SUMMARY
The .Goldhi 11/Golden Gate property consists of fifty one
contiguous claims located approximately 25 kilometres southeast
of Kenora, Ontario. The original 50 claims were optioned from
local prospectors as a direct result of the 1984 northwestern
Ontario gold reconnaissance program. One claim was staked by
Kidd Creek in 1985.
In 1985 work on these claims consisted of grid mapping of
the claim block; surface stripping, trenching, mapping and
sampling around known showings; ground VLF, magnetometer and
limited IP geophysical surveys. In addition, humus samples
taken by previous owners were submitted for analysis.
The 1985 program has identified erratic high grade gold
mineralization confined to quartz veins within narrow shear
zones. Encouraging results from the gold-bearing veins coupled
with weak geophysical anomalies have defined three areas which
are to be diamond drill-tested.
CONCLUSIONS
1) Gold occurs as free grains or with chalcopyrite within
quartz veins which are hosted by narrow shear zones.
2) The free nature of the gold results in an erratic
distribution.
3) Gold contents are not diluted in wider veins.

4) Associated metallic minerals are chalcopyrite, pyrrhotite,
and pyrite. The presence of chalcopyrite may be a good
indicator of potential gold mineralization.
5) The shear zones which host the gold-bearing veins trend
northeast, southeast and east-west.
6) Both the shear zones and the veins are discontinuous along
strike. Exposed veins range from 10 to 33 m long. The
shear zones develop on structural "horizons" which may be
hundreds of metres long but shearing is significant over
shorter distances.
7) The amount of significant shearing along a given horizon
is not known.
8) Regional geology and shear zone fabric indicate vertical
movement has occurred, therefore the veins are expected to
have greater vertical than horizontal extent.
9) No distinct mineralogical or chemical anomalies are
associated with shear zones, regardless of whether or not
the shear zone hosts a gold-bearing quartz vein. There is
a hint that As may have a negative correlation, Ba and W a
positive correlation with gold; in shears which host gold-
bearing veins. Gold appears to be its own pathfinder
element.

111.
10) A test humus sampling program has given background gold
values of 1-2 ppb. Over known mineralized structures the
content increases and is erratic, ranging from 8 to 20
ppb.
11) Results of the ground VLF geophysical survey showed no
correlation to known structures. Results of the ground
magnetometer survey were ambiguous and are presently not
considered useful in pursuing gold mineralization.
12) IP geophysical surveys were conducted over the Blackjack-
Slamdance area, the Goldhill (Pebble vein) structure and
the Golden Gate structures. Subtle anomalies occur in
association with some of the structures or along their
strike extent.
RECOMMENDATIONS
1) It is recommended that the known gold-bearing structures
be diamond drill-tested.
2) Choice of targets is based on 1) presence of economic gold
mineralization on surface, 2) coincidence of IP anomaly
with the known structure, 3) coincidence of IP anomaly
with predicted structure, and 4) potential for gold
mineralization based on historical record of development
in a given structure.
-
IV
3) The structures to be tested are the Golden Gate veins;
Blackjack, Blackjack North shears and Slamdance vein;
Pebble and related? veins at the Goldhill minesite.
4) The drilling must consist of several, short holes
penetrating each structure as often as possible to
determine vein continuity and to improve the chances of
intersecting gold mineralization.
5) Follow-up work will be dictated by the results of drilling
but may incorporate combined humus geochemical surveys and
IP surveys to locate other potential gold-bearing
structures. This work should initially be concentrated
anywhere that gold in shear zones has returned values
greater than 100 ppb.

INTRODUCTION
General Statement
The Goldhill property (Figures 2 and 3) and the adjoining
Golden Gate property (Figures 2 and 4) are hosts to high grade
gold mineralization. These properties were acquired as a
direct result of the 1984 gold reconnaissance program in
Northwestern Ontario.
The 1985 program found that free gold occurs in quartz
veins which are controlled by shear zone development. Minor
amounts of pyrite and pyrrhotite occur in the veins but do not
show a clear relationship to gold mineralization.
Chalcopyrite, which is generally minor reaches concentrations
of up to 7% in some veins and has a weak positive correlation
to gold. The exact controls of gold mineralization have yet to
be defined but it seems likely that shear-zone control, similar
to that in Yellowknife could be a factor. The 1985 study has
shown that there is potential for high grade, low tonnage gold
mineralization at Goldhi11/Golden Gate in 4 different
locations.
This report briefly summarizes the work done to date, the
present understanding of the geologic setting and controls on
gold mineralization and the potential for economic
mineralization.
Location and Access
The Goldhill and Golden Gate properties are located 20 km
southeast of Kenora by air (Figure 1). Access is provided by

a gravel (and clay) logging road, constructed by Boise Cascade
Canada Ltd. The gravel road extends east from Highway 71, 10
km south of Fort Frances turn off (Hwy 17 k 71 junction). The
property is a one hour drive from Kenora.
Claim Status
The Goldhill property includes 36 contiguous, unpatented
claims (Table I, Figure 2). The Golden Gate property comprises
13 contiguous unpatented claims and one patented claim (Table
II, Figure 2). The claim blocks are adjacent and are located
in the Kenora Mining Division. The properties were optioned
from local prospector-owners in September, 1984. They are 1001
owned by Kidd Creek Mines Ltd., subject to a 10* net profits
royalty. One additional claim was staked in 1985 by Kidd Creek
Mines Ltd. and adjoins the south portion of the Goldhill
property, overlapping Magnet Lake.
Previous Work
Work to date on the Goldhill and Golden Gate properties is
summarized in Table Ilia and b respectively. Extensive
historical background is provided in reports by W. D. Bond
(1985) and A. Howard (1984). The Goldhill Mine was in
production when destroyed by fire in 1899.

1985 Kidd Creek Work
The 1985 Kidd Creek Mines Ltd. program was composed of two
overlapping projects. One was property scale exploration of
the Goldhil I/Golden Gate claim block. The other was detailed
exploration in the vicinity of old shafts, pits and trenches.
Property exploration consisted of geological mapping and
sampling carried out by Terry Chong under the author's
supervision, and magnetometer and VLF ground geophysical
surveys, carried out by Bruce Pigeon under the supervision of
the author and Mike Zang. The property mapping was conducted
at 2 scales; 1:1000 in the area of the Black jack-Goldhi 11-
Golden Gate workings and 1:2000 over the remainder. The maps
were compiled and reduced to 1:5000 for this report (Figures 3
and 4). Lithogeochemical sampling concentrated on shear zones
and veins. All shear zones samples were analyzed for "Gold *
20" by Bondar Clegg, Ottawa. Five samples were analyzed for
major elements.
Detailed exploration employed a contracted timberjack
fitted with a backhoe to remove extensive muck piles and
overburden from around existing workings. Fire pumps were used
in unison with the timberjack tp clean the bedrock suitable for
detailed sampling. All sites were mapped at a scale of 1:200.
Jim Clark had the task of keeping the pumps working and getting
the areas cleaned up. Trenching was completed at some of these
sites, and resulted in the discovery of copper-gold

REGIONAL GEOLOGY
The regional geology (Fig. 1) was discussed at some length
by W. D. Bond (1985) who cites several previous authors. In
1984 the OGS mapped an area.which included the Goldhi11/Golden
Gate properties (Ayers et al, 1985) and in 1985. this program
was continued further west. The geology of this region of Lake
of the Woods is also the topic of a University of Toronto MSc.
Thesis (Styx, 1985).
The Goldhill/Golden Gate property is situated within a
thick, monotonous lower sequence of southerly facing mafic
volcanic rocks (Figure 2). Styx (1985) divided the mafic pile
into four cycles based on geochemical variation. The basalts
of Goldhill/Golden Gate belong to Styx's cycle II and III
(Appendix B). Toward the stratigraphic top of this sequence,
just south of the Goldhill property, are a series of
differentiated gabbro sills. These sills contain bands of
concentrated magnetite and show up on the airborne magnetometer
survey as narrow curvilinear anomalies (Appendix D). South of
these is a pile of intermediate to felsic pyroclastic and
volcaniclastic rocks.
The mafic volcanic^ and_J:he^pyroclastic sequences are cut
off in the east by the Dryberry Batholith. The contact between
the volcanic rocks and this multi-phased granitoid body trends
north-northwest through the central half of the Golden Gate
property.
The basalts and mafic sills south of Goldhill/Golden Gate
occur in east-west trending isoclinal folds (Figure 2).

11Northwest of the property, a broad anticlinal axis strikes
northeast, normal to the Dryberry Batholith contact. This
broad structure and the curved gabbroic sills suggest the main
structural impact on the lower mafic volcanic sequence is
doming, likely related to the emplacement of the Dryberry
Batholith. The tight folding of the basalts and. sills in the
south may be related to the Crow Duck - Gibi Lake fault system
which Bond (1985) identified in this area (Figure 5). The
significance of this fault system is not understood, but the
Wendigo mine (67,423 oz) and the Duport mine (est. 500,000 oz)
occur along shears which may be splays from the main structure.
In the Witch Bay area, the fault zone marks the change from
mainly mafic flows to mainly intermediate volcaniclastic rocks
(Fig. 2). Near the Duport mine, the "Duport Deformation Zone"
occurs near the top of the "Lower Komati itic-Tholeii t ic
Series", close to the contact with the "Upper Calc-alkaline
Series" (Smith, 1984).
GEOLOGY - GOLDHILL/GOLDEN GATE
Li thology
The Goldhill property (Figures 2 and 3) is exclusively
underlain by south-facing..^pj-Llowed and massive flows and some
coarser, gabbro-textured, sill-like bodies which are likely
thick flows. Minor north-south trending porphyritic mafic
dykes crosscut the volcanic pile. The Golden Gate property
(Figures 2 and 4) is underlain by Lower Cycle mafic volcanic
rocks and the southwest portion of the Dryberry Batholith. The
mafic volcanics show incipient epidote patches and local
inter-pillow pyrite.

Appendix B-l contains a list of the whole rock
geochemistry of eight basalts, compared to tholeiites of Red
Lake, and a Jensen cation plot of the eight Goldhill/Golden
Gate samples. Styx (1985); (Appendix B-2, Fig. 2) identified
these rocks as iron-tholeiites. Lack of vesicles-suggest water
depths exceeded 2000 m. The epidote patches and interpillow
pyrite could be the result of primary seawater/rock
interaction. These rocks probably represent an abyssal
submarine lava plain.
Within approximately 200 m of the Dryberry Batholith
granitic dykes are emplaced into the volcanic rocks. The
Dryberry Batholith itself is a massive, homogenous granitoid
body.
Structure
Deformation occurs within distinct, narrow zones. These
zones have knife-edged boundaries, intensely schistose fabrics
and are dominated by chlorite with minor calcite and occasional
biotite. Maximum widths vary from 10 cm to 5 m but average 40
cm. The zones trend northeast, east, and southeast; the latter
being the most commonly--obser-ved- orientation (Figure 3). The
sharp boundaries and strong internal fabric are indicative of
shear zones. In many cases, weathering has obscured the
details of the internal fabric. Sense of shearing is
interpreted after Platt (1984) and depends upon the orientation
of the observer with respect to the movement, as illustrated in
Figure 6. Shear sense, where legible, developed primarily in
response to vertical movement. Minor horizontal dextral and

Fig. 6 Shear zone fabric development relative to shear direction.
The narrow width and remarkably knife-edged boundary of
the shear zones makes them difficult targets. However,
randomly oriented hairline fractures containing clinozoisite
occur for up to 5 m away from some of the shears.
Variations in the shear zones are indicated in Table IV, a
summary of 6 shear zones with associated quartz veining and/or
gold mineralization. The location of these veins and shears is
illustrated in Figure 7 and Appendix A contains detailed maps
and assay values for each.
The basalts at Goldhi11/Golden Gate are heavily fractured.
Air photo analysis by John Davies (unpublished) indicates at
least ten different fracture- orientations. There is no
preferred fracture orientation which would directly relate
fracturing to shearing, and no attempt was made to analyze
fractures. However, most of the fractures are subvertical.
The apparent doming in the northwest, vertical shear sense
and vertical fracturing are all evidence of vertical tectonics
acting on the lower mafic volcanic cycle.

VEINS
Gold mineralization at Goldhi11/Golden Gate is found
strictly related to quartz veins. Table IV summarizes
similarities and differences in several characteristics among 6
veins and shear zones examined. All main veins are composed
exclusively of quartz which is recrystallized to varying
degrees. Calcite is present in two veins but is unrelated to
gold mineralization, occurring in vugs, with euhedral quartz.
Ankerite veins occur at the Blackjack North.
Wallrock inclusions are frequently highly attenuated
(Plate 1). Folded veins of varying degree are found at the
Pebble vein (Goldhill), near the production shaft, and at the
Combination vein (Plates 2 and 3 respectively). The ankerite
veins at the Blackjack North contain bands of chlorite and also
angular wallrock inclusions (Plate 4). Similar brecciation in
quartz is found at the Golden Gate No. l vein. The bands of
chlorite and angular inclusions indicate crack and fill and
explosive hydraulic fracturing were the main mechanisms of vein
formation. Attenuated wallrock inclusions are found in the
Pebble, Slamdance and Golden Gate Shaft veins. These veins
probably formed by a similar mechanism but the inclusions have
become drawn out during progressive deformation. Similarly,
the strong recrystallization of quartz indicates post-
emplacement deformation. The main quartz veins were likely
emplaced into the shear zones which were forced open by
dramatic increases in pore water pressure. This would occur
because the inhomogenous vertical shear fabric developed
favours horizontal failure of a vertical shear zone, parallel
to the shear fabric (Kerrich s, Allison, 1978).

Wallrock Alteration
Minor wallrock alteration does occur at Blackjack North
where a small amount of ankerite is present in wallrock to
veinlets and at the Golden Gate Shaft where strong calcite and
biotite accompany chlorite 10 cm from the vein. A moderate
carb-sericite alteration is present in boulders' from a small
ore(?) pile near the Blackjack shaft. These are possibly from
workings which extended to Blackjack North.
Calcite is ubiquitous in shear zones, occurring as pods
and lenses in the plane of shearing. It never forms more than
53 and no spatial variation was mapped which would suggest a
link between calcite and gold mineralization.
Twenty-one elements* were routinely analyzed in samples
taken from barren shear zones throughout the property and from
"productive" shear zones which host gold-bearing quartz veins.
Of these, six elements (Na, Fe, As, Sb, W and Ba) are known to
occur in anomalous quantities within gold-associated wallrock
alteration haloes. Each of these elements have been plotted
against gold for the two types of shear zones. Results from
the barren shear zones (Figure 8a) indicate that no chemical
signature - of the type often associated with gold
mineralization - is present iri~~these zones. Results from the
Blackjack, Blackjack North and Bulldog shears indicate slightly
less scattering of the data (Fig. 8b). The data plots from the
productive shear zones (Fig. 9) indicate that no distinct
lithogeochemical signature is present in these shears; Fe, Na

and Sb are unrelated to gold content, As may have a weak
negative correlation, Ba and W may have weak positive
correlations. The range of gold content in all types of shear
zones is generally less than 3000 ppb. In massive basalt it
ranges from < 2 t o 19 ppb. Examination of all three diagrams
' would suggest that shear zones which have gold contents greater
than 100 ppb should be considered anomalous.
GOLD AND RELATED(?) METALLIC MINERALIZATION
The minor amounts of disseminated pyrrhotite and pyrite,
variable amounts of chalcopyrite and all gold at Goldhill/
Golden Gate are restricted to quartz veins. Whether or not
there is a genetic relationship between pyrite, pyrrhotite and
gold is not yet known, but a weak positive correlation exists
between copper and gold. A tentative paragenetic sequence
(Bond, 1985) has pyrite followed by pyrrhotite + chalcopyrite 4-
sphalerite. Gold was not observed in these particular
samples.
Gold occurs as free grains ranging from micron size (Bond,
1985) up to 2 mm (Slamdance Vein). The disseminated sulphides
are omnipresent in "quartz veins; the content and relative
proportions of the sulphides vary haphazardly, unrelated to
gold content. Table VI summarizes the various occurrences of
gold within the veins at Goldhill/Golden Gate. Assay results,
provided with the sample maps in Appendix A, clearly show the
strong nugget effect encountered in the veins. In summary, the
Golden Gate veins have returned the highest gold values from
any of the showings. The shaft vein (A-l Si 2 ) gave fairly
-
26
consistent high grade values along 4 m of strike length. The
Slamdance vein returned only one high grade gold value but
three other grains of gold were found at different locations in
the vein. Sporadic high grade gold was encountered in the
Goldhill (Pebble) vein, which widens to nearly one metre in
the east wall of the No. 2 shaft. Gold results were fairly
consistent in the Combination vein, but were subeconomic due to
the widths. Gold content, however does not seem to be diluted
in wider veins and so with better width, the Combination Vein
could become economic. The shear zones at the Blackjack area
returned disappointing gold results.
Preliminary evaluation of gold-copper results (Figure 10)
indicates a weak positive correlation exists. Copper and gold
show little correspondence at low copper contents but are more
closely related when copper content increases; a feature which
was also found by visually estimating chalcopyrite content
(e.g. Combination Vein). At higher copper contents, the
relationship is not consistent; 2 samples from the Slamdance
vein yielded copper, gold values (in percent and gjn/tonne,
respectively) of 1.97, 66.17, and 2.74, 1.71. Chalcopyrite
content also varies from vein to vein; it is far more abundant
in the Combination and Slamdance veins than at the others,
although some was found at the bottom of a trench at the
Blackjack North (and yielded 4.94 gm/t gold) and is present in
dump samples at the Blackjack (Bond, 1985). Figure 10 shows
that in the Golden Gate samples there is no correlation between
gold and copper. Malachite, a copper-carbonate mineral was
also observed in some quartz veins.

The lack of correlation of pyrite and pyrrhotite to gold
may be a result of recrystallization. The weak correlation of
copper and gold in each sample is not as important as the fact
that, broadly speaking (Golden Gate excepted), concentrations
of chalcopyrite are spatially related to concentrations of
gold.
CONTROLS ON GOLD MINERALIZATION
Stratigraphi c
No shear zones have been recognized in the Dryberry
Batholith. All shear zones and related gold-bearing veins are
restricted to the basalt sequence but they are not stratiform,
nor are they bound by any particular horizons within the basalt
sequence. Therefore stratigraphy has only broad controls over
gold mineralization. The contact zone between the basalts and
batholith is poorly exposed and has not been thoroughly
explored on the Golden Gate property. It is possible that
structural control might override the apparent stratigraphic
control and gold could be found in the granitoid rocks near the
contact.
Chemical
Results of the lithogeochemical analyses, discussed
previously, indicate that no major hydrothermal system is
associated with gold discovered so far on the Goldhill and
Golden Gate properties. Presently chemical control of gold
mineralization is limited to the fundamental conclusion that
the system which deposited gold probably also deposited quartz
and the sulphide minerals.
-
29
The minor and random amounts of pyrite and pyrrhotite, and
the weak positive correlation of copper to gold suggest that
gold was probably not transported in gold-thio complexes
(Seward 1973, 1984) but may have a more direct magmatic
association. This magmatic association draws on the observed
chalcopyrite at two locations in the Dryberry batholith
northwest of Goldhill/Golden Gate and the occurrence of strong
chalcopyrite near the batholith on the Goldhill property.
The lack of wallrock alteration raises the possibility
that if the gold is related to hydrothermal event the Goldhill/
Golden Gate property occurs on an exposed extremity of the
system. At the Wendigo mine, Brownell (1943) noted that
chalcopyrite and pyrite were associated with gold in the upper
levels of the mine but below the 335 m level, gold dropped off
dramatically and pyrrhotite was the dominant sulphide mineral.
Structural
The quartz veins which carry gold mineralization occur
exclusively in shear zones. Therefore shearing is a
prerequisite to quartz veining. The structural style present
on the Goldhill and Golden Gate properties is viewed as
individual structural horizons along which shearing varies from
hairline to metre or more-wide zones. The periodicity of this
variation is uncertain. Figure 11 is a sketch of these
structural horizons, showing their variation along strike.
These horizons possibly reach lengths of several hundred metres
(e.g. Pebble Vein structure?, Figure 3). The proportion of

significant shear zone development is not known. Quartz veins
are emplaced into the central portions of the significant shear
zones, pinching and swelling along strike. This relationship
is best seen in the 10 m long Slamdance Vein and the 37 m long
Combination Vein (Appendix A), but was observed in all veins.
The subvertical shear sense observed in the zones and
occasional rod-like inclusions suggest the veins have greater
vertical than horizontal dimensions.
Gold mineralization is not confined to a particular
structural orientation, as was the case with the Wendigo mine.
The individual shear zones change orientation along strike and
the dip is expected to vary also. Quartz veins and gold
mineralization do not necessarily occur at these flexures. Ore
localization can occur at the junction of two shear zones, but
none of these types of settings has yet been exposed on the
property. The Blackjack shaft, however, may occur at the
junction of the Goldhill structural horizon and the Blackjack
shear zone.
EXPLORATION RESULTS
Geochemistry
Lithogeochemistry analyses provided two important results.
The first is that gold occurs within quartz veins in high
concentrations, sporadically distributed. This is confirmed by
inspecting the analyses for all the exposed veins, in Appendix
A. The second result is that gold is its own pathfinder
element, as no other elements (except maybe copper) are

concentrated with gold or form broad haloes around it. An
arbitrary value of 100 ppb has been chosen to indicate what may
be considered anomalous.
Humus samples, collected in 1983 by Bonzano Exploration
were submitted for analysis by Kidd Creek Mines. Two test
lines were used which pass over the workings, at Goldhill
(Figure 12). The results show erratic but generally higher,
gold values over the known gold-bearing zones (contamination
effects are considered to be minimal). This suggests that on a
property scale program, designed to explore for other
potential zones, gold in humus samples may yet prove to be
useful.
Geophysics
A full report on the 1985 geophysical surveys at Goldhill/
Golden Gate is being prepared by Michael Zang. VLF,
Magnetometer and Dipole-Dipole I. P. geophysical surveys were
employed on these properties. The VLF surveys gave no response
to the known gold-bearing structures. The magnetometer surveys
produced very erratic results which, at this time, do not
appear to be significant with respect to locating the target
veins. The I.P. surveys have given the most encouragement so
far. The surveys were conducted over the Blackjack-Slamdance
area, the Goldhill structures and the Golden Gate structures.
Several subtle anomalies are present, associated with or along
strike extensions of known gold-bearing veins. The true
significance of these anomalies will be determined during the
proposed diamond drill program and will be reported at that
time .
