Geology

  • Alteration of sheared rocks includes sericite, chlorite, carbonate, pyrite, chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite
  • Gold is associated with sulphides along a northeast trending shear zone on the adjoining Windfall Property operated Eagle Hill Exploration

History

First significant work on the property was completed by Alto in 1997 and consisted of line cutting, ground magnetometer and IP/Chargeability survey. Prospecting and mapping programs were carried out in 2003 and 2004 and mechanical trenching in 2006.

The property is swampy and outcrop exposures are few, therefore the best exploration tools are ground geophysics followed by diamond drilling. The geophysical surveys completed by Alto have delineated several northeast and northwest trending structures that require drill testing.
