Drilling is taking place in the eastern and the western ends of the ~275m stripped strike of the 2.2km mineralized strike which Renforth has drilled within the known 5km strike of the
The best visual mineralization has so far been observed within strongly albitized calc-silicate altered zones within the ultramafics where frequent fine to coarse stringers, disseminations, and occasionally semi-massive sulfides, including pyrite, pyrrhotite, pentlandite, sphalerite, and chalcopyrite. Mineralization in the form of fine to coarse stringers and nodules of sulfide has also been observed in drill core in narrow graphitic bands at the ultramafic-sedimentary contacts.
Current Surimeau District Activities
The following are currently ongoing:
1 – Assay results from the beginning of the trenching/channeling at
2 – Renforth has contracted an EM/Mag survey to cover the entire 20km
3 – Drill core sample material is being selected for additional assaying to determine what degree of platinum group element mineralization is present. The only testing for platinum and palladium carried out to date was on the initial surface prospecting samples taken from the Colonie, LaLonde and
Current Parbec Gold Deposit Activities
The following are currently ongoing;
1 – Our deposit model on sections is being updated by our geologists with the results from the >15,000m of drilling completed earlier this year.
2 – This process is highlighting additional sampling which needs to be carried out. As we have previously stated it is difficult to visually assess the presence of gold in Parbec drill core, with rare exception. This leads to areas not being sampled, which we now know need to be sampled based on recent results. We will do the additional sampling as soon as possible. If this sampling results in gold results it will positively impact our deposit model.
3 – Renforth has commenced discussions with a group of consultants who come well recommended, to commence to process of carrying out a structural study at Parbec in order to learn the controls on the magnetic diorite mineralization at Parbec and the diorite splay into the Pontiac.
