REGIONAL AND PROPERTY GEOLOGY

General Geology (From Ram Petroleum Assessment Files) and from Liba Pauk, pp.50., Geology of the Ardoch Area Frontenac County, 1987, OGS report 241, Mines and Mineral Division., MNDM.

"In general, the claim property is underlain by clastic metasediments comprised of biotite plagioclase-quartz gneiss to schist, hornblende-biotite-plagioclase gneiss, quartzite and layers of impure marble, talc and tremolite." (Pauk)

"The property is located in the Grenville province of the Canadian Shield. The general area is in the part of the province showing an intermediate grade of metamorphism. According to Lumbers (1964) in this zone of metamorphism tremolite is normally more abundant than talc, as an alteration product." (Pauk)

"All the drilling to date indicates that the main tremolitic zone has a northerly dip of approximately 75 degrees. At its largest thickness the zone attains a true thickness of over 250 feet. Structurally this increased thickness is near the nose of the syncline which may have been a favouable zone for permeation of altering hydrothermal solutions. Another possibility could have been a certain amount of thickening of the flank of the syncline by plastic flow as there is ample evidence in the tremolitic zone of flow structure." (Ram Petroleums Ltd.- Assessment Files)

"The talc-tremolite zone on Lot 6, Concession 6 averages 15-18 metres wide and can be traced up to 300 metres long. The deposit appears to strike east-west. The dip of the talc-tremolite schist is nearly vertical." (Pauk)

Based on information accessed from old Ram Petroleum literature, (Summery of the Application, Author unknown);

"Estimated reserves in ore, to a depth of 250 feet are: 333,000 tonnes of talc schist; 931,000 tonnes of "clean" tremolite talc shist and 1,598,000 tonnes of crude tremolite talc schist."

DAILY LOG

Day #1

Day one consisted of traversing the property to become familiar with the boundaries of the talc-tremolite deposit in association with the host rocks.

Traversing approximately 5m north of the existing quarry in a easterly direction. Samples T-1 and T-2 taken on traverse and T-3 taken from north wall of quarry.

Sample taken from the 3m talc zone (T-4). Traced talc zone in a westerly direction to western entrance to quarry. Prospecting in southern direction using shovel to look for contact with hornblende. Sample (T-5) taken from outcrop approximately 30 metres south of quarry entrance.

LUNCH - Overlooking quarry face

Composite sample taken from existing quarry face (T-6).

Northern traverse from quarry edge using hammer to search for outcrops for sampling. First outcrop approximately 15 metres north of quarry (Sample T-7) and second outcrop approximately 50 metres north of quarry (Sample T-8).

DAY #2

Traverse in southerly direction from southern edge of quarry to determine extent of talc outcrop width and distance to hornblende contact. Sample (T -9) taken from outcrop south of the quarry on an east-west trail. Traverse in easterly direction on trail to outcrop of hornblende on south side of swamp (Sample T -10). Continue around swamp in northeast direction to outcrop of fine-grained, red granitic gneiss (T-11, not analysed). This granitic rock covers an area behind the swamp and grades into (actinolite/tremolite?) skarn to north of swamp.

Mapping of the existing quarry was conducted by measuring tape in metres.

ASSAYS

The ten samples were sent to SGS Minerals Services at Lakefield, Ontario for Whole Rock XRF. Certificates are attached on the next page.

PROPERTY GEOLOGY

The overburden in the area (largely sand loam) is relatively shallow, about 30 cm and less. Outcropping is not extensive. The area is largely treed. There is a long and narrow lake approximately 150m to the southeast of the quarry and another approximately 150m to the west. A stream (dry at the time of this work) joins the two lakes following the western and southern borders of the claim. A swamp area is approximately 30m to the SSE of the existing quarry. Outcropping show the deposit is situated to the north of the swamp area.

From: Geology of the Dalhousie Lake Area, Liba Pauk, pp50.

"The ore zone is described as containing 3 major rock types (Assessment Files Research Office, Ontario Geological Survey, Toronto),

1. Actinolite skarn and schist: The actinolite skarn may contain some diopside and is medium green in colour, generally coarse-grained, especially at the contact with the pegmatite. Actinolite schist is a fine-grained schist of darker matrix containing larger, lighter bladed metacrysts probably of tremolite. The mineral chemistry and the coarse-grained texture are attributed to the contact metamorphic affect of the larger bodies of pegmatite.

2. Tremolite-Talc Schist: The tremolite-talc high-grade schist contains long-bladed, semi-aligned colourless to off-white to pale green tremolite .... One to ten percent of bronze coloured phlogopite commonly concentrated in the planes of schistosity are present. .. The quality of the tremolitic schist decreases with the progressive darkening of the schist due to the increasing amounts of actinolite in the rock.

3. Talc Schist: The talc schist is confined to several bands from 6 inches to several feet wide within the core of the main tremolite zone. It was suggested by the company geologist that the deposit probably originated from the combined alteration of dolomitic rocks by regional metamorphism and hydrothermal solutions."

DISCUSSION OF THE RESULTS OF ANALYSIS DESCRIPTION OF ROCK TYPES BEING TESTED

The rock types that were tested include talc,. tremolite and mica combinations from an existing pit as well as from an area in the immediate surrounding area. Outcroppings of actinolite/diopside and hornblende were also analysed.

SAMPLING PROCEDURE

Samples of approximately 10 kilograms each were removed using hammers and collecting in plasti~ sample bags. Effort was made to obtain samples of sub-surface, un­weathered rock.

SAMPLE ANALYSES

Tremolite/Actinolite - Calcium Magnesium Silicate

"When free of iron is light in colour, or white, and is called tremolite. Two or more % of iron replacing the magnesium makes it green and changes the name to actinolite. CaO, MgO and FeO total about 42% and the Si02 about 57%." Frederick H. Pough, A Field Guide to Rocks and Minerals., Third Edition, Broughton Mifflin Company, Boston, Fourth Printing, 1960.

The following are theoretical values for various minerals identified in this report. This was used by the author review the results of the XRF analyses to help identify various rock types.

T-1 and T-7

These samples were taken on a traverse to the north of the existing quarry. The can be distinguished from the quarry sample (T -6) by increased quantities of aluminum oxide, calcium oxide and iron oxide and lower quantities of magnesium oxide. The physical sample contains mica (phlogopite).

T-2

This sample was taken from an outcropping approximately 90m northeast of the quarry. It is similar to T -1 rr -7 except the phlogopite content is somewhat less.

QUARRY AREA SAMPLES (T-3, T-4, AND T-6)

The quarry area includes 'an 12 metre band of mineraization including visible tremolite, quartz, phlogopite and talcose rocks. The quarry contains two distinctive zones, a 8-9 metre zone containing the tremolite (partly altered to talc), quartz and mica and a 3 metre zone of talcose rock.

SAMPLE T-3 is from the north wall of the quarry. The sample has noticeable quantities of what appears to be phlogopite mica. This can be seen from the higher levels of A1203, MgO and K20. The balance of the chemistry would seem to be tremolite/actinolite. The sample contains green to green-black particles.

SAMPLE T-4 was taken from the 3 metre quarry zone of talcose rock. Pure talc would contain 31.7% MgO, 63.5% Si02 and 4.8% C02. The sample would appear to contain 55-60% talc and the balance is mostly tremolite.

Sample T-6 is a composite from the 8-9 metres wide face of the existing quarry. The sample contains major tremolite and talc and minor phlogopite mica.

RAM is a copy of an old analyses of milled tremolite. obtained from files reviewed from Ram Petroleums.

SAMPLE T-8

This sample was removed from an outcropping approximately 50m north of the quarry. The chemistry is very close to diopside, although previous assessment work has it mapped at actinolite skarn. No mica was observed in the sample. This is evident from the low percentages of A1203, Na20 and K20. The sample is medium to dark green to gray in colour.

SAMPLE T-9

Sample T-9 is from immediately south of the quarry on a trail running in an easterly direction. The sample would seem to contain some actinolite or diopside/actinolite based on the higher percentage of CaO.

HORN EBLEN DE SAMPLES (T5 and T-10)

Horneblende- Like tremolite and actinolite, a mineral of metamorphis and igneous rocks, often replacing pyroxene. Green (edenite), bluish-green (paragasite) to black. Luster is glassy. An aluminous amphibole - calcium, sodium, magnesium, iron, aluminum silicates with appoximately 15% AI203 and 40% Si02.

to be feldspars and biotite mica and also a high titanium mineral (possibly sphene - often developed in metamorphic rocks in marbles, schists and gneisses). There is also high iron oxide.

SAMPLE T -11 (Not Analyzed)

This sample is mapped (OGS Map 2512, Dalhousie Lake Area), as fine-grained granitic gneisses.

The sample is a fine-grained pink granitic rock. The area directly east of the swamp is extensively covered by this type of rock.

POSSIBLE MARKETS OR USES

Potential markets are primarily for the talc and tremolitic grades.

Talc is used as an industrial filler in paint, paper (pitch control), plastics, rubber, roofing products, etc. It can also be used in cosmetic applications including baby powder.

Tremolite has been used as a component of heavy duty brake pad manufacturing for heat and friction resistance. It was also reported to be used as a method of controlling fatigue, permanent deformation and shrinkage fracture response of asphalt pavement. Tremolitic talc is also mined in New York State by R.T. Vanderbilt Company and marketed for using in the manufacture of ceramic tile and paint.

There may be some opportunities for use of the horneblende and/or the actinolite/diopside in metallurgical applications.
