1.0 INTRODUCTION
Crone Geophysics and Exploration Ltd. was contracted by Pacific North West Capital Corp. to conduct a Borehole Pulse Time Domain Electromagnetic (PEM) survey on the Agnew Lake Property near Sudbury, Ontario. The survey was conducted during March - April of 2003 during which time 2 holes, namely holes AL-22 and AL-23, were surveyed from two separate transmit loops. This report outlines the geophysical work performed on this property. The appendices to this report contain page size plan and section maps, the PEM profiles in a lin-log format, the linear profile plots, and a brief description of the Crone Instrument Specifications.
2.0 PROPERTY LOCATION
The Agnew Lake Property is located ~ 70 km west - southwest of Sudbury, Ontario and the project area is located in Shakespeare, Dunlop, Shibananing, and Gough Townships.

4. O SURVEY METHODS
Crone Pulse EM is a time domain electromagnetic method in which a precise pulse of current with a controlled linear shut off is transmitted through a large loop of wire on the ground and the rate of decay of the induced secondary field is measured across a series of time windows during the off-time. The EMF created by the shutting-off of the current induces eddy currents in nearby conductive material thus setting-up a secondary magnetic field. When the primary field is terminated, this magnetic field will decay with time. The amplitude of the secondary field and the decay rate are dependent on the quality and size of the conductor.
On this project, a 3D Borehole Pulse EM system was assembled in which an axial component (Z) probe and a cross component (XY) probe were used to measure the three components of the induced secondary field. The first pass with the 'Z' probe detects any in-hole or off-hole anomalies and gives information on size, conductivity, and distances to the edge of conductors. The second pass with the

7.0 DATA DISCUSSION
Holes AL-22 and AL-23 were both surveyed utilizing a time base of 8.33msec (30 Hz equivalent) with the loop(s) positioned to couple well with any flat-lying l shallow dipping structures. A 8.33 msec time base was chosen as the responses of any conductive features in this general area were expected to be weak as the expected targets were poorly conductive and/or disseminated/stringer sulphides. Lower base frequencies surveys in such environments are therefore not required as highly conducting sulphide targets (if present) would also be resolved with a higher base frequency (30 Hz) survey.
No discrete anomalous features have been identified in these holes as being due to discrete, large conductive sources and it is unlikely that any large conductive body lies within a 100-150m radius of these holes. Several spiky early time/ channel responses are evident in the X and Y components and the significance of these is not fully known at this stage but these may be caused by localized in/near hole effects. Appendix IV shows the results of the Rad-tool survey and the one item of interest to note is that there appears to

be several discrete magnetic sources in these holes, and these may be causing the early time responses evident in the XY data.

CRONE PULSE EM SYSTEM
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Crone Pulse EM system is a time domain electromagnetic method (TDEM) that utilizes an alternating pulsed primary current with a controlled shut-off and measures the rate of decay of the induced secondary field across a series of time windows during the off-time. The system uses a transmit loop of any size or shape. A portable power source feeds a transmitter which provides a precise current waveform through the loop. The receiver apparatus is moved along surface lines or down boreholes.
The transmitter cycle consists of slowly increasing the current over a few milliseconds, a constant current, abrupt linear termination of the current, and finally zero current for a selected length of time in milliseconds. The EMF created by the shutting-off of the current induces eddy currents in nearby conductive material thus setting-up a secondary magnetic field. When the primary field is terminated, this magnetic field will decay with time. The amplitude of the secondary field and the decay rate are dependent on the quality and size of the conductor. The receiver, which is synchronized to the off-time of the transmitter, measures this transient magnetic field where it cuts the surface coil or borehole probe. These readings are across fixed time windows or "channels".
SYSTEM TERMINOLOGY
Ramp Time"Ramp time" refers to the controlled shut-off of the transmitter current Three ramp times are
selectable by the operator, 0.5ms, 1.0ms, and 1.5ms. By controlling the shut-off rather than having it depend on the loop size and current ensures that the same waveform is maintained for different loops so data can be properly compared.
The 1.5ms ramp is the normally used setting for good conductors. It keeps the early channel responses on scale and decreases the chance of overload. The faster ramp times of 1.0ms and 0.5ms will enhance the early time responses. This can be useful for weak conductors when data from the higher end of the frequency spectrum is desired.
Time BaseTime base is the length of time the transmitter current is off (it includes the ramp time). This also
equals the on time of the current. Eight time bases are selectable by the operator. They include the original time bases used in the analog system as well as time bases to eliminate the effects of powerline interference. The eight time bases are as follows: compatible to analog Rx: 10.89ms, 21.79ms; 60hz powerline noise reduction: 8.33ms, 16.66ms, SL 33.33ms; 50hz powerline noise reduction: 10.00ms. 20.00ms, SL 40.00ms
Since readings are taken during the off cycles, the time base will have an effect on the receiver channels. Normally, a standard time base is selected for the type of system and survey being used, but this can be changed to suit a particular situation. A longer time base is preferred for conductors of greater time constants, and in surveys such as resistive soundings where more channels are desired.
Zero Timp SjptThe term "zero time set" or "ZTS" refers to the starting point for the receiver channel
measurements. It is manually set on the receiver by the operator thus allowing adjustments for the ramp times and fine tuning for any fluctuations in the transmitter signal.

Receiver ChannelsThe rate of decay of the secondary field is measured across fixed time windows which occupy
most of the off-time of the transmitter. These time windows are referred to as "channels". These channels are numbered in sequence with "l" being the earliest. The analog and datalogger receivers measured eight fixed channels. The digital receiver, being under software control, offers more flexibility in the channel positioning, channel width, and number of channels.
PP ChannelThe PEM system monitors the primary field by taking a measurement during the current ramp
and storing this information in a "PP channel". This means that data can be presented in either normalized or unnormalized formats, and additional information is available during interpretation. The PP channel data can provide useful diagnostic information and helps avoid critical errors in field polarity'.
SynchronizationSince the PEM system measures the secondary field in the absence of the primary field, the
receiver must be in "sync" with the transmitter to read during the off-time. There are three synchronization methods available: cable connection, radio telemetry, and crystal clock. This flexibility enhances the operational capabilities of the system.
SURVEY METHODS
The wide frequency spectrum of data produced by a Pulse EM survey can be used to provide structural geological information as well as the direct detection of conductive or conductive associated ore deposits. The various types of survey methods, from surface and borehole, have greatly improved the chances of success in deep exploration programs. There are eight basic profiling methods as well as a resistivity sounding mode.
Moving CoilA small, multi-turn transmitter loop (13.7m diameter) is moved for each reading while the
receiver remains a fixed distance away. This method is ideal for quick reconnaissance in areas of high background conductivity.
Moving LoopSame as Moving Coil method, but with a larger transmit loop (100 to 300 meters square). This
method provides deeper penetration in areas of high background conductivity, and works best for near-vertical conductors. This method can be used in conjunction with the Moving In-loop survey for increased sensitivity to horizontal conductors.
Moving In-LoopA transmit loop of size 100 to 300 meters square is moved for each reading while the receiver
remains at the center of the loop. This method provides deep penetration in areas of very high background conductivity, and works best for near-horizontal conductors. It can be used in conjunction with the Moving Loop survey.
Large In-LoopA very large, stationary transmit loop (800m square or more) is used, and survey lines are run
inside the loop. This mode provides very deep penetration (700m or more) and couples best with shallow dip conductors ^45 deg.) under the loop.
Crone Pulse EM System Description 2
Crone Geophysics de Exploration Ltd.
DeepemA large, stationary transmit loop is used, and survey lines are run outside the loop. This mode
provides very deep penetration, and couples best with steeply dipping conductors (M 5 deg.) outside the loop.
Borehole (Z Component only)Isolated Borehole: A drill hole is surveyed by lowering a probe down a hole and surveying it with
a number of transmit loops laid out on surface. The data from multiple loops gives directional information on the conductors.
Multiple Boreholes: One large transmit loop is used to survey a number of closely spaced holes. The change in anomaly from hole to hole provides directional information. These methods have detected conductors to depths of 2500m from surface and up to 200m from the hole.
3-D BoreholeDrill holes are surveyed with both the Z and the XY borehole probes. The X and Y components
provide accurate direction information using just one transmit loop.Since the probe rotates as it moves down the hole a correction is required for the X-Y data. This
is accomplished in one of two ways. The standard approach is to use the measurement of the primary field from the "PP" channel, apply a "cleaning" algorithm to remove most of the secondary field contamination, and compare this to theoretical values. The amount of probe rotation is then calculated, and the correction can be made. The second method involves the use of an optional orientation device for the X-Y probe which is produced in co-operation with IFG Corp. This attachment uses dipmeters to calculate the probe rotation.
Underground BoreholeUnderground drill holes can be surveyed in any of the above mentioned borehole methods with
one or more transmit loops on the surface. Near-horizontal holes can be surveyed using a push-rod system.
Resistivity SoundingsBy reading a large number of channels in the centre of a transmit loop it is possible to perform a
decay curve analysis giving a best-fit layer earth model using programs such as ARRTI or TEMIX.
EQUIPMENT
Transmit LoopsThe PEM system can operate with practically any size of transmit loop, from a multi-turn
circular loop 13.7m in diameter, to a l or 2 turn loop of any shape up to l or 2 kilometers square using standard insulated copper wire of 10 or 12 gauge. The multi-turn loop is made in two sections with screw connectors. The 10 or 12 gauge loop wire comes on spools in either 300m or 400m lengths. The spools can be mounted on packframe winders for laying out or retrieving.
Power SupplyThe PEM system normally operates with an input voltage from 24v to 120v. Modifications have
recently been made to increase the power to 240 volts. The maximum current is still 20 amps. For low power surveys a 20amp7hr 24v battery can be used. The power supply requires a motor generator and a voltage regulator to control and filter the input voltage to the transmitter.
