2) The HcDermott gold deposit Is located along the McKenna
Fault. The Mattawasaga gold deposit is located along the
Ghostmont Fault. These are splay faults striking southwest off
the Destor-Porcupine Fault. These faults occur long the contact
between iron-rich and magnesium-rieh tholiitic basalts with
possible interflow sediments. The mineralization consists of
finely disseminated pyrite which is directly proportional to the
grade of gold. Gold is rarely visible occuring almost entirely
within finely disseminated pyrite. Alteration consists of very
strongly silicified and to a lesser extent carbonatized basalt.
The average thickness of the Mattawasaga deposit ranges from 30-
80 feet.
5.2 Property Mineralization
Alteration zones consisting of strongly silicified and
carbonatized zones over widths of 17-22m along the
North Branch
of the Destor-Porcupine Fault. This fault is located along the
contact between felsic volcanics to the south and mafic volcanics
to the north. Hole No. LR-87-1 on section 8 Bast encountered
anomalous gold values of 73 ppb Au over 3.99 m within a
silicified and carbonatized zone from 228.78m to 250.91m over a
width of 22.13 m on the footwall of the North Branch of the
Destor-Porcupine Fault. The best assay is 189 ppb Au over 0.91 m.
