Stumpy Bay Property Shakespeare Twp., Sudbury Mining Division
Introduction:The Stumpy Bay Property contains copper-bearing sulphide mineralization and
precious metals in sheared and silicified Huronian metasediment s. Intrusive rocks which host Ursa Major Minerals recently discovered Cu, Ni, PGM deposit also intrude the Huronian metasediments on the Stumpy Bay Property and these intrusive rocks represent the footwall to the Ursa Major discovery. The objective of the 2003 work program was to locate and outline geophysical anomalies with a similar strike to the Ursa Major PGM discovery within the footwall intrusive rocks. A grid was established along the northern boundary of the Stumpy Bay Property and a magnetometer and VLF geophysical survey was conducted.
Property Location and Access:The Stumpy Bay Property is located in Lots 2 *fe 3, Concession V, Shakespeare
Township. UTM co-ordinates: 436000E, 5I32000N. The claim group consists of 9- 16ha units numbered 1231439, 1231440, 1231441 (Figures 2 ft 3).
Access to the property is provided by an all weather road ( Agnew Lake Road) from the town of Webbwood. north to Agnew Lake, then by boat or over the ice to the claim group along the north shore of Agnew Lake and Stumpy Bay (Figure l). The town of Webbwood is located approximately 55 miles west of Sudbury, Ontario on Hwy. 17.

Regional Geology:
The Huronian Supergroup is an assemblage of sedimentary and subordinate volcanic rocks which lie unconformably on Archean rocks of the Superior Province and forms the eastern part of the Southern Province. The Supergroup can be subdivided into 4 groups which have variable thicknesses (thickening toward the southeast). In ascending stratigraphic order these groups are the Elliot Lake, Hough Lake, Quirke Lake and Cobalt groups.
Intensive exploration of the Huronian Supergroup in the late 50's and early 60's as a result of the discovery of uranium deposits in the Elliot Lake and Espanola areas (l 95 O's) has provided researchers with an excellent data base. Uranium deposits associated with a quartz pebble conglomerate of the Matinenda Formation and a suite of volcanic rocks are what characterizes the oldest basal Elliot Lake Group. The Hough Lake and Quirke Lake Groups comprise two cyclic repetitions of a lower conglomeratic unit (Ramsay Lake 8i Bruce Formations), a middle pelite-greywacke unit (Pecors and Espanola Formation), and an upper sandstone unit (Mississagi & Serpent Formations). The Cobalt Group consists of the Gowganda, Lorrain, Gordon Lake and Bar River Formations. These formations contain repetitive conglomerate-pelitic-sandstone sequences much like the Hough Lake and Quirke Lake Group (Card, 1977).
The Huronian rocks record rapid deposition by facies migration of mainly immature clastic sediments that were derived from a dominantly felsic plutonic terrane to the North, and were deposited in the form of a southeastward thickening wedge on the Southern flank of the Superior Province craton. It has been surmised that recurrent glaciation played a major role in the development of the Huronian sequence. According to this model, the conglomerates represent the direct deposit of several major continental- marine glacial episodes, the pelitic rocks are post-glacial transgressive deposits and the sandstones represent regressive, prograding fluvial deposits. Pettijohn (1970) has pointed out that the Huronian sequence may also represent the deposits of a series of regressive marine cycles that rarely, if ever, became emergent surfaces of accumulation (Card, 1977).
The Huronian Volcanic sequence of the Sudbury area (the eastern volcanic rocks) are similar to those of Archean greenstone belts comprising thick accumulations of mafic, intermediate and felsic flows, pyroclastics and interflow sediments. The Huronian metavolcanics are slightly richer in K2O than many of the early Precambrian volcanic suites which may suggest an increase in K2O within the mantle over time. The volcanic accumulations may represent fissure-type eruptions whose emplacement was controlled by early marginal faults. The Elsie Mountain, Stobie and Copper Cliff Formations represent one major mafic-felsic volcanic cycle while the felsic Creighton Granite and related mafic Gabbro-Anorthosite plutons are related closely to the volcanic accumulations in time, space and possibly genesis (Card, 1977 A 1978).
Regional Geology con't:
Several Igneous intrusions are spatially associated with the rocks of the Huronian Supergroup, including the Nipissing Gabbro intrusive suite. The intrusions extend from Sault Ste. Marie through the Sudbury Region and from Cobalt through the Gowganda regions (Lightfoot A Naldrett, 1996). Precise U-Pb geochronology on magmatic baddeleyite from Nipissing Gabbro has yielded ages of 2219 +I- 3.6 Ma from the Gowganda area, 2212 +I- 2 Ma from the Sudbury area and 2217 +I- 4 Ma, 2210 +/-3.S Ma from the Cobalt area (Lightfoot & Naldrett, 1996). The Nipissing intrusive rocks form dikes, sills and undulating sheets which range in thickness from a few hundred metres to over a thousand metres (Lightfoot A Naldrett, 1996; Koziol & Chubb, 1996). Two pyroxene gabbro is the most common intrusive rock type, however, other varieties of Nipissing intrusive rocks include leucogabbro, granophyric gabbro and granophyre (Koziol & Chubb, 1996). The Nipissing intrusives southwest of Sudbury (between Sudbury & Blind River) are elongated parallel to the main structural fabric of the Murray Fault System (Card, 1978) and are typically amphibole rich metagabbros consisting of albitic plagioclase and actinolite or actinolite and blue/green hornblende (Card, 1978).
These rocks have undergone upper greenschist to amphibolite facies regional metamorphism and deformation that may be related to the Paleoproterozoic Penokean Orogeny which occurred between 1900 and 1850 Ma (Lightfoot St Naldrett, 1996). Buchan 8c Card (1985) believe that the emplacement of the Nipissing Gabbro may be related to faulting associated with the deposition of the Huronian strata (Lightfoot SL Naldrett, 1996). Nipissing Gabbro bodies have been folded along with the Huronian sequence and are thus typically conformable with regional structures. Relatively late deformation of the Nipissing is most pronounced West of the Sudbury Basin, particularly eastward from the Baldwin Anticlinorium towards Sudbury (Card, 1978). The degree of metamorphism and deformation associated with Nipissing intrusives suggests that these rocks were emplaced after initiation of early major folding, but prior to later deformation and regional metamorphism (Card, 1978).
Distribution of Nipissing Gabbro is generally related to major regional faulting, but is also commonly spatially associated along the contacts between massive conglomeratic units (Ramsey Lake, Bruce, Gowganda Formations) and siltstone, sandstone and calcareous facies (Espanola Formation) within the Huronian Supergroup (Card, 1978).
Basinal portions of Nipissing Gabbro intrusives consist of quartz diabase overlain by hypersthene gabbro accompanied by an overlying vari-textured gabbro with pegmatoidal patches. Arches consist of vari-textured gabbro overlain by quartz diorite, granodiorite, granophyre and aplitic granitoids. Intrusives are typically undifferentiated and consist of basal quartz diabase overlain by gabbro. Differentiation into hypersthene gabbro and more felsic phases like granophyre and granodiorite occur less frequently and are the exception rather than the rule (Lightfoot & Naldrett, 1996).
Regional Geology con't:
Nipissing intrusives are dominantly Tholeiitic with more evolved magmas trending towards calc-alkaline compositions. The geochemistry of the Nipissing suite is consistent with features of Phanerozoic Continental Flood Basalts (Lightfoot A Naldrett, 1996).
Several other intrusive rock suites, such as the East Bull Lake, Agnew Lake (Shakespeare/Dunlop) Gabbro-Anorthosite Intrusives, Croker Island and Cutler intrusions are spatially and perhaps genetically associated with both the supracrustal development and subsequent dynamothermal metamorphism of the Huronian Supergroup.
Property Geology:
i) Lithology:
The Stumpy Bay Property is predominantly composed of Huronian sediments and mafic (gabbroic) intrusive rocks. Huronian rocks on the property consist of two groups, the Elliot Lake Group and the Hough Lake Group. Formations within the Elliot Lake Group include the Matinenda Formation which is predominantly feldspathic sandstone, protoquartzite, sub-greywacke, greywacke, argillite and siltstone, and the McKim Formation which is predominantly biotitic metapelite. Formations within the Hough Lake Group include the Ramsay Lake Formation which is predominantly a polymictic para conglomerate with a protoquartzite matrix, and the Pecors Formation which ranges from argillite to siltstone. Stratigraphically, the Hough Lake Group overlies the Elliot Lake Group.
The gabbroic rocks found within the Stumpy Bay Property intrude all of the Huronian lithologies. Card & Palonen mapped the intrusive rocks within the Stumpy Bay Property as Nipissing in age (approx. 2212 ma) (Card A Palonen, 1976).Textures range from massive, medium to coarse grained, undifferentiated metagabbro, to locally brecciated, sheared and strongly foliated biotite and tremolite rich rocks. Sulphides typically consist of l-307o finely disseminated pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite (+I- pyrite) making the rock weakly magnetic, with localized areas containing blebby chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite sulphide patches.
There is a 10-15 meter wide tremolite unit at UTM E0436559 fe N 5132385 (Zone 17, NAD 27) with approximately 100 meters of outcrop exposure. This may represent a meta-pyroxenite layer and possibly the lowest stratigraphic unit of the igneous intrusion. The tremolite or meta-pyroxenite unit has been mapped on the Falconbridge mining patents (Ursa Major option) to the north and west of the Stumpy Bay claim group and has also been recognized on the Big Swan Property located in Porter Twp. This unit is very anomalous in Pt and Pd in Porter Twp.
ii) Mineralization
Card and Palonen (1976), describe the Nipissing gabbro associated with the Falconbridge nickel, copper, PGE deposit located adjacent to the Stumpy Bay Property in Shakespeare Township (Figure 2) as being highly sheared, locally pegmatitic and containing abundant granophyre. Mineralization consisting of pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite and pentlandite is exposed over a strike length of 760 metres (2,500 feet) and for widths of 30 metres (100 feet) (Card A Palonen, 1976). The mineralized zone lies entirely within the gabbro, which strikes east-northeast, parallel to, and approximately 30 metres south of the contact with the gabbro and Mississagi Formation (Card A Palonen, 1976). Falconbridge Nickel Mines Limited estimates that the deposit contains 3 to 4 million tons of ore averaging G.34% nickel, Q.40% copper plus precious metals consisting of platinum, palladium, gold and rare earth elements (Card A Palonen, 1976).
This property, originally owned by the Sudbury Shakespeare Gold Copper Syndicate is now held by Falconbridge Nickel Mines Limited who have recently optioned the property to Ursa Major Minerals. Ursa Major is currently exploring the property for its Platinum Group Mineral (PGM) potential and made the following press release in October of2002:
OCTOBER 17, 2002 -13:45 EOTURSA Major Minerals Confirms Significant Near-SurfaceNickel, Copper, PlatinumGroup Metal Discovery at Shakespeare Project, Sudbury Area, Ontario.
TORONTO, ONTARIO-URSA Major Minerals Incorporated (URSA Minerals)is pleased to provide assay results from the recently completed drill program on the Company's nickel, copper, and platinum group element discovery in Shakespeare Township, located west of Sudbury, Ontario.
All five holes intersected a wide zone of significant near-surface nickel, copper, and platinum group element mineralization. Highlights of assay results received on the 3,493 ft (1,065 m) five hole program include hole U3-06 which intersected 265.8 feet (81.0 m) grading Q.66% nickel, G.61% copper, 0.47 g/t platinum, 0.54 g/t palladium and 0.27 g/t gold. With the assay results reported on the two discovery holes on July 23, 2002, including U3-04 which returned 292.8 ft (89.3 m) grading Q.57% nickel, G.64% copper, 0.56 g/t platinum, 0.61 g/t palladium and 0.32 g/t gold, URSA Minerals now has a total of 7 holes in the newly discovered zone.
The intersections to date have been consistent in both grade and width. The zone has been drilled over 3 sections at 200 foot (61 m) intervals and to a depth of approximately 500 feet (152 m). Intersections indicate true widths of approximately 160 feet (49 m) to greater than 200 feet (61 m). The zone remains fully open on strike in both directions and at depth. Additional zones are present in both the hanging wall and footwall in holes U3- 05 and U3-09. Holes U3-05, -06, and -07 were drilled across the mineralized structure from south to north and holes U3-08 and 09 were drilled from north to south.
ii) Mineralization con't:
The spatial proximity of the Falconbridge NI, CU, PGE deposit to the Stumpy Bay Property provides for the potential for similar mineralization to occur within the gabbro in the Stumpy Bay area. Prospecting of the mafic intrusive rocks along the north boundary of the Stumpy Bay Property in 2000, revealed t-3% blebby sulphides up to 0.5 cm in diameter within the gabbro. The sulphide blebs are composed of chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite, usually with chalcopyrite rimming pyrrhotite, suggesting a magmatic origin. Four samples, numbers MTOO-109 to 112 were taken from this area in 2000 and submitted for analysis. Assay results indicate anomalous platinum and palladium values ranging from 53 to 78 ppb combined PGEs (See Year 2000 Assessment File Report). The blebby chalcopyrite mineralization appears to strike in an east-west direction, parallel to the sedimentary contact and is continuous for over two hundred metres.
Structurally controlled copper, cobalt and precious metal rich mineralization associated with a silicified shear zone occurs within the Stumpy Bay Property. The Stumpy Bay shear zone is parallel to structures found within the Falconbridge Property and in Porter and Dunlop townships. Sulphide mineralization consisting of chalcopyrite, bornite, pyrrhotite and arsenopyrite occurs in a zone of silicified and brecciated Matinenda micaceous sandstone and pelite. The mineralized zone strikes northeast at 64.50, dips steeply northward and is conformable to primary bedding within the host sediments. Surface sampling and diamond drilling in the 1950's and 60's indicates that the mineralized shear zone averages Ipercent copper across 10 feet over a strike length of approximately 1900 feet.
Four grab samples taken in 2000 from trenches located along the shear zone and submitted for analysis assayed from t.6% to S.5% copper plus cobalt values ranging from 234ppm to 1882pm and highly anomalous gold (572 ppb AU) and silver (13.9 ppm Ag) (Year 2000 Assessment Report, sample numbers MTOO-001 to 004).
Geophysics
M. Turcott supervised the cutting 5.2 km of grid over the northern portion of the Stumpy Bay Property with an orientation that would match the Ursa Major Minerals grid to the north (Figure 4 8c Map 1) in January & February of 2003,. The corner post of the patented mining claims #35609, 35596 and 35597 owned by Falconbridge Ltd. is the common corner for claim #1231441 of the Stumpy Bay Property. The corner pin was located and the E/W and N/S boundary of patent #35609 was cut out to help control the grid boundaries and establish the property boundary (Figure 4 & Map 1). A baseline was established with an orientation of 0640 from the corner of patent # 35609 and claims #1231440 & 1231441 (Figure 4 & Map 1). Grid lines were cut every 200 feet at right angles to the baseline with stations every 100 feet. This was done to coincide with the Ursa Major grid located to the north of the Stumpy Bay Property for right angle orientation across geological structures, interpretation of the geophysical results and possible future work in conjunction with Ursa Major Minerals.

Geophysics con't:
i) Magnetometer Survey (M. Turcott Supervisor; Feb. 9 A 10,2003)
The instrument used for the magnetometer survey was a Scintrex Ltd. MF-2 Fluxgate Magnetometer which measures the vertical component of the earth's magnetic field. Readings are in Gammas with an accuracy of+l- 15 Gammas (Appendix 3 for instrument information).
Map 2 is a vertical field magnetic contour map, representative of data collected from the 5.2 km Stumpy Bay Property grid in February of 2003 from the northern portion of the property (Map 1). Stations were read every 50 feet and lines were spaced every 200 feet & oriented @ 3340 . All magnetic data has been corrected for drift (Appendix l, RAW DATA Sheets).To make all of the station readings positive, 2000 Gammas were added to every station. The magnetic background of the surveyed area is approximately -500 to -450 gammas (l 500-1550, Map 2).
Contour intervals based on 200 Gamma increments were used to visually interpret the magnetic data. Several magnetic anomalies with a strong positive relief and an east/west trending orientation were defined using the contour method. The most extensive anomaly occurs from line 9W, 16S to L3E, 27S and is coincident with a moderately strong VLF conductor (Map 2). This area is predominantly within the marsh area of the Stumpy Bay Property with little or no outcrop exposure (Map 1).
There is also a strong positive magnetic anomaly with flanking negative magnetic anomalies in the NW portion of the grid from L7W, 11S to L3 W, 16S. A VLF conductor is coincident with this magnetic high on L5W *fe L7W @ 12S and may represent a PGM + sulphide body similar to the mineralization discovered by Ursa Major Minerals immediately to the north of this location (Maps 1& 2).
ii) VLF (EM-16) Electromagnetic Response Survey (M. Turcott Operator; Feb. 9,10 A 21, 2003)
The instrument used for the electromagnetic survey was a Geonics Ltd. EM-16 (Appendix 4 for instrument information). The EM-16 VLF method uses military and time standard VLF transmissions as the primary field. The receiver (EM-16) is then used to measure the secondary fields radiating from local conductive targets. Readings are in percent CM)) In Phase (I/P) and percent (07o) Out of Phase (O/P or Quadrature).
Map 3 is a VLF electromagnetic profile map, representative of data collected from the 5.2 km Stumpy Bay Property grid in February of 2003 from the northern portion of the property (Map 1). Stations were read every 50 feet, lines were spaced every 200 feet *fe oriented @ 3340 . All readings were taken facing NW and the military transmission station Annapolis, Maryland (NSS) with a frequency of 21.4 kHz was used. Individual VLF Response Profiles and VLF data collected during the survey is included in Appendix 2.
10
VLF (EM-16) Electromagnetic Response con't:
Several VLF conductors with an E/W trend were defined using the EM-16 method to survey the Stumpy Bay grid (Maps 2 &3J. The most extensive conductor occurs from L3E, 27S to L17W, 20+50S. The strong positive Out of Phase or Quadrature response to this conductor suggests that there is conductive overburden present, however, the strong positive magnetic correlation with this conductor suggests that a sulphide body is likely present below the conductive overburden (Maps 2, 3 *fe Appendix 2). The dip of the conductor is likely to the north. The grid lines need to be extended further south to facilitate the collection of more VLF data to generate a more complete VLF response profile.
Several dislocations and interruptions of the conductor axis suggest that faulting or folding may have displaced the conductor. There is good geological evidence for regional drag folding, thrust faulting and other tectonic events in the area to support this interpretation.
There is also a weak VLF conductor with a coincident magnetic high from L5W, 12S to L7W, 11+50S and L7W, 10S (Maps 2 Se 3). The orientation of this conductor axis is approximately E/W with a northerly dip and is similar to the PGM + sulphide (Cu,Ni) mineralization trend outlined by Ursa Major Minerals immediately to the north of this location.
11
Conclusion A Recommendations:
The Stumpy Bay Property warrants further exploration. The property contains favourable intrusive and sedimentary lithologies which have the potential to host significant PGM and base metal mineralization. The demand for precious metals and in particular palladium and platinum metals for various industrial applications and modern technological advances will outstrip supply in the very near future.
Exploration for economic PGM deposits within Northern Ontario has resulted in significant discoveries, particularly the Ursa Major Minerals *fe Falconbridge Ltd. joint venture in Shakespeare Twp. Ursa Major Minerals has recently announced significant diamond drill intersections ^60 meters) of nickel A copper sulphides plus precious metals (PGM's) from their Shakespeare Property option. The Stumpy Bay Property is the footwall of the Cu/Ni/PGM deposit being explored by Ursa Major Minerals. Stumpy Bay is located less than V* mile to the southeast of this newly discovered mineralization, making it an attractive exploration target.
VLF and magnetic geophysical surveys conducted over the northern area of the Stumpy Bay Property in February of 2003 have defined several anomalies likely associated with sulphide mineralization. The trend of VLF conductors identified on the property during the survey is similar to the strike of the PGM + sulphide (Ni, Cu) mineralization discovered by Ursa Major Minerals. Several dislocations and interruptions of the conductor axis suggest that faulting or folding may have displaced the conductor. Further ground geophysics, soil sampling and diamond drilling are required to determine their orientation and possible economic significance.
Further exploration should also be conducted within the Huronian sediments to locate base & precious metal mineralization and to determine the viability of mining the highly siliceous sediments for silica flux in local smelters.
The Porter Syncline could be an excellent structural target for PGE mineralization. Recent exploration of Nipissing age intrusive rocks in Shakespeare, Dunlop and Porter Townships has shown that there is good potential for economic mineralization to occur.

Stumpy Bay PGM Property Vertical Field Component Magnetic Contour Map
Shakespeare Twp., Sudbury Mining District M. Turcott, February/2003
Vertical Field Magnetic Contour Map: Stumpy Bay PGM Property, Shakespeare Twp., Sudbury District
VLF Conductor Am
H. Tunxtt,
NOTE:This magnetic contour map is representative of data collected from the Stumpy Bay Property in February of 2003 from the northern portion of the property (Map l, 2002 Assessment Report). Stations were read every 50 feet and lines were spaced every 200 feet A oriented @ 3340.
The instrument used for the survey was a Scintrex Ltd. MF-2 Fluxgate Magnetometer which measures the vertical component of the earth's magnetic fleld. Readings are in Gammas with an accuracy of +J- 15 Gammas.
All magnetic data has been corrected for drift (see RAW DATA Sheets).To make all of the station readings positive, 2000 Gammas have been added to every station.
Contouring is based on 200 Gamma intervals.

country, a mound, large rock or sore Fijr.ilar object,
can be marked and used as a substitute for pickets.
4. Normal magnetometer survey procedures should te adhered
to for the remainder of tha survey.
5. Powerful magnets should be kopt nor^ th ;n l foot away
from the MF-2 instrument.

77 VLF Electromagnetic Unit
,-,ulir r-ii-..J ai'ti p.Tfsntsd axr.lusivsly by G'jonics LimitpH ths VLFmethod ofeTectromagnetic surveying has been proven to be a major advance in exploration geophysical instrumentation.
Since the beginning of 1965 a large number of mining companies have found the EM16 system to meet the need for a simple, light and effective exploration tool for mining geophysics.
The VLF method uses the military and time standard VLF transmissions as primary field. Only a receiver is then used to measure the secondary fields radiating from the local con ductive targets. This allows a very light, one-man instrument to do the job. Because of the almost uniform primary field, good response from deeper targets is obtained.
The EM16 system provides the in-phase and quadrature components of the secondary field with the polarities indicated.
Interpretation technique has been highly developed particularly to differentiate deeper targets from the many surface indications.
Principle of OperationThe VLF transmitters have vertical antennas. The magnetic signal component is then horizontal and concentric around the transmitter location.

By selecting a suitable transmitter station as a source, the EM 16 user can survey with the most suitable primary field azimuth.
The EM 16 has two receiving coils, one for the pick-up of tha horizontal (primary) field and the other for detecting any anomalous vertical secondary field. The coils are thus ortho gonal, and are mounted inside the instrument "handle".
The actual measurement is done by first tilting the coil assembly to minimize the signal in the vertical (signal) coil and then further sharpening the null by using the reference signal to buck out the remaining signal. This is done by a calibrated "quadrature" dial.
The tangent of the tilt angle is the measure of the vertical in-phase component and the quadrature reading Is the signal at right angles to the total field. All readings are obtained in per centages and do not depend on the absolute amplitude of the primary signals present.
The "null" condition of the measurement is detected by the drop in the audio signal emitted from the patented resonance loudspeaker. A jack is provided f o r'those preferring tha use of an earphone instead.
The power for the instrument is from 6 penlight cells. A battery tester is provided.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The VLF-transmitting stations operating for communications with submarines have a vertical antenna. The antenna current is thus vertical, creating a concentric horizontal magnetic field around them. When these magnetic fields meet conduc tive bodies in the ground, there will be secondary fields radiating from these bodies. This equipment measures the vertical components of these secondary fields.
The EM16 is simply a sensitive receiver covering the fre quency band of the new VLF-transmitting stations with means of measuring the vertical field components.
The receiver has two inputs, with two receiving coils built into the instrument. One coil has normally vertical axis and the other is horizontal.
The signal from one of the coils (vertical axis) is first minimized by tilting the instrument. The tilt-angle is calibrated in percentage. The remaining signal in this coil is finally balanced out by a measured percentage of a signal^ from the other coil, after being shifted by 90 O . This^coil"~ .Xs-.iiOiSially parallel tc the primary field. 3^.3 *"~"~
Thus, if the secondary signals are small compared to the primary horizontal field, the mechanical tilt-angle is an accurate measure of the vertical real-component, and the compensation #TY2-signal from the horizontal coil is a measure of the quadrature vertical signal.
SELECTION OF THE STATION
The magnetic field lines from the station are at right angles to the direction of the station. Always select a station which gives the field approximately at right angles to the main strike of the ore bodies or geological structure of the area you are presently working on. In other words, the strike of geology should point to the transmitter. Of course, 45 O variations are quite tolerable in practice.
The selection of the proper transmitting station is done by plug-in units inside the receiver. The equipment takes two selector-units simultaneously. A switch is provided for quick switching between these two stations.
To change a plug-in unit, open the cover on top of the in strument, and insert the proper plug. Then close the cover again.
Here is a list of some of the stcitiorui useful in Canada and United States.
Station NAA: Cutler, Maine Freq. 17.8 kHzStation NPG: Seattle, Washington Freq. 18.6 kHzStation NSS: Annapolis, Maryland Freq. 21.4 kHzStation NBA: Panama Freq. 24.0 kHz
For European use CBR: Rugby, England Freq. 16.0 kHzNWC: Australia Freq. 22.3 kHz
When ordering an instrument, consult GeonioF for latest information for best selection of stations.
TAKING A READING
The direction of the survey lines should be selected ap proximately along the lines of the primary magnetic field, at right angles to the direction to the station being used. Before starting the survey, the instrument can be used to orient oneself in that respect. By turning the instrument sideways, the signal is minimum when the instrument is pointing towards the station, thus indicating that the magnetic field is at right angles to the receiving coil ' inside the handle.
To take a reading, first orient the reference coil (in the lower end of the handle) along the magnetic lines. Swing the instrument back and forth for minimum sound intensity in the speaker. Use the volume control to set the sound level for comfortable listening. Then use. your left hand to adjust the quadrature component dial on the front left cor-,,,, ner of the instrument to further minimize the sni.mcU-.-After^. -flading "the ninirauiu liign^i strength en both adjustment^-,.--- ,^ .. read the inclinometer by looking into the piiall lens. Also,mark down the quadrature reading. j
i l
While travelling to the next location you can, if you wish, j keep the instrument in operating position. If fast changes j in the readings occur, you might take extra stations to pin- l point accurately the details of anomaly. j
The dials inside the inclinometer are calibrated in positive and negative percentages. If the instrument is facing 180 O from the original direction of travel, the polarities of the readings will be reversed. Therefore, in the same area take the readings always facing in the same direction even when travelling in opposite way along the lines.
92.
The lower end of the handle, will as a rule, point towards the conductor. The instrument is so calibrated that when approaching the conductor, the angles are positive in the in-phase component. Turn always in the sarre direction for readings and mark all this on your notes, trap", etc.
THE INCLINOMETER DIALS
The in-phase percentage scale is on the right. The left scale is the secant of the slope of the ground surface. You can use it to "calculate" your distance to the next station along the slope of the mountain.
(1) Open both eyes
(2) Aim the hairline along the slope to th3 rext station to about your eye level height ;ibove ground
(3) Read on the left scale directly thn distance necessary to measure along the slope to_advance^ Ion (ft) hori zontally
We feel that this will make your reconnaissance work easier. The outside scale on the inclinometer ir; calibrated in degrees just in case you have use for it.
PLOTTING THE RESULTS
For easy interpretation of the results, it '.s good practice to plot the actual curves directly or the survey line map using suitable scales for the percentage readings. The hor: zontal scale should be the same as your othir maps on the area for convenience.
INTERPRETATION
The VLF primary field's magnetic component is horizontal. Local conductivity inhoinogeneties will add vertical compon ents. The total field is then tilted Locally on both sides of a local conductor. This local vertical ffield is not al ways in the same phase as the primary field on the ground surface.-...The EM16 measures the In-phast- ana Quadrature"" components of the vertical field.
When the primary field penetrates the conductive ground'and rock, the wave length of the wave becomes vrry short, maybe only few tens of meters, depending on conductivity and fre quency .
At the same time the wave travels practical Ly directly down wards. The amplitude of the field aJ.so decreases very fast, completely disappearing within one wavelength. The magnetic field remains, however, horizontal.
Figure 7 shows graphically the length and phare angle of the primary field penetrating into a conductive material.
The phase shift in radians per meter and tJie attenuation in nepers per meter (t/e) is:
u,..f ( l(J -- c-mcluctivity
rrvio/m
Figure 7 also reminds of the fact that all "secondary fields have a small (or large in poor conductors) positive phase shift in the target itself due to its resistive component, and that the secondary fields have another negative phase shift while penetrating back to surface fron the upper edge of the target.
The targets are located somewhere in the d e nth scale (phase shift scale in this case) . Suppose we have semi-infinite vertical sheet target starting from the sur '"ac'j. Figure 8 shows that the total integrated primary fio'.d inphase and quadrature flux has a value of H- 0.5 and - ''.5 respectively.
These two charts can be used to analyze th^ Inphase and quadrature readings taken on both sides of ' .he target. If one knows the actual conductivity of the overburden and the rock, the task is easier. Because of the mn.ny variables involved the precise analysis is usually impossible.
Mostly encountered and easily solved prcblon is, however, the separation of surface conductors from the nore interest ing ones at depth. This is easily done by observing the negative quadrature signals compared to t.he usually positive or zero ones from the surface targets. See tha sample pro files 9 and 10. This way we can often tell if we have a more interesting sulfide target under a swamp for example.
Another use for the quadrature polarity Is : ; n the following a faultier a shear zone. Normally these wenk conductors give a fair amount of positive (the quadrature follows the in-phase polarity) quadrature. When we bavr a local sulfide concentration in these structures , we get a negative quadra ture response.
84-
All the interpretation is made easier by other indication of the depth to the target. The horizontal distance be tween the maximum positive and negative readings is about the same' as the actual depth from the ground surface to the centre of the effective area of the conductive body. This point is not the centre of the body, but somewhat closer to t* ' ti i^rso^f
Theoretically for spherical conducto}:, t.ho depth
h — 4jX where /^ X is the horizon ea."' distancebetween the max. points of ':he vertical field Hz .
The radius a ^ 1.3 h 3 /H z (max) .
For cylindrical body h 3: 0.86 //X
The radius a = 1.22 h \^Z (max) .
In these equations H z s l means 100 * on the equipment dial.
The determination of the depth is generally more reliable than the estimation of the actual dimension a. The real component of H z , which we should use in these calculations, decreases proportionally for a poorer conductor and with the depth in conductive material.
One can also draw some conclusions about tlv? clip and shape of the upper area of the conductor by observirg the smaller details of the profile. See the modelling curves.
A vertical sheet type conductor, if it comer? close to thesurface, gives a sharp gradient of large amplitude and slowroll-off on both sides.
Horizontal sheet should give a single; polarity en the edge of it, and again the opposite way on tho other edge.
When looking at the plotted curves, one not Lcrs that two adjacent conductors may modify the shape, of the anomalies for each one. In cases like this, one has l:o look for the steepest gradients of the vertical (plotted) field, rather than for the actual zero-crossings. Forget the word "cross over". Look for the centres of slopes on t: ! ie in-phase for location of targets.
86"
As v/ith any EM, the largest and best conductors give the highest ratio of in-phase to quadrature conponents. In VLF however, the surrounding conductive material influences the results so much that it is almost an irrelevant state ment except in a few cases. Also in practice most of the ore bodies are composed of different individual sections, and therefore one cannot use the in-phase/quadrature. .ratio as the sole indicator of the conductivity-size factor. In other words the characteristic response curve;:; are flat, much flatter than with modellina.
SOME NOTES FROM THE FIELD
It has been shown in practice that this instrument can be used (in proper areas) also underground in minps... The-..rax -ana pipes -insy. caus^: background, variations, I L w.3.s~ found-:, i one mine even at 1400 foot level, that the signal strength was good. By taking readings at two directions at each station, one could obtain a very good indicati.on about the location of the ore pockets in otherwise difficult geology.
On the other hand a thick layer of conductive clay can sup press the secondary field to a negligibly small value.
In mountainous areas one can expect a smooth rolling back ground variation. However, the actual sharper anomalies induced by conductive mineral zones can be usually easily recognized.
Faults and shear-zones can give anomalies, but not without a reason. There must be conductivity associated with them Reverse quadrature may indicate sulfide deposits in these structures.
Geonics invites any comments and interesting observations with the EM16 for the benefit of all users. These can be kept confidential if so desired.
SERVICING
Changing the batteries is done by removing the cover and changing the penlight batteries one by one. Please notice the polarities marked on each individual cell. To test the condition of the batteries, turn the instrument on, press the push-button on the front panel. There should be a whistling sound in the loudspeaker if the batteries are in useable condition. If the sound is riot heard, the battery voltage may be low.
It may be occasionally necessary to clean the contacts of the plug-in unit. For this, use a clean ra r that is very slightly moistened with oil. The oily rag '.s good also for the battery terminals.
If any repairs are necessary, we recommend '.hat the instru ment be shipped to Geonics Limited fer a thorough check-up and testing with proper measuring instruments.

NOTE:The geophysical grid established on the Stumpy Bay Property in Shakespeare Twp. is an of the Ursa Major Minerals grid located to the north and west of the property. The grid has stations every 100 feet and lines were spaced every 200 feet SL oriented @ 3340. A baseline was established at approximately 22S and oriented @ 0640 (at right angles to the grid lines). The E/W St N/S boundary of mining patent P 35609 & #1231440 Si 1231441 was cut out to establish the Stumpy Bay Property boundary and for grid location control.

NOTE:This magnetic contour map is representative of data collected from the Stumpy BayProperty in February of 2003 from the northern portion of the property (Map 1).Stations were read every 50 feet and lines were spaced every 200 feet A oriented @3340.
The instrument used for the survey was a McPhar MF-2 Fluxgate Magnetometer which measures the vertical component of the earth's magnetic field. Readings are in Gammas with an accuracy of+A- 15 Gammas.
AU magnetic data has been corrected for drift (see RAW DATA Sheets).To make all of the station readings positive, 2000 Gammas have been added to everystation.
Contouring is based on 200 Gamma intervals.
