SUflARY

The Gilmour Property consists of 71 unpatented mineral claims covering approximately 1430 hectares in Srimsthorpe and Tudor Townships, Southeastern Ontario.

The property is underlain by a Proterozoic aged metavolcanic- metasedimentary sequence, l^tafic Metavolcanic rocks are the oldest rock, units on the property and consist primarily of massive and pillowed flows. Locally interlayered with the metavolcanics are argillaceous and cherty metasediments. The supracrustal rocks are locally intruded by narrow mafic and felsic dykes.

A broad N-NE trending zone of shearing (the Moira River Shear Zone) is developed within the mafic metavolcanics. The shear zone may be localized in a mafic volcaniclastic sequence. Rocks within the deformation zone are weakly to strongly Fe-carbonate altered.

Within the zones of strongly sheared and Fe-carbonate altered rock, 2 styles of gold mineralization have been noted:

1. Foliation oblique quartz veins.2. Silica-Fe-carbonate+sericite replacement zones with disseminated

to stringer sulfide mineralization.

Sixteen trenches previously excavated along the Moira River Shear Zone were saw cut with a diamond saw. An additional 14 trenches were excavated and saw cut with a diamond saw. Trenching and saw cutting was carried out evaluate gold mineralized zones and investigate gold anomalies in 'B' horizon soils.

All trenches contained strongly sheared and variably Fe- carbonate altered mafic metavolcanic and/or mafic intrusive rocks. In many trenches the Fe-carbonate alteration was accompanied by silica alteration and sulfide mineralization.

I. IINTTFOXJCTION

Scope

This report documerts the location of 30 trenches on the Gilmour Property, Grimsthorpe and Tudor Township, Ontario.

The trenches were excavated along the Moira River Shear Zone to evaluate soil and bedrock ^old anomalies in sheared and Fe~carbonate altered mafic metavolcanic recks of the Grenville Structural Province.

Location and Access

The Gilmour Propert/ is located in Grimsthorpe and Tudor Townships, approximately 30 l .r, north of Madoc, Ontario, and 180 km northeast of Toronto, Ontaric (Figure 1).

Geographically the ;entre of the property is located at latitude 44 degrees 51'N and longitude 77 degrees 32'W at an average elevation of 300 m above sea level. The magnetic declination for the area is approximately 12 degrees west. The claims are covered by 1:50,000 series map sheets 313/13.

Access to the property is via Ontario Highway 62 to the village of Gilmour (approximately 35 km north of Madoc). From Gilmour continue 5.2 km northeast on a paved County road to the Skootamata Forest Access road. The Skoctamata road bisects the Gilmour Property. Numerous trails and skidder rsads traverse the property from the Skootamata road.

Property Ownership

The Gilmour Propert/ consists of 71 unpatented mineral claims covering a surface area of approximately 1430 hectares (Figure 2). Fifty-eight mining claims are wholly owned by Homestake Mineral Development Company, 1000 - 7X* West Pender Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 1G8. Thirteen :laims are held under option from Mr. P. Tulonen of St. Catherines, Qrtario. Details regarding the mineral claims are summarized in Table 1.

Physiography

The property is crosscut by a chain of interconnecting, trending streams and ponds that form the headwaters of the Moira River. Since many of the streams have been dammed by beavers, drainage is only poor to moderate.

Areas between the s-.reams are characterised by moderate topography with up to 10-157. redrock exposure. Maximum relief is approximately 25 m.

Most of the property is covered by mixed hardwood forest. Maple, birch and poplar are the dominant tree types, with minor balsam fir, hemlock, and cedar. Locally small stands of mature white pine are present.

Overburden consists primarily of a thin to moderate (0.2 - 1m) cover of ground moraine deposits. These deposits are primarily gravelly to sandy loam with numerous locally derived angular clasts. Podzolic soils have formed on much of the ground morraine deposits. According to Lumbers (1968) the average direction of ice movement in the area, determined from glacial striae is 183 degrees.

Previous Geological Work

Exploration activities commenced around the turn of the century with extensive prospecting and trenching for quartz veins. In 1909,, the Gilmour Mining Company sank two shafts and carried out underground drifting on 3 levels. Exploration and mining efforts continued sporadically between 1909 and 1939. Total reported gold production for this period was approximately 44*1)0 tonnes at a grade of 12 gm. The ore consisted of auriferous quartz-tourmaline-carbonate veins with accessory pyrite and chalcopyrite. Drilling and trenching efforts defined other small gold occurrences in the immediate area of the mine, but all development was terminated in 1939.

The property remained idle until 1979. From 1979 to 1986 several companies held claims adjoining the old mine property. After superficial examinations of the quartz veins, most of the claims were dropped. In 1986 and 1987, Mr Paul Tulonen and Homestake Mineral Development Company staked 13 and 62 claims respectively. Homestake subsequently dropped 8 claims and negotiated an option on the Tulonen claims.

In 1987 and 1988, Homestake conducted reconnaissancegeological mapping and soil sampling programs on the Grimsthorpe claims. These programs indicated the presence of extensive Fe-carbonate alteration and anomalous gold and arsenic concentrations in rocks and soils along the Moira River Shear Zone.

In November 1988, an Airborne EM-Magnetic survey outlined several weak EM and magnetic anomalies coincident with several of the sheared and mineralized zones previously investigated.

In March 1989, a 100 m spaced grid was established over key areas of the property (approximately 6(5 km of line was cut). At the same time, a claims inspection was carried out over key claims covering the Moira River Shear Zone.

During the Summer of 1989, geological mapping, rock sampling, and 'B' horizon soil sampling was carried out over gridded portions of the property. The soil survey demonstrated anomalous gold concentrations (values up to 4.5 g/t) along more than 6 km of strike length.

Property Geology

The geology of the Gilmour Property is summarised in Figure 4.

The property is predominantly underlain by late Precambrian mafic metavolcanic and metasedimentary rocks of the Grenville Structural Province of the Canadian Shield.

The mafic metavolcanic rocks consist primarily of massive to gabbroic textured flows, fragmental units (probably volcaniclastic in origin) and locally pillowed flows. Many of the mafic metavolcanic rocks are now mafic schists. The mafic schists generally occur proximal to a major N-NE trending shear zone, the Moira River Shear. The Moira River Shear is a major deformation zone that subparallels the Moira River. Other subordinate shears may be present on the property as witnessed by the presence of other mafic schist units.

Metasedimentary rocks generally form narrow, discrete horizons across the property. The metasediments are primarily argillites and sulfide bearing schists, with subordinate amounts of graphitic schist and cherty/siliceous sediments. A narrow, 1-2 m wide magnetite iron formation was noted near the baseline at approximately L12E. The metasedimentary units generally occupy stream beds and topographic lows.

In one or two locations, felsic intrusive dykes have been noted. These units are generally 1-2 m wide, discontinuous along strike, fine grained, and locally porphyritic. Where sheared they are moderately sericitic.

Most of the lithologies on the property are foliated to some degree. Two main foliation trends have been noted on the property. The oldest foliation is at approximately 50 degrees and dips steeply. This foliation direction may represent an early regional fabric. The youngest foliation is at 25-35 degrees and again dips steeply. This foliation is subparallel to the trend of the Moira River Deformation Zone. In some areas, broad zones of schistose rock are present. These rones may be related to the Moira River Shear.

Metamorphic grades range from lower to middle greenschist facies across the property.

Alteration and Mineralization

Fe-carbonate alteration is present all across the property. The zones with the strongest Fe-carbonate alteration appear to correlate with the broad zones of sheared and schistose mafic metavolcanic rocks.

Within the zones of strongly sheared and Fe-carbonate altered rock, 2 styles of gold mineralization have been noted:

1. Foliation oblique quartz veins.2. Silica-Fe-carbonate+sericite replacement zones with disseminated

to stringer sulfide mineralization.

Bold mineralization has also been noted in quartz-tourmaline veins associated with felsic dikes at the Cobalt Frontenac Prospect.

III. TRENCHING PROGRAM

During May and June 1990, 9 trench sites (24E, 23E, 22E, 3E, IE, O. 3W, 344W, and 4W) were excavated with a Muskeg Backhoe by Mininc Exploration Contractor David Larche of Timmins, Ontario. Mr. Larche also enlarged 7 existing trench sites (4E, 2E, 1W, 1+25W, 1+44W, 2W, 3-d 5W). Backhoe excavated trenches were wajaxed and saw cut by a crew supplied by Mr. Larche. Trench location maps are presented in Appendix 1. Cost statements and invoices are presented in Appendix 3.

During the period September to November 1990, 14 areas were trenched by hand (Trench B50W, 10W, HW, 1522W, 1861W, 1924W, 20W, 21W, 24W, 2445W, 2476W, 26W, 2687W and 3171W). Manual trenching was carried out by Mr. J. Laidlaw and Mr. S. Graham. Trench location maps are presented in Appendix 2. Cost statements and invoices are presented in Appendix 3.

Trenching and saw cutting were supervised by Mr. B. Christie. Homestake personnel were lodged at a private residence in the Village ofGilmour.

IV. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

All trenches contain strongly sheared and variably Fe- carbonate altered mafic metavolcanic and/or mafic intrusive rocks. In several places the Fe-carbcnate alteration is accompanied by silica alteration and sulfide mineralization.

It is recommended that the trenches be mapped and sampled in detail.
