Larder Lake Mining DivisionMatachewan AreaN.T.S. No. 42A/2

Longitude 800 , 42'W, Latitude 480 , 02'N

B) LOCATION MAP: Figure l

C) ACCESS

The claims straddle the Montreal River. They are accessible by water

from the Town of Matachewan - the distance being 10 kms. They are also

accessible by all-terrain vehicle via a tractor road which extends from Hwy

566 for 7 kms to an Ontario Hydro control dam located on the C.V. Group.

The exit point for this road is 5 kms north of Matachewan.

D) DESCRIPTION Figure 2

The group consists of 6 contiguous claim groups totalling 37 claim

units which are numbered: LI 213953, L1222565-66, L1222582, L1222689-

90.

E) THIS IS A GOLD PROSPECT

Vein type deposits are the most common in the area - similar to the

Matachewan Consolidated Mine and the Ashley Mine. Both mines were

local past producers.

F) REGIONAL GEOLOGY

The Matachewan camp which includes the C.V. Group is located in

the southwestern Abitibi Greenstone Belt of the Superior Province, 55 kms

west of Kirkland Lake. The volcanic rocks in the camp have been assigned

to the Larder Lake and Kinojevis groups, which are predominantly pillowed

and massic mafic to ultra mafic flows with some pyroclastic units and minor

interflow sedmiment. The volcanic rocks are unconformable overlain by a

narrow belt of sedimentary and alkali volcanic rocks of the Temiskaming

Group, which is spatially coincident with the Larder Lake-Cadillac Break.

All of the large gold deposits of the Abitibi Greenstone Belt occur within a

few kilometres of the Larder Lake-Cadillac Break or the Porcupine-Destor

Break which is approximately parallel and 40 kms to the north. There have

been several periods of intrusive activity in the area of the Larder Lake-

Cadillac Break. The latest intrusives are felsic bodies of syenite which

include the Cairo, Holmes and Dixon stocks in the Matachewan area.

G) PROPERTY GEOLOGY Figures 3, 4, 4A, 5, 6

D. U. Kresz, 1993, OGS Open File #5874, states that the Archean

rocks of Baden Township are metamorphosed volcanic rocks which are

divided into two chemically distinctive groups: a mafic tholeiitic unit and an

intermediate calc-alkalic sequence. They face north and the line separating

the two groups is an east-west line crossing the centre of the property.

Sedimentary horizons 3-30 feet wide of fine-grained wacke, mudstone and

chert occur, conformably within the mafic flows, near the top of the cycle

and are occasionally sheared and carbonatized.

In order to highlight the areas of possible economic potential of the

claim group, the writer has produced a simplified version of the property

geology on Figure 7A.

Intrusive rocks of an early age are very limited in number and size. A

linear dike-like body of diorite to quartz-diorite, with a northeasterly strike

occurs in the northeast corner of the claim group. Kresz indicated an

occurrence of gabbro on the west shore of the Montreal River. A north-south

swarm of Matachewan diabase dikes cross the property.

Early fault and shear zones with an east-west strike cross the property

and according to Kresz these are related to the Larder Lake Break. The locus

for these structures would appear to be in some cases the interflow

sedimentary bands.

The NW/SE Montreal River fault and the North/South faults are,

according to Kresz, late faults.

H) HISTORY

In 1934, visible gold was discovered on present claim L1222690. By

the next year, Woman River Gold Mines had carried out trenching and

drilling of four short holes. The discovery attracted considerable interest and

the following geologists examined the showing:

1. 1934 W.T. Robson, Lakeshore Mines F. Austin, Teck Hughes Mine

2. 1935 G. L. Holbrooke, Sylvanite Gold Mine3. 1938 C.F. Rice, Howey Gold Mines

Robson reported "an irregular quartz vein carrying an exceptionally

large amount of gold." Austin stated that the gold occurred in a northeasterly

striking vein. Holbrooke said that 4 holes were drilled, 3 with negative

results and one returned 1.14 oz over 40 feet. Whether this was core or

sludge was not recorded. Numerous pits and trenches were dug in the region

in an effort to identify other possible gold bearing quartz veins or structures.

In 1973 Melville Mines completed line cutting, mapping and a

magnetometer and vertical EM survey of the property. The site of the

original gold showing was not found. A few short east-west conductors were

defined but no further work was undertaken.

From 1973 to 1996, the Indian Land Caution applied to these claims

and exploration ceased. Kresz reported that he could not locate the site of the

original gold showing.

In 1998 Cunningham and Vallier made five trips to the area of the

Woman River gold find. Pits and trenches are very numerous in an area

estimated to be 1000 feet square. All are collapsed and some are quite deep.

They run north/south and east/west. The source of the gold was not

identified.

I) PROSPECTING TRAVERSES Figure 8

During 1999, five prospecting traverses were made across the claim

group.

Traverse l

The writer and D. Cooper travelled northeasterly from the river across

an outwash plain over two ridges presumably underlain by diabase dikes to

Graveyard Lake, then northwesterly to Baptiste Creek, then south and

westerly along the creek bed to the Montreal River. One outcrop was seen in

the bed of Baptiste Creek, and identified as mafic lapilli tuff.

Traverse 2

From a gravel road (passable to trucks) within the Indian Reserve, the

writer and B. Vallier travelled westerly to Baptiste Creek, then south along

the creek, then returned easterly to the truck. No outcrop was seen. The area

is covered by sand and gravel.

Traverse 3

From the east shore of the Montreal River, the writer and D. Cooper

travelled northeasterly along a badly overgrown and poorly marked old

portage trail in search of pits located in the north central part of the claim

block. Mervin King, an longtime prospector from Matachewan, advised the

writer of the existence of old pits and trenches along the portage and Lovell

(1963, ODM Map 2109) notes copper and sulphide mineralization along the

portage in the same area. Kresz indicates quartz-feldspar porphyry in this

area. Neither the pits, the mineralization nor porphyry were located but

further searching will be carried out in 2000.

Traverse 4

Kresz (1993) reports shearing, carbonate alteration and sediments on

two small islands in Mistinikon Lake immediately west of the CV Claim

Group. Starting on Mistinikon Lake, the write and B. Vallier travelled

easterly to the Montreal River. Locally the west bank of the river is a vertical

cliff over 100 feet high. A wide (± 50 feet) fault can be seen and approached

by boat along the river. No mineralization or alteration are present. The

rocks are massive and uniform, dark grey green in colour. The writer and

Gerhard Meyer, Resident Geologist, who accompanied the writer, conclude

that the rocks are of volcanic origin and possibly are massive fine grained,

ash tuff showing distinct foliation. Similar features were observed by the

writer on flat and limited outcrop on top of the cliff, but otherwise neither

sediments, shearing nor alteration were observed on this traverse.

Traverse 5

From the western boundary of the claim group, the writer and B.

Vallier travelled southeasterly over a prominent ridge (presumable underlain

by diabase) to reach the north edge of a creek flowing, from a small lake,

easterly to the Montreal River. Approximately 1000 feet east of the lake an

old pit was encountered. Limited outcrop and debris from the pit show

massive fine grained dark green rock of mafic origin believed to be ash tuff

exhibiting distinct foliation as observed on Traverse 4 near the river. No

mineralization or alteration were observed. The traverse -easterly along the

north side of the creek - follows low ground to the river and terminates in the

vicinity of a prominent fault which is readily apparent in a cliff face on the

west bank of the Montreal River. Kresz described and photographed this

fault in OGS Open File #5874. It contains a prominent shear, abundant

massive white quartz, and has been sampled by Kresz and many earlier

prospectors (MNDM Assessment files, Kirkland Lake) with negative results.

The return traverse from the Montreal River to Mistinikon Lake did not

encounter outcrop.

J FIELD MAPPING, Figure 9

During 1999, the writer mapped an area measuring 1000 feet x 1000

feet and centered over the mechanically stripped Woman River showing. An

east-west base line and cross lines at 200 feet spacing were established.

Outcrop is not plentiful and the geology is described in detail under

Geology of the stripped area.

This mapping did reveal the following:

1. A 50-foot wide north-south diabase dike occurs approximately

100 feet west of the stripped area;

2. 600 feet west of the Woman River showing and on strike with

an east-west fault (the Woman River Fault) which apparently localized

the gold occurrence, an old trench on the edge of the swamp reveals

the south contact of an northwesterly striking quartz-feldspar prophyry

dike with an exposed width of 3 feet but an unknown true width.

There is no exposed faulting but the writer is of the opinion that the

intrusion is close to the Woman River fault. Old trenches are plentiful

in the area between the diabase and the porphyry dike suggesting that

the Woman River personnel suspected a connection existed between

the gold occurrence and the porphyry dike. Two samples - one of

silicified rock on the exposed south contact of the porphyry and one

from a 2"-6" quartz vein with + \ 07o pyrite, located approximately 100

feet east of the porphyry - returned 87 ppb and 14 ppb gold

respectively.

3. A few scattered rusty patches (pyrite) 2"-4" in diameter were noted on

line l O to the southeast of the showing.

4. Two long, deep trenches, now collapsed to the southwest of and on

strike with the Woman River vein, suggest that the early workers were

seeking an extension to the Woman River Vein. This emphasizes the

writer's belief that the pocket of native gold was found in the NE-SW

striking Woman River vein and was localized at the Woman River

fault.

5. Four, steeply dipping, mafic dikes occur in the stripped area. They

strike north-easterly, average 2-4 feet in width and the maximum

observed length was 25 feet. They are finely and uniformed grained,

dark geen in colour, without chilled edges and have not altered the

intruded rocks. These dikes have a fresh, unaltered appearance. They

are obviously later in age that the alteration event which effected the

flows within the stripped area. They are not diabase dikes. Kresz

states that mafic intrusive rocks, related to the mafic flow rocks,

are scarce in Baden and Argyle Townships (the mapped areas) and are

possibly represented by andesite dikes.

K. DESCRIPTION OF STRIPPED AREA

Kresz states that the Archean rocks of Baden Township are

metamorphosed volcanic rocks, subdivided into 2 chemically distinct groups:

a mafic tholeiitic unit and an intermediate calc-alkalic sequence. The local

area (including the stripped portion) of the Woman River (WR) occurrence

overlies flows of the mafic tholeiitic sequence. According to Kresz they

consist of massive and pillowed varieties. No pillow features were noted by

the writer. The rocks observed were massive, fine-grained but the presence

of a short + 10 foot lense, 2-12 inch wide of graphite with nodular pyrite is

concluded to be interflow sedimentary material. Approximately 50 feet east

of the graphitic horizon, a short ^ 5 feet) layer of distinct well rounded

quartz eyes (l /4 - 1/2 inch in diameter) striking roughly parallel with the

graphitic horizon was observed and it is believed to represent quartz-filled

amygdules, possibly indicating gas cavities in the upper part of a flow. Kresz

recognized variolites in a cliff face on the west short of the Montreal River -

approximately 1200 feet north of the WR occurrence. He states that

variolites are not "unequivocally recognized" in Baden Township and refers

to an island in Mistinikon Lake (which touches the west boundary of the CV

Claim Group) where outcrops show "millimetre size white rounded spots

which maty have been produced by spherulitic growth". Similar features

10

were observed by the writer in a small local area, less than 5 feet in diameter

located immediately east of the WR shaft.

The rocks are most commonly a uniform grey-pale green colour

within the C. V. claims but the rocks within the stripped area have a distinct

"bleached" appearance - the weather surface is a white-grey colour. On a

freshly broken surface the rock shows a whitish vitreous rind up to l /4 inch

thick and below this a typical grey-green colour. They are in the writer's

opinion hydrothermally altered and most intensely in the shaft area. Kresz

notes that "bleached rocks" are most commonly the result of sericitization

and silicification. This latter feature is readily evident within the stripped

area and results in a cherty appearance in the areas adjacent to veins, faults

and fractures. Free quartz in the form of veins, stringers and pods is plentiful

in the area south of the WR fault but rare within the area north of the fault.

A peculiar feature on outcrop surface, particular in the shaft area, are

raised (elevated) ribs of resistant rock following millimetre wide , 10-50 cm

long, fractures containing silicia, epidote and chlorite. There are numerous

and randomly oriented. Associated with these features are similar elevated

irregular patches of 3-5 cms in size. The result is a rock surface with a

highly irregular corrugated surface, abrasive to the hand.

Sericite, if present, was not recognized nor do the rocks exhibit a

brown, rusty colour typical of carbonate alteration which is a common feature

of the Matachewan and Kirkland Lake mining camps. There is little or no

reaction of the rocks to cold dilutes HCL.

11

Structure

The most important structure in the stripped area is a steeply dipping,

E-W zone of fracturing crossing the central part and called the Woman River

Fault (WRF). It consists of a series of shears, 1-8 inches wide, with

branches, splits and crossovers over a width of 10-12 feet. The wider shears

show l -2 inches of gouge and an occasional narrow l -4 inch lense of

discontinuous quartz and occasionally a small amount of pyrite. They are

oxidized, water stained with a dirty brown discolouration and can be traced

for 350 feet across the stripped area. Bands of fine parallel fracturing 1-5

feet wide are located north and south of the WRF and appear parallel to it.

They are not located immediately adjacent to the WRF but occur at intervals

up to 100 feet from the WRF. They show silicification and occasional pods

of quartz.

Kresz considered E-W faulting to be regional, first order structures,

possibly related to the Cadillac-Larder Lake shear system. Late, second order

faults would include the NW-SE Montreal River fault which bisects the CV

property, and the north/south Narrows Lake and Mistinikon Lake faults

which are in the immediate area.

Within the stripped area and largely located south of the WR fault,

there is a great variety of minor faulting consisting of

a. N.E. and N.W. narrow, discontinuous vertical shears;b. Low angle jointing (300-45 0) striking NE and NW;c. Swarms of micro fractures, a millimetre or two in width and

5-10 cms long with random orientation, suggesting micro-brecciation.

12

Prominent steeply dipping, white, barren, quartz veins, striking north,

northeast and northwest, varying from 1-12 inches in width and dying out

within 150 feet of the WRF are believed to occupy tension fractures.

It would appear that the immediate area (mainly south of the WRF)

had been subjected to uplift possibly by a small igneous intrusion (one of

which does occur 500 feet to the west) creating

1. tension fractures now occupied by quartz veins;2. random oriented faults and joints;3. microbrecciation.

Mineralization

Massive coarse pyrite is the most striking mineralization present. It

occurs in spectacular quantities over a limited area between the north end of

the shaft and the WRF. Lesser amounts were noted in and near the WRF on

lines 5+50E and 8+50E. This is a style of pyrite mineralization not

commonly associated with quartz vein gold deposits.

Lesser amounts of massive, fine grained pyrite - mostly in modules -

occurs associated with the graphitic interflow horizon.

Fine grained disseminated pyrite + J-2% was noted (1) in silicified

zones near the Woman River Vein (WRV) in the vicinity of the WRF and

(ii) in a silicified zone near the SE end of the graphitic interflow horizon.

On line 8+50E and approximately 20 feet south of the WRF a pod of

galena 1/2-1 inch wide and 2 inches long was noted in a narrow NW striking

fracture. A sample ran 120 ppb gold.

13

Hematite in botryoidal and crystal form is developed in thin coatings

on flat outcrop in several locations north of the WRF.

Nineteen (19) samples were assayed for gold by Swastika

Laboratories, Swastika, Ontario. Sampling by hammer and moil by the

writer was concentrated on the pyritic and silicified portions of the WRF, the

WRV, coarse pyrite near the shaft and a silicified and pyritic area at the SE

end of the graphitic interflow horizon. Only 6 samples exceed 100 ppb and

returned 120, 111, 144, 158, 326 and 329 ppb respectively. These 6 sample

sites were associated with silicification in and near the WRF. The two

highest values, 326 and 329 ppb, were obtained from the junction of the

WRV and the WRF.

There is no evidence existing today in records or on the ground to

identify the actual site of the spectacular gold occurrence which caused the

excitement in 1934, but it is the writer's opinion based on (i) these few

elevated gold values; and (ii) the geological and physical evidence,

that the splash of free gold was probably located at or near the junction of the

WRF and the WRV.

14

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

The Woman River showing is geologically interesting but the writer

agrees with the early investigations (Austin and Robson, 1934: Holbrooke,

1936; Rice, 1938) that the occurrence offers little economic potential and

further work in not recommended.

It is recommended that the old trenches in the north central part of the

claim group, where chalcopyrite and quartz-feldspar porphyry have been

reported, be located and evaluated.
