4 at a scale of 1:2,000.

DISCUSSION OF RESULTS

The ground magnetometer survey has produced very promisingresults, and has shown three good linear trends labelled A, B,and C, striking across the property in nearly westerly and north easterly trends. The background magnetic field of the propertyis relatively quiet, varying approximately 400 gammas from about59,500 to 60,000 gammas. This range is very likely the reflec tion of the basic volcanics of the Keewatin volcanics.

Magnetic highs, that is, containing values above 60,000 gammas,in all likelihood reflect varying concentrations of magnetitewithin porphyry dikes and/or sills such as those encounteredwithin and near the shaft. The most prominent magnetic highoccurs in the southeastern quadrant of the property, and reachesa value of 70,552 gammas (or 10,552 gammas above background).

Anomaly A is the longest anomaly on the property, curving up from52E where is strikes easterly to 136W where it strikes west-northwesterly. This anomaly is open both to the east and to thewest, and is typically an 800-gamma high (above background), withlocalized highs reaching up to a magnitude of 3,900 gammas nearanomly B.

Anomaly A occurs approximately 300 metres south of the shaft and averages about 130 metres wide. Structural mapping within the area of anomaly A shows strike directions agreeing very well with the strike on anomaly A. This evidence indicates that this anomaly is therefore due to magnetite.within the gabbro-diorite sill occurring at this same location. Anomaly A represents a good target for further exploration, since it could be associated with the porphyry dikes near the shaft, which have associated gold. Rock specimen S-K, taken coincident with anomaly A on line 32E, gives an anomalous gold value, suggesting gold is associated with this anomaly.

Anomaly B, about 150 metres south of A, is the strongest magnetic anomaly on the property, reaching a peak of 70,552 gammas — over 10,000 gammas above the background level. This anomaly has a length of at least 800 metres subparallel to anomaly A, and in two separate parts, to exhibit a near linear trend. Such high magnetic field values suggest a concentration of magnetite within either a porphyry dike or a gabbro-diorite sill similar to that causing anomaly A.

Anomaly C occurs within the northwestern quadrant of this grid, striking at least 1,300 metres at approximately N60*E, and open both to the northeast and to the southwest. This anomaly is wider than either A or B, and the near-linear trend and high magnetic values at its northern end, suggest that this anomaly could be structurally controlled, or perhaps caused by a dike or sill similar to that producing anomaly A. A dipole with an amplitude of 6,350 gammas occurring at the northern end suggests a local concentration of magnetite. A widening of the anomaly between 72W and 116W suggest the causative source {perhaps a sill, or a shear zone) widens as well.

Another very likely explanation of anomaly C involves the results of Noramco's exploration of their property to the immediate north. A wide shear zone, named H-12 f strikes westerly very close to the James Reid property and has produced good gold values. It is possible that anomaly C reflects an extension of zone H-12, and thus warrants further exploration.

A magnetometer survey completed on the four central claims in 1985 produced two good anomalies within claim TB-651376 (see Londry's report Feb. 1985). The positions and orientations of the contours show some correlation with those of anomaly C, and thus could reflect the same, or a related, geologic system. The contours at the southern edge of that survey show an east-west orientation which agrees with the orientation of anomaly A.

Any of the anomalies A f B, or C, could be reflecting iron forma tions, especially the stronger or more intense parts of the anomalies. As Londry states in his July, 1987 report, iron for mations in the Pickle Lake area, 80 km to the west, contain gold in mineable quantities. Thus the stronger parts of the anomalies become prime explortion targets.
