CME Voisey # 2 read below

The massive sulphides are found adjacent to an olivine-rich


ultramafic layer or dike



which is subparallel to the underlying enderbitic


gneiss.

The ultramafic layer/dike is interpreted to be a massive to gneissic olivine norite



to troctolite.


The enderbitic gneiss is in contact to the west with Tasiuyak paragneiss,


a relationship which is similar to the geological situation at the Voisey's Bay mine site.


Significantly, the massive sulphides and ultramafic layer/dike are found within a 2.5-kilometre-by-3.5-kilometre, three-milligal gravity (density) anomaly, the centre of which is located 1.75 km to the south of the new prospect. Modelling of the gravity anomaly, infers a 300-metre-thick troctolite body, synformal in shape, at about 150 m to 250 m depth of burial.
