Report on the

Geophysical Surveys

St .Anthony Peninsula Group

for

Pominex Limited

SUMMARY

Geophysical surveys were carried out over

a group of 10 claims. Magnetic anomalies and V.L.F.

EM conductors were described and they conform with

the geologic units.

It is recommended that V.L.F.-EM con

ductors be mapped and prospected. Diamond drilling

could follow.

Report on the

Geophysical Surveys

St. Anthony Peninsula Group

for

Pominex Limited

INTRODUCTION

Geophysical surveys were carried out over

a group of 10 unpatented mining claims located 3

miles south of the former producer, St.Anthony

Gold Mines, located on the peninsula dividing the

Northeast Arm from the main body of Sturgeon Lake.

The work was carried out to assist in the exploration

for gold.

PROPERTY. LOCATION AND ACCESS

The claims are as follows:

Pa 668370 - 75 inclusive (6 claims)668378 and -79 (2 claims)668419 and 668420 {2 claims)

These are shown on the Squaw Lake Area

Claim Sheet. They cover an area of approximately

400 acres.

Access to the group is by bush plane from

Ignace, Ontario, on Highway 17, 65 miles to the

Page 4: RECEIVED APR i - Ontario · 52je2se2103 52j02se0066 squaw lake 010 report on the geophysical surveys st.anthony peninsula group for pominex limited march 30, 1984 received

southwest, or by boat from the crossing at Sturgeon

River by Highway 599, 7 miles to the west.

HISTORY

The area has been the focus of gold ex

ploration on several occasions since the St .Anthony

Mine was discovered at the turn of the century.

More recently the basemetal discovery of Mattabi Mines

in 1969 lead to extensive exploration over the entire

Sturgeon Lake greenstone belt. This latter event

was not directed to gold.

Selco Exploration held a large area over the

St .Anthony Peninsula enclosing the present claim group.

Ground geophysics, including magnetic and electromagnetic

surveys, were carried out in search for basemetals.

One magnetic feature and one electromagnetic conductor

were located on the boundary between claims 668371*

and -75. One hole located pyrite and pyrrhotite with

minor chalcopyrite.

GEOLOGY

The claim group is made up of northeast

striking Keewatin volcanics intruded by granodiorite

Page 5: RECEIVED APR i - Ontario · 52je2se2103 52j02se0066 squaw lake 010 report on the geophysical surveys st.anthony peninsula group for pominex limited march 30, 1984 received

pluton, dykes and sills.

Gold is known to occur where the volcanics

are in contact with the granodiorite to the north at

the St. Anthony Mine and to the northwest at

Coveney deposit.

GEOPHYSICAL SURVEYS

A Geonics EM-16 unit was used for the

survey reading a transmitter NLK, Seattle, Washington

at 21*.8 KHz. Readings were taken of the in-phase

and quadrature components. A Frazer filter has been

applied to the in-phase data and the resulting values

are shown as contours while the in-phase and quadra

ture values have been plotted as profiles.

The vertical component of the magnetic field

has been read with a Sharpe MF-1 fluxgate magneto

meter. The measurements were recorded to the nearest

10 gammas and corrected for diurnal drift with a series

of closed loops.

DISCUSSION OF RESULTS

The magnetic map contours to the known

geology with a strike NNE. There appears to be no

broad areas of granite intrusion. The magnetic relief

Page 6: RECEIVED APR i - Ontario · 52je2se2103 52j02se0066 squaw lake 010 report on the geophysical surveys st.anthony peninsula group for pominex limited march 30, 1984 received

in this volcanic terrains is about 2500 gammas. None

of the anomalies have been labelled because they are

what would normally be expected.

The V.L.F. zones have been labelled for

convenience .

Zone A. This strong zone flanks the lake.

Zone B extends across the property and is

made up of four sections.

Zones C and D and E. These three zones

branch to the southwest at line 8S.

Zone F is defined on line 32S and may extend

across the group with a break between lines 28S to 16S.

All the zones conform to "the geologic strike

and the magnetic contours.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

The magnetic features and V.L.F.-EM zones

all conform to the geology. This is encouragement to

examine these anomalies on the ground and prospect for

gold. Some of the V.L.F.-EM zones may be conductive

shears and should be explored for golo..

It is recommended that mapping and pro

specting should be carried out along ths V.L.F.-EM

zones.
