INTHODUCTION

The property, discussed herein, consists of 10

unpatented and unsurveyed mining claims located in Macbeth

and Clement Townships in the Sudbury and Timiskaming Mining

Divisions, Province of Ontario*

The claims were staked in 1957 and in the summer

of 1959 a geological mapping program, some diamond dril

ling and some trenching was completed.

This report is based on Information obtained

front sources as set forth under "References" in this report,

PROPERTY

The property consists of 10 unsurveyed mining

claims numbered as follows:

8-103007 - S-103008

T-43908 - T-43915

This comprises 400 acres more or less of land

and land under water.

LOCATION AND ACCESS

The claims are located in Macbeth and Clement

Townships about 25 miles north of the hamlet of River Val

ley, Ontario.

A good all weather road passes through the claims

along the west side of Manitou Lake. This road connects

'^fv^'^fff^P^ll'V^'

with Highway 64 about 37 miles southwest of the property

and near the town of Field, Ontario.i

TIMBER

Most of the timber on the property consists of

second growth poplar and birch with some alders in the low

lying ground. There are, however, a few pine trees on the

property which rise well above the growing level of the

second growth timber.

TOPOGRAPHY

The most prominent topographic features on the

property are a group of high hills along the west side of

Manitou Lake. Elevation differences are of the order of

250-300 feet.

GENERAL GEOLOGY

All of the consolidated rocks on the property

are of Precambrian Age* These are covered to a large ex

tent by peat, gravel, boulders, sand, and clay of Recent

and Pleistocene age.

The predominant rook types are believed to be

of Timiskaming Age and consists principally of quartzite,

arkose, and greywacke. The rocks of Timiskaming Age are

tightly folded with iron formation and greenstones of Kee

watin Age. The sediments dip almost vertically confirming

a very close folding of the formations.

ST

.v.f .

; ; The rooks of Timiskaming and Keewatin* Age are1 .. j .- . - ' . ' " , , , :' intruded hy red and grey feldspar porphyries of Algoman - ' , ' ' "' age and diabase of Keweenawan age*

The rooks of Algoman age occur as small stocks and dikes. The Keweenawan diabase occurs as a flat lying

sill and ontorops near the northern boundary of the pro-

perty. These formations are intrusire into the older Timis- k ami n g and Keewatin rooks on the property*

Table of Formations

QUATERNARY

Reoent: Peat and stream sands.

Pleistocene: Gravel, boulders, and olay.

Great unconformity

PRECAMBRIAN

Keweenawan: Diabase.

Algoman: Red and grey feldspar. Porphyries.

Intrusive Contact

Timiskaming: Quartzite, arkose, greywacke.

Keewatin: Greenstone and iron formation.

ECONOMIC GEOLOGY

There are bands of almost pure magnetite in the

iron formation. The iron is interbanded with bands of si

liceous and calcareous sediments* While a oover of over

burden conceals much of the property it is believed that

the magnetite occurs as lense-like pods which vary in width

^f'v^v.;: -K'. . ,.,, ; ,, , . . ; ; - .; ,- . ...-, - from a few inches up to several feet; There may be several' S - V ':' '''-' ^ ' - ' ' ' ' ' '. ' -' ' '

lenses of magnetite arranged en echelon throughout the iron-' \

formation." f,;.- '

North of the iron formation and parallel to it

there is a sulphide occurrence or occurrences which strike

northwesterly as does the iron formation and dip vertically.

The prinoipal sulphides are pyrite and pyrrhotite with some

chalcopyrite.
