SUMMARY

Assessment work for 1987 on the Hall Group consisting of recon

naissance geological mapping and rock and silt sampling carried

out in June 1986 and July 1987 has been completed

o

The Hall Group is underlain by Sicker Group rocks in the south

and by Island Intrusions dioritic rocks in the north A magne

ti te hornblende rich border phase at least 125 m wide of the

Island Intrusions at their contact with the Sicker rocks contains

Au Ag Cu mineralized quartz veining up to 30 cm wide Results

from grab sampling range up to 340 ppb Au with up to 8 5 ppm Ag

and 18 617 ppm Cu Myra Formation rocks occurring in the south

western corner of the property have returned results of up to

4 66 Zn 0 13 Cu and 0 50 Pb with anomalous Au and Ag values

over narrow widths in numerous diamond drill holes on the adjacent Abermin Corp Lara property Two rock samples and one silt

sample from the area of Mount Hall mapped as Sediment Sill Unit

rocks returned weakly anomalous Au valuesn

o

o

o

J

Phase I exploration of the Hall Group is recommended to consist

of detailed and reconnaissance geological mapping and rock

sampling soil geochemistry and magnetometer VLF EM surveys at

an estimated cost of 60 000 Phase II detailed geological and

geophysical exploration is recommended at an estimated cost of

100 000 contingent upon favourable Phase I results

The Hall Group is located 8 km southwest of Ladysmith on NTS

mapsheet 92B 13 centred at about 48055 N latitude 123054 W

longitude in the Nanaimo tlining Division of British Columbia

Figure 1

Access to the property is via the Holland Lake road which turns

off from Highway 1 just north of Ladysmith The first 1 3 km is

a good paved road through the outskirts of Ladysmith the next

15 km to the north edge of the Hall property is a very rough

minimally maintained gravel and dirt road A further 7 km alonga steadily deteriorating road the southeast corner of the

property is reached Access to the southwest corner of the

claims is from Duncan up MacMillan Bloedel s Chemainus River

road to the Lara property access road 15 6 km west of Duncan A

distance of 9 7 km up the Lara property road system the Hall

Group is reached and the road suddenly becomes totally unmain

tained Several old logging roads exist in the NE NW SE and

SIl corners of the Hall property but they are all completelyundriveable and indeed in the case of the SW road virtuallyunwalkable due to extremely thick willow growth on the road

All things considered the best access to the Hall Group is byhelicopter

The following description of Sicker Group lithologies is based on

Muller s 1980a work as Massey s work is not yet completed

o The Nitinat Formation Unit 3 consists predominantly of

mafic volcanic rocks most commonly flow breccias or agglomerates including some massive flows and rare pillow basalts

Locally medium grained generally massive basaltic tuff is

interbedded wi th the flows The flow brecc ia is composed of

fragments of basalt up to 30 cm in length containing phenocrystsof uralitized pyroxene as well as amygdules both from I mm to

more than I cm in size in a matrix of finer grained similar

basalt Thin sections show pale green amphibole uralite is

replacing clinopyroxene Urali tized gabbroic to diod tic rocks

underlie and intrude the volcanics and are believed to represent

feeder dykes sills and magma chambers to the volcanics The

Nitinat Formation may be distinguished from the similar Karmutsen

Formation by the abundance of uralite phenocrysts a usual lack

of pillow basalts lack of dallasite alteration between pillowscharacteristic of the Karmutsen locally pervasive foliation

and lower greenschist or higher metamorphic grade

Formation possibly with minor unconformity In the Nitinat

Cameron River area the Myra Formation is made up of a lower

massive to widely banded basaltic tuff and breccia unit a middle

thinly banded albi te trachyte tuff and argillite unit and an

upper thick bedded medium grained albite trachyte tuff and

breccia unit In the lower unit crudely layered mottled maroon

and green volcaniclastic greywacke grit and breccia are

succeeded by beds of massive medium grained dark tuff up to 20 m

thick interlayered with thin bands of alternating light and dark

fine grained tuff with local fine to coarse breccias containingfragments of Nitinat Formation volcanics The middle unit

comprises a sequence of thinly interbedded light feldspathictuff albite trachyte or keratophyre composition and dark marine

Nitinat Formation overlain by a marker unit consisting of a

sequence of thin bedded cherty tuffs with several metres of

coarse breccia containing fragments of amygdaloidal volcanics

between it and the Nitinat Formation Overlying the marker unit

are grey to black feldspathic tuffs and argillaceous sediments

and minor breccias Muller 1980a considers the marker unit to

correspond to the lower unit of the Myra Formation while the

overlying unit of tuffs and sediments is correlated with the

middle unit and probably contains the upper unit as well

breccia interbedded with black argillite and some greywacke The

rocks have been converted to quartz chlorite sericite schist in

steep and overturned isoclinal folds Breccia fragments are

commonly epidotized The Tyee Quartz Porphyry is a porphyriticrhyoli te containing quartz eyes to 5 mm that occurs partly as

cross cutting sills and partly as flows within the MyraFormation Tyee Quartz Porphyry is related to the SaltspringIntrusions

The southwesternmost corner of the property is underlain by MyraFormation rocks including quartz sericite schist metamorphosedwelded rhyolite tuff sericite schist and dacite to rhyodacitetuffs Unit 2 Outcrop is extremely scarce in this area of the

property even along roads The majori ty of the rocks are

strongly foliated with a northwesterly strike and steep to sub

vertical dips

rI

Muller 1980b has mapped a broad sequence of Sediment Sill Unit

rocks Unit 4 overlying the Myra Formation to the northeast In

the southwestern part of the property only one outcrop was

observed within the area mapped as Sediment sill Unit This was

an outcrop of medium grained massive andesite gabbro In the

Mount Hall area Sediment Sill Unit rocks include fine grainedoften purplish dac i te tuff black chert cherty tuff and black

cherty argillite and occasional thin layers of gabbroic rock

The chert and cherty argillite are well banded striking north

west and dipping gently southwest while all other rock types are

massive with no discernable layering The presence of inter

mediate pyroclastics in this sequence indicates that these rocks

may belong to the Myra Formation rather than the Sediment Sill

Unit

In the southeast and northwest corners of the property gabbroicrocks Unit 4a are exposed These rocks appear to be part of a

major gabbroic sill extending across the entire property and up

to 800 m or more in width The rocks from the southeast corner

are fine to medium grained generally massive dark green

gabbros Locally coarse hornblende rich magnetite zones

occur an indication that Island Intrusions rocks likely occur at

a fa irly shallow depth below surface In the northwes t corner

the rocks are medium to coarse grained generally feldsparporphyritic gabbros The feldspar phenocrysts occur as rosettes

up to 2 cm in diameter mak ing up as much as 20 of the rock

Locally magnetite occurs in quantities up to 5 The feldsparflowers are diagnostic of the Sediment Sill Unit sills which

are believed to represent feeders to the Triassic Karmutsen

Formation

The northern area of the Hall property is underlain by Island

Intrusions diorite to quartz diorite Unit 9 At their contact

with the Sicker Group rocks a hybrid magnetite rich border phaseup to at least l25 m wide is developed Unit 9a The only area

that the border phase rock was observed in outcrop is on the

northwestern slopes of Mount Hall but float located on the

northern slopes of Mount Hall and in the northwest corner of the

property indicates that the border phase is present at least

locally along much of the intrusive contact On Mount Hall the

border phase cons ists of coarse grained diori te to hornble nd ite

with up to 50 magnetite The magnetite occurs as irregularmasses up to 5 mm in size or as rectangular to elongate lath like

grains up to 50 mm long by 2 5 mm wide Hornblendite consists of

al tered diori te wi th up to 60 or more coarse hornblende laths

8 l0 mm long The border phase rocks are locally cut by numerous

quartz veins up to about 25 cm wide some of which are mineral

ized wi th pyri te chalcopyrite andfor magnetite A shear zone

exposed in the NE road offsets the border phase rocks approx

imately 200 m

6 0 PROPOSED WORK PROGRAM

6 1 Plan

Phase I exploration of the Hall Group is designed to follow up

the anomalous results of the 1986 87 exploration and to completereconnaissance scale geological coverage of the entire property

Detailed geological mapping and rock sampling is to be carried

out in the area of the Island IntrusionsfSicker Group contact

where auriferous quartz veins are known to occur Mapping and

sampling will be used to locate and trace the contact and

associated border phase rocks to the west of the known zone on

Mount Hall Two test lines of soil geochemical sampling magnetometer and VLF EM will be established over the known zone to

determine whether these methods can provide useful information

about the location and or magnitude of the gold mineralization

Geological mapping and rock sampling will also be carried out

over the areas of the property which have not yet been covered

Of particular interest is the area of Sediment Sill Unit rocks

on Mount Hall which have yielded two anomalous Au results from

rock samples and one from a silt sample In addition to search

ing for further gold values it is necessary to determine whether

these rocks belong to the Sediment Sill Unit or the Myra

Formation

The lack of outcrop on the southern slopes of Coronation Mountain

prevents the location of the Sedimen t s ill Uni tfMyra Forma tion

contact from being located with any precision Due to the occur

rence of significant mineralization within the Myra rocks on the

adjacent Lara property the southwest corner of the Hall Groupwill be explored with a geochemicalfgeophysical grid supplementedby geological mapping and sampling of any available outcrops in

the area A baseline running parallel to the hillside will be

established with grid lines totalling about 12 line km at 100 m

8 0 RECOMMENDATIONS

1 It is recommended that detailed geological mapping and rock

sampling be carried out along the contact of Island Intru

sions rocks with Sicker Group rocks to explore for addition

al Au Ag Cu mineralization such as that discovered on the

northwest side of Mount Hall

2 lines of soil sampling and magnetometerfVLF EM

are recommended to be carried out over the zone of

mineralized border phase rocks to determine whether

these methods can supply useful information in

andfor delineating this type of mineralized zone

3 It is recommended that soil sampling magnetometer and

VLF EM surveys and geological mapping and sampling of any

available outcrops be carried out on a grid established in

the southwestern corner of the property over the Hyra

Formation rocks to determine whether they host mineral

ization similar to that on the adjacent Abermin Corp Lara

property

4 It is recommended that the Sediment Sill Unit rocks on

Mount Hall be investigated with geological mapping and rock

sampling with the aims of locating gold mineralization as

indicated by samples 17716 17718 and 1152 and to determine

hether the rocks belong to the Sediment Sill Unit or MyraFormation
