  • On the soil geochemistry survey, two main anomalous zones were located. Both occur on the northern part of the survey area and appear to be related to the low-amplitude magnetic high that, as discussed above, could be caused by meta-volcanics. Also both strike in an east-west direction, as do both of the magnetic highs,

    The more interesting anomalous zone occurs on the northern part of the mangetic high and on its eastern edge. It appears to be at least 400 to 500 m long and is open to the east. It is ex- tremely anomalous in silver (up to 8.8 ppm) and quite anomalous in molybdenum, zinc, lead and copper. There -are also anomalous values in nickel and chromium.

    I The second zone occurs a few hundred meters to the south of the low-amplitude magnetic high. This zone appears to be at least 1,500 m long, is open on the west side of the survey area and is narrower than the above-mentioned soil geochemistry anomaly. This zone is anomalous in silver, lead, zinc and copper. It also con- tains a few anoaalous values in nickel, chromium and molybdenum. Though this is a definite anomalous zone, the values are not as anomalous as that in the other soil geochemistry high.

    Both of these anomalies contain very little in anomalous results for gold. Considering that much placer gold was mined on the property as well as downstream to the east, it seems quite prob- able that gold mineralization occurs on the proprty. The lack of gold results in the soil geochemistry could be due to any or all of the following reasons:

    1. According to F. Marshall Smith, P.Eng., consulting geolo- gist and geochemist, the high chromium in the soils can prevent the gold from being seen in soil tests, even though it may occur in anomalous amounts.

    2. The spacing of the soil samples is relatively large, The mobility of gold in soils is quite low.

    3. In the lab, the samples were sieved to -80 mesh. Therefore, coarser gold (necessary for placer deposits) may have been sieved out.

    4. Clay deposits are noted throughout the survey area, some to

  • the north, but much more to the south. This can retard metals and metal ions from reaching the surface.

    In addition to the two above-noted soil geochemistry anomalies,

    four areas anomalous in nickel and chromium were also discov-

    ered. This was quite accidental, since the prime objective was to

    locate lode gold mineralization. The four areas are as follows,

    listed in order of exploration interest.

    Area 1 is located on the west side of the survey area on the

    boundary of XL 7 and 9 claims. his anomalous zone is open to the

    west but is at least 400 m long. It reaches a high of 1,018 pprn

    in nickel and 945 pprn in chromium. These results are very high

    considering the background in both metals is well below 100 pprn

    (probably about 40 to 50 pprn),

    Area 2 occurs principally on XL 4 claim. It also correlates

    directly with the magnetic high, and therfore, probably, a body

    of serpentinite, This is not surprising since nickel-chromium

    mineralization often occurs with ultramafics, such as serpentin-

    ite. This anomalous zone reaches a high of 354 ppm nickel and 269

    pprn chromium. The size is about 300 by 500 meters.

    Area 3 occurs on the XL 5 claim. It is open to the west but has a

    minimum length of 300 m. The magnetic survey did not cover this .

    area but the nickel chromium anomaly occurs on strike of the main

    magnetic high. Therefore this anomaly is also probably related to

    serpentinite. It reaches a high of 477 ppm nickel and 305 pprn

    chromium.

    On the XL 105 claim occurs the fourth anomalous area in nickel-

    chromium, This area contains only two anomalous samples but both

    are very high, and it occurs on the edge of the survey area. The

    nickel is as high as 539 ppm, and the chromium, 361 ppm.

  • .- .

    In conclusion, the results of the work to date are considered very encouraging. Though the nickel-chromium results are of ex- ploration interest worthy of follow-up work, it is felt the prime interest should continue to be lode gold. As a result the writer considers the multi-element anomaly located on the northern part of the low-amplitude magnetic high centered on line 2940 to be a priority. There is an excellent chance for locating mineraliza- tion in this area. Also of strong interest is the second multi- element anomaly located south of the low-amplitude magnetic high.

    Further exploration is recommended as follows:

    1. Soil sampling should continue to the east of the main anom- alous zone in order to determine the extent of this anom- aly. Also the soil anomalies (including the nickel-chromium ones) should be detail sampled, say, at 20-meter centers.

    Induced polarization-resistivity surveying should be done across the two multi-element soil anomalies, especialy the prime one on the east side of the survey area. The induced polarization should respond to any sulphides and/or graph- ite associated with or causing the soil geochemistry highs. The resistivity should respond to the mineralization as well since alteration, or graphite associated with any mineralization should be seen as resistivity lows. The pur- pose of the induced polariza t ion-resist ivi ty work would be to more accurately delineate the mineral zones, thus giving more accurate drill targets.

    Induced Polarization-Resistivity Survey XL Claims

    Dawson Mining Division, Yukon Territory

    Dear Sirs:

    The above-noted work was carried out in October, 1984 and has been completed. The following is therefore a summary report on the results and includes information given in the writer's pre- vious letter dated October 22, 1984.

    The work was done across soil geochemistry and magnetic anomalies revealed in previous work and reported on in a previous letter by the writer dated September 19, 1984. The purpose was to delineate the cztisatlve sources more precisely and to determine the possi- bility of sulphides occurring with or being the causative sources.

    The survey was run across three anomalous zones. Two were princi- pally anomalous in silver, molybdenum, zinc, lead and copper; and the one in nickel and chromium.

    The soil sampling and magnetic surveying were done on lines run- ning northeast-southwest. However, all indications were that the causative scurces were striking east-west, and therefore, of nec- essity, the IP-resistivity lines were run north-south. The one exception is the west boundary line which was run in a southeast direction along the southwest boundary of the previous survey

  • grid in order to check a chromium-nickel magnetic anomaly. The north-south lines run were 240W, 300E, 540E, 900E and 1140E.

    The first two lines that were surveyed, lines 540E and 900E, were run with the dipole-dipole array with a dipole length of 30 m and a dipole separation of 1 to 5. This gave a depth penetration of approximately 90 m. These survey parameters resulted in a fairly detailed pseudosection which was felt necessary since the size of the mineral zone that was being explored for was unknown. From this it was determined that the causative source was fairly large and therefore the remaining lines were surveyed with a dipole length of 60 m and a dipole separation of 1 to 3. The resulting depth penetration is up to 120 m.

    The results are very positive. Over the main soil anomalous zone, (described in the previous letter on soil geochemistry-magnetic results as northernmost, at least 400 m long, open* to the east) the survey revealed a very strong IP anomaly (50 to 90 milli- seconds) correlating directly with a strong resistivity low anom- aly (2 to 20 ohm-meters). This is a classic geophysics model for disseminated or fracture-filling sulphides. Considering the di- rect correlation with silver, molybdenum, zinc, lead and copper soil anomalies, the possibility of the occurrence of economic mineralization is quite good.

    The IP-resistivity survey shows the zone to extend for 1,380 meters in an east-west direction with it being open on both ends. However, the soil results are anomalous only on the eastern 400 to 500 meters of the IP-resistivity response. This suggests either, ( 1 ) mineralization only occurs on the eastern part of the structure that the IP-resistivity is responding to, or, (2) min- eralization occurs along the total length of the IP-resistivity response, but along the western part it occurs too deep for the soil geochemistry to respond to (though there is some molybdenum response).

    When it was discovered how low the resistivity values were and therefore how stong the conductor was that was correlating with the soil results, it was decided to send a MaxMin electromagneto- meter (EM) to the job site by air cargo. This was done for two reasons. Firstly, the EM may provide extra information in order to optimize diamond drill hole location and therefore save on diamond drill costs. Secondly, if the EM responds to the mineral-

  • ization adequately, this would saye significant costs in any fu- ture exploration work on the XL claims.

    The EM work, which was done in the horizontal loop mode, was car- ried out across the main anomalous zone on line 900E. Two pro- files were run, one at 100 meter coil separation, and the second at a 200 meter coil separation. ~ l l five frequencies were read (222, 444, 888, 1777 and 3555 Hertz).

    The 100-meter coil profiles were interpreted resulting in 5 con- ductors described as follows:

    Conductor A Model: Thin plane conductor (relative term, could be up to 50 m

    thick). Location: 300N Depth to top: 15 to 20 m Dip: 45 to 75" S Conductivity-thickness: 30 to 80 mhos with increasing depth.

    Conductor B Model: 2 closely-spaced thin-plane conductors Location: approximately 4+25N, 4+75N Depth to top: probably 10 to 30 m Dip: unknown, probably steep, i.e. 70s to 70N Conductivity-thickness: unknown

    Conductor C Model: thick conductor with width of 100 m Location: center at 6+00N Depth to top: unknown Dip: unknown Conductivity-thickness: increasing with depth.

    Conductor D Broad conductive zone from approximately 50s to 350s; no other information available.

    Conductor E possible shallow, weak conductor at 1+50N; no other information available.

    Of the above conductors, that labelled A occurs within the main anomalous zone. The 200-meter coil results, which have twice the depth penetration, appear to show two conductors at the Conductor A location with at least c n e dipping to the north. The, location of these two conductr~rs is 250N and 350N. A possihie explanation

  • Lines 540E and 240W were run across the second soil anomalous zone (silver, lead, zinc, copper) and a similar, though not quite as strong, response was shown across it. The minimum length for this IP-resistivity zone is 780 m though the soil geochemistry results suggest a minimum length of 1,500 m with it open on both ends. The IP-resistivity results suggest the zone to dip to the north.

    The west boundary line shows an IP high correlating with a chrom- ium-nickel soil geochemistry high and a resistivity high of mod- erate intensity. It also correlates with the probable westward exteasion of the very strong magnetic high. As mentioned in a previous letter, the magnetic high is probably reflecting serpen- tinite which would also explain the resistivity high. Chromium and nickel mineralization are often associated with ultrabasic bodies such as serpentinite. The IP high could also .be reflecting the magnetite that is causing the magnetic anomaly, or, possibly, sulphides as well.
