EL 6969 Sandy Creek joint venture, annual report for the period 17-09-1995 to 16-09-1996

Abstract

Rock chip sampling at Brown's Hill returned values to 130ppm Cu, 1.2% Zn and 4100ppm Pb. Follow up work will include drilling this area. Other work completed included the receipt of assays from BZ-6 and BZ-7. BZ-6 encountered significant zones of hydraulic brecciation with associated pyritic veining and BZ-7 encountered vuggy leached dolomite with minor bitumen and calcite veining with only traces of sphalerite mineralization. The gravity survey consisted of 400 gravity stations and merged with previous data. Interpretation outlined the margin of the basin as a sharp gravity high and may be interpreted as the high density Burt Range Formation. TEM was used to determine depth to top of formation.
