SUMMARY<br />

The Patten River Property consists of 32 contiguous, non-patented<br />

mining claims situated along the Casa Berardi-Normetal-Ligneris<br />

greenstone belt which forms part of the Abitibi Subprovince of<br />

the Archean Superior Province of the Precambrian Shield.<br />

This greenstone belt is considered to be Hunter Mine Group<br />

(2708my) in age (OGS Map 2484) consisting of an assemblage of<br />

mafic to felsic metavolcanics, metasediments and igneous rocks<br />

which are bordered by granitic batholiths. Diabase dikes are<br />

interpretated to cross the area in a northeast direction.<br />

The property was flown in March of 1988 by Aerodat Limited using<br />

their helicopter borne electromagnetic and magnetic system along<br />

lines at 100 metre intervals. Anomaly Nos. A-3, A-6 S A-7 and A-8<br />

fi A-9 were covered on the ground with electromagnetic and<br />

magnetic surveys over a total of 16.6 kms during December 1989.<br />

During 1990 these anomalies were covered with geological and<br />

geochemical surveys. One diamond drill hole tested anomaly A-6.<br />

During 1991 the HEM anomalies on three grids A-3, A-6-7 and A-8-9<br />

were investigated with three diamond drill holes totalling<br />

306.92 metres. The anomaly on grid A-3 is caused by 1.62 metres<br />

of ID-15% disseminated pyrrhotite, minor pyrite and traces of<br />

chalcopyrite in a banded cherty tuff. The anomaly on grid A-8-9<br />

is caused by 5.85 metres of 2-3% disseminated pyrite in a banded
