SUMMARY

During June of 1982, a geological survey was conducted

on eight (8) claims in east central Bartlett township, District of

Timiskaming, Ontario.

The property is underlain by felsic to intermediate

volcanics, chert, mafic dykes and a felsic intrusive.

The airborne electromagnetic anomaly was explained

by the presence of a gabbroic dyke containing pyrite and pyrrhotite.

It is recommended that no further work be conducted

at this time.

INTRODUCTION

A detailed geological survey was carried out on a

group of eight (8) claims in Bartlett township during June of

1982. The claim numbers are P-618277-84 and are. recorded in the

name of Amax of Canada Limited.

The property covers several air electromagnetic

anomalies uncovered during a helicopter-borne survey carried out

by Amax in August of 1980. The anomalies trend approximately north-

south through the centre of the claim group.

LOCATION AND ACCESS

The group of eight claims is situated in central

Bartlett township in the District of Timiskaming, Ontario.

The property is located about 2 kilometres east,

along the old Texmont Mine access road at the Scott Lake boat launch.

TOPOGRAPHY AND RESOURCES

The relief on the property is quite low with swampy

ground predominating in the south and west claims.

Vegetation consists of mature stands of spruce,

D Project 035, Group 035-10

-3-

pine and poplar in the northeast claims and scattered spruce, cedar

and alders in the swampy areas.

Water for diamond drilling is available from Boomer

ang Lake, from a small lake in claim P-618279 and from a swamp in

the southwest portion of claim P-618281.

PREVIOUS WORK

From Assessment Files

In 1956, Paymaster Consolidated conducted magnetic

and vertical loop geophysical surveys in the area. A number of

diamond drill holes were drilled into felsic metavolcanics. Assay

results were nil to 0.02 oz/ton Au.

In 1965, Silver Summit Mines Limited did linecutting,

geophysics and diamond drilling. Low values of Ni were found.

From 1969 to 1970 they found low values of Cu and Ni together with

gold. Prospecting and trenching near Au values were recommended

but not carried out.

In the Field

None.

SURVEY METHOD

The survey was performed by S. Davies and L. de St.

Jorre during June, 1982. Air photos at a scale of l " sk mile and

air photo blow-ups at a scale of 1:5,000 were used as control while

-4-

mapping. Traverse lines were run using pace and compass at 125

metre intervals across the claims.

REGIONAL GEOLOGY

Early Precambrian (Archean) metavolcanic and plutonic

rocks underlie most of the area.

Two cycles of volcanism are recognized, each consist

ing of a lower unit of ultramafic metavolcanics, an overlying unit

of mafic metavolcanics and an upper unit of intermediate to felsic

metavolcanics.

A pretectonic, layered gabbroic sill and minor felsic

epizonal intrusions are largely confined to the lower sequence of

metavolcanics.

Late tectonic stocks of granodiorite and monzonite

were emplaced within the metavolcanic-metasedimentary succession.

The lower sequence of mafic and ultramafic metavolcanics was intruded

by a large complex granitic batholith composed of at least three

separate intrusive phases.

Diabase dykes are numerous and are not confined to a

specific metavolcanic sequence.

The major structural features in the area consist of

a domal structure in Geikie township that is flanked by large syn-

clines to the north and south and numerous north trending faults

which are probably part of the Onaping Lineament.

PROPERTY GEOLOGY

The property 035-10 is situated on the southern margin

of a small felsic intrusion which was emplaced in the Upper Volcanic

Formation in the Lower Volcanic Group.

Felsic volcanic flows (dacite) were found striking

approximately north-east through the central part of the claim group.

It is flanked on either side by intermediate to felsic crystal tuff.

Chert and cherty sediments were also found in the west central part

of the claims and in the southeast claims.

The volcanics were weakly foliated and mineralized.

The chert was well bedded, striking north-east and dipping to the

southeast. Excellent exposure of the chert on the powerline in

P-618281 showed graded bedding, flame structures and pseudo-nodules.

Tops of the beds were interpreted to be to the southeast. The

chert was well mineralized with pyrite occurring up to 20^ in

places.

Three gabbroic intrusions were also found on the

property. One gabbroic dyke was found striking north-south through

the centre of the claim group. It was moderately mineralized with

pyrite and minor pyrrhotite.

The two other gabbro dykes were found in the south-

west corner of claim P-618281. They were both serpentinized and

poorly mineralized.

-6-

Granite was found underlying the northwest portion

of the group.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

The property is located on the margin of a felsic

intrusion. It is underlain by felsic to intermediate volcanics,

chert, cherty sediments and a series of mafic (gabbro) dykes.

The airborne electromagnetic anomaly was explained

by the presence of a gabbro dyke which was mineralized with

pyrite and pyrrhotite.

The highly mineralized chert was sampled and assayed

and returned nil to trace amounts of Au.

It is recommended that no further work be done on

the property at this time-
