SUMMARY

During the winter of 19711 magnetic and

electromagnetic surveys were carried out. This was

followed by limited prospecting in the area of two

conductive jtoues. E.ach of these zones were subsequently

tested by diamond drilling.

The first bole encountered minor sulphides,

enough to explain the electromagnetic anomaly and the

rusty outcrop. The second hole was spotted to test

a magnetic anomaly In an overburdened area. The lower

portion of the hole contained sufficient magnetic volcanics

and minor pyrrhotite to explain the magnetic anomaly.

No further work is warranted on the basis

of the surveys, drilling and current knowledge of the

property, but the property should be reviewed A few months

prior to the anniversary date because new data Is always

becoming available in ajvactl'res.mlnlng camp.'/•- ' A

Valora Lake Property

Sturgeon Lake Area

Patricia Mining Dlviaion

Ontario

I. INTRODUCTION

Xtra holds a group of seventeen claims In.

the southwest corner of Sturgeon Lake, Patricia

fining Division, Ontario. These are located on a limb

of volcanics extending oouthwetst from Sturgeon Lake.

Geophysical survey and diamond drilling were carried

out between March and July 1971 over the group.

II. PROPERTY. LOCATION AND ACCESS

The group of seventeen contiguous unpatented

mining claims are located on the northwest shore of

Valora Lake, three miles east of Highway 599 and three

miles south of Sturgeon Lake. The claims are as follows:

PA 245516 l claimPA 21+5531 to -28 Inclusive 8 claimsPA 21+5531 l claimPA 21+61+01+ to -10 Inclusive _^claims

Total l? claims (680 acres)

The group Is shown on S.W, part of Sturgeon Lake Area

{Plan M2266). Access IB either by float plane to Valora

Lake from Ignace sixty miles to the southwest on the

Trans Canada Highway, or by road along Highway 599. - ' . ; '-

and then along the powerllne right-of-way (by tractor). ...-,,'V- : '.-' : '- ' fto the property.

III. GENERAL GEOLOGY" — — ——— — —— " —— ' ——————————— " — '

The area Is underlain by Keewatin volcanics

bordered on the south by undifferentiated granite rocks.

The volcanics are not mapped In any detail but to the

north, similar rocks are usually metamorphosed basic to

acid flows and tuffs. The general strike of the volcanics

la east-west.

IV. GEOPHYSICAL SURVEYS

There are seven stronger magnetic anomalies

and alx of these conform to the east-west strike of the

volcanics. The seventh anomaly occurs In an overburdened

area in the southeastern corner of the property, on the

shore of Valora Lake. The shape and texture of this

anomaly suggests that is might arise from the syenite

and related rocks.

The property was surveyed with dual-frequency

vertical loop electromagnetic equipment {McPhar SS15).

No strong conductors occurred on the property, but two

high frequency anoamlles occur in two Interesting geologic

settings.

Page 5: XTRA DEVELOPMENTS VALORA LAKE PROPERTY STURGEON …...Cle-dhiU, l"?. A., ^. Kng. CERTIFICATE I, Tom Gledhill, of the Borough of North York, In the Province of Ontario hereby certify

V. DIAMOND DRILLING

In *July 1971 two diamond drill holes were

completed on the property. The first hole was to teat

an EM conductor where some rusty outcrop was observed.

The second hole was to test a magnetic anomaly to the

southeast.

The first hole encountered minor sulphides from

96.0 feet to 135*0 feet, enough to explain the electro

magnetic anomaly and the rusty zone. Hole l was 598.0 feet,

The second hole was spotted to test a magnetic

anoamly In an overburdened area. The lower portion of the

hole 2U5 to 300 feet, contained sufficient magnetic volcanics

and minor pyrrhotite to explain the magnetic anomaly. The

depth of this hole was 301.0 feet.

VI. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

The diamond drilling explained the geophysical

anomalies.

No further work Is warranted on the basis of

the surveys, drilling and current knowledge of the property

but the property should be reviewed a few months prior to

the anniversary date In November 1973 because new data

is always becorniaaliable In an active mining camp.

At tne present time no further work is recommended, but

the property should be kept in good standing.. It is .

recommended that 'new developments in the Langmuir Township

area by Inco-Noranda should be watched. If an interest in

nickel returns, consideration should be given to surveying the

serpentinite with induced polarization in a search for

disseminated sulphides.

(b) From Valora

Valora carried on a magnetic survey and drilling program on

these claims and spent approximately $18,000 up to the date of

amalgamation. The Corporation has not expended any money on

the development of these claims as of the date of this

Prospectus, and does not intend to spend any money in the

near future.

The following is a summary of the report of Tom

Gledhill, B.A./P.Eng., on the said mining claims, dated

January 2 , 1 973, whose full report is available in the public

files of the Ontario Securities Commission. :' !

During -the winter of 1971, magnetic and electromagnetic*

surveys were carried out. This was followed by limited

prospecting in the area of two conductive zones. Each of

these zones were subsequently tested by diamond drilling.

The first hole encountered minor sulphides, enough to

explain the electromagnetic anomaly and the rusty outcrop.

The second hole was spotted to test a magnetic anomaly in an

overburdened area. The lower portion of the hole

contained sufficient magnetic volcanics and minor pyrrhotite

to explain.the magnetic anomaly.

No further work is warranted on the basis of the

surveys/ drilling and current knowledge of the property,

but the property should be reviewed a few months prior to

the anniversary date because new data is always becoming

available in an active mining camp.

No provision is being made by the Corporation at the

present regarding any further possible costs.
