The 2016 field season resulted in the definition of several highly prospective zones of the deposit (Figure
26). The most recent target discovered is the two-four zone which lies on the southwestern edge of the
pluton (Figure 27). This target is characterized by a high density of auriferous quartz and scorodite veins.
Scorodite veins generally form in the carapace (outer edge of the pluton) are characteristic of IRG
systems. Generally, scorodite veins in the carapace are widely spaced and often on the order of one vein
every 20 – 50 metres. At the two-four zone these scorodite veins showed a high density of one vein
every metre in the outcrop that was examined. It is unclear if more veins or finer veins exist between
54
the observed scorodite veins since the rock was highly oxidized and only partially exposed. Generally,
the grades in the veins ranged from 4 to 41 g/t Au and were 3-5 cm wide. Based on the high density of
these vein sets this is a high-priority target.
The Pink Mountain target is located in the centre of the pluton. This target is identified by sheeted
auriferous quartz veins in an oxidized host. The general area is about 500 by 375 metres and open on
three sides. Gold values in the veins are generally less than seen at the two-four zone with a lot of 1 g/t
Au and grades up to 7 g/t Au. Vein densities were high in places at about five veins per metre, which is
commonly observed in Intrusion Related Gold deposits. This zone needs additional sampling and
mapping prior to drilling.
