HYDRO GRID

Introduction

The following report describes the results of ground

geophysical surveys completed for Essex Minerals Company, Halliday

Project, Ontario. Line cutting was completed during the period

January 4 to February 26, 1978. Geophysical surveys were completed

during the period February 4 to April 15, 1978.

Property Description

The property consists of ten contiguous, unpatented mining

claims designated as follows:

L500779 to L500782 inclusive

L500929 to L500934 inclusive

l

l

Property, Location and Access

The property is located in the north quarter of Semple and Hutt

Townships. Access to the property is via the Papakomeka Lake road

south from Timmins then east on the Matachewan road to the Ontario

Hydro line that crosses the west side of Hutt Township. The hydro

line crosses the central part of the property approximately 1.5 miles

south of the Matachewan road.

Geophysical Surveys

Magnetic and horizontal loop electromagnetic surveys were

completed on the property.

The magnetic survey was carried out utilizing a Scintrex MP-2

Proton Magnetometer capable of reading total field values to an

accuracy of * l gamma. Readings were taken at 50 foot intervals on

all base lines and cross lines. Base stations were established at

100 foot intervals along all base lines and tie lines. Diurnal

variation was corrected for by tieing in to the base stations at*

time intervals generally less than half hour and in no case greater

than one hour.

The horizontal loop electromagnetic survey was carried out

utilizing an Apex Parametrics Max Min II HEM. The HEM unit measures

the in-phase and Quadrature components of the secondary field

developed in the vicinity of conductive material. The measurements

are accurate to i l** Headings were taken at 444 KB and 1777 Hz

frequencies utilizing a 400 foot reference cable.

Conductivity-width and depth of overburden determinations are

presented on the 444 Hz HEM maps.

Regional Geology

The regional geology of the area is presented on Ontario

Department of Natural Resources Compilation Map 2205 (Timmins-

Kirkland Lake).' " *-

The area is underlain by an Archean volcanic-sedimentary complex

locally referred to as the Halliday dome. The general stratigraphic

sequence in the area is as follows:

A thick sequence of mafic volcanic rocks is overlain by a

felsic volcanic complex consisting of flows, pyroclastics and

volcaniclastic sediments. Ultramafic flows or sills are common in

the general stratigraphic interval marked by the felsic volcanic-

mafic volcanic contact zone. Sedimentary rocks occur intercalated

with the volcanic rocks and also occur at the top of the strati

graphic sequence.

Folding in the area is complex but generally occurs about fold

axes having an east-west trend. Some large scale cross folding hasM

occurred about north-south trending fold axis.

Two major sets of faults occur in the area. One set has a

northeasterly strike direction and the other has a north to north

westerly strike direction.

Three sets of diabase dikes occur in the area. Dikes having

a northerly strike direction are probably Matachewan-type. Dikes

having a northeasterly strike direction are* probably Sudbury"j

type.

A thin veneer of generally flat lying early Proterozoic

sedimentary rocks unconformably overlies the Archean rocks in partst.

of the area.

Property Geology and Previous Work

Hollinger Exploration has recorded geophysical and geological

surveys in the vicinity of the present grid. Two drill holes were

reported near the west boundary of the property. y

The property is underlain by interlayered mafic and felsic

volcanic rocks with an east-west strike direction.

Geophysical Results

Magnetic Survey:

Maximum magnetic relief on the property is 1300 gammas. The

property displays generally low magnetic relief with a number of

narrow magnetic anomalies. The magnetic anomalies have no electro

magnetic response and are probably due to disseminated magnetite.

HEM Survey:

Three electromagnetic anomalies were located during the survey.

Anomaly A

Anomaly A occurs from line 36W to 60W. The 444 Hz data displays

an intermittent response. The zone is a weak, thin conductor from

line 36W to line 48W. From line 52W to line 60W the conductive

zone is 50 to 200 feet wide with good conductivity. The best

response is on line 60W where the data indicates a zone 150 feet

wide with a conductivity-width of 20 mhos and a depth of burial of

40 feet.

Anomaly Bt

Anomaly B occurs as a single line response on line SOW with a

coincident 325 gamma magnetic anomaly. The data indicates a thin

Anomaly B - Con't

zone with a conductivity-width of 4 mhos and a depth of burial of

60 feet.

Anomaly C

Anomaly C is a weak single line response on line 12W. The

zone is at approximately the same stratigraphic position as

Anomaly A.

Conclusions and Recommendations

Anomalies A and B have probably been drill tested by Hollinger

Exploration. A field check should be made to locate the position of

the drill site relative to the conductor axis.

Anomaly C is too thin and has too short a strike length to be

of economic significance.
