REPORT ON THE MINING PROPERTYHeld by

BAR-FIN MINING CORP. LIMITEDIn ^^

THE TOWNSHIP OF QAUDBTTB SAULT STE. MARIE MINING DIVISION

DISTRICT OF ALOOMA. ONTARIO, CANADA

SUMMARY

Bar-Fin Mining C'.-p. Limited has under option 10 mining claims in Gaudette Township, Sault Ste. Marie Mining Division, in which has been found an interesting copper discovery.

The copper sulpnides are found in a quartz vein lying along tho side of a sheared quartz diorite body. Samples of high grade copper ore can be had but the grade of ore from channel sampling shows |l5-00 per ton across a width of ^ to 6 feet.

The property is accessible. There is a gravel road from Searchmont, Ontario, to within a mile of the property. From this point there is a road across the sand plane to the south boundary of the property, this is suitable for motor traffic.

The vein lies on top of a high hill about 500 f*et high and an old tote road winds its way to the top of the hill.

The Supercrest Copper Mines Limited have proven up a commercial ore body about five miles to the north west of the Bar-Fin property. They are in the process of installing plant and equipment to bring their mine into produc tion.

The copper discovery has only been opened up at one point and I have recommended a geophysical survey to outline the vein prior to diamond drilling.

PROPERTY

The property held by Bar-Fin Mining Corp. Limited consists of 10 unsurveyed and unpatented contiguous mining claims located in Gaudette Township, Sault Ste. Marie Mining Division, District of Algoma, Ontario, Canada, and numbered SSM U8513 to SSM U8515 inclusive; and SSM U8088 to SSM U809U inclusive.

The mining claims are approximately UO acres each and make up a single block of UOO acres more or less.

ACCESS fc LOCATION

A good gravel road leaves Highway 17 North, about 13 miles north of the City of Sault Ste. Marie and continues on to Searchmont and other points in the area. Searchmont is 36 miles by road from Sault Ste. Marie.

The property lies about five miles north east of the Town of Search mont which is on the Algoma Central Railway.

There is a motor road to the bottom of the hill on which the copper discovery has been made. An old lumber road winds up the hill to within a short distance of the showing.

GEOLOGY

The claims are underlain with Laurentian granite and in the vicinity of the copper discovery there is a quartz diorite dike. The scath side of the dike appears heavily sheared and along this is a quartz vein mineralized with fine chalcopyrite.

Page 2 Report

VEIN

The copper sulphide vein dips north at 70O and strikes north 55O west It hao been exposed for a length of fifty feet, end UOO feet further west and on strike large pieces of float mineralized with chalcopyrite have been found, The shearing to the south of the vein carries chalcopyrite as seen in the old trench.

Channel samples across five feet of the vein averaged grab samples assayed from .6l# copper to 25 -6# copper.

POWER

copper and

The Great Lakes power lines of 110,000 volts are approximately 11 miles west of the property. The cost of a power line would be about $15,000.00 per mile in this area.

TIMBER

Mine tirolar is available in the area, but little suitable for mining purposes was observed on the property.

WATER

A small lake on the southern edge of the south claims could supply the necessary water requirements for both mining and milling operations.

GENERAL

The Super ere e t Mines formerly known as the Kristina Mines lies five miles north west of the Bar-Fin property. They have proven up a commercial ore body and are now moving in machinery and equipment so that the mine can be brought into production.

OLD WORK

One small trench at the site of the present work is the only indication of former work and this was done in 1952 by the party selling the property U. "~ Bar-Fin Mining Corp. Limited.

Overburden is heavy and the vein was never followed by surface trenching.

NEW WORK

The vein along the exposed fifty foot section has been cross trencheu for purposes of sampling.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

From present work the grade of ore in the section of the vein exposed is $15.00 per ton. The length of the vein is not known.

Prior to diamond drilling an Electro Magnetic Survey should be made of the property, this would give an indication of the length and location of the vein for diamond drilling.

An Electro Magnetic Survey will cost approximately 15-00 per acre or $2,000.00, and I am recommending that funds be provided for this purpose so that the work can commence immediately.

Respectfully submitted

Dated:November 1st, 1956.

Tower Financial Corpor ation Limited above referred to has acquired from the said Fingard and Barnes 708,750 of the said vendor shares and of which 200,000 were donated to Nelle Farrell as set forth in paragraph L (l) (b).

The said 32 unpatented claims are no longer held by the Company having been abandoned.

The road leading east from Highway 17 is suitable only for trucks or wagons except in dry weather. Grading and a few loads of gravel will convert this road into a good all-weather road.

Commencing in the month of March, 1956, the Company entered into contracts for the unwatering of the shaft upon the said properties and for surface and underground diamond drilling under the supervision of Alan C. Lee, Professional Engineer, of Noranda, Quebec. Unfortunately the under ground and surface drilling failed to locate any tonnage of copper ore that could be mined out and shipped to a smelter and yield the Company a profit.

Consequently, the Company has ceased all development of the Thompson Township property, acting upon the opinion of Mr. Lee that further work upon the property is not warranted.

(b) The particulars relating to the 10 mining claims obtained from the said James Reynolds (hereinafter in this paragraph M. (b) referred to as "the property"), are as follows:-
