SUMMARY

In late March, April and early May, 1996, three holes totalling 496,6 meters were drilled on the

Petawanga property. Two holes tested the North Central HLEM conductor, a strong northeast-southwest

trending anomaly located at the top of the Central Felsic Volcanic Group, at vertical depths of 30, 75 and

175 meters. The North Central HLEM conductor has been traced with ground geophysical and surface

geological surveying over a strike length of 4 kilometers on the Petawanga property and another 3.5

kilometers across the adjacent Attwood property. Only three drill holes, PO-1, PO-95-10, and PO-95-11,

previously tested this anomaly.

A third hole tested the South Main HLEM anomaly located near the top of the Cormac Volcanic

Group 400 meters southwest along strike from DDH PO-6 at a vertical depth of 70 meters. Previous drilling

(PO-3 to 9, PO-95-12) in the Cormac Volcanics concentrated on the Goldfields and Ryley Cormac showings

(5 holes) and the South Main HLEM anomaly (3 holes).

The 1996 drill holes covered in this report varied from 134 meters to 210 meters in length and tested

anomalies down to a maximum vertical depth of 175 meters. Banded to massive pyrrhotite with lesser

pyrite mineralization and moderate to intense metamorphosed equivalents of hydrothermal alteration of the

felsic metavolcanic stratigraphy was intersected in each of the 1996 drill holes. No economic Cu-Zn

mineralization was intersected in either of the drill holes on the North Central HLEM anomaly and a similar

but narrow local section of fractured felsic tuff mineralized with 5-10 070 chalcopyrite over 0.5 meters was

intersected in the drill hole which further tested the South Main HLEM anomaly.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

A diamond drilling program was carried out on the Petawanga property between March 19 and May 15, 1996 The object was to test two HLEM conductive horizons with associated strong magnetics. The first anomaly (North Central HLEM Anomaly) which was located at the stratigraphic top of favourable Central Felsic Group metavolcanics was tested at depth for potential volcanic massive sulphide mineralization. The HLEM conductive horizon occurs within a zone of intense garnet-chlorite, chlorite-amphibole- garnettmagnetite, and garnet-staurolite alteration. Drill hole PO-10 which was previously drilled near geologically mapped pyroclastic breccia had intersected 4 pyrrhotite-pyrite zones hosted by interbedded moderately to intensely altered (chlorite-garnetimagnetite) felsic lapilli/quartz-eye tuffs and banded argillites. The sulphide zones range in width from 5 meters up to 60 meters in core width and host semi- massive to massive units that vary from l meter core thickness to 13 meters. The second anomaly South Mam HLEM Anomaly) tested is located near the top of the Cormac Volcanic Group. Previous drilling (1991) had intersected 2.09 07o Cu, 32 g/t Ag, 2gH Au over 1.27 meters hosted within a geochemically copper enriched zone in PO-6. An AEM/AMAG survey in 1995 delineated the South Main HLEM anomaly a further 500 meters west of DDH PO-6. In 1995, DDH PO-12 was drilled 200 meters east and along strike from PO- 6. The 45 meters of S-5% disseminated to banded pyrrhotite pyrite mineralization with local concentrations of 30-40 07o and a 0.5 meter section mineralized with S-5% chalcopyrite that was intersected m PO-12 , in conjunction with remobilized massive sulphide intersections and the copper and zinc enrichments intersected in drill holes PO-3 to 9 indicate that there are active Cu and Zn rich hydrothermal systems in the Cormac Volcanic Domain.

2.0 LOCATION AND ACCESS

The property is located in the Thunder Bay Mining District approximately 100 kilometers north of Armstrong and 25 kilometers west of Fort Hope. The property is situated about 5 kilometers south of Petawanga Lake on the Albany River. The Discovery Lake grid is accessible from Armstrong, Nakina or Pickle Lake via float or ski-equipped plane charter to a tent camp on Disco Lake. The lake is shallow and small allowing fixed wing aircraft to exit with only partial cargo loads. Another tent camp was erected in 1995 on Auger Lake which is located l kilometers to the southwest of Disco Lake. Auger Lake is a much larger lake and will accommodate full cargo loads. Diamond drilling programs require helicopter support. Landing strips for wheel based aircraft near the property include Fort Hope and Miminiska Lake (20 kilometers northwest (Figure 1).

3.0 PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

The property encompasses 193 unpatented mining claims (193 units) totalling 3088 hectares. The claims are situated within claim map areas G-378 (Petawanga Lake) and G-287 (Kawitos Lake) of the Thunder Bay Mining Division and are listed below (Figure 2).

The project area is covered by an option agreement between Falconbridge Limited/Shaun Parent/Michael Smith and Noranda Mining and Exploration Inc. The claims were staked by S. Parent and M. Smith who together hold a 25 07o interest. Noranda has the right to earn 5007o (37.5 07o) of Falconbridge's 75 07o interest subject to an NSR by spending 3900,000 over four years and 100 07o of Parent/Smith's total 2507o interest by making cash payments totalling 550,000 to Parent/Smith. Noranda is the operator.

4.0 REGIONAL GEOLOGY

The property is located within an "underexplored" northeast-trending belt of metavolcanics and metasediments along the southern margin of the Uchi Subprovince, part of the Superior Province of the Canadian Shield (Figures 1 and 3a and 3b). This belt connects with the main regional greenstone belt of the Uchi Subprovince about 16 kilometers north of Attwood Lake. According to Wallace (1977), the older metavolcanics are predominantly pillowed and massive mafic flows intermixed with units of andesitic to rhyolitic pyroclastic rocks. The metavolcanics are conformably overlain by clastic metasedimentary rocks consisting mainly of polymictic conglomerate rocks rich in metavolcanic clasts. Ferruginous chemical metasediments occur in several places close to the metavolcanic-metasedimentary interface. The supracrustal sequence is surrounded by granitoid rocks, predominantly trondhjemitic to granodioritic in composition. The rocks have been metamorphosed under amphibolite facies conditions. The property has been interpreted by Falconbridge to consist of five distinct geological domains, the Cormac Volcanics, Central Felsic Volcanics, Western Volcanics, and the Northern and Southern Granite Domains. A number of small localized Cu ± Zn occurrences occur within the Cormac Volcanics and have been previously trenched and/or drill tested. The Central Felsic Domain contains "brickwork" style chlorite-amphibolite-garnet alteration within "lahar-type" deposits where lapilli to block sized fragments occur infrequently.

5.0 PREVIOUS WORK

Throughout the years, geological mapping and exploration in the Petawanga Lake-Kawitos Lake areas has been limited by their remote location and poor accessibility. Geological maps published by government agencies (Geological Survey of Canada-1960 and the Ontario Department of Mines -1969 ) which encompassed the current property were the result of reconnaissance surveys that were part of much larger areas. These maps provide a very generalized geological data base. In 1973 the Ontario Geological Survey initiated a program of detailed geological mapping in the eastern part of the Uchi Subprovince. Included in this program were the Attwood Lake area (Wallace 1977) situated immediately to the southwest

of the Petawanga property, and the Miminiska Lake and Opikeigen Lake areas (Wallace 1978) situated immediately to the north. In the past 35 years four companies are known to have directed mineral exploration activity on the Petawanga property toward the location of base metal sulphide or gold deposits.

In 1961, Boylen Engineering Offices followed up a previous airborne reconnaissance survey with ground magnetic and magniphase EM surveys, geological mapping, trenching and 11 diamond drill holes totalling 1276 meters.

In 1976, New Jersey Zinc Exploration Company Limited undertook geological mapping and prospecting and completed 9 diamond drill holes totalling 317 meters following an AEM survey of the region.

During 1986 Goldfields followed up a Mag, VLF, EM airborne survey with linecutting, outcrop stripping and 1 drill hole totalling 245 meters.

Falconbridge Limited obtained an option on the property in 1990 and conducted linecutting, geological mapping, ground Mag, VLF and HLEM geophysical surveying and mechanical stripping. In the summer of 1991, nine drill holes totalling 1723.5 meters tested a number of geological and geophysical anomalies.

Noranda obtained an option on the property in 1994. Geophysical surveying, geologic mapping and lithogeochemical sampling were completed in 1994. During March-April, 1995 an AEM/AMAG survey was flown over the adjacent Attwood claim group. In June, 1995 downhole pulse electromagnetic surveying was carried out on four holes previously drilled by Falconbridge on the Petawanga property. A diamond drilling program with three holes totalling 692 meters was also completed in June, 1995. Linecutting, ground magnetics and HLEM surveying were done on extensions of the Disco Lake grid in conjunction with similar surveys on the adjacent Attwood property in the early winter of 1996.

6.0 DIAMOND DRILLING

The diamond drilling was contracted to W.G. Langley Ltd. of Brampton, Ontario. The holes were drilled utilizing a JKS 300 diamond drill with BDBGM thin wall size drill rods. Core was logged in metric units. Sampling was done on geologic controlled intervals from 0.4 meters to 2.2 meters but generally averaged 1.5 meters over areas of sulphide mineralization. A total of 118 drill core samples were submitted to Accurassay Labs Ltd. for Cu-Zn-Ag±Au analyses. In addition, a suite of 8 core samples from the three holes was analyzed for whole rock determinations by Chemex Labs of Mississauga, Ont. These data will aid in the evaluation of the varying intensities of hydrothermal alteration observed to date and will help focus future drill targeting. Thin section and petrography examinations were done on 3 core specimens of intense alteration. Analytical procedures and results are appended to this report.

Drill hole locations are plotted on Figure 3 and Map 1. Stacked profiles of each of the drill hole targets are provided on Figures 4-6. The drill logs and cross sections are appended.

7.0 DISCUSSION OF RESULTS

Three diamond drill holes totalling 496.6 meters were completed. The first and third holes were designed to test the Main HLEM conductive horizon which has been delineated for 7.0 kilometers of strike length and occurs at the top of the felsic volcanic group. The North Central HLEM anomaly varies in expression along strike from multiple conductive sources to a single conductive feature.

The first hole, PO-13, intersected the target conductive zone between 90.6-111.5m at a vertical depth between 60-80m. The HLEM anomaly at this section is comprised of a graphitic-pyritic argillite- exhalite zone at the top of the Central Felsic Metavolcanic Group in contact with the overlying Western

Page 14: PROJECT NO.327 THUNDER BAY. ONTARIO SENIOR GEOLOGIST · Group 400 meters southwest along strike from DDH PO-6 at a vertical depth of 70 meters. Previous drilling (PO-3 to 9, PO-95-12)

Mafic Metavolcanic Group. Sulphide mineralization consists mainly of 20-2507o blebs and bands of pyrite with lessor pyrrhotite including two narrow (10 cm) bands of massive pyrite-pyrrhotite. No significant copper-zinc mineralization was noted; traces of chalcopyrite and sphalerite were noted in the exhalite unit as well as the overlying altered felsic tuffs. Values up to 110 ppm copper and 1112 ppm zinc occur within the upper sulphidized felsic tuffs, and a very weak geochemical zinc enrichment (up to 512 ppm zinc) occurs within the banded argillites hosting the semi-massive to massive sulphide intersections. The semi-massive to massive pyrite-pyrrhotite bands themselves were relatively depleted in copper and zinc suggesting that they occur laterally distal to BM deposition. The footwall felsics exhibit striking porphyroblastic staurolite and garnet alteration within a moderately sericitized and chloritized aphanitic finely bedded felsic tuff. The hole was shut down within a porphyroblastic staurolite biotite felsic schist. The stratigraphy intersected in DDH PO-96-13 correlates well with the first or top conductive zone of PO-95-10 where an interbanded pyritic argillite and massive sulphide exhalite unit overlies an intensely altered (staurolite-garnet porphyroblasts) bedded felsic tuff. In PO-95-10 the hole was drilled further to intersect a second massive sulphide (13 meters of po-py) zone located at the contact of altered felsic lapilli tuffs and felsic bedded tuffs approximately 80 meters down stratigraphy from the first exhalite. It would have taken another 100 meters of drilling of PO-96-13 to test this horizon with no HLEM anomaly to target on this section.

The second drill hole, PO-96-14, targeted the South Main HLEM anomaly at 75 meters vertical depth, 400 meters west of drill hole PO-6. Airborne AEM/AMAG carried out in 1995 and ground geophysics completed in April, 1996, extended the South Main HLEM anomaly another 500 meters to the southeast of drill hole PO-6. PO-96-14 intersected the target conductive zone between 68-122 meters downhole at a vertical depth between 55-85m. The HLEM anomaly at this section is comprised of 2-3 07o pyrrhotite and trace chalcopyrite with local 20-30 07o pyrrhotite bands over 0.4 meters hosted by altered mafic and felsic tuffs within the Cormac Volcanic Group. Alteration is intense throughout the drilled section and is comprised mainly of porphyroblastic garnetistaurolite and fine-grained chlorite and biotite. A local section of fractured felsic tuff was mineralized with S-5% chalcopyrite over 0.5 meters. Assays of this section returned a value of 1.2 07o copper, 257 ppm zinc and 18 grams per tonne silver. Assays also indicate that the sulphidized units throughout the entire hole are geochemically enriched in copper up to 1720 ppm copper. This section is very similar in morphology, alteration and sulphide mineralization to that previously intersected in PO-12 and PO-6 along strike to the northeast. PO-12 was collared 300 meters east of PO-6. Assay results of drill core from PO-95-12 indicated a geochemical enrichment of Q.1% copper, 346 ppm zinc and 17.7 grams per tonne silver over 23.3 meters including D.22% copper and 27.8 grams per tonne silver over 8.5 meters. The zone has been tested by 7 drill holes over a strike length of nearly 2 kilometers and a best intersection of 2.09 07o Cu, 32gA Ag over 1.27 meters has been reported from PO-6. No other conductive features remain untested on this horizon and no further drilling is warranted at this time. Downhole PEM surveying is recommended for PO-96-14.

The third drill hole, PO-96-15, was targeted to test multiple conductors within the North Central HLEM anomaly 200 meters northeast along strike from PO-1 at vertical depths of 50, 75 and 175 meters. The first target conductive zone was intersected between 40.8-45 meters downhole at a vertical depth between 30-34m. The HLEM anomaly at this section is comprised of 20-3007o pyrite-pyrrhotite hosted by altered mafic tuffs within the Western Volcanic Group. The second conductive zone was intersected between 62.0-91.1 meters at a vertical depth of 45-70 meters. This zone is comprised of a mixed zone of mineralized felsic tuffs and exhalite near the top of the Central Felsic Group. The unit is very siliceous and is mineralized with 20-30 07o pyrrhotite and lessor pyrite. Three 40 cm. massive sulphide bands are included in this section. The third conductive zone was intersected between 130-176 meters at a vertical depth between 100-130 meters. A number of narrow units of strongly altered (chlorite-amphibole-garnet) felsic crystal tuffs are mineralized with 10-15 07o pyrrhotite±pyrite. Assay results indicate very little copper-zinc geochemical enrichment associated with any of these conductive horizons.

Petrography examinations of thin sections of drill core from PO-96-13 confirm that the rocks are intensely altered and composed essentially of quartz and muscovite with coarse porphyroblasts of staurolite and altered biotite, the latter in places almost completely replaced by chlorite. The presence of 10 07o cordierite was also noted.

There is some definite alkali enrichment (K 2 O*MgO)- depletion (Na 2O-*-CaO) trends from major oxide geochemistry of drill core samples from PO-96-13 and PO-96-14. The sample analysed from PO-96- 14 is near the collar above the target zone between 68-122 meters and is similar to a sample analyzed in PO-95-12 with a high Ishikawa index of 82, both suggesting proximity to massive sulphide mineralization to the north or up-stratigraphy from the South Main HLEM anomaly. Little alteration is indicated from major oxide geochemistry of samples from PO-96-15.

8.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Three drill holes intersected intense chlorite-garnet-staurolitetbiotite alteration mineral assemblages and sulphide zones which range in width from 11 meters up to 66 meters in core width and host semi- massive to massive pyrite-pyrrhotite units that vary from 0.1 meter core thickness to 0.4 meters. No significant copper-zinc mineralization was intersected.

The North Central HLEM anomaly which has a strike length in excess of 8 km has now been drilled tested with 5 DDH's on the Petawanga property spaced approximately 1 km apart on lines 2200W, 3100W, 3300W, 4400W and 5500W. Only DDH PO95-10 on line 4400W has tested a zone of multiple conductive features. The second or central massive sulphide intersection in hole PO-95-10 was the most impressive in terms of VMS textures and morphology. PO-1 on line 3300W was collared within altered felsic stratigraphy and probably overshot the top or first conductive zone. It intersected a 1 meter band of fractured controlled semi massive pyrrhotite hosted by an altered felsic tuff and may also have overshot the second or central massive sulphide horizon. The strongest alteration was intersected on lines 4400W and 5500W and appears that the most intense alteration is spatially associated with the apparent felsic center which lies between lines 3800W and 5700W. Further drill testing is recommended to test this zone on lines 5000W and 3800W on the Petawanga property. HLEM surveying has previously delineated three untested conductive features to the east and along strike with the North Central Exhalite horizon. Drill testing is also recommended for each of these targets on the Discovery Lake Grid (West)-north of the NYLA occurrence, Central Grid Zone, and the T-Bone Lake Grid Zone.

A persistent copper-zinc±silver geochemical enrichment exists within most of the altered stratigraphy intersected along the South Main HLEM anomaly.. The zone has been tested by 7 drill holes over a strike length of nearly 2 kilometers and a best intersection of 2.09 07o Cu, 32g7t Ag over 1.27 meters has been reported from PO-6. No other conductive features remain untested on this horizon and no further drilling is warranted at this time. Proximity to massive sulphide mineralization to the north or up stratigraphy from the South Main HLEM anomaly is suggested from an alkalic enrichment - depletion alteration index of the major oxide geochemistry ((K^O+MgO) l (K 2 CHMgCHNa 2 CHCaO) *100)) for a sample analyzed from PO-96-14

The North Central HLEM conductor has been traced geophysically for over 8 kilometers across the Attwood and adjacent Petawanga properties. A total of seven drill holes have tested this sulphide iron formation/exhalite horizon within the upper portions of the felsic volcanic rocks and intersected massive sulphide zones up to 13 meters in core length with only geochemical zinc enrichment detected to date. Iron formations are spatially and temporally related to several massive sulphide deposits in the world including the "Tetsusekiei" (red chert) at the Fukazawa Mine, a Kuroko - type deposit in Hokuroku, Japan, the Main Contact Tuff at the Millenbach deposit in Noranda and the Key Tuffite at the Matagami deposit, Quebec. These hydrothermal sediments are thought to be analogues of modern metaliferous sediments which were deposited from hydrothermal fluids which vented into a submarine basin. Studies of modern sediments reveal that their bulk geochemical composition vary with distance from the source of the hydrothermal fluids. Geochemical variations (e.g. Au, As, Hg, Bi, Sb, Ba/Ti, Cu+Pb+Zn, Fe/Mn), sulphur and carbon isotope analyses as well as mineral presence or absence (e.g. carbonates) in iron formations can be used to guide exploration by providing effective discriminants to massive sulphide mineralization. It is recommended that future drill hole targeting include the application of iron formation and related hydrothermal sediments geochemistry studies

AT96-1 91m: AMPHIBOLITE; LAYERS OF PLA6IOCLASE-BIOTITE-QUARTZ-ZOISITE- SPHENE, CALCITE-CHLORITE

Foliated, fine- to medium-grained, dark green to red—brown and white, gneissic rock; only traces of stain for K—feldspar, trace magnetism, minor reaction to HC1 in places. Modal mineralogy in polished thin section is approximately:

Amphibole forms subhedral crystals rarely over l mm long, commonly in irregular aggregates up to several mm across. Pleochroism is olive to blue-green, extinction angle c •'''•Z' about 15 degrees. It is mostly intergrown with carbonate or biotite. Biotite forms subhedral to euhedral flakes up to 0.6 mm in diameter, with colourless to red-brown pleoc h r o i sm; mi n or alt erat i on t o c hl or i t e is c ommon in pi ac es, e s pie c: i all y near car b on a t e—r i eh layers. The chlorite is mainly length- fast, with moderate to high birefringence for chlorite, suggesting a h g--r l c h variety; it forms subhedral flakes of similar size to biotite.

Carbonate forms subhedral crystals, likely mainly calcite, up to O.S mm diameter and concentrated in certain layers intergrown with amphibole. Other layers (red-brown in hand specimen) are rich in sub- to anhedral, rounded domains of '"'calcic plagioclase up to 0.5 mm in diameter (slightly elongate parallel to foliation and full of fine, 1O- 50 micron rounded inclusions of quartz) intergrown with biotite and minor zoisite and sphene. Relief well above quartz suggests a calcic plagioclase; in places, there is minor to moderate alteration to fine sericite (subhedral flakes of 25-35 microns diameter) axnd a fuzzy alteration product that forms between it and zoisite, and on a larger scale between the biotite-rich and amphibole-ri eh layers.

Zoisite i: or clinozoisite) forms sub— to euhedral crystals to 0.25 mm size, with anomalous blue and yellow-green interference colours and no pleochroism. It is intergrown with a fine-grained, fuzzy and poorly crystallized mineral that could be ?epidote-cl inozoisi t e after plagioclase (associated with other calcic minerals such as sericitized plagioclase, sphene and calcite). Sphene forms subhedral crystals to 0.3 mm, elongate parallel to foliation, cored by minor ilmenite.

Traces of pyrrhotite form subhedral crystals to O.15 mm, mixed in places with chalcopyrite of similar size and containing tiny 10-20 micron flames of ?pyrite or pentlandite (too small to identify positively). Bulfides are most commonly intergrown with amphibole.

ATSG-1 14Sm: MUSCOVITE-QUARTZ-MI NOR CHLORITE SCHIST WITH PORPHYROBLASTS OF "'STAUROLITE, ALTERED TD MUSCOVITE-QUARTZ-CHLORITE-SULFIDES

Dark grey to blackish, well foliated schist containing about 10- 157. prominent O. 5 cm por phyr obi ast s, minor pyrite and pyrrhotite (rock is moderately magnetic, but shows no reaction to cold dilute HC1 or stain for K- f el dspar '.i . Modal mineralogy in polished thin section is ap pr o x i mat el y:

This rock consists of fine-grained, wel l-fol i ated muscovite-minor quartz schist hosting large subhedral altered porphyroblast relics and clots of chl or i te-sulfi de; other chlorite crystals are randomly oriented. Muscovite forms sub- to euhedral flakes up to about 0.25 mm in diameter, but is commonly semi—massive, containing only minor quartz; there is a gradation to layers of almost pure quartz with minor muscovite. Quartz occurs as subhedral, mainly annealed crystals generally less than O.15 mm in diameter, but in coarse "clots" with chlorite and sulfides, quartz forms sub- to anhedral crystals to 0.7 mm size and traces of lamellar structure, likely indicating strain. Chlorite forms euhedral length—fast crystals to 1.25 mm, bent in places, with first-order grey birefringence and very pale colour indicating Mg-rich composition.

The relict porphyrobiasts are mainly composed of a massive, optically continuous, olive-green to yellowish—brown!sh mineral with low to moderate birefringence, weak pleochroism, and full of inclusions of fine rounded quartz (10-5O microns) and muscovite (to O. 2 mm!) and chlorite (to 0.5 mm); the mineral seems likely to be staurolite, by comparison to other samples in this suite, but could be a hydrous (partly altered) biotite. Core areas of the porphyrobiasts are replaced by muscovite, or muscovite and quartz. In other examples, patches up to 0.3 mm across of very fine-grained brown material could be '"'sphene and/or rutile mixed with leucoxene. If they are not staurolite, it would be difficult to speculate as to the original i d en t i t y o f t h s p or p h y r ob l a st s .

Pyrite forms euhedral crystals to about l mm diameter, commonly containing fine (2O — 3O micron) rounded to irregu.liu" inclusions of chalcopyrite, and intergrown in places with subhedral to lath-like pyrrhotite up to 0.5 mm in size, elongate parallel to foliation. In places there are traces of rutile (euhedral crystiUs to 5'0 microns) associated with the sulfides.

AT36-1 22Om: QUARTZ-MUSCOVITE SCHIST WITH PDRPHYROBLASTS OF STAUROLITE AND CHLORITE-KSPAR ALTERED BIOTITE; MINOR DUARTZ-PYRRHOTITE VEIN ING

Dark grey to blackish, ma f i c -l ooki ng rock characterized- by 2.07. euhedral dark crystals to 3 mm long and l O'/, black "'biotite books interleaved with a mineral that stains for potassium. The rock is slightly magnetic but shows no reaction to cold dilute HC1; modtU mineralogy in polished thin section is approximately:

Quarts 457.Muscovite 3O7.Biotite (chl or i t i zed ) l O"/.'"'Staurolite 1O7.Chlorite 2-37.K-feldspar 17.Pyrrhotite, trace chalcopyrite, pyrite l*/.Sphene, rutile -t!'/.

This rock consists of porphyr obi ast s of altered biotite and '''staurolite in a quartz-muscovite matrix. The matrix varies from quartz-rich and coarse (sub— to anhedral crystals to 0.5 mm) to muscovite-ri eh and finer (muscovite forming eu— to subhedral flakes to 0.25 mm; quartz to O.I mm). The euhedral porphyrobiasts appear to be staurolite (high relief, low first-order grey birefringence, parallel extinction, length-slow, optically positive, pale yellow pleochroism, full of fine rounded quartz inclusions to 25 microns). The crystals are mainly less than 3 mm in length and in places form crossed (penetration) twins.

Biotite porphyrobiasts are euhedral to somewhat rounded in outline, up to 3 mm in diameter, and are partly interleaved by K- feldspar (relief below that of quartz; yellow stain in etched slab) as subhedral, in places twinned, crystals up to 0.15 mm long; elsewhere, the biotite is replaced by '"'chlorite (very low birefringence, pale colour, length—slow; essentially a hydration of the biotite). Muscovite commonly coats the outer margins of the biotite crystals. Rare sphene as euhedral crystals to 5O microns are associated with pyrrhotite in the biotite crystals, and euhedral rutile to 0.3 mm long are found at their margins. Rare pleochroic haloes are formed around minute (10 micron) crystals of '"'allanite in the chlorite.

The rock is crossed by a 1-2 mm thick quartz-sulfi de veincontaining subhedral pyrrhotite to O.5 mm with very fine (!1O—25 micron!) flame—like inclusions of pyrite and surrounded by minor chalcopyrite to 0.1 mm. Minor rutile, as euhedral crystals to 0.3 mm, is associated withi the vein margins.

PS96-13 115 m: QUARTZ-MUSCOVITE SCHIST WITH COARSE PORPHYROBLASTS OF STAUROLITE AND CHLORITE-KSPAR ALTERED BIOTITE; TRACE GARNET

D au" l: grey, finely foliated to laminated rock containing about 25X small dark por phyr obi ast s to 2 mm size. The rock shows traces of magnetism, but no reaction to cold dilute HC1; the same minor stain for K-feldspar occurs in biotite crystals. Modal mineralogy in polished thin section is approximately:

This slide consists of large to very large porphyrobiasts of staurolite and smaller biotite in a matrix of quartz and muscovite. The matrix varies from fine (mainly 50—1OO micron subhedral, annealed quartz and lesser, euhedral 75—1OO micron flakes of muscovite) to coarse, irregular lensey areas of quartz (sub- to anhedral, to 0.3 mm diameter) that form around and cut across staurolite porphyrobiasts. In some elongate areas subparallel to foliation the matrix is rich in very fine (2—5 micron) opaque inclusions, too fine to ideintify with certainty, but possibly pyrrhotite.

The staurolite porphyrobiasts are euhedral to subhedral in outline, up to l cm in length, and appear to be both clear (free of inclusions) and highly crowded by characteristic rounded quartz inclusions, in the same crystal or penetrating twinned crystals; it almost looks as if the i ne lusion-free areas are remnants of an alteration process that has produced the areas of inclusion-rich material (commonly both areas are optically continuous). Only in at few cases can the typical yellow pleochroism be seen. It is possible that the inclusion-rich portions are overgrowths on cores of clear staurolite; the clear portions do in places almost look like a separate mineral. There is very rare garnet (euhedral, to O.2 mm, colourless; no an omalous an i sot r op i sm).

Biotite forms euhedral crystals or books up to 2: mm in diameter (."3. mm where aggregated), containinq common minute radioactive crystals surrounded by pleochroic haloes. In places the biotite is interleaved to almost completely replaced by chlorite (length-slow, pale green) as subhedral flakes to 0.35 mm, and minor K-feldspar as subhedral, elongate crystals to 0.15 mm.

Pyrrhotite forms elongate lath-like to subhedral crystals up te al most l mm long, commonly inter gr own or associated with finer tabular' euhedral ilmenite crysta-ils to 0.15 mm (ilmenite also occurs separate from pyrrhotite). There are traces of chalcopyrite (to O.1mm) and very fine flame-like '"'pyrite (3O microns) in the coarsest pyrrhotite blebs.

This rock is essentially composed of a matrix of quartz, muscovite and "'cordierite or plagioclase that hosts scattered large por phyr obi asts of ?c h l or i t i zed biotite, possibly after some former prograde mineral, arid abundant finer, partly chl or it i zed biotite crystals.

The matrix varies from quartz—rich to muscovi te-'?cor di er i te rich. Quartz forms subhedral crystals to 50 microns, mainly annealed, except in quartz-rich "sweats" or lenses that are up to 2 mm thick and contain sub- to anhedral j, also mainly annealed, quartz up to O.S mm in diameter. '"'Cordierite or '"'plagioclase is chiefly distinguished by its- partial alteration to fine c l ay —seri c i t e (10-2Q micron flakes); rare subhedral '"'hexagonal outlines and apparently small negative 2V, together with low birefringence and relief close to that of quartz, are suggestive of cordierite. If however it is plagioclase, the lack of yellow stain in the etched slab axnd relief close to that of quartz would suggest an intermediate composition, perhaps '"'andesine, but this cannot be confirmed optically due to the small grain size (subhedral, to O.I mm; no twinning visible). Muscovite forms euhedral flakes rarely over O.25 mm in diameter. Minor fine pyrrhotite as subhedral laths to 0.2 mm is common in the host rock also, coarsening to 0.5 mm in the quartz-rich "sweats", and fine rutile forms euhedral crystals to 50 microns l cm g.

It j s not clear whether biotite is altering to or from the "'sillimanite.

Chlorite forms euhedral flakes to 0.5 mm diameter with first-order birefringence, pale colour, and length-fast character suggesting Mg-rich composition.

PQ96-13 133m: QUARTZ-MUSCOVITE SCHIST WITH LARGE PDRPHYROBLASTS OF ^-'STAUROLITE AND SMALLER BIOTITE; TRACE TOURMALINE, ?GARMET

Grey, porphyroblastic rock largely without foliation containing about 15-207. small dark biotite crystals to 2.5 mm and scattered large porphyrobiasts to over l cm C some of which contain a reddish mineral). The rock is weakly magnetic, probably due to fine '"'pyrrhotite, and contains traces of yellow-stained K-feldspar in the biotite (see etched slab). Modal mineralogy in thin section is approximately:

Quartz 35X Muscovite 30"/. Staurolite C?) 15"/. Biotite ' 157. Chlorite 27. Opaque ('"'pyrrhotite, '"'ilmenite) IX Tourmaline C?schor l i t i c ) 17. K-feldspar <l"/. Garnet C?) -••. IX

This is a quartz-mica schist containing large porphyrobiasts of '"'staurolite and smaller biotite crystals. The matrix consists of quartz and muscovite in variable proportions, with quartz forming subhedral, commonly somewhat elongated (2:1) crystals to 0.1 mm (except adjacent to biotite crystals, where subhedral equant quartz is up toO.7 mm diameter). Muscovite forms euhedral flakes commonly less than O.25 mm in di ameter.

Biotite forms generally euhedral crystals or books to about 2 mm in diameter, containing abundant fine pleochroic haloes around some fine mineral containing a radioactive material. The pleochroism is generally in shades of medium brown, with only minor alteration to chlorite, and minor inclusions of fine (1OO micron) elongate K— feldspar. Chlorite is length-fast and has moderate (first-order white) birefringence, indicating Mg—rich composition; euhedral crystals are up t o 0. 3 mrn d i amet er .

The large porphyrobiasts are characterized by moderately high relief, very abundant fine quartz inclusions, low (grey) birefringence and very pale yellowish to pinkish colour; they may be '"'staurolite or '"'andalusite, but comparison to the similar mineral in other sections suggests the former is more likely. Crystals of biotite are rarely included in the large porphyrobiasts; oriented quartz inclusions show swirls and folds in the crystals ('?syn — met amor phi c growth or 'T'post — metamorphic crenulation cleavage; appears to line up with crenulation in muscovite and areas of fine shreddy brownish '"'hydrobiotite).

Minor tourmaline with greenish-brown pleochroism ('"'schor l i t i c composition) forms slender euhedral prisms to 0.35 mm lonq in certain layers of the rock. Rare si eve—textured crystals (inclusions of quartz, muscovite, tourmaline; veined by quartz and '"'altered to chlorite or '"'cordierite) that are close to isotropic, with euhedral hexagonal outlines under l mm in diameter and high relief, suggest 'T'garneb (with anomalous ani sot r opi sm) .
