Archean Section
Seventeen samples were collected in the Archean Section, primarily in and around historic prospect pits. Several quartz and carbonate veins were sampled. The quartz veins located within the Archean section are steeply dipping and generally trend east-west.

Rio Tinto has conducted several successful sampling programs in the
Devonian Jefferson Dolomite
Twenty-nine rock samples were collected along the footwall of the Silver Star Fault within the Devonian Jefferson Dolomite. These samples were collected from several historic prospect pits and scattered outcrops. The Jefferson in this area shows strong limonite-jasperoid vein and veinlet mineralization, and high-grade Au values track with the jasperoids. The Jefferson Dolomite can be a great host rock due to contained relic hydrocarbon content mixing with metalrich hydrothermal fluids.

Western skarn contact
Six samples were collected along the western edge of the Madison Skarn. Here the sediments form a thin skin covering the granodiorite-sediment contact with widespread hornfels and scattered structurally controlled skarn occurrences. Numerous historic prospects can be found on these structural skarn zones.

QAQC Procedures
QAQC samples were inserted into every laboratory batch commensurate with the stage of exploration and sample type in the batch. Rio Tinto uses blanks, certified reference materials and field duplicate samples for QAQC. Blank material is a >2cm diameter washed granitic gravel material from landscape supply stores. Certified reference materials are either commercial standards from
