A program of collecting humus geochem samples was performed
over a limited portion of the claim group during >nily 12 to 28, 1984

Regional Geology
The regional geology is predominately schistose mafic Keewatin
metavolcanics overlain by intermediate
.
interlayers of mafic to gabbcoic sills.
.

These rocks were then

A strong correlation exists between the Humus Geochem
Survey, VLF conductor D and the rhyolite horizon opritaining the
pyrite mineralized outcrop at 32E, 1 -I- SON.

Conclusions

;
With the limited amount of humus geochem work done, it would
appear that the survey has some mertis CM the pitiparty.
Higher
than background values being associated with VLF coiiductor D and
the old trench workings,
nt is recommended that the remaining

portion of unsurveyed ground be completed next year (1985)
