INTRODUCTION

GEOLOGICAL SURVEY ON THE

NEWMAN -16 GROUP HOLLOWAY TOWNSHIP

LARDER LAKE MINING DIVISIN DISTRICT OF COCHRANE, ONTARIO

Page 4

The NEWMAN -16 Group is a single block of sixteen claims (one block) in this group.

Claim 4225382 is located in Holloway Township, Larder Lake Mining Division.

A Geological Survey was started on the new block of claims called the NEWMAN-

16 Group. The NEWMAN-16 Group has a new (2008) south grid (half of the block was

grided), the baseline was established from the number 4 comer post for a distance of 800

meters east to the 800 meter line post towards the number 1 comer post . For the purpose of

this report, the new south grid was used in this section of the claim, to identify the geological

and topographical features noted in this survey. In the remaining half east of the grid all

comer posts, line posts and claim lines as well as access trails as tie-in points for the Magusi

River, creeks, ponds, outcrops, vegetation boundaries and glacial eskers for this survey. There

are has been no stripping or drilling noted in by pervious owners. One third of this block of 16

units has been timbered in 2007 (winter) in the early 2000.

The traversing around this block of 16 units was extremdy difficult due to the extreme wet

conditions and the timbering operations of 2000. Due to the amount of second growth

covering the claim block north and south of the Magusi River. For the south section of the

block, south of the Magusi River a small 4 wheeler trail was used for access.

Geological Survey was contracted out to Miss Wendy K. Well{:r. All drafting and

contouring and report writing was done by Miss Wendy K. Weller.

Finalization of the report and all assessment data forms were completed by Mrs. Gerry

Perron.

LOCATION AND ACCESS

The claim group consists of (16) units of contiguous unpatented mining claims located

in the southwest part of Holloway Township. Access to the property is via the Harker­

Holloway access road and a secondary mining road which goes parallel to the Harker-Elliott

boundary.

The NEWMAN-I6 Group is found in the Larder Lake Mining Division, and they are

within the jurisdiction of the Kirkland Lake Resident Geologist. Access is from Kirkland

Lake towards the east for 13 kilometers to the Harker-Holloway road (Highway 672). Follow

672 north for 49 kilometers to Highway 10 I.East on Highway 101 to a timber access road at

Holloway Lake than south to the extended winter logging road (4 wheeler accessible) that

crosses the new west baseline and south grid.

Ownership of the claims has been attested to by Tiger Gold Exploration Corporation,

103 Government Road East, Kirkland Lake, Ontario, and was not independently ascertained

by the writer.

PROPERTY HISTORY

At present time, the first survey completed on the NEWMAN-16 GROUP, by Tiger

Gold Exploration Corporation, was a detail magnetometer and vlf. Survey done last

October/November,2008 and approved by the ministry.

REGIONAL GEOLOGY

The O.D.M. Annual Report, being Vol. LXII, Part 7, 1953, tith:~d Geology ofthe North

Half of Holloway Township by J. Satterly only covers the north part of the township and does

not describe at all any part of the south half in which the property O(;curs. From the report,

only a general description can be made of the geology and related topographical features.

The underlying bedrock is Precambrian, and is composed of magnesium rich and iron

rich tholeiitic basalts and andesite. These rocks are dark green to black and grey to green

flows. The trend of these flows appear to be northeast to southeast direction. The area of the

claim block occurs on the north side of the contact between the Upper and Lower Blake River

Group.

The contact with the overlying Blake River Group (upper and lower groups) can be

defined from air magnetic data, however a zone of vertical gradation up to a mile wide mayor

may not be present.

Blake River Volcanic Rocks are composed of calc-alkaline minerals. Massive and

pillow flows occur in sequence with pillow and pyroclastic breccia and lapilli and ash tuff.

Chemically they represent rhyolite, dacite, andesite and basalt. Rocks of the Blake River

Group underlie the base metal camp of Noranda, Quebec. Eastern Clifford and Ben Nevis

Townships have several base metal showings as well as relatively more bed rock exposures

then has the Elliott Groups.

ECONOMIC GEOLOGY

For the Blake River Group, a megacauldron has been defmed which occupied what is

now the central part of the Blake River Synclinorium. Within such a large feature, the sense

of vent vs.proximal vs. distal positioning becomes rather vague. The three will have

completely inter-fingered with each other through time. In general, base metal deposits form

in proximal to vent areas. Stratiform gold deposits are likely to be found in distal regions.

Holloway Township is known for gold occurrences, they are located along margins of

alkaline rocks (Jensen, 1978). Alteration is present in shear zones, and fractures which

contain quartz, epidote, calcite, chalcopyrite, pyrite and specular hematite.

TOPOGRAPHY

The easterly flowing Magusi River occupies a marked regional depression in the south

section of the property. From the north side of this valley the rock rises to flat topped rock

hills which occupy the northern part of the group of properties that this block of 16 belongs to.

The area is largely drift covered (clay, boulders) with numerous low rounded rocks projecting

a few feet above the overburden. In the center section of the west sidt: of the new grid a large

glacial esker is noted that runs south/east. East of the m:w grid, the area is flat to a gentle

south slope towards the Magusi River.

There are three large drainage creeks that drain south into the Magusi River. These

creeks are found at the bottom of steep (clay) ravines. These bottoms may possibly be the

topographic expression of north-south fault zones. The relief over this block of claims does

not exceed 50 to 75 meters. Erosion due to timbering operations ,md natural erosion has

exposed small outcrop showings throughout the block.

A quarter of the property was timbered out in 200012007. In these areas a very thick

second growth of alder, willow, poplar, birch and maple stand. Three quarters of the

remaining vegetation is thick/wet spruce bog. Very thick sections of allder/poplar surround the

Magusi River and the 2 main creeks that feed the Magusi River.

GEOLOGICAL SURVEY

OBSERVATION OF FIELD RESULTS

Within the boundaries of the property (N-16) the rocks consist of the Keewatin type

Volcanics of Archaean age. The volcanic fonnations have a general e:ast-westerly strike with

steep dips of 180 to 185 degrees to the south.

-1.Pillow Lava Deposits (2) within the magnesium-rich sequences are of basalt composition.

Description: Dip angle 180 degrees - 183 degrees

Fresh face- dark to light green

Weathering colour -light green, to rust brown

On the weathered surface, the edges show a lighter colour than the matrix.

Many of the blocks are large portions of broken pillows.

Salvages - ranges from 1 inch to 2 inches in thickness, quartz filled with epidote

stringers, pillows tightly packed together, locally phenocrysts of plagioclose up to 1-2 cm. in

dimension are concentrated in the pillows outer limits.

2a Andesite Description:

weathered - dark green

fresh face - light green

grain size - fine to medium

Containing 10 to 15% homeblende with some chlorite. The feldspar ground mass has

been largely altered to secondary mineral of which epidote appears to be the most common.

~Flow Top Breccia !Pillow Breccia (2b) within the magnesium-rich sequences are of

basalt composition.

Description: Colour - dark green to black, Weathering colour - dark brown,

fine grained, intense fraturing - 50 degrees to 58 degrees

Irregular patches of epidote with spider quartz stringers, non magnetic

A closely spaced series of brecciated and fragmental flow tops with similar appearance to

dacite. The fragments range in size from one-sixteenth of a inch to a inch. The fragments

have been fractured and re-cemented with lava material.

Samples have been taken for whole rock analysis.

CONCLUSIONS:

This fall the remaining east section of the new south grid will bt~ established for the

purpose of running a magnetometer and electromagnetic surveys. At the completion of these

surveys all information will be pooled for further investigation of the ground.
