Hello Brumell

Looking forward to reading the results of your research. The scale of that map is of course way too small to make any truly relevant observations, but as near as I could tell, PFN's Dana Lake claims and RV discovery were in Anthrosite which strikes me as unusual for for PGE's. Up here I would be looking at contacts and sheers in it for Au.

In part, that is why I was wondering about the other two rock types. If one is an ultramafic intrusion and the other a metasediment or derived gniess, then all of the ITF claims look very interesting.

Again the scale is very small, but the RV discovery also appeared to be on what I assume was the intersection of two dikes and a regional sheer which might account for the PGE's in Anthrosite, that intersection being a good conductor and environment for the pooling and percolation of hydrothermal fluids. If the Misisagi Formation is a massive ultra mafic intrusion within several hundered meters to the west and presumably underneath Dana Lake, that might account for the PGE's pooling in the dike/sheer.

But again, at this scale, who knows?

One other thing, the intsection of the two geological provinces, in asociation with the east/west regional sheers and the east/west Misisagi Formation all running continously along the southern ITF & PFN claims also looks increadibly prospective for mineralization.
