LOCATION AND ACCESS

A contiguous 216 claim block staked by Newmont Exploration

is located in the northern Abitibi greenstone belt approximately

200 km northeast of Timmins, Ontario in the West of Sunday Lake-

Hopper Lake area. The property is situated north and north

east of Hopper Lake and lies in the northwest corner of

Map 2453 (Johns, 1982).

The area is accessible in winter by ski equipped, fixed

wing aircraft or by winter road which passes through the

southwest corner of the property. Summer access is limited to

helicopter and float equipped aircraft on the larger, deeper

lakes. Much of the area is string bog and open marsh which

are not easily traversed in the summer. A new all-weather

gravel road to Detour Mine is presently being constructed and '

will be completed in the near future.

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

A contiguous 216 claim block, herein referred to as Whopper

property (Figure 1), was staked between June 6, 1981 and

January 28, 1982 for Newmont Exploration. A list of the claims

submitted for assessment credit are provided in Table I.

Ground cover on the northeast third of the property

(Map G-l) consists of 15% string bog, 2(^ open marsh, 2(^

scattered spruce and 45% thick spruce forest. A large area of

open swamp and string bog runs north-south 2,000 feet west of

Hopper Creek and separates the northeast third of the property

from that to the southwest. Heavy spruce forest generally

increases in density to the southwest (from Map G-2 to Map

G-3)and forms 80% of the ground cover along north-south

trending ridges and flats in the southwestern third of the

property (Map G-3). The open swamps are typically fringed by

scattered spruce trees which grade outward into heavy spruce

forest.

Vegetation covers Pleistocene to Recent alluvium which

generally consists of sand, gravel and minor till. Thick

layers of peat have begun to accumulate in the large open

marshes and string bogs. The thickest overburden encountered

in drilling was 120'. There is only about 23, outcrop on the

property and local relief does not exceed 30 feet. Geological

investigations in the form of helicopter reconnaissance surveys

and diamond drilling were necessary to obtain additional

information because of such poor exposure.

PREVIOUS WORK

The Whopper project area is reasonably remote and was

only mapped on reconnaissance scale in 1967 by G. Bennett50^000 -.^' *#-'

et. al. This survey was followed by 1:15,840 scale mapping

under supervision of G.W. Johns in 1978. The Whopper area is

indicated as having almost no outcrop on Johns' map and there

is certainly less than 3% rock exposure in the field. A table

of lithologic units has therefore been constructed based upon

general geology throughout the broader area (Johns, 1982) but

has been modified based upon drilling results in the Whopper -

area (Table II).

Previous diamond drill programmes combined with the present

drilling have allowed geological interpretation over most of

the Whopper area. In 1971, three diamond drill holes were :

filed by INCO for assessment and were spotted on the basis of

previously defined coincident magnetic anomalies and EM

conductors. Hole 43297 intersected amphibolite metavolcanics

and metasediments. The conductor was 5.3 feet of graphitic,

sulfidic mudrock from 257.5 to 262.8 feet. Hole 43296

intersected amphibolite metavolcanics with sulfide rich flow

tops from 180 to 190 feet and from 219.8 to 236.9 feet. Hole

43295 intersected more amphibolite metavolcanics with a distinct

sulfide concentration PO-70%) from 231.0 to 238.6 feet. All^

drilling was conducted in the west of Sunday Lake Area and is

located on Map G-l.

In 1976, Patino Mines drilled three holes in the property

after conducting a ground EM Survey. Hole No. l intersected

both metavolcanic and metasedimentary layers. A graphitic

sulfidic (24-3(^) mudrock from 200 to 201.5 feet was apparently

the conductor being drilled for. Hole No. 2 intersected three

anphibolite basalt flows and a thin metasediment layer from

125.5 to 166 feet. The conductor was a 3.5' width of 20%

pyrrhotite near the top of a flow 240 feet down the hole. None

of these sulfide rich zones returned good assays in Cu, Ag,

Au and Zn.

PRESENT STUDY

In early September, 1981, Newmont Exploration conducted

a three day helicopter geological reconnaissance survey in the

area and collected rock samples from more than a dozen sites.

Five typical lithologies were selected for thin sectioning

and petrographic descriptions of these are presented in

Appendix I. Newmont Exploration staked 216 claims between

June 6, 1981 and January 28, 1982. An airborne magnetometer

and EM survey was flown over 210 line miles of ground on

August 18, 1981 by Renting Earth Sciences Ltd., Ottawa. Line-

cutting (170.76 miles) commenced by Ingamar Explorations,

Connaught on September 12, 1981 and was completed December

17, 1981. Lines were both summer and winter cut, base lines

contained 25 metre pickets, cross lines were spaced 100 metres

apart with pickets on cross lines at 25 metre intervals. The

extension grid between the northeast area (Map G-l) and the

area to the southwest (Maps G-2, G-3) was the only exception

where cross lines were spaced at 200 metre intervals instead

of 100 metre intervals. Tie lines were cut parallel to each

baseline and run along the boundaries of the property. Ground

geophysical surveys were conducted by Rayan Exploration,

North Bay, using MP-2 magnetometer and MAX MIN II and were

conducted soon after and in conjuction with the linecutting.

Ground geophysical surveys terminated December 21, 1981.

These surveys were augmented by geological examination

- 10 -

of all available outcrops on the property using airphotos to

locate outcrops and cut lines for ground control. In addition/

a ten hole diamond drill programme was conducted by Norex

Drilling, Timmins and MSW Drilling, Earlton, from February

22, 1982 to March 4, 1982. The 4,049 feet of core obtained

were logged in detail and a large number of sulfide rich

intervals were split and assayed. Detailed cross sections

were then constructed and geochemical data analysed during

the remainder of March, 1982. Twelve representative samples

were selected from drill core and analysed for whole rock

abundances (see Table III) in order to better characterize

lithologies on the property.

Geology of the Whopper Area - Results from Drilling

a) General Geology and the Character of Mineralization

Details of location, depth, inclination and character

of each major conductor are included in Table IV. Supra

crustal rocks drilled include submarine basalt flows,

greywack-arenite-siltstone sequences, minor graphitic

sulfidic mudrock, minor mafic tuff and rare felsic tuffs

which are probably reworked. No felsic volcanic flow rocks

or fragmentals were observed and their absence suggests

that the environment investigated is that of a submarine

basalt shield complex.

the appropriate drill holes (W 82-1 is SECTION l, etc...)

included in a back pocket for reference. Examination of sections

reveals that the two common lithologies in the area are submarine

basalt flows now present as amphibolites and deep marine sediments

represented by biotite-feldspar-quartz schists. These two

major lithologies are interlayered to varying degrees with a

generally observed trend of thicker basalt flows and heavier

pyrrhotite mineralization in the northeast portion of the property.

SECTIONS l, 2, 4 and 12 in particular all contain horizons of

massive pyrrhotite in a milky quartz matrix which are presently

interpreted as inhalative sulfide deposits {i.e. syngenetic

mineralization which occurs within porous rock media after the

rock is deposited and prior to compaction). None of the other

sections have encountered this specific type of massive sulfide

deposit but hole W82-3 contains up to 7(H sulfides in altered

mafic volcanics and most closely approaches this type of

deposit.

The holes to the southwest generally consist of inter

layered sediments and volcanics except for W-82-3 which is

transitional with the set described above and W82-9 which drilled

through basalts into a small pluton with a hornblendite margin.

These remaining holes (W82-5, 6, 7 and 8) contain conductors in

the form of graphitic, sulfidic (S-12%) mudrock with some possible

magnetite component:or highly silicified flow contacts with up

to 9*; sulfide. The graphitic sulfidic mudrock is interpreted as

a synsedimentary biogenic accumulation in felsic volcanic tuff

whereas the sulfidization alpng basalt contacts is interpreted

- 14 -

f

to be late deuteric to early diagenetic metasomatism which occurred

during cooling of the volcanic pile. This metasomatism affects

both the underlying and overlying flow and thus appears to be

related to natural inhalative processes generated by deposition

of volcanic flows. No anomalous gold values were found in these

metasomatized contacts nor should any be expected because this

sulfidization lacks the extraordinary processes required for ore

formation. The graphitic sulfidic mudrock does not contain

anomalous gold values either and the absence is explained by the

fact that these biochemical sediments are non-exhalative. In

short, the conductors in the southeast portion of the property are

caused by natural depositional processes and do not appear to

warrant further exploration. The conductor associated with hole

W82-3 is the exception because it consists of an abnormally thick

sequence of silicified, sulfidized basalt suggesting prolonged

hydrothermal activity and a split containing quartz veining in

this zone ran 208 ppb gold.

Holes W82-1, 2, 4 and 12 to the northeast do not contain

anomalous gold values in spite of an abundance of pyrrhotite

(some pyrite) and the local occurrence of trace chalcopyrite.

The sulfides are massive and penetrate as disseminations into

both underlying and overlying strata. They are preferentially

located within porous host rocks which they variably replace

and unfortunately they are barren of gold and base metals. I

interpret these sulfide concentrations as inhalative sulfide

iron formations (i.e. epigenetic massive sulfides formed by

- 15 -

lateral migration of metal-rich fluids along porous horizons

within the rock rather than at the rock - sea water interface).

Although this inhalative mineralization is barren, the

process is unusual and indicates active mobilization of iron"

sulfur and silica. Gold is not concentrated in the exhalites

but could potentially be redistributed laterally or, underlying

stratigraphic sequences might be more favourable for gold

mineralization. With regard to this last alternative it is

worth while to examine the plan view geology, structure and

stratigraphy to determine whether any stratigraphic sequences

remain to be tested.

b) Stratigraphy and Structure

Younging has been determined from graded bedding in

greywackes and to a greater degree from morphology of basalt

flows. Gradational transitions from a chilled base through

massive to pillowed flow to flow top breccia provide very

reliable younging (Dimiroth et al., 1978). Younging directions,

including those deduced from Patino and Inco holes suggest

that the Supracurstals are isoclinally folded (Map G-4) . In

particular hole W82-8 contains opposing younging directions

which are separated by an axial planar mylonite zone thereby

defining a fold closure (SECTION 8). In the northeast all

strata dip 60-80 south-southeast but holes W82-1 young south

whereas W82-4, W82-12 and all Inco holes young north and are

overturned. The trace of an axial surface therefore lies

- 16 -

between these two sets of holes.

The sequence of interlayered mafic volcanics and

sedimentary rocks to the southwest represented by Patino holes

l to 3 plus holes W82-3, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 outline an extremely

complex structural picture in which bedding dips steeply both

north and south and younging directions change both within holes

and between adjacent holes. Such structural complexity is

typical of sediment-rich supracrustal sequences in Archean

greenstones.

From the limited geological information available from

drilling and outcrops there are a number of potential inter

pretations for stratigraphic superposition but the general

trend from predominantly mafic strata in holes W82-1, 2, 4,

12 and Inco holes suggests that these strata underly the

basalt-sediment sequence outlined to the southwest. The

predominantly mafic strata lie northwest of the Patino holes

and holes W82-6 to W82-9 and contain a high magnetic signature.

Furthermore, the magnetic field rapidly increases near the

northwest boundary of the property and here there are local

conductors along magnetic highs which may represent a separate,

underlying stratigraphic sequence which probably contains

basalts with oxide iron formations and/or ultramafic horizons.

In view of the geology of Detour Lake Mine (see Figure 7 of

Johns, 1982), it would appear necessary to locate a basalt-

ultramafic contact in order to increase chances of finding

gold ore.

- 17 -

c) Correlation of Geology and Geophysics

Detailed examination of the ground magnetometer survey

outlines five separate ranges of magnetic intensity which

appear to generally characterize lithological associations in

the Whopper area. Lithologies inferred from magnetic inten

sities and drilling appear in Map G-4. Intensities of lees

than 59,400 gammas are attributed to greywackes with low

pyrrhotite and low magnetite. Intensities between 59,400 and

59,500 gammas probably represent sedimentary rocks with minor

mafic volcanic flows and/or minor interlayers of sedimentary

pyrrhotite and magnetite. Magnetic intensities between 59,500

and 59,800 are likely to be intermediate to mafic volcanics

with minor disseminated pyrrhotite and/or magnetite. Intensities

between 59,600 and 60,000 gammas have been the main drill

targets where they have corresponding short, intense conductors.

These zones are generally narrow and are surrounded by rocks

with lower magnetic intensities. These conductors are graphitic

sulfidic mudrock, interflow diagenetic pyrrhotite or sulfide

inhalite deposits. The background magnetic intensity increases

towards the northwest edge of the property and passes into a

broad high mag terrane (above 59,600 gammas) at both the

southwest and northeast ends of the northwest edge of the

property. Within this high mag terrane there are linear/

zones with magnetic intensities greater than 59,800 gammas.

It is this terrane which is interpreted to be underlying strata.

- 18 -

Part of it is undoubtedly gneissic particularly further to the

northwest but the narrower more magnetic area could represent

basalts with oxide iron formation and/or ultramafic rocks.

d) Geochemistry of Sulfide-rich Strata

Sludges, sulfide-rich samples and milky quartz concentra

tions were analysed for Au, Ag, Ni, and Cu in an attempt to

delineate any anomalous gold. Although abundant pyrrhotite-

quartz mineralization was found in several holes, anomalous

gold was found only in W82-3 from 63.93 to 65.52 metres

(208 ppb) and in selected milky quartz veins in W82-7 from

7.77 to 8.22 metres (137 ppb). The Detour Lake Mine contains

anomalous copper and copper was analysed as a tracer at Whopper

to detect any gold-copper association which might be present.

A plot of gold (ppb) versus copper (ppm) is presented in

Figure 2 and suggests that there is no :gold-copper association

in the sulfide-rich mineralization. The only exceptions are

in some samples from hole W82-2 and more obviously from

hole W82-8 (circled in Figure 2). Sample distribution instead

suggests an antipathetic relationship of high gold-low copper

and visa versa. A plot of nickel (ppm) versus copper (ppm)

is presented in Figure 3 for those holes containing concentra

ted inhalative sulfides. This plot demonstrates an excellent

correlation between copper and nickel in the sulfides and

argues for simultaneous inhalative leaching of both copper

and nickel from the basalts. The process of pure dilution

- 21 "

through high volume replacement would thereby account for the

low abundances of gold in these inhalites. In general, those

samples with higher sulfide content are also those which

contain higher copper and nickel contents but no such associa"-

tion is observed with gold. This observation further supports

an inhalative leaching process. It is obvious, therefore, that

gold is not directly associated with copper or with sulfides

in the inhalite horizons where they have presently been drilled.

Twelve samples of "fresh" rock were selected from core

drilled this past field season and were submitted to X-Ray

Laboratories for trace Au, Ni, Cu, Zn, As and for whole rock

analysis. Background gold values are all c 3 ppb whereas

sulfide rich samples average out to approximately 15 ppb. It

is questionable whether this difference is significant and

represents an enrichement in the latter lithology.

e) Dimensions of Inhalative Sulfide Mineralization

A review of the average % sulfide and aggregate widths

from diamond drilling and lengths of conductors as projected

from geophysical surveys provides the following information

which is summarized in Table V.

Inhalative sulfide mineralization collects in two

separate environments, flow top breccias in basalts and porous

arenaceous sections of turbidite metasediments. Sulfide

mineralization in basalts is predominantly pyrrhotite forming

aggregate widths of up to 137 feet of 13% sulfide. Within

this aggregate thickness, there are local massive sulfide layers,

These volcanic hosted, inhalative sulfide iron formations are

laterally continuous for up to 11,000 feet but massive sulfide

zones are less continuous whereas disseminated sulfides are "

for more widespread. Inhalite horizons are characterized by

long zones of relatively strong conductivity coincident with

long linear magnetic highs.

The second type of inhalite is hosted in arenite but there

are also occurrences of syngenetic sulfides in graphitic

mudrock which have been encountered in drilling. Sulfides in

the former host generally consist of pyrite and pyrrhotite

scattered throughout the sediment with local thin layers of

20-25% sulfides. Pyrite is the predominant sulfide in the

graphitic mudrocks. The lengths of sulfide rich zones hosted

in metasediments is shorter than those in basalts but this

may be due in part to tectonism because younging indicators

in the sedimentary-rich strata indicate complex isoclinal

folding.

The average basalt-hosted inhalite is predominantly

composed of pyrrhotite with minor pyrite and trace chalcopyrite.

It contains 8% sulfide over a 70' aggregate width and a 5,200'

projected length. In contrast, the average sediment-hosted

inhalite is composed of pyrrhotite and/or pyrite with rare

chalcopyrite and averages 4-5% sulfide over a 5' aggregate

width and a 2,600' projected length.

- 24 -

f) Interpretation of Whole Rock Geochemistry

The samples analysed from Whopper property for background

trace elements and whole rock geochemistry are compared with

samples collected from Detour Lake Mine on a Jensen Cation

plot.(Figure 4). In general, the Detour rocks consist of an

extrusive trimodal association (i.e. ultramafic, basaltic

and rhyolitic or dacitic rocks all in close proximity). The

Detour basalts show a distinct calc alkaline trend on AFM

plot as well as on Jensen Cation plot (Figure 4). Whole

rock geochemistry of basalts at Detour indicate carbonate and

silica alteration and petrographic examination of Detour ore

suggests that gold, pyrite, chalcopyrite and silica have

preferentially replaced the rhyolitic felsic tuffs.

The whopper area contains ultramafic rock but where

drilled, it occurs as intrusive hornblendite. The most felsic

rock identified to date on the property is metasediment, the

composition of which appears to be a result of mixing of mafic

and felsic debris (see Table III, Figure 4). No felsic

volcanic rocks have been identified to date. The basalts of

Whopper are, however, calc alkaline like those at Detour and

this similarity reinforces our regional geophysical interpre

tation that both areas are stratigraphically equivalent, and

that Whopper property has good potential for Detour-type gold

mineralization.

SUMMARY AND INTERPRETATION

Whopper area is a submarine basalt shield complex con

taining a lower stratigraphic sequence with high magnetic

response which is tentatively interpreted to be flood basalts

containing oxide iron formation and/or serpentinized ultra

mafic rocks. This lower sequence is overlain by a thick

sequence of basaltic flows with minor interflow sediments

and contains inhalative sulfide mineralization which is corn-

commonly localized at flow contacts as intersected in holes

W82-1, 2, 4 and 12. The inhalative deposits in these basalts

were likely derived by simultaneous leaching of Cu and Ni from

the flows with massive addition of Fe and sulfur from infil

trating hydrothermal fluids. Resulting deposits are pyrr

hotite and form long relatively wide conductors with corres

ponding linear magnetic highs. Less intense inhalative

sulfides in basalts are likely caused by late deuteric or

diagenetic metasomatism and may be a result of natural subma

rine weathering. A more diverse volcanic-sedimentary sequence

overlies the basalt flows and contains inhalative sulfide

mineralization (pyrite-pyrrhotite) in both basalts and arenaceous

metasediments as well as synsedimentary graphitic pyritic

mudrocks. Conductors in these strata are narrower, contain

less pyrrhotite and have shorter strike lengths but this

latter feature may be a result of tectonic dislocation.

- 27 -

RECOMMENDATIONS

Mineralization at Detour Lake Mine is concentrated within

a relatively narrow zone (maximum 670 feet) of strata with a

trimodal rock association which immediately underlies a thick

sequence of calc alkaline basalt flows. The similarity in

whole rock geochemistry between Detour Mine and Whopper

property is encouraging and there is a distinct possibility

that the highly magnetic terrane at Whopper contains a

trimodal zone. The presence of abnormal quantities of sulfide

mineralization formed by contemporaneous leaching of elements

from basaltic host rock indicate active processes on Whopper

property which, in a gold enriched protore, could produce an

ore deposit. I would therefore maintain that the key processes

necessary for ore formation have been indicated by drilling.

I recommend that a terrane with a trimodal association

be sought on the property and if found be intensively explored.

In this regard, the highly magnetic terrane at the northwest

edge of the property appears to have the best potential. Two

conductors at or near the southern contact of this terrane

remain as yet untested and could be explored by our second

priority holes W82-10 and W82-11 which were not drilled last

season. Long holes should be drilled through the conductors

and at least one more drill hole should be designed to

identify the lithology which solely contains high magnetism.

Drilling should be oriented to provide a complete stratigraphic

- 28 -

cross section of the highly magnetic terrane and thereby

establish the presence or. absence of a trimodal association.

There are several other conductors on the property which

could also be tested, particularly in areas of low magnetic "

background. Here, gold deposits associated with disseminated

sulfides and hosted in felsic volcanic rocks might be found.

I would recommend detailed IP surveys over these conductors

prior to drilling in order to establish priorities. This is

necessary due of our limited geological information and lack

of lithogeochemical data because of widespread overburden.
