New Discovery Resulting in a 20KM Mineralized Gold Belt
klondike, you are stating that the area is not volcanic.
this is from our 43-101...
8.0 DEPOSIT TYPES Mineralized zones observed and expected on the property are quartz veins and quartz-filled breccias. The quartz veins are best developed in the volcanoclastic rocks and the much more competent diorites host quartz-filled breccias. Minor sulphides are present in both the veins and the breccias,
pyrite and sometimes pyrrhotite being the most common with lesser amounts of sphalerite, galena, and chalcopyrite. Arsenopyrite is reported but not observed during this program; however marcasite, which might be mistaken for arsenopyrite is seen occasionally.
These deposits have been referred to as quartz-carbonate vein gold mineralization which is a subtype
of lode gold type mineralization (Francois, 1995). In 1995 the quartz-carbonate vein gold deposits
accounted for approximately 80% of Canada’s lode gold production (Francois, 1995).
