FOR POSSIBLE r1~SIBILITY STUDY No. 194(1969) Kamad Silver Co. Ltd" hasmade available extensive information on the

company's Homestake-silver-tarite property at Squam Bay,Adams Lake, 70 miles east of Kam­100ps,B.C. ,including corrunents as recer..tly a.s 3Dec69, including the reports and interpretat­ions of Angus G.~1ackenzie,P.Eng.,consulting mining engineer and mining geologist of 703-5th st.SW., Calgary 2, Mr. Mackenzie is a member of the Canadian Institute of Mining andMetallurgy, belongs to the Alta. and Man. Association of Professional Engineers and islicensed to practise in B.C. and Sask.He rns 30 years mining, exploration and geologicalexperience, including the various aspects of mining,metallurgy and exploration.

In his letter of 3Dec69,he says his firm of consultants is currently evaluating thedrilling program at the Adams Lake property. This involved 21 holes. The reserve estimategiven later in this item as provided in a report of October,1969, is being evaluated furtheras the c~ntrolled survey plan was recently received giving elevations, etc., for the drillingand old world ngs areas.

The consultant supplies also a rough estimate he made on newly discovered reserves inthe upper or 300 level zone in the course of drilling holes No. 5 to No. 14. These estimates,he explains, were made on this zone to give some indication of the gross value of the newlyoutlined block and they are not, he emphasizes, to be considered final figures. (The under­lines a·r..~ his). He is currently having a considerable number of check assays run, particu­larly for BaS04(barite). These rough calculations show, he adds, that "we are looking ata considerable, newly added tormage of $40 ore, gross value."

At 9Feb69,Mr. Mackenzie classified reserves as probable or indicated ore as follows:63,809 tons Barite ore grading $21.91 per ton, 12,686 tons Quartz Schist Ore grading $97.127per ton. The calculations were based on four Kamad drill holes and old geological reports.

These calculations were on basis of recoverable silver and barite only. Prices usedwere silver $2.00 per/oz. and barite $20.00 per ton. Values for gold, copper, lead and zincwere not included. Also, an allowance was made for dilution. The reserve is reported ineight blocks with barite content between 70% and 80,% arxiallows for a 75% recovery. The silve~

values for the blocks are; 8.27 oz. per ton; 7.27 oz.per ton, 7.27, 4.56; 43.3; 66.0; 9.02and 0.90 oz.per ton. A 90% recovery factor was used in the silver reserve calculations.Mr. Mackenzie's initial report said he was convinced that the property is a potential pro­ducer and recommended a $205,000 program to include rehabilitation of the workings, de­watering of 2 old winzes and a planned underground D.D. program.

In his 3l0ct69 report, Mr. MacKenzie concludes: "With the present available data anadditional 50,000 tons of fair grade barite and quartz schist ore is added to the last oreestimate of 76,495 tons. To this may be added another possible 100,000 tons of lower gradeore(delineated by D.D.H. 's 5 to 8), the economics of which can only be determined by bulksampling and/or further drilling.

"Also showing strong possibilities is the intervening quartz sericitethe lower barite(footwall)vein and quartz-schist(hanging wall)vein. If thefrom the surface and old reports underground assays are substantiated whenbulk sampling is done, an additional reserve of about 100,000 tons of suchdiate old workings area can be looked for.

"The copper zone, located some 150 ft. vertically below 500 level, has not been fullyevaluated but shows good potential.

"To summarize. we now have approx. total reserves as follows:,,Last Reserve Estimate(February 5,1969) 76,495 tons: He notes that this estimate mustReserves Based on D.D.H. #10 to #13 50,000 tons:be taken as a "horseback" figure at thisTotal tons(essentially proven) 126,495 tons:stage.
