1. SURVEY DETAILS

This project is known as the Hughes Property.

1.1 CLIENT SKEAD HOLDINGS LTD.

28 Ford St. Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario P6A 4N4

1.2 LOCATION The Hughes Property is located approximately 50km northeast of Sault Ste Marie, Ontario. The property covers claim 1192194 located in Hughes Township, within the Sault Ste. Marie Mining Divi-sion.

Figure 1: Location of the Hughes Property

1.3 ACCESS Access to the property was attained with a 4x4 truck via an access road heading north from highway 556 approximately 50km east of its intersection with highway 17. This access road was driven for 12km and the final 1km to the property was travelled on foot.

1.4 SURVEY GRID The traversed lines were established using a GPS in conjunction with the execution of the survey. The GPS operator would establish sample locations while remaining approximately 12.5m in front of the mag operator. GPS waypoints and mag samples were taken every 12.5m along these controlled traverses. The GPS used was a Garmin GPS Map 62S.

2.2 PERSONNEL Bruce Lavalley and Claudia Moraga of Britt, Ontario conducted all the magnetic data collection.

2.3 SURVEY SPECIFICATIONS The survey was conducted with a GSM-19 v7 Overhauser magnetometer with a second GSM-19 magnetometer for a base station mode for diurnal correction.

A total of 5.275 line kilometers of magnetic survey was conducted on September 20th, 2012. This consisted of 422 magnetometer samples taken at 12.5m intervals.

3. OVERVIEW OF SURVEY RESULTS

3.1 SUMMARY INTERPRETATION

Figure 3: Magnetic Plan Map

The magnetic signature from the survey indicates two potential magnetic signatures within the survey area. The primary signature appears to be in the southern part of the claim. This region appears as a uniform magnetic signature and most likely represents an underlying volcanic unit.

To the north, there appears to be a rather strong magnetic response. This response is characterized by strong increases and decreases within the magnetic signature. From this response, it would ap-pear that a strongly magnetic east-west feature exists. This may indicate an intrusive dike crossing the area, however, the entire north end exhibits a similar signature. This may indicate that an intru-

sive gabbro exists with the stronger magnetic response being a result of a contact or chill margin. This may also indicate the presence of a mineralized stringer zone.

With the topography of the area, this region most likely can be investigated through prospecting. This would allow better identification of the anomalies.

THEORETICAL BASIS AND SURVEY PROCEDURES

TOTAL FIELD MAGNETIC SURVEY Base station corrected Total Field Magnetic surveying is conducted using at least two synchronized magnetome-ters of identical type. One magnetometer unit is set in a fixed position in a region of stable geomagnetic gradi-ent, and away from possible cultural effects (i.e. moving vehicles) to monitor and correct for daily diurnal drift. This magnetometer, given the term ‘base station’, stores the time, date and total field measurement at fixed time intervals over the survey day. The second, remote mobile unit stores the coordinates, time, date, and the total field measurements simultaneously. The procedure consists of taking total magnetic measurements of the Earth’s field at stations, along individual profiles, including Tie and Base lines. A 2 meter staff is used to mount the sensor, in order to optimally minimize localized near-surface geologic noise. At the end of a survey day, the mobile and base-station units are linked, via RS-232 ports, for diurnal drift and other magnetic activity (iono-spheric and sferic) corrections using internal software.

For the gradiometer application, two identical sensors are mounted vertically at the ends of a rigid fiberglass tube. The centers of the coils are spaced a fixed distance apart (0.5 to 1.0m). The two coils are then read simul-taneously, which alleviates the need to correct the gradient readings for diurnal variations, to measure the gradi-ent of the total magnetic field.

Taking Advantage of a “Quirk” of Physics

Overhauser effect magnetometers are essentially proton precession devices except that they produce an order-of magnitude greater sensitivity. These "supercharged" quantum magnetometers also deliver high absolute accu-racy, rapid cycling (up to 5 readings / second), and exceptionally low power consumption.

The Overhauser effect occurs when a special liquid (with unpaired electrons) is combined with hydrogen atoms and then exposed to secondary polarization from a radio frequency (RF) magnetic field. The unpaired electrons transfer their stronger polarization to hydrogen atoms, thereby generating a strong precession signal-- that is ideal for very high-sensitivity total field measurement. In comparison with proton precession methods, RF signal generation also keeps power consumption to an absolute minimum and reduces noise (i.e. generating RF fre-quencies are well out of the bandwidth of the precession signal).

In addition, polarization and signal measurement can occur simultaneously - which enables faster, sequential measurements. This, in turn, facilitates advanced statistical averaging over the sampling period and/or increased cycling rates (i.e. sampling speeds).

• The unique Overhauser unit blends physics, data quality, operational efficiency, system design and op-tions into an instrumentation package that ... exceeds proton precession and matches costlier optically pumped cesium capabilities
