Annual report for year 2 EL 7845 and year 3 EL 7553 De Monchaix Area NT 17-12-93 to 16-12-94.

Abstract

88 RAB holes and 12 RC holes (576m) were completed as were 110 -40# soil samples on a 26 x 50m grid and 17 rock chip samples. The RAB drilling was on the boundary of the title north of the previous program. Results obtained are disappointing as they are only at background or slightly elevated levels. RC follow up of a previously outlined Au-Cu anomaly returned generally low results with a maximum assay of 2m at 0.6g-t Au. The holes intersected lithologies up to 40% pyrite. The RC work at the De Monchaux anomaly returned generally low values with a maximum of 2m at 4.57g -t Au. Wide zones of elevated base metal values were intercepted. The soil sampling at 300 x 50m Au anomaly was associated with elevated Pb, Zn and As values.
