"FLAG has received a report, dated August 7, 2001, from Dr. Eva Schandl, M.Sc, Ph.D (GEO-CONSULT), Geological Consultant and Research Associate (Dept. Geology, University of Toronto), Evaluating Mineral Potential On FLAG's Mackelcan And Rathbun Township Properties.
The following letter, enclosed with the report, is Eva Schandl's comments on the report:
Dear Mr. McLeod:
I am enclosing 3 copies of my Report you requested, evaluating mineralization potential on Flag Resources property, Mackelcan and Rathbun Townships.
The report is based on the information you have provided me with (drill logs from DDH CH92-1 (Mackelcan Twnp.), DDH ML 94-1 (Rathbun Township) and various company reports by Mr. Goad and Dr. Naldrett), as well as information I obtained by literature search and from my own research in the area - particularly relevant are the Scadding and MacLennan Townships.
I am quite certain that the high concentrations of base and precious metals locally observed on Flag Resources' property resulted from the interaction of hydrothermal fluids with mineralized rocks at some depth. While the elusive massive sulfide orebodies and mafic/ultramafic source rocks are presently unknown in the area, careful re-evaluation of existing data - both geological and geophysical - will help to find the "real McCoy". Mapping of sulfide-rich (and fuchsite-rich) veins, their orientation with respect to local and regional shear zones, faults and stratigraphy would provide important information with respect to the path and the ultimate source of mineralizing fluids. I would also like to suggest "spot checks" on geochemistry and mineralogy of rocks during drilling or sample collecting. A representative set of samples should be always analyzed (for major and trace elements), and the mineral assemblages should be identified by petrography (microscope).
Best wishes, sincerely, (signed) Eva S. Schandl Ph.D Geological Consultant
