SUMMARY

A linear, steeply-dipping quartz-chlorite-magnetite

ironstone approximately 5 m wide, trending 120 degrees, was

traced in outcrops for 4 km. In the area of the Pitch-Ore Copper

Occurrence at Wolfe Lake the ironstone contains accessory,

secondary silicate minerals in decreasing order of abundance:

quartz, chlorite, actinolite or hornblende, and epidote. The

secondary oxide and sulphide minerals are in decreasing order of

abundance: magnetite (up tc 7*), chalcopyrite (l to 2^), hematite

after magnetite, and trace native copper. The host rocks are

magnetite-rich gabbro of probable Proterozoic age in the

southwest and hematized red Archean basement gneiss in the

northeast.

Samples of mineralized ironstone at the Pitch-Ore occurrence

contain up to 12034 ppm Cu, 17 ppb Au, and 14. l 'k Fe. Elsewhere,

the ironstone contains up to 107 ppb Au and 10.1* Fe but it is

not enriched in Cu or other trace metals. The ironstone pinches

out or is very narrow northwest cf Wolfe Lake because it was not

discovered in outcrops or glacially-transported boulders. Because

of the narrow width and short strike length of the mineralized

part of the ironstone, ne further work is recommended.

Using information derived from the foregoing, a target

ranking sheet for the Wolfe Lake Property was completed (Table

1). Because of the high ranking of the area, it follows that it

is permissive for rift-related Cu-Au deposits, hence the

objective of this exploration is to discover a Proterozoic Cu-Au

deposit near the intracratonic Keweenawan Rift and, should the

metal concentration not be discovered in this exploration at

Wolfe Lake, understand the relationship between the Cu

concentration at Wolfe Lake and areas about Wolfe Lake vis a vis

WMC's general model for Cu-Au deposits in order to critically

assess this area for future exploration.

1.2 Property description

Thirteen claim units comprising 2 claims and 208 ha (Table

2) in Tupper and Shields Townships were optioned in November 1994

from R.H. Sutcliffe. The Pitch-Ore Copper Occurrence is exposed

in several trenches in the centre of these claims. In February

1995 WMC acquired 190 additional 16 ha claim units in 16 claims

surrounding the optioned claims in Tupper, Shields, Archibald,

and Marne Townships (Figure 2).

1.3 Location and access

The Property is at 46 : 52'N, 84" 15' W and is 40 km north of

Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. Access to the property is by secondary

roads 7 km east of Trans Canada Highway 17, or 4 km west of the

Algoma Central Railway.

1.4 Summary of fieldwork and methods of exploration

Compilation of government magnetic and gravity data was done

to interpret the geophysical associated with the Cu occurrence at

Wolfe Lake. This compilation reveals that a 120 C magnetic linear

originating near Batchawana Bay of Lake Superior trends through

the Pitch-Ore Cu Occurrence and is also on the gradient of a

gravity anomaly adjacent to the long wavelength anomaly of the

Keweenawan Rift beneath Lake Superior.

The method of exploration was i) to examine and sample the rock

types and secondary minerals at the Pitch-Ore Cu Occurrence and

determine whether those rocks could explain the magnetic anomaly,

and ii) traverse across the magnetic anomaly and prospect the

rocks along the anomaly for extensions to that metal

Eighty-six rock samples were collected on reconaissance traverses

and analyzed for trace elements. Two samples were analyzed for

major oxides. Twenty-seven rock samples were collected in

trenches at the Pitch-Ore Cu Occurrence and analyzed for trace

elements. Three standard rocks were analyzed to monitor labratory

precision and accuracy.

1.5 History of mineral exploration in the area of the Wolfe Lake

Property

1955: Tupper 0012

Pitch-Ore Uranium Mines Limited report the logs of 11

diamond drill holes at Wolfe Lake, on what is now called the

Pitch-Ore Copper Occurrence (Table 3). The assessment report

includes the logs of holes l to 4, 8 to 10, and LI to L4, a total

of 665 m of AQ core drilling. The holes were drilled between July

and October 1955. Assays were not reported for LI to L4. The rock

types intersected in the holes were, arkose, quartzite, granite

Page 13: REPORT ON GEOLOGICAL RECONNAISSANCE ......Keweenawan Rift beneath Lake Superior. The method of exploration was i) to examine and sample the rock types and secondary minerals at the

breccia, granite, chloritized mafic intrusions, and amygdaloidal

basalt, all of which have variable amounts of carbonate, pyrite,

magnetite, hematite, uraninite, and chalcopyrite.

Occurrence. Presumably these holes, numbered 5, 6, and 7 were

also drilled in 1955 (Table 3). There are no logs for the holes

in the Sault St. Marie MNDM files, hence the total metreage and

rock types are not known.

1955: Shields 0011-Bl.

Pitch-Ore Uranium Mines Limited reported the results of a

ground-based scintillometer and magnetometer survey and concluded

that there were no "radioactive deposits" at surface but that

uranium and minor copper is concentrated near a diorite or

diabase body approximately 60 m wide intruded by younger

granite. The uranium and copper is concentrated in areas where

the surrounding rocks are silicified, and have stringers of

magnetite and hematite.

1963: No file number

The total magnetic intensity of the area about Wolfe Lake

was measured and reported in the 1963 Geological Survey of Canada

airborne magnetic survey map for Searchmont 4Ik/l6 at a scale of

1:63,360.

1974: No file number

The Ontario Gazette reported the cancellation of patented

claims WD 255 and WD 256 in Shields Township. There are no

reported records of exploration on these patents. It is likely

from the geology of the claims described below that they were

The geology of the property and area is illustrated in OGS

Map 2419 at 1:253,440 scale (Giblin and Leeahy 1976).

2.1 Regional geology and tectonic setting of the Archean,

Proterozoic, and Phanerozoic rocks

The main assemblages of supracrustal and related rocks and

their distribution in the eastern Lake Superior area are as

follows (Figure 3)(cf. Ontario Geological Survey 1991):

i) Archean: These rocks are widespread and include Neo- to

Mesoarchean gneissic tonalite, massive to foliated granite and

granodiorite with felsic to mafic volcanic greenstone belts,

notably the Batchawana Greenstone belt, part of the Abitibi

Subprovince of the Archean Superior Province

ii) Paleoproterozoic: layered siliciclastic rocks and minor ea.

2.2 Ga diabase intrusions of the Cobalt Group, the uppermost

subdivision of the Huronian Supergroup unconformably overly the

Archean basement rocks in a homoclinal south-facing succession

south of Batchawana Bay of Lake Superior.

iii) Mesoproterozoic: gently to steeply-dipping subareal basalt

flows and alluvial-fluvial conglomerate of the Osler Group and

unconformably overlying feldspathic sandstones of the Jacobsville

Group, all of the Keweenawan Supergroup, unconformably overly

both Archean basement rocks and rocks of the Cobalt Group. This

iv) Cambrian to Ordovician siliciclastic and carbonate rocks of

the Michigan basin unconformably overly all of the Precambrian

rocks in a south-facing, gently dipping succession that subcrops

along the unconformity approximately at the U.S.A.-Canadian

The sequence of events in the Lake Superior area is summarized as

follows:

* 2670 Ma: Abitibi Subprovince including the Batchawana

Greenstone Belt, end of orogenesis

* 2660 Ma: Kapuskasing Structure forms along transcurrent

fault

* 2450 Ma: northwest-trending Matachewan diabase dikes

* 2450-2200 Ma: deposition of the Huronian Supergoup on the

south margin of the Superior Province craton

* 2219 Ma Nipissing diabase dikes

* 2040 Ma: Kapuskasing diabase dikes

* Ring faults and 1537 Ma alkalai English Bay granite (in Lake

Nipigon)

* 1900 Ma: Dextral transpression, northwest over southeast

thrust faulting in Kapuskasing Structure

* 1885 Ma: Alkalic complexes (Cargill and Borden) in

Kapuskasing Structure, and uplift

Supergroup/ fluviatile Copper Harbour Conglomerate and

Jacobsville Sandstone through erosional unroofing of

2.2 Regional gravity and magnetic anomalies

Total magnetic intensity (Figure 4) is high relief and high

amplitude in the area of Batchewana Bay. Note that Wolfe Lake is

at UTM 711000 5194500. A short wavelength gravity anomaly

adjacent to the long wavelength anomaly of the Keweenawan Rift

(Figure 5) is surrounded by an annular magnetic anomaly. An

interpretation is that these coincident magnetic and gravity

anomalies are caused by a dense magnetic body, possibly a

Keweenawan intrusion in the area of Batchawana Bay.

3.0 GEOLOGY OF THE WOLFE LAKE PROPERTY

3.1 General statement

Most of the rocks exposed in the area of the property are

granitic gneiss and foliated to massive biotite-bearing granite,

and conventional wisdom (Giblin and Leahy 1976, Ontario

Geological Survey 1991) is that the area about Wolfe Lake is a

mass of felsic Archean basement rocks separating the Batchawana

greenstone belt in the north from the lower Proterozoic Cobalt

Group in the south. The pattern of topographic lineaments in the

area of Wolfe Lake is different from that in other areas where

they are northwest and northeast. At Wolfe Lake the linears are

east-trending and semi-circular concave to the west. Moreover the

area of granitic basement from Batchawana Bay for 100 km east,

including the area about Wolfe Lake, has numerous occurrences of

Cu, Ni-Cu, Mo-Cu, Pb-Zn-Ag, and minor Fe which other areas of

granitoid basement rocks in the Archean lack. Hence, either the

mapped geology of this area is subject to major revision, or

these metal concentrations have been superimposed on the Archean

basement complex by processes that are either not generally

extant in the Archean, or are Proterozoic. Given that the area is

proximal to the present edge of the lower Proterozoic Huronian

Supergroup and Upper Proterozoic Keweenawan Supergroup, and that

those kinds of metal concentrations are abundant in those rocks,

an interpretation is that they were superimposed on the basement

rocks during the Proterozoic.

3.2 Topography/ Quaternary and Recent deposits

The area about Batchawana Bay of Lake Superior at 184 ra ASL

is a rugged upland area with hills up to approximately 653 m ASL.

The uplands about Lake Superior are caused by residual uplift

within the "Lake Superior Swell" (Allen et al. 1991), a

manifestation of underplated juvenile crust beneath the

Keweenawan Rift which has not been completely unroofed. Wolfe

Lake, at 408 ra ASL is within the uplifted area with hills in the

area of the property up to 152 m above Wolfe Lake.

Quaternary deposits are mainly coarsely stratified to massive

sand and boulder till deposits and trough cross-bedded sand

several m thick. They are interpreted as ice-marginal Pleistocene

or Holocene deposits. Recent deposits are minor muskeg and grass

bogs. The area is thickly vegetated with mixed maple, beech,

birch, balsam, and pine forest.

3.3 Archean rocks and their distribution (Map 1)

Gneiss, Unit GUI: The most widespread rocks on the property are

cm-scale banded to massive, grey or pinkish-grey, fine to medium-

grained quartzo-feldspathic gneisses. An average modal

composition of these rocks is:

quartz: 40 to 50%

orthoclase plus plagioclase: 40 to 50%

biotite: l to 51

amphibole: trace to 5%

muscovite: trace to 2%

Page 21: REPORT ON GEOLOGICAL RECONNAISSANCE ......Keweenawan Rift beneath Lake Superior. The method of exploration was i) to examine and sample the rock types and secondary minerals at the

19

The gneissosity is defined by darker biotite layers, where

present. The composition of these rocks varies widely from

biotite and amphibole bearing to grey or white rocks with no

mafic minerals and trace disseminated fine-grained magnetite and

minor greenish muscovite.

Granite and pegmatite, Units GR and pgGR: Minor red to pink

hornblende-biotite or biotite-bearing foliated to massive granite

bodies crop out within the gneiss complex. Presumably these rocks

intruded the gneiss complex, however the margins of these

intrusions were not observed. The granite sometimes has cm- to

m-scale discordant, massive pegmatoidal to aplitic phases. The

pegmatoidal phases cut the basement gneiss and may occur without

association with granite. They are generally very coarse-grained

and sometimes have mm-scale miarolitic cavities. In one instance

(sample 103002, UTM 708526 5195675) a m-wide red pegmatite dike

intrudes the gneiss and is composed of interlocking potassic

feldspar and quartz with 5 to 7% disseminated, fine-grained

magnetite, and massive coarse-grained magnetite clots up to 5 cm

diameter.

Orthoquartzite, Unit MSq: A single outcrop (sample 103009, UTM

709043 5195755) of white, massive, poorly sorted orthoquartzite

crops out within the basement gneisses. The rock contains

amphibole-orthoclase segregations, hence it does not appear to be

part of the lower metamorphic grade Proterozoic rocks and may be

a supracrustal remnant of an Archean sedimentary sequence.

Diabase, Unit Md and Gabbro, Unit Mgb: Black to dark green, fine

grained, massive, m-scale dikes sometimes containing mm- to cm-

scale plagioclase phenocrysts, almost glomeroporphyritic in

places, 2 to 5% disseminated fine-grains and rare stringers of

magnetite.

Basalt, Unit MV: Basalt does not crop out on the property however

a few cm- to m-scale boulders of basalt were noted. They contain

secondary calcite, chlorite, hematite, and epidote in fractures

and hence are likely to be from the Keweenawan Supergroup.

Syenite Unit STq: A petrographic description, CIPW norm

calculation and mineralogical and geochemical discrimination of

this rock is in Appendices D and E. The rock is brick red granite

but was mapped as quartz syenite in the field. The unit crops out

in the northwest part of the property as a ea. 200 m diameter

intrusion in SSM 1163477. The rock is massive and medium-grained,

with 2 to 3% mm- to cm-scale miarolitic cavities. The texture of

the intergrown quartz and feldspar is granophyric or myrmekitic.

Because it has abundant miarolitic cavities however, the texture

is granophyric, caused by eutectic crystallization of the

feldspar and quartz. The "syenite" has a chilled margin against

the grey myrmekitic gneissic basement rocks, hence it is younger.

Because of rock type similarity between this undeforraed intrusion

and miarolitic-textured syenitic rocks in the Coldwell Alkaline

Complex, 260 km north-northwest, this unit is interpreted as a

Keweenawan-age intrusion. The approximate modal mineralogy of the

Page 23: REPORT ON GEOLOGICAL RECONNAISSANCE ......Keweenawan Rift beneath Lake Superior. The method of exploration was i) to examine and sample the rock types and secondary minerals at the

21

rock (cf. Appendix D and E) is:

K feldspar: eS-70% myrmekitic or granophyric texture with quartz

plagioclase: trace

free quartz grains: S-15%

amphibole: trace

chlorite: 5 to 7% pseudomorphous after disseminated fine- to

medium-grained amphibole

epidote: trace to 2 %, intergrown with chlorite

secondary oxides in miarolitic cavities: trace manganite,

hematite, and goethite as coatings

calcite: less than H.% disseminated irregular nun-scale masses and

fine disseminated grains.

The mean Na concentration of the rock calculated from INAA

analyses (nz !7) is 2.0(^ and the mean K concentration is S.72%

(n^7). The rocks contains <l% calcium. Sodium-rich sample 103042

with S.78% Na and Q.24% K is brecciated and hematized, evidence

that Na-metasomatisra post-dated crystallization of the syenite

and was attendant with brecciation.

3.5 Folds and Faults

3.5.1 General

Measurements of planar fabrics in dip/direction format are

as follows:

gneissosity: 70/345, 43/32080/158, 42/335, 70/333, 55/076

joints: 68/116, 84/144, 77/043, 47/1663, 80/030, 75/38, 88/78

fracture cleavage: 84/206, 75/086

Page 24: REPORT ON GEOLOGICAL RECONNAISSANCE ......Keweenawan Rift beneath Lake Superior. The method of exploration was i) to examine and sample the rock types and secondary minerals at the

22

Hence, the gneissosity of the Archean basement rocks trends

approximately 60 and dips moderately to steeply northwest.

There is no evidence from this limited dataset of cleavage and

joint measurements that a penetrative fabric is developed in the

rocks through folding.

3.5.2 Wolfe Lake Fault

The magnetic anomaly through Wolfe Lake originating near

Batchawana Bay is the most prominent geophysical linear in the

area. The rocks in the linear, including the Pitch-Ore Cu

Occurrence have abundant fractures and secondary hydrothermal

minerals (cf. description below; file Tupper 0012) with or

without preferred orientation. The fractured rock and secondary

hydrothermal mineral assemblage, including planar quartz

stockworks and banded parallel vein sets, interpreted as shear

veins were traced in outcrops and several measurements of the

attitude of the shear veins were collected. Planar fabric

measurements in dip/direction format are as follows:

85/016, 84/030, 68/026, 86/230, 82/230, 82/006, 77/043. Hence the

trend of the quartz-chlorite-magnetite rock is 106 to 140 and

dips steeply northeast or southwest. The rock usually dips to the

northeast in the northwest part of the property and dips

southwest in the southeast part of the property.

One observation of minor fold assymmetry with dextral

displacement was observed in the quartz-chlorite-magnetite rock.

Page 25: REPORT ON GEOLOGICAL RECONNAISSANCE ......Keweenawan Rift beneath Lake Superior. The method of exploration was i) to examine and sample the rock types and secondary minerals at the

23

3.6 Metamorphism

Archean basement gneiss is upper amphibolite to granulite

grade. Gabbro and diabase within the gneiss are not folded or

metamorphosed, except by retrograde metamorphism to chlorite.

3.7 Secondary hydrothermal mineral assemblages

3.7.1 Property scale

Widespread but minor cm-scale bands or veinlets of epidote,

quartz, and orthoclase are parallel or discordant to gneissosity

in basement rocks. There is minor epidote in gabbroic rocks.

A large area several 10'S of ra of myrmekitic granitic

pegmatite crops out along the south margin of the red granite in

claim 1163477. There is no penetrative planar fabric in the rock.

The myrmekitic granite (sample 103043) contains S.63% Na, nil Ca,

and Q.39% K, hence the texture of the rock could be caused by

late Na metasomatism either associated with the younger granite

or it could be caused by exsolution of albite and quartz from

anorthitic feldspar during Archean metamorphism of the rock.

Because the rock does not have a penetrative planar fabric the

former interpretation is the most logical.

3.7.2 Pitch-Ore Copper Occurrence (Figure 6)

Quartz-chlorite-magnetite rock: A petrographic description of a

sample of this rock is in Appendix D. This rock is at the contact

of red, massive to weakly foliated granite and fine-grained dark

green gabbro or diabase. The rock is a vein, vein breccia and

partial replacement of the host rocks consisting primarily of:

vein quartz: 75 to 95% massive, clear, somewhat saccharoidal

chlorite: 3 to 25% dark green to emerald or blue green acicular

mm-scale clots and disseminated fine-grains, and massive nun-scale

fracture coatings

amphibole: trace to H brownish-green fine grains intergrown with

chlorite

pyrite: l to 3% fine-grains and disseminated stringers mainly

intergrown with chalcopyrite

chalcopyrite: trace to 3% disseminated fine-grains, stringers,

and mm-scale fracture-coatings, always intergrown with chlorite

magnetite: trace to 7% disseminated stringers and fine- to

medium-grains, and mm-scale fracture coatings with chlorite

hematite: trace to ea. 3% / always intergrown with and probably

pseudomorphous after magnetite and sulphide minerals

native copper: trace fine disseminated grains within quartz.

This body of rock has wide variation in the constituent minerals,

hence along the strike length the amount of Cu varies

considerably. The trend of the rock is 100" to 115 0 and the dip

is approximately 85 3 northeast. Southeast of the Pitch-Ore Cu

Occurrence this rock persists in approximately the same

stratigraphic relationship as at Wolfe Lake but with a thinner or

only intermittently intruded gabbro on the south side and massive

to weakly foliated biotite granite on the north side. In this

area the rock is more chloritic and more rich in magnetite (up to

, and contains up to l * disseminated pyrite but only trace

chalcopyrite.

Granitic host rock on north side of quartz-chlorite-magnetite

rock: This rock is exposed in trenches and shoreline outcrops on

the south side of Wolfe Lake where quartz-magnetite stockworks

trending 095 to 110 cut the granite. Five percent of the massive,

red granite is ram- to cm-scale massive magnetite veinlets with

mm-scale quartz selvages with or without minor chlorite. The

veinlets are spaced 10's of cm apart. Some of the veinlets are

quartz only veinlets with minor disseminated grains and clots of

magnetite. The magnetite within the stockworks sometimes has a

red streak because of intergrown pseudomorphs of hematite. Minor

massive cm-scale magnetite-granite-quartz clast cataclasite is

parallel to magnetite-quartz stockwork veins. Nearest the quartz-

chlorite-magnetite vein the rock is a medium brown, soft,

granular quartzofeldspathic, micaceous schist.

Gabbro host rock on south side of quartz-chlorite-magnetite rock:

Massive fine-grained to plagioclase-phyric with 2 to 5%

disseminated fine-grained magnetite, trace pyrite, and trace

chalcopyrite.

The quartz-chlorite-magnetite rock of the Pitch-Ore Cu

Occurrence has lower metamorphic grade than the country rock

gneiss. The attitude of the quartz-magnetite-chlorite rock is

discordant to other planar fabrics measured on the property. The

Page 29: REPORT ON GEOLOGICAL RECONNAISSANCE ......Keweenawan Rift beneath Lake Superior. The method of exploration was i) to examine and sample the rock types and secondary minerals at the

27

rocks have textural characteristics indicative of brittle failure

such as discordant vein stockworks, randomly oriented sulphide

and silicate fracture coatings, cataclasite, and quartz matrix

hydrothermal breccia. The presence of quartz shear veins is

evidence of ductile failure of the host rocks, but the lack of a

penetrative cleavage envelope about the quartz-chlorite-magnetite

rock is evidence that ductile failure of the rocks is a local

phenomenon and not part of a regional strain fabric imparted by,

for example, a compressional phase of orogenesis. Hence, the

quartz-chlorite-magnetite rock is interpreted as a secondary

hydrothermal mineral assemblage superimposed on older rocks

within a brittle fault.

3.8 Abundances of copper and trace metals in rock samples

(Appendix C) (Map 1)

3.8.1 Samples collected along reconnaissance traverses

Most of the samples anomalous in trace metals were collected from

the southeast part of the property along the Wolfe Lake fault,

within the quartz-chlorite-magnetite rock or adjacent rocks.

Sample 103056 of a quartz stockwork in diabase and granite

contains 18 ppb Au. Sample 103057 of a pseudobreccia with quartz

interclast material in basement gneiss contains 107 ppb Au, 4.4

ppm As, 24 ppm U, 134 ppm Cu, and 229 ppm Pb. The gabbroic dike

in the Wolfe Lake Fault contains up to 141 total iron within

disseminated magnetite and is the likely source rock for the

magnetite-rich veins and fracture coatings within the quartz-

Page 30: REPORT ON GEOLOGICAL RECONNAISSANCE ......Keweenawan Rift beneath Lake Superior. The method of exploration was i) to examine and sample the rock types and secondary minerals at the

28

chlorite-magnetite rock.

3.8.2 Pitch-Ore Copper Occurrence (Figure 7)

Most of the samples of quartz-chlorite-magnetite rock

collected at this mineral occurrence contained anomalous

concentrations of copper. Sample 103015 contains 1.2% copper

within chalcopyrite and native copper. All of the other samples

contain less than l * Cu and most of those contain less than Q.5%

Cu. Sample 103027 contains 17 ppb Au. The most iron-rich sample

is 103021 with 15.2 % Fe, and most of the other samples contain

less than 10% iron. Sample 103015 contains 27 ppm U and is the

most uraniferous sample from the mineral occurrence.

4.0 SYNOPSIS OF EVIENCE FOR CU-AU ORE DEPOSIT MODEL

Table 4 is a comparison of the mineral assemblage, water

composition, and tectonic setting of several types of Cu-Au

deposits. There is no critical geochemical data about the Wolfe

Lake Property, nevertheless the comparison is instructive to put

the main characteristics of the area about Wolfe Lake in

perspective with known deposits. The mineral assemblage mostly

contrasts with the deposit types in this comparison, however, if

one assumes that the hematite in the Pitch-Ore Cu Occurrence is

late and pseudomorphous after magnetite than there is a

paragenetic similarity to both Ernest Henry and Olympic Dam with

early magnetite-rich assemblages and late hematite-rich

assemblages. Because the Wolfe Lake Fault has characteristics of

brittle failure and is a quartz-chlorite-magnetite assemblage it

is different from Ernest Henry and Olympic Dam. The rocks

remotely resemble some quartz-rich magnetite ironstones in the

Mt. Isa Inlier (Ernest Henry) but the characteristics of brittle

failure indicate that the depth of formation was probably less

than Ernest Henry but not as shallow as Olympic Dam. Moreover,

the width of the linear zone of iron metasomatism at Wolfe Lake

is minor and contains only minor Cu and Au. Whether the local

iron enrichment is related to widespread regional iron

metasomatism, as at Olympic Dam and Ernest Henry, is not known.

Future property examinations and geological reconnaissance are

planned to evaluate this.

5.0 CONCLUSIONS

1. The Wolfe Lake Property covers 4 km of a brittle fault which

contains less than 5 m thickness of quartz-magnetite-chlorite

rock.

2. Within the quartz-magnetite-chlorite rock there is a 200 m

long segment enriched in Cu, and with anomalous but minor

concentrations of Au, Fe, and U.

3. Previous diamond drilling, and this exploration, indicate that

Page 33: REPORT ON GEOLOGICAL RECONNAISSANCE ......Keweenawan Rift beneath Lake Superior. The method of exploration was i) to examine and sample the rock types and secondary minerals at the

32

this Cu concentration is narrow and with minor strike length.

4. The mineral assemblage does not compare favourably with known

Cu-Au deposits, although there is minor paragenetic similarity in

the sequence of iron oxide formation.

6.0 RECOMMENDATIONS

Given the favourable target ranking of the Wolfe Lake

Property, the area about eastern Lake Superior should be further

evaluated for Cu-Au projects, however the Wolfe Lake Property

should not be explored further by WMC.

APPENDIX D: PETROGRAPHIC DESCRIPTIONS

Sample 103074 ( l of 2): Keweenawan Granite

UTM: 706130 5196160

Hand Sample: medium-grained, red granite with mm- to cm-scale

miarolitic cavities

Quartz: 3 5 to 40 ii fine intergrowwths with K feldspar

K feldspar: 6 0% mostly complex granophyric intergrowth with clear

igneous quartz, minor very cloudy mm-scale subhedral phyric

feldspar grains are early phenocrysts overgrown by granophyric

quartz and feldspar. Note that 90*^ of all feldspar grains are

actually ultrafine sericite pseudomorphous after K feldspar. The

sericite causes patchy extinction of the erstwhile feldspar

grains.

Albite: Although the rock is albite normative, there were no

albite grains in the slide, hence the Na is contained in the K

feldspar, or plagioclase grains are too clouded by sericite to

distinguish.

Chlorite: 2 to 3% fine-grained aggregates within miarolitic

cavities, olive green in ppi, probably chamosite

Hematite: Trace as coatings on chlorite in miarolitic cavities

Manganite o r manganese oxide/hydroxide: Minor opaque coating with

bluish grain boundaries in transmitted light

Sample 103074 ( 2 of 2): Keweenawan Granite

This slide has essentially the same texture and mode as the

Page 63: REPORT ON GEOLOGICAL RECONNAISSANCE ......Keweenawan Rift beneath Lake Superior. The method of exploration was i) to examine and sample the rock types and secondary minerals at the

62

previous slide, with minor differences viz:

-phyric K feldspar grains are intensely chloritized

-some of the hematite is pseudomorphous after disseminated

primary fine-grained magnetite in the groundmass of the rock, and

minor magnetite is remnant in the cores of the larger grains

Interpretation: undeformed granite with excellent preservation of

textures indicative of rapid crystallization and degassing at

shallow depth

Sample 103075: Keweenawan Granite

UTM: 706130 5196100

Same as per 103074

Sample 103116: Keweenawan Granite

UTM: 705740 5197100

Same as 103074

Sample 103030: Pitch Ore Cu Occurrence

UTM: 711800 5194430

Hand Sample: quartz-chlorite-cpy-magnetite rock

Quartz: 9 5-98*4 fine-grained vein quartz, incipient

recrystallization

Chalcopyrite: trace to .5** fine-grained, evenly disseminated

throughout quartz

Hematite: minor hematite pseudomorphs after chalcopyrite, the

largest grain of hematite is within a chlorite aggregate where it

Page 64: REPORT ON GEOLOGICAL RECONNAISSANCE ......Keweenawan Rift beneath Lake Superior. The method of exploration was i) to examine and sample the rock types and secondary minerals at the

63

is replacing chalcopyrite

Magnetite: trace fine-grained, disseminated

Chlorite: olive green, l to 21 disseminated fine, euhedral grains

and irregular aggregates

Sample 103044: cm-scale boulder of K feldspar-dark matrix breccia

UTM: 706725 5196730

Hand Sample: unusual bright red rock of angular, coarse-grained

brecciated K feldspar fragments with dark, fine-grained, silicate

matrix

K feldspar: 8 0% medium to coarse angular fragments and grains,

very cloudy in ppi because of sericite pseudomorphs throughout

the grains, minor quartz and chlorite inclusions. Remnant

polysynthetic twinning suggests it is microcline. The edges of

the grains are broken and intergrown with fine chlorite and

quartz. Rare granophyric texture with quartz.

Albite: trace disseminated fine grains

Interclast material: 4 01 quartz and 601 chlorite very finely

intergrown.

Biotite: trace within interclast material

Hematite: 0 .5 to 11 disseminated fine grains and fracture

coatings throughout interclast material

Interpretation: Probably a brecciated pegmatoidal phase of the

Keweenawan granite
