Pine Creek group of tenements EL's 8545, 8893 and 9127, Final group report for exploration period ending 16 April 2001

Abstract

The report detail exploration activities carried out on the project area including sampling programs, geological mapping and traverses and geophysical interpretations. Anomalous results from the soil sampling at EL 8545 peaked between 158 and 298 ppb Au and the best results from stream sediment sampling was 43.6ppb Au. Further sampling returned results values of 145 and 480 ppb Au. Results from hand and auger sampling program were disappointing with peak value of 11.45 ppb Au. Sampling programs over EL 8893 returned 0.4 ppb Au from stream sediment sampling program and 200 ppb Au from rock chip sampling program. The anomalous results in the north were sought to be associated with a NNW trending magnetic linear. The immediate area of the anomaly is near a creek draining from several small mines, which may explain the anomalism. An isolated high of 1.3 g/t Au was returned from the soil sampling on the western edge of the EL 9127 and 1.1 ppm and 1.07 ppm along a line that overlies an interpreted NNW fault structure. There were no encouraging stream sediment results. A peak result from rock chip sampling was 280 ppb Au.
