1. INTRODUCTION

In order to further exploration of the Blackwater claims group, an evaluation of theeffectiveness of the seismic reflection method was carried out. The purpose of the evaluationwas to determine if the more-sensitive seismic reflection method would detect the knowngeological boundaries at the site and provide more detailed geological information than thepreviously-completed seismic refraction surveying.

Several models were constructed based on variations of the known geological conditions onsite and specifically the channel-like depression interpreted from the seismic refraction datafor line SL-0+00N. The results of the modeling would be utilized to design reflection surveysin proposed further geophysical investigations of the property.

2. SEISMIC SOFTWARE MODELLING

Several modelling programs were considered with the University of Nebraska-Lincoln,*“Synthetic Seismogram Generation for Modelled Geologic Sections” believed to be themost versatile and effective. The computer program Syngen (Synthetic SeismogramGenerator) develops a synthetic seismogram for a user-defined layered earth model. Theprogram produces a one-dimensional synthetic seismogram for a geological model or a twodimensional synthetic seismogram for more complex stratigraphy. Input into the programconsists of layer thicknesses and configurations and layer compressional wave velocities anddensities. The latter are utilized to compute the reflectivity function or reflectioncoefficient.The product of the input of the properties of two layers at a contact is the acousticinpedance at the interface.

3. GEOPHYSICAL RESULTS

3.1 General

The basic model is the section for line SL-0+00N completed in the July 2009 Investigation ofthe Blackwater property. A simplified version of the section was utilized in the modellingprocess. The section consists of three distinct geological layers to a maximum depth of 80metres. A 4m thick layer at the ground surface has a compressional wave velocity of 350 m/sand a density of 1.54 grams per cubic centimetre. This surficial layer is underlain by a thickintermediate layer with a compressional wave velocity of 1500 m/s and a density of 1.75grams per cubic centimetre. This layer is believed to be totally saturated. The basal layer witha velocity of 3700 m/s and a density of 2.65 grams per cubic centimetre is the bedrocksurface.The bedrock in the site area is believed to be competent metamorphic schist orphyllite. This basic model was held fixed in the subsequent modelling with four additions ofan additional intermediate layer assessed for reflectivity and detection.

3.2 Discussion

The synthetic seismogram for the base model is illustrated in Model A in the appendix. Themodel shows a clear reflector of the surface of the thick saturated layer and a basal reflectorat the interpreted bedrock surface. The bedrock surface is readily detected not only along thebroad relatively flat central portion but also along the steep side slopes and narrow bedrocklow centred at 400 metres. The total two-way travel time is approximately 125 milliseconds.

The first variation on the original model is illustrated in Model B. In this scenario as in allsubsequent models, the parameters of Model A remain fixed. In Model B a secondintermediate layer is added with a compressional wave velocity of 1950 m/s and a density of2.1 grams per cubic centimetre. The layer pinches out to either side of the section and isthickest in the bedrock depression centred at 400 metres. The addition of this layer wasintended to evaluate the detectability of a potentially denser and higher velocity layeroverlying the bedrock surface.

The principal result of model B is the positive detection with the seismic reflection method ofthe surface of the superimposed layer. The reflector at the two-way travel time of 70milliseconds is weak but detectable. The surficial and basal bedrock reflectors are unaffected,with a possible reduction in amplitude of reflections from the bedrock.

2

A second variation on the initial model is illustrated in model C. In this instance, the 1950m/slayer from model B only exists in the bedrock depression centred at 400 metres. Themaximum layer thickness within the depression is 20 metres.

The synthetic seismogram in model C clearly shows the surface of the 1950 m/s layer in thedepression and the underlying bedrock. Similar to model B, the reflector at the surface of the1950m/s layer is relatively weak. The results indicate that the 1950m/s layer although at agreater depth of burial, can still be detected wit the seismic reflection method.

The third variation on the initial geological model is illustrated in model D. In this case, the1950m/s velocity in model C has been replaced with a compressional wave velocity of230m/s. All other parameters including density remain fixed. The objective was to assesswhat if any changes would occur with a moderate increase in velocity of the layer within thebedrock depression.

The result indicates a modest increase in the amplitude of the reflection from the surface ofthe 2300m/s layer. No weakening of the reflector from the underlying bedrock is apparent inthe data.

The final variation on the initial geological model is illustrated in Model E. In this geologicalmodel, the 2300m/s layer is more extensive with the surface of the layer buried at 30 metresand extending almost the full width of the section.

The surface of the 2300m/s layer is readily apparent as the moderately strong reflector at atwo-way travel time of 60 milliseconds. The bedrock surface even with the presence of athick, higher velocity, intermediate layer remains a strong reflector with no apparentreduction in reflector strength.

4. CONCLUSIONS

The modelling of input parameters indicates that the reflection seismic method would beeffective in remote mapping of the known or inferred geological boundaries at theBlackwater project. Basal bedrock, overburden stratigraphy and the gold-bearingconglomerate layer all appear as good reflectors. Careful planning , good execution and highredundancy “fold” surveying should provide very effective geological sections to further theexploration of the historical Tertiary channel on the property.

1. INTRODUCTION

This reports describes the preparation of orthorectified aerial photographs over the Blackwater placer

claims located in the Cariboo Mining Division of central British Columbia. These claims, owned by

Blackwater Explorations Ltd, are currently being explored for their potential to host placer gold and

platinum deposits. The objective of the work was to prepare an orthophoto base map of the study area as

the first stage in an air photo interpretation.

1.1. Location and Access

The Blackwater placer claims (BX claims) are situated about 440 km north of Vancouver and 40 km north-

northwest of Quesnel (Figure 1) within N.T.S. map sheets 93G/2W and 93G/7W and the Cariboo Mining

Division. The claims are centered at approximately 122°53’8.8” W longitude and 53°14’ 43.7” N latitude.

Access to the property is from the Blackwater Road (Quesnel to Vanderhoof) and a number of logging

roads that extend north and northeast from the Blackwater Road onto the claims.

1.2. Claim Status

Figure 2 is a claim plan of the property. The BX placer claim, the original part of which was staked in

2007, covers 1,372.7640 hectares. The claim has a current expiry date of April 9, 2011 and is 100%

owned by Blackwater Explorations Ltd.

1.3. Physiography and Vegetation

The claim lies mostly in the Fraser Basin, along the western side of the Fraser Plateau. The Fraser Basin

is for the most part a flat or gently rolling surface below ~900m. Both it and the Fraser Plateau in this area

were occupied by ice whose movement created drumlins and drumlin-like forms in the extensive glacial

drift. Ice movement was in a northward direction.

The claim covers two watersheds, one draining southeast into the Fraser River and the other draining

northwest to north into the Blackwater River. The southeastern drainage is about 13.72 km long with an

elevation range from 789 to 520m. The northwestern drainage is about 11.26 km long with and elevation

range from 830 to 560m.

Dense brush, beetle-killed pine, spruce and some fir trees cover the claim.

1.4. Previous Work

There is no record of any exploration work on the BX placer claim prior to 2009. A remote sensing study

was completed in 2010 and described in Assessment Report No. 31538 (Campbell, 2010). There is no

record of any assement reports being filed on adjacent placer claims. There are no B.C. Minfile

occurrences on the claim.
