4.O GEOLOGY
4.1 REGIONAL GEOLOGY
The Harker-Holloway area is part of the Abitibi Volcanic Belt of
Northeastern Ontario adjacent to the Quebec border. The main
branch of the Oestor-Porcupine Fault strikes east-west through
the area. The rocks to the south of the fault are Kinojevis Group
of rocks and these rap around to the north of the fault. The core
area along the Destor-Porcupine Fault is Stoughton-Roguemaure
Group of rocks while Hunter Mine Group of rocks occur to the
north of the fault. In Holloway Township the McKenna and
Ghostmont faults are splay faults off the Destor-Porcupine Fault
to the south-west through Kinojevis Group of rocks. The North
Branch of the Destor-Porcupine Fault is a splay fault to the
northwest through Kinojevis and Stoughton-Roquemaure Groups to
the north of the fault and Hunter Mine Group to the south of the
fault.
4.2 Property Geology
The claims are underlain by basic volcanics, iron-rich and
magnesium-rich mafic volcanics, felsic volcanics and diabase
dikes and mafic intrusives. The North Branch of the Destor-
Porcupine Fault zone strikes through the southern part of the
property at 120 degrees and dips steeply north. The mafic
