The South Block appears to be largely hosted within the Black Lake Intrusive suite based on regional geology. However, local geology is more irregular than previously mapped, a view supported by geophysical data. Remnants of Hazelton volcanics, skarn-altered sediments, and widespread epithermal alteration are also present.
The eastern soil geochemical anomaly measures approximately 1.4 by 1 km and returned values up to 673 ppm Cu, 93 ppm Mo, and 0.531 ppm Au, along with a high-grade silver result of 59.3 ppm Ag in soils just outside of the main copper-molybdenum zone.
Rock & Soil Campaign (Completed) Airborne magnetics (Completed)
Airborne survey was conducted with a specially designed GEM Systems GSMP 35A Airborne Potassium Vapor high resolution magnetometers mounted on a non-magnetic stinger in a tri-axial array.
Rock samples collected during the program consisted of coarse-grained monzonite belonging to the Black Lake Intrusive Suite, a known host to porphyry-style copper systems.
