Ltd. but still registered in the name of Dunraine as
trustees pending resolution of certain vesting order
applications relating to three of these fifteen claims.
No work obligations
c31 and one-half claims optioned to Pan Orvana Resources
Inc. of Vancouver, B.C.
There is a S50,000 work
commitment to Citadel during the first year. Claims
remain in Citadel name. Option rights restricted to
mining rights above a specified datum elevation, being
10,435 elevation on Citadel Mine elevations. Option was
signed may 15, 1990.
6)
Regional and Local Geology
Property is located in the Archean Michipicoten Green
stone Belt of the Superior province of the Canadian
Shield. Bedrock is dominantly intermediate to felsic
volcanic strata with related intrusive plugs and later
Archean Mafic Gabbro plugs and sills.
Proterozoic
dykes
of Diabase and Lamprophyre post-date
gold
mineralization.
Gold Mineralization is found in all Archean rock types,
in shear zones or in Quartz filled tension fractures
associated with Archean Gabbro.

7)
Current Status of Exploration
Local properties and mines have been explored since
1898.
Profit history has however been poor.
Citadel
recently ceased operations at the Surluga Mine because of
unsatisfactory
grades
and
poor
correlation
between
predicted and actual grades.
The summer program was designed to verify
known
showings in terms of grade and tonnages. The program was
also designed to give the entire property a sufficently
detailed examination so as to establish the presence of any
gold bearing structures of a sufficently high tonnage and
grade to meet specific criteria.
Common controlling structures and the possibilities of
regional geological controls were examined and any areas of
interest were studied in some detail.
During the past field season, Citadel persued an
agressive program of field mapping, trenching, stripping and
sampling.
A 21 mile linecutting contract was completed in
June to facilitate mapping of a previously poorly examined
portion of the property. During the early portion of the
spring, controlled air photography was flown at a scale of
l" to 10,000'. This survey covered the entire township of
McMurray including all of Citadel's landholdings. The air
photographs were utilized to provide topographical control
for basemaps.
Four major targets, and two less defined ones were
extensively
stripped
and sampled during
the
season.
Mechanical stripping was done with a blade-equipped skidder
and a backhoe equipped with a one-yard bucket. Crews then
washed the exposed bedrock with a Wadax high pressure pump.
All veins and prospective looking areas were subsequently
sampled and mapped.
During previous exploration seasons much of the Citadel
property had been mapped at various scales and for various
reasons. However, prior to this season, there existed large
gaps in the mapping coverage of the present land package.
In some cases there was little correlation between various
detailed maps which had been produced for reaons other than
gold exploration. Mapping at a scale of l" tp 200' was c
n--^^ moping Owaihe a?l8peHSKetht8 Seli^el
work. Ae part of the compillation of mapping, a
interpretation was also completed for McMurray
Township.
8)
Recommended Work Project
An integrated program of mapping, geochemical and geo
physical surveys, and overburden stripping was completed
during the 1990 field season. No diamond drilling was under
taken as part of this program. See 'Report on Activities'1.5.

SUMMARY
1.1
This report is prepared to summarise the work done and
results achieved from a program of mineral exploration
conducted on properties owned by Citadel Gold Mines in the
period from April 27 to December 1989.
The report is
prepared to document those activities which are elligible
for government assistance under OMIP Grant No. OM90-026.
1.2
The project was an integrated exploration program conducted
on
a large property consisting of 214 patented
and
unpatented claims. The property includes a recently shut
down cyanide mill, 5 formerly producing mines and numerous
other abandoned underground exploration prospects. In the
period from 1986 to 1989, it was the subject of a sustained
program of surface exploration and underground exploratory
development.

The 1990 program consisted of:
1.3.1
1.3.2
1.3.3
1.3.4
1.3.5

REP1990.R
Aerial photography at a scale of 1:10,000 over about 50
square miles.
21.2 miles of new linecutting.
95 man-days of prospecting.
Aproximately 1200 acres of detailed geological mapping,
presented on a scale of i "-20Q feet, and additional
geological mapping of trenched and stripped areas in
greater detail.
Recompilation of numerous geophysical surveys conducted
over the past 22 years, with re-interpretaion of data
on a comprehensive basis.
Conduct of a limited test survey to determine the
applicability of VLF EM surveying to locate specific
shear structures on the property.
Checking of geochemical anomalies located in 1989, and
collection of 130 additional samples conducted over
anomalous areas located then.
Stripping and trenching at 10 localities, covering 8.5
acres.
Sampling of sites on areas stripped during the current
program and during past stripping programs. 958 rock
samples were taken for assay and chemical analysis and
plotted.
Drill core found on properties purchased by Citadel in
1988 was relogged and replotted.
In the course of this program, data collected in
earlier programs was integrated with results or re
interpreted, or replotted on better controlled plans.

1.4
As a result of this project, the following conclusions
been drawn:
have
1.4.1
The extents of several formerly unrelated prospects
have been defined and accurately compared with one
another on a single survey grid. Compilation of these
locations relative to former drill holes has assisted
in defining areas where past exploration was inade
quate.
Several of these prospects have been selected
for further recommended exploration by trenching, di
amond drilling or possible underground exploration.
1.4.2
It is concluded that geophysical methods are
of
marginal utility as tools for direct location of
gold
mineralised
horizons in
this
environment.
Magnetic surveys are useful mapping tools, and there
are a few non-economic features which can be defined by
electromagnetic methods.
1.4.3
It is concluded that geochemical sampling of humus is
an effective method of locating large concentrations of
gold, and is unlikely to miss a major deposit outcroping at surface.
1.4.4
Prospecting has failed to indicate sufficient reason to
retain certain outlying properties which have been
abandoned.
1.4.5
The Jubilee and Darwin Shear Zones are significant
faults with mappable differences in units on opposite
sides.
The Darwin Shear is probably the displaced
continuation of the Jubilee Shear: There is a signifi
cant difference in the dip of these two units which is
interpreted as being the result of flattening of the
shear zone at depth prior to its displacement along the
Parkhill Fault. An alternative interpretation would be
that they are different faults. The displacement on
these faults is not determined.
The intensity of the
Darwin Shear is less than that of the Jubilee Shear
Zone, and at its south end, the Darwin Shear appears to
be dissipating into a zone of schistose pyroclastic
rocks.
Both shear zones carry anomalous gold values
throughout at low concentrations, with commercial gold
values concentrated locally.
1.4.6
The only planar marker which has been traced across the
Parkhill Fault is the Jubilee-Darwin Shear Zone.
This
indicates an apparent 3000 foot left hand offset.
There are no other mappable planar features which can
be used to calculate the true displacement vector with
precision.
REP1990.R
f. 5
The principal targets for continued exploration of the
Citabar Properties located or confirmed by this program are:
1.5.1
Repetitions of the veins in the set of sheared zones
parallel to the Parkhill Mine. The mine was previously
viewed as one continuous vein, rather than a repetitive
set of veins.
1.5.2
Deep exploration of the Jubilee Shear Zone beneath the
large anomalous gold area around and north of the
Parkhill Mine. This anomaly increases the probablity
of success in finding a large deep seated deposit here.
As a result, reconsideration of a previously proposed
program of deep drilling is warranted; up to 24 holes
totalling 63,600 feet of core.
1.5.3
Drill testing of the untested north and south ends of
the Darwin Shear, with particular emphasis on the north
end where it is hosted in competent intermediate intru
sive rocks. Drilling in this program would include 4
to 8 holes totalling 2000 to 3200 feet.
1.5.4
The eastward and downdip extensions of the Nyman Vein
remain prospective. Additional stripping and limited
diamond drilling to test for this vein under a swamp
should be considered.
1.5.5
Further mapping and prospecting of the area
the Grace Mine is warranted.
1.5.6
The Jubilee Shear Zone and the Darwin Shear are
apparently the faulted continuations of one another,
and are themselves the most significant structure con
trolling gold mineralisation on these claims. There is
no evidence from this program that they are subordinate
structures associated with another higher
ranking
structural dislocation.

Summary of Stripping/Trenching Activity
during.the 1990 field season.
^
'
A
major portion of the season's
fieldwork
involved
mechanical stripping and trenching on pre-selected targets in
McMurray Township.
In some cases these target areas were
extentions of previous stripping programs, such as the Mariposa
and Sunrise areas. Other areas, such as the Darwin Shear zone
were known targets, but with no previous exposure. Outcrops were
cleaned behind the backhoe using a Wajax high-pressure pump and
fire hose.
Sampling was done manually on marked and measured
'panels' or sections of vein. Where possible, all exposed vein
material and any other prospective looking material was sampled.
Samples were cut on a 5-foot pattern on some formations and on a
10-foot pattern on the less prospective ground. Where possible,
sampling was tied to known survey points.
The four major areas of stripping activity included the
following, with an estimate of the extent of each stripped area.

No mechanical stripping
A brief description of each of the trenching operations
follows.
Included with each is a very limited outline of the
background of each project.
Mariposa Veins
'The Mariposa shaft is located a few yards west of the old
Gold Mines Road between the Grace and Parkhill Mines.
Several
veins are present near the shaft and extend for over a half-mile
southeast. Other parallel veins of a similar character are found
up to one mile southeast on strike.' (R.J. Rupert. OGS open file
report, 1977. No 5283.)
In 1987, Citadel Gold Mines completed approximately 1700
feet of stripping on two veins with some stripping on an
interconnecting vein structure. It became apparent that the vein
hosting the defunct production shaft did not carry appreciable
gold.
However the sub-parallel vein 200 feet to the south did
carry gold. Stripping was extended east on this auriferous vein
as far as the existing property boundary would allow at the time.
In 1988 the ground immediately east of the Mariposa vein
exposure was aquired by Citadel under an option agreement.
No
work was undertaken on this ground in 1988 or 1989. In 1990 the
surface
grid was extended over the optioned property
to
facilitate mapping. The area was subsequently mapped at a scale
ExplSum90
of l" to 200' and prospected. Numerous exposures of quartz and
two old exploration shafts were found east and south of the
previously exposed vein.
t '
Land clearing and stripping commenced on May 30 to extend
the known Mariposa vein to the east on to the optioned land.
This exposed a 170'long extention of the vein with scattered gold
values.
The vein appeared to terminate or be offset in a fault
breccia structure trending almost 70 degrees to the vein.
Skidder clearing in the vicinity of one of the old pits
approximately 700' east of the primary stripping exposed a wide,
(4'to 10') continuous mineralized quartz vein. The strike of
this vein is 155 degrees with a dip of 70
degrees easterly.
Stripping exposed this vein over a continuous length of 1100' south
from an existing beaver pond near the original pit exposure.
Overall, the vein strikes approximately N140E with dips ranging
from 55 degrees at the north end to 75 - 80 degrees at the
southernmost exposure.
The cleared corridor averaged
feet
wide.
The vein structure was sampled with 5' and 10' panel
(chip) samples over its entire length. Sphalerite, pyrite, and
chalcopyrite were observed in certain sections.
Gold assays
proved disappointing, averaging between trace and 0.04 oz/ton.
One pod of fine grained but spectacular visible gold was located
on the vein near the southern end of the stripped zone. The vein
appears to continue beyond the limit of the stripping.
A sub parallel vein approximately 140' west of the main
structure was exposed near the southern limit of the stripping.
This vein varied in width from 12" to 30", and is exposed over a
strike length of 60'.
No significant values were reported.
Sunrise Veins
In 1989 Van Ollie Explorations Ltd. (G. Babcock) stripped
and sampled an extensive area in the vicinity of the old Sunrise
Mine. At least three major veins, namely the Sunrise, Michelson
and Willcox veins, and numerous lesser vein
systems were
exposed. Two shafts exist on this property, one on the Sunrise
vein and one on the Willcox vein. This property is north and
slightly east of the Parkhill mine. The set of east-west veins
sits astride the Citadel - Van Ollie property boundary. The 1990
stripping commenced on the property boundary and proceeded west.
On May 16, 1990, Citadel Gold Mines Inc. mobilized a backhoe
and skidder on to the property and commenced clearing. An area
approximately 400'by 200' was cleared. A second narrower area was
stripped to the west of the boundary clearing.
Total exposed
length is approximately 800 feet.
The encouraging gold assays in the vicinity of the common
boundary did not persist to the west. Gold values were generally
low (Tr. to 0.04 oz/ton) on most of the vein. All exposed quartz
veining was sampled including some quartz stockwork material which
appeared quite barren. The skidder was utilized to rough strip a
series of quartz showings in a rough line from the Sunrise area
to the Minto shaft. These spots did show some values (0.108
oz/ton) but were generally disappointing.
ExplSum90
Minto 'B' Shear
Sub parallel to the Jubilee ehear which hosts the Surluga
and Jubilee mines, there exists'a second relatively strong shear
zone. This Minto 'B' shear dips 80 to 85 degrees east.
In 1987 this zone was exposed for approximately 1200 feet
from the shoreline of Minto lake northward. The entire width of
the
zone was sampled.
Gold values were
anomalous,
but
disappointing in overall grade. This structure had also been
intersected by the seventh level of the Surluga workings and by
several diamond drill holes, both from surface and underground.
Scattered good gold mineralization has been recorded in several
of the drill holes.
From a combination of air-photograph interpretation and
prospecting, the northward extention of the shear zone was
examined. Rather than incur the expense of continuous stripping
over 1500-*- feet of structure, two short sections were stripped,
washed and examined. This totalled approximately 270 feet on
strike.
This effectively allowed us to examine the Minto 'B'
structure over a strike length of 2300 feet.
The shear structure appears to weaken to the north.
Values
ranged between trace and 0.121 Oz/ton. Overall grade was very
low on surface. However, the structure is persistant and is
possibly one of the controlling feature of mineralization in the
vicinity.
Its regional significance is not fully understood at
this time.
Darwin Shear Structure
During the course of summer exploration work in McMurray
Township in 1980, Dunraine Mines Ltd explored a topographical
linear west of the Parkhill property. In surface aspect this
linear is not unlike the Jubileee Shear, striking NNE and dipping
to the east. It is readily discernable on air photographs.
The
visual expression of the linear was enhanced in 1981 when the
power-line right of way was re-established along this trend.
In 1981 and 1982, 18 Diamond Drill Holes were drilled into
this structure from the hanging-wall or east side of the linear.
Three of these holes, spread over a strike length of 3000+ feet,
intersected visible gold. Results in the remainder of the drill
holes were disappointing.
It has been postulated that the Darwin structure represents
the faulted offset of the Jubilee shear. It was this premise,
and the presence of unexpected visible gold in the previous drill
results, which led Citadel to persue an agressive exploration
program here in 1990.
Prospecting, mapping and trenching were undertaken on
a cut-line grid with 400' line spacing. The grid had been
established in 1989 as an extention of the main Jubilee grid. The
areas stripped exposed portions of the linear over a strike
length of almost 3400 feet. Approximately 1600 feet of the linear
was mechanically stripped, washed and sampled.
Correlation between observed dips on surface of the sheared
lenses -t-/- 45 degrees E, and dips approximated by combining
ExplSum90
surface information with drill data, show a marked difference.
The apparent dip of the linear (shear zone?) as a unit is in the
range of 57 to 80 degrees E. Ttyis' is considerablly steeper than
that of the individual shear'ed lenses within the linear. It is
also much steeper than the 35 to 40 degree East dip of the
Jubilee Shear.
The observed mineralization along the linear was in a series
of en-echelon lenses of relatively well sheared and partially
mylonitized material.
These lenses raked from footwall to
hanging wall at an oblique angle to the topographical linear.
The difference in strike appeared to be 15 to 20 degrees east of
the strike of the linear. The lenses also dipped less steeply
than the apparent dip of the zone as a whole.
Within the sections exposed, the linear was composed of
approximately 25% sheared lenses and 7526 relatively unsheared
interfingered country rock. The possibility also exists that the
topographical expression of the linear is at least partially the
result of a younger Proterozoic fault along the pre-existing plane
of weakness between rock units.
Visual examination and assay results would indicate that the
shearing and mineralization in this linear weaken as one proceeds
southwards from Ward Lake.
South of line 84 South,
the
topographical expression becomes so weak as to be difficult to
follow with any degree of certainty in the field.
Parkhill Mine / Trout Creek Area
In 1988, considerable stripping and sampling work was
completed in the immediate vicinity of the old Parkhill Mine. The
possibility existed that available gold ore had been overlooked
on or near the surface of the minesite. This scenario has been
documented in many different mining camps in Ontario. Apparently
there was a tendency to more-or-less ignore surface exploration
once underground work had commenced on the discovery vein.
To
this end, the stripping progressed outwards from the shaft area,
which is situated on the Parkhill 'discovery vein'.
Initial
stripping concentrated on the area immediately west of the shaft.
As the Parkhill mine was undoubtedly the richest of the McMurray
Township properties, it was hoped that the exposing of the
surface outcrops would provide us with additional information on
the nature of the mineralization in the vicinity of the mine.
The stripping did expose some excellent values in veins near
the mineshaft. However, it was not a single vein, but a series
of en-echelon veins tightly stacked. Although some spectacular
assays were reported from this work, overall grades were not as
high as expected. This fact, combined with the knowledge that
much of the area examined was directly up-dip from the old mine
workings, was not encouraging. The existing stockpiles were
also sampled extensively as a possible source of ready mill feed.
No further work was done in the area of the Parkhill Mine in 1988.
field
Prospecting and reconaissance mapping early in the 1990
season indicated prospective looking vein material to the
ExplSum90
l
south and east of the minesite. It was decided to strip a small
area on the south bank of the Trout Creek valley. The resulting
exposure gave most encouraging results. Old mine records and
physical signs on the outcrop suggested that the 'oldtimers' had
known about the 'Trout Creek Vein' but had not per sued it.
The
lack of clear title to portions of the area may have been part of
the reason for the apparent lack of interest in this very good
grade vein adjacent to both an existing mine and the main road.
The vein has been exposed over a strike length of 145 feet,
and appears to be part of the same set of veins that were mined
at Parkhill. However, it does not appear that this particular
vein was ever encountered in the underground workings.
At this
time the vein is still open on strike both the the east and west.
The exposed vein is up to 24" wide, white to creamy stained
quartz. One section averages 1.06 ounces per ton gold over 65 ft.
The east end of the exposed vein averages 0.994 ounces per ton
gold over 20 feet length. (grades uncut)
This vein exposure with its proximity to the Parkhill Mine,
combined with the significant geochemical anomaly to the north
and west of the minesite, results in a very interesting and
prospective target zone. Further work is definitely warranted to
delineate the geochemical anomaly, and to define the extent of
the Trout Creek vein, both in strike and depth.

REPORT ON GEOLOGICAL MAPPING
SOUTH PART OF BLOCK "A" AT DEEP LAKE MINE
SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS
Geological mapping was conducted on a grid cut in December
of 1988 and March of 1989 on a block of 5 contiguous claims owned
by Citadel Gold Mines, Inc.
The mapping was completed during
September and October of 1990.
The Deep Lake claims are mainly underlain by intermediate
volcanic flows and pyroclastics.
The majority of the volcanic
rocks show a pervasive
silicification with
little to no
associated sulphide mineralization.
The rocks are generally
massive with little foliation developed, and only local shearing
noted proximal to some topographic depressions.
Where observed, the regional foliation trend is easterly to
northeasterly.
A rotation towards the direction of major
northeast-southwest trending lineaments indicates some ductile
fault movement along the lineaments.
The geometry and relative
change in orientation of the quartz vein hosting the Deep Lake
Mine as the vein approaches the gully south of the shaft
indicates a sinistral sense of movement along that lineament.
Rusty gossan zones occur in numerous locations throughout
the property, usually proximal to flow contacts.
Sulphide
content, (less than 1054) is dominantly fine grained euhedral
pyrite disseminated throughout, occasionally on fracture planes.
Pyrrhotite, in smaller percentages was observed, as well as
occasional chalcopyrite in the larger gossan zones.
These zones
were the focus of much of the early trenching in the area.
Significant recorded gold mineralization on the property is
confined to the Deep Lake Mine vein, and is only reported visible
on surface at the gully south of the shaft. This location has
been covered by waste rock from the mine.
Given an apparent
sinistral sense of ductile movement along the northeast trending
lineament, the quartz vein would have experienced dilation as it
intersected the shear/fault zone.
This allowed for the gold
mineralization to concentrate.
Current assay results from the
vein range from trace to 0.012 ounce gold per ton.
Based on observations made during the current geological
mapping program, further detailed prospecting of the known quartz
veins on the entire Citadel Block "A" Property is warranted. An
emphasis should be directed to the areas where they intersect
major lineaments or show a dilatent character (noteably chloritic
partings perpendicular to the strike of the vein observed
proximal to the Deep Lake Mine) and minor rotations of the strike
direction.

INTRODUCTION
The 5 claims covered by this survey were staked by Citadel
personnel in January 1988.
Linecutting and a ground magnetic
survey was conducted in the winter of 1988-89 to provide a basis
for geological
mappping, prospecting
and possible diamond
drilling in this area.
Geological mapping was performed by the author under the
employ of Citadel Gold Mine, Inc. The work was done in September
and October of 1990.
PROPERTY OWNERSHIP, LOCATION AND ACCESS
The property consists of 5 unpatented mining claims owned by
Citadel Gold Mines, Inc. They are numbered as follows:
SSM
SSM
SSM
SSM
SSM
937795
937796
937797
937798
937799
Surface rights to the claims are retained by the Crown.
The attached location plan (Figure 1) shows location of the
claims, and indexes the individual map sheets.
The property is located in the central part of McMurray
Township in the District of Algoma and the Sault Ste. Marie
Mining Division. It is about three miles southeast of the Town
of Wawa and may be reached via the Deep Lake Mine Road which
extends east from Surluga Road.
The Deep Lake road is a cart
track passable by four-wheel drive truck in good weather. The
Surluga Road is a gravel surfaced road seasonally maintained by
the municipality or by Citadel Gold Mines Inc.
HISTORY
Previous work on this property consisted of intermittent
poorly recorded prospecting since the late 1800's.
In the
1930's, gold was discovered at the Deep Lake Mine where a small
mill and refinery was constructed.
Some gold was produced from
the mine, and the owners reported gold output from the refinery
in 1936.
Nearby areas were prospected about this time, as
evidenced by numerous debris-filled trenches on or near the
claims.
In the late 1930's and again in the 1960's and 1970's, the
Deep Lake Mine was repeatedly used by promoters to raise money,
based on the published production of 1617 ounces of gold and 2790

tons of rock removed from the mine by the owners in 1936. This
production was attributed by later promoters to the government
agency which published these reports, and the reports do not
state that all of the gold was derived from the Deep Lake Mine
ore. These past operators resampled the mine in the late 1930's,
and completed some stripping and about 7 poorly recorded drill
holes in the 1960's and 1970's.
Surface trenching at the Deep Lake Mine and resampling of
the vein in 1979 for Golden Goose Gold Mine Co. Ltd (Rupert,
1980) returned an average of 0.009 ounce per ton gold for 35
assays.
The reported assay values ranged from the minimum
detection limit (*c0.001) to 0.026 ounce per ton gold.
Geological mapping of the contiguous claims to the north was
completed by personnel of Citadel Gold Mines, Inc. (Plackitt and
Butorac, 1987).

GENERAL GEOLOGY
The property is underlain by Archean volcanic strata. ODM
map P.838 indicates that most of the claims are underlain by
felsic to intermediate volcanic strata intruded by a few dykes of
diorite with a similar compostion.
The Helikian Firesand
Carbonatite is a 4000 foot diameter concentrically zoned alkalic
intrusive, shown on OGS maps P.828 and P.244l to be located about
3000 feet north of the east end of these claims.
The principle magnetic feature of the area is the Firesand
Carbonatite and related lamprophyre dyke swarms which parallel
its contacts, or fill narrow pre-existing fractures within
several miles of the main plug.
The Carbonatite Plug has high
magnetic permeability, and creates a pronounced magnetic gradient
across the claims.
The peripheral narrow recessive dykes of
lamprophyre up to 5 feet wide contain variable quantities of
magnetite, up to 2056, and they create numerous magnetic anomalies
throughout the district. In the Surluga Mine, two miles west of
the Firesand Carbonatite, these dykes comprise about 5 percent of
the rock mass.

WORK PROGRAM PARAMETERS:
Grab samples were taken for assay purposes randomly over the
property. The geological mapping and sampling was controlled by
use of a previously cut grid. The Baseline and tie-line are
oriented at an azimuth of 0250 with crosslines at 400 foot
intervals (Az 1150 ), Total cut line is 2.8 miles over the claims
covered by the current survey. The shore of Deep Lake was mapped
using a small rowboat and airphoto enlargement for control.
PROPERTY GEOLOGY
The
Deep
Lake
claims
are principally underlain by
intermediate volcanic flows and pyroclastics.
The majority of
the volcanic rocks show a pervasive silicification with little to
no associated sulphide mineralization.
MAFIC VOLCANIC ROCKS
FLOW UNITS:
Two areas of mafic volcanic rocks were encountered during
the present survey, the larger being on L 16S near 22W, and
another single outcrop at L 12S near 13W.
These rocks are
massive, fine to medium-grained of chloritic composition. These
rocks may be fine grained gabbroic rocks, but no intrusive
relationships were observed.
INTERMEDIATE VOLCANIC ROCKS
FLOW UNITS:
Massive and porphyritic andesite flows underly the majority
of the claim group.
Porphritic Andesite is a predominantly
comprised of 1-50?6 plagioclase phenocrysts ranging from 1/16" to
3/8" in diameter.
Some units mapped as flows may be of
tuffaceous origin.
The matrix is fine to medium grained of
intermediate composition. Local low grade metamorphism evidenced
by biotization, chloritization and silicification are enhanced
near the contacts of the pyroclastics.
This characteristic is
sometimes associated with lineaments of variable strikes within
the north-south to northeast-southwest direction.
Foliation
features were rarely observed and maintained similar azimuths to
the major lineaments.
VOLCANIC BRECCIA:
This unit is comprised of fragments of porphyritic andesite
cemented by fine grained to aphanitic material of similar
composition.
The breccia
occurs in
close proximity to
surrounding tuffaceous units. The Volcanic Breccias are of both
pyroclastic and autoclastic origin.
Some may also be altered
flows which have been fractured as a result of movement along the
major faults/lineaments.
DEEPLK.GEO
TUFFS:
The tuffaceous units are mainly crystal and ash tuffs. They
maintain an
intermediate andesitic composition with barely
visible, well
sorted crystals.
Well
sorted tuffs with
plagioclase phenocrysts of up to 3mm are also present. Foliation
features are poorly developed but where observed conform to the
general strike direction of northeast-southwest. Some of the
plagioclase porphyritic flows may also be of tuffaceous origin.
FELSIC VOLCANIC ROCKS
PYROCLASTIC UNITS:
Felsic volcanic rocks are comprised of crystal and lapilli
tuffs, quartz-eye tuffs and pyroclastic breccias. Within the
eastern portions of the map area, they form a discontinuous eastnortheast trending zone of dominantly crystal tuffs and tuff
breccia. Felsic volcanic rocks are the principle unit underlying
the area between the Deep Lake Mine and the shore of Deep Lake.
Plagioclase phenocrysts up to 3mm comprise 30 to 50 percent of
the rock with occasional quartz eyes, set in a fine grained to
aphanitic ash matrix of felsic composition.
The pyroclastic
breccias are comprised of angular blocks of similar composition
to the tuffs set in a felsic ash and crystal matrix.
FELSIC INTRUSIVE ROCKS
QUARTZ-FELDSPAR PORPHYRY:
A massive porphyritic intrusion
underlies the central
portion of claim SSM 937798, along the Baseline south of L 0. It
is comprised of 20 to 4056 euhedral plagioclase phenocrysts, 3 to
5mm in size. Blue quartz eyes 3 to 6mm in diameter comprise 3 to
2096 of the rock.
The intrusion is relatively leucocratic,
containing an average of less than 536 mafic minerals, mostly
biotite.
MAFIC INTRUSIVE ROCKS
GABBRO:
A relatively large northwest trending gabbroic intrusion
underlies portions
of the adjacent Van Ollie Explorations
property (Butorac and Mills, 1990), and outcrops on the shore of
Deep Lake. Where noted on claim SSM 937795, it is medium to
coarse grained, hornblende rich and equigranular. An area of high
magnetic response defined by a previous magnetic survey (Rupert,
1989) under Deep Lake may represent an expansion of this mafic
intrusion.
Other small gabbroic
generally trend parallel
southwest.
DEEPLK.GEO
dykes occur on the property, and
to
major
lineaments, northeast-
LAMPROPHYRE:
A northeast trending lamprophyre dyke outcrops twice on the
shore of Deep Lake,
It is a relatively incompetent, coarse
grained biotitic rock with a thick weathering rind. This dyke
continues northeasterly, and is reported to outcrop in the gully
south of the Deep Lake Mine.
Other lamprophyres may occupy
northeast trending lineaments across the property.
STRUCTURE
The rocks underlying the Deep Lake property are generally
massive with little foliation developed, and only local shearing
noted proximal to some topographic depressions.
Where observed, the regional foliation trend is easterly to
northeasterly, dipping moderately to the south.
Some rotation
towards the trend of major lineaments, noteably the gully
trending southwest from the Deep Lake Mine area towards Deep
Lake, indicates some ductile fault movement along this particular
lineament.
The geometry and relative change in orientation of
the quartz vein hosting the Deep Lake Mine as it approaches the
gully indicates
a sinistral sense of movement along this
lineament {see Figure
2).
Chloritic
partings oriented
perpendicular to the contacts of the quartz vein also indicate
some movement has occurred.
MINERALIZATION
A total of 21 rock assay samples were collected and analyzed
during the current survey. The sample locations are shown on the
surface geology plan (back pocket), and assay results are listed
in Appendix I.
Rusty gossan zones occur in numerous locations throughout
the property, usually in close proximity to flow contact zones.
Sulphide content, (less than 1056) is dominantly fine grained
euhedral pyrite disseminated throughout, occasionally on fracture
planes.
Pyrrhotite, in smaller percentages was observed, and
occasional chalcopyrite in intensely gossanous zones.
These
zones were the focus of much of the early trenching in the area.
No significant assay results were obtained from these units.
To date, significant gold mineralization on the property is
confined to the vein at the Deep Lake Mine. Gold is only
reported to be visible proximal to the gully near the shaft
collar (Caylor, 1937).
Given the structural relationship of a
sinistral sense of ductile movement along the lineament south of
the shaft, the quartz vein would have experienced dilation as it
approached the shear/fault
zone,
allowing
for
the gold
mineralization to concentrate in this area (see Figure 2).

Anomalous gold mineralization within the Deep Lake Mine vein
has been confirmed by the present survey, however a best result
of 0.012 and 0.010 ounce gold per ton (Samples 4149 and 4156
respectively) is less than encouraging.

CITADEL GOLD MINES INC.
REPORT ON GEOLOGICAL MAPPING
HILLSIDE CLAIM GROUP
SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS
Geological mapping was conducted using a flagged grid with a
cut baseline and tie-line on a block of 3 contiguous claims owned
by Citadel Gold Mines, Inc.
The mapping was completed during
September and October of 1990.
The Hillside claims are underlain by felsic and intermediate
volcanic strata intruded by the dioritic intrusion breccia of the
Jubilee stock along the western boundary, and a quartz-feldspar
porphyritic intrusion of possible synvolcanic origin in the
northeastern portion of the property. The regional foliation and
bedding trend is easterly to northeasterly.
Some rotation
towards or into the trend of major northeast trending lineaments
indicates fault movement along some lineaments, notably along the
'Highway 101 Fault* where rotation is into the lineament trend.
These brittle features dip moderately, about 500 to the south.
A less obvious northwest trending, possibly conjugate set of
structures is present on the property, as defined by quartz veins
and mafic dyke trends.
Auriferous quartz veins having similar
strike trends to these structures, but variable dip directions on
and proximal to the property include the O'Keefe vein, the Smith
vein, the Stanley Mine vein, the Wawa Goldfields veins, and the
'Y-104' Creek Vein Extension. A northwest trending diabase dyke
and discontinuous gabbroic dykes show a similar northwest strike
direction. An areally continuous airborne magnetic high reflects
the mafic dykes through the central portion of the Hillside
property. This indicates a brittle dilatent zone may be present.
Based on observations made during the current geological
mapping program, further detailed prospecting of the known quartz
veins on the entire Citadel Hillside Property is warranted with
an emphasis on the areas of the northwest trending structures.
Where exposed, the O'Keefe vein is narrow, but high grade (up to
30 ounce gold per ton).
It is strongly and consistently
auriferous, but not well exposed. Having been relocated after
more than 50 years, the area requires stripping and detailed
sampling in order to properly assess the ore potential of the
vein.
In the words of T.L. Gledhill (1927): "The country near
the O'Keefe and Smith veins has been heavily faulted. Further
prospecting may reveal larger and richer veins."

The property is located in the north-central part of
McMurray Township in the District of Algoma and the Sault Ste.

It is about 2.5 miles northeast of the
Town of Wawa, and Highway 101 passes through the northwest
portion of the property.
The northwest corner of SSM 1134846
lies in Wawa Lake.
HISTORY
Previous work on this property consisted of intermittent
poorly recorded prospecting since the late 1800's. The first
reported discovery of gold on the property is recorded by
Gledhill (1927) as the O'Keefe Vein, Gledhill writes:
"Near the south shore of Wawa lake a narrow northwestsoutheast vein was found close to the Smith vein. The country is
very hilly in this vicinity, and the vein appears on the face of
a steep ridge that faces north and borders the south shore of
Wawa lake. The maximum width of the O'Keefe gold-quartz vein was
about six inches.
The quartz is crushed and shows pyrite and
chalcopyrite and some fairly coarse gold. The country near the
O'Keefe and Smith veins has been heavily faulted.
Further
prospecting may reveal larger and richer veins."

The Smith vein (Gledhill, 1927) strikes southeast, dipping
to the northeast, from approximately the southwest corner of the
Hillside property onto the adjacent claim group.
The O'Keefe vein with old workings comprised of three shafts
or pits of undetermined depth were located during the present
geological mapping program.
No record of the age of the
workings, or tonnage removed has yet been found.
A series of
exploration pits and trenches of unknown age have been observed
along the topographic depression trending from the O'Keefe vein
southeasterly towards the shaft of the Stanley Mine.
Gledhill's (1927) general description of the O'Keefe vein is
confirmed, with coarse visible gold being noted during the
current survey.
A complete description of the mineralization
observed
and
current
assay
results
to
follow
(see
Mineralization).
Historic gold production has occurred near the Hillside
property from three separate locations. The previously mentioned
Stanley Mine shaft is located approximately 800 feet south of the
Hillside property's southern claim boundary.
This mine was in
production during 1936 and 1937, processing 1963 tons at an
average grade of 0.043 ounces gold per ton.
Two adits, located about 1400 feet west of the Hillside
property, were driven by Wawa Goldfields during or prior to 1934
(Melkman, 1934). These mine openings are immediately south of
Highway 101 on the adjacent claims of Citadel Gold Mines, Inc.
The adits are vertically separated by 63 feet, and drift along
two separate quartz veins.
A total of 615 feet of drifting was
completed on the upper level, and 340 feet of drifting on the
lower. No record of tonnage or grade extracted is available.
A surface plan of stripping on the 'Y-104 Vein* (Melkman,
1934), located approximately one-quarter mile southwest of the
Wawa Goldfields
adits, reports assay values for the upper vein
ranging from trace over 24 inches to S262.85 (7.51 ounce gold per
ton, gold at S35 per ounce) over 18 inches. Foster (1989) termed
this occurrence the 'Creek Vein Extension'.
Another adit known as the Hillside Number 2 is located 350
feet north of the claim group. Rupert (1977) indicates the adit

GENERAL GEOLOGY
The property is underlain in part by Archean volcanic
strata.
ODM map P.2441 indicates that most of the Hillside
claims are underlain by felsic to intermediate volcanic strata
intruded by the dioritic intrusion breccia of the Jubilee stock
along the western boundary, and a quartz-feldspar porphyritic
intrusion in the northeastern portion of the property. The
Helikian Firesand
Carbonatite
is
a
4000
foot diameter
concentrically zoned alkalic intrusive, shown on OGS maps P.828
and P.2441 to be located about 1.5 miles east of these claims.
The principle magnetic feature of the area is the Firesand
Carbonatite and related lamprophyre dyke swarms which parallel
its contacts, or fill narrow pre-existing fractures within
several miles of the main plug.
The Carbonatite Plug has high
magnetic permeability, and creates a pronounced magnetic gradient
across the claims.
The peripheral narrow recessive dykes of
lamprophyre up to 5 feet wide contain variable quantities of
magnetite, up to 2056, and they create numerous magnetic anomalies
throughout the district. In the Surluga Mine, two miles west of
the Firesand Carbonatite, these dykes comprise about 5 percent of
the rock mass.
WORK PROGRAM PARAMETERS
The geological mapping and sampling was controlled by use
of a cut and picketted baseline and tie-line, with hip-chained
and flagged crosslines. The baseline and tie-line were cut along
HILLSIDE.GEO
previously surveyed east-west claim lines with stations every 100
feet. Crosslines were run at about 400 foot spacing (Az 3600 )
and flagged stations were established at 100 foot intervals
between the cut control lines. Total cut line is 6,500 feet over
the claims with 16,800 feet of flagged line established. The
shore of Wawa Lake was mapped using a small rowboat and airphoto
enlargement for control.
Grab samples of observed quartz veins
were taken for assay purposes at selected locations on the
property.
PROPERTY GEOLOGY
MAFIC VOLCANIC ROCKS
FLOW UNITS:
Two areas of mafic volcanic rocks were encountered during
the present survey, both near the east boundary of the southern
claim (see Plan 3-2).
They are massive to moderately foliated,
fine to medium-grained rocks of chloritic composition.
Some
silicification is present. Mechanical stripping performed in the
southeast corner of the property during 1989 exposed the volcanic
contact of the more southerly mafic unit with the adjacent
intermediate volcanic rocks. The northerly mafic unit may be a
fine grained gabbro. Intrusive relationships were not observed.

flows underly approximately 60
They are weakly to moderately

local outcrops of autoclastic
Moderate to pervasive silicification occurs, mainly proximal
to the topographic lineaments present on the property.
There is
a gradational increase in the intensity of silicification of the
flows as one approaches the lineaments.
A stockwork style
siliceous alteration l to 3 mm out from 3 to 5 cm spaced
fractures is present 100 to 200 feet from the base of the
lineaments, and increases to a pervasive silicification of the
volcanic rocks at and near the centre of the lineaments.
The
progressive siliceous alteration occurs along the major eastnortheast and east-west lineaments, and to a lesser degree along
the northwest trending lineament hosting the O'Keefe vein and the
Stanley Mine.
VOLCANIC BRECCIA:
This unit is comprised of fragments of porphyritic andesite
cemented by fine grained to aphanitic material of similar
composition. The breccia occurs adjacent 'to and interbedded with
HILLSIDE.GEO
•^r
the felsic pyroclastic units. The intermediate volcanic breccias
are of both pyroclastic and autoclastic origin.
TUFFS:
The tuffaceous units are dominantly crystal and ash tuffs.
They maintain an intermediate andesitic composition with barely
visible, well
sorted crystals.
Well
sorted tuffs with
plagioclase phenocrysts of up to 3mm are also present. Some of
the plagioclase porphyritic flows may also be tuffs which have
been incorrectly identified.
FELSIC VOLCANIC ROCKS
FLOW UNITS:
An outcrop of spherulitic rhyolite occurs north of Highway
101 immediately north of the Hillside property. It is comprised
of 60 percent spherules up to l inch in diameter set in a glassy
to microcrystalline matrix.
The lateral extent of the unit is
limited, and the true thickness of the individual flows could not
be determined. Bedding in the area trends approximately OSO0 and
dips 700 to the north, as determined from observed contacts with
the underlying felsic pyroclastic units.
This rock type is
uncommon, but it is known elsewhere in the Wawa area (Sage,
1982).
PYROCLASTIC UNITS:
Felsic volcanic rocks include massive bedded ash tuffs,
crystal and lapilli tuffs, quartz-eye tuffs and pyroclastic
breccias. Within the central portion of the map area, they form
a discontinuous east-northeast trending zone interbedded with
intermediate volcanic rocks.
Felsic volcanic rocks are the
dominant rock type underlying the northwest portion of the
property from 300 feet south of Highway 101 to the shore of Wawa
Lake.
Plagioclase phenocrysts up to 3mm in diameter compose 30
to 50 percent of the rock with occasional quartz eyes, set in a
fine grained to aphanitic ash matrix of felsic composition. The
pyroclastic breccias are comprised of angular blocks of similar
composition to the tuffs set in a felsic ash and crystal matrix.
FELSIC INTRUSIVE ROCKS
QUARTZ-FELDSPAR PORPHYRY:
A massive to weakly foliated porphyritic intrusion underlies
the northeastern 20 percent of the property.
The composition is
20 to 4094 euhedral plagioclase phenocrysts 3 to 5mm in size, and
3 to 3056 blue quartz eyes 3 to 6mm in diameter. The intrusion is
leucocratic, containing less than W mafic minerals, dominantly
biotite.
The porphyritic intrusion interfingers into the surrounding
volcanic rocks, and is of similar composition to some of the
observed felsic quartz-eye crystal tuffs. The porphyry may be a
HILLSIDE.GEO
subvolcanic body.
Some outcrops mapped as intrusive porphyry
have a tuffaceous appearance, however evidence of an extrusive
origin was not observed.
DIORITE:
The dioritic
intrusive breccia
of the Jubilee Stock
underlies the claims immediately west of the Hillside property,
and the northwest corner of the claim group. It is composed of
up to 80 percent blocks of volcanic material in a medium grained
dioritic matrix.
MAFIC INTRUSIVE ROCKS
GABBRO:
A number of gabbroic outcrops occur on the property along a
northwest trend from the southeast corner. The dyke l ike bodies
are relatively discontinuous, from a single outcrop to a maximum
traceable strike length of 700 feet.
The gabbro is medium to
coarse grained, equigranular and hornblende rich. The dykes may
occupy one or more northwest trending structures which have been
later offset by movement along the prominant northeast trending
topographic lineaments.
DIABASE:
A northwest trending diabase dyke outcrops along the road
cut south of Highway 101 in claim 1134846. The rock is massive
with a blocky jointing. It is fine to medium grained, black and
locally magnetic.
The dyke outcrops for a strike length of
approximately 1,000 feet southeast from highway 101, dipping
about 700 to the southwest.
The diabase dyke was not observed
north of Highway 101.
The enhanced magnetic data presented in the Dighem III
Survey for Northern Horizon Resource Corp. (1983) indicates the
diabase dyke and/or the gabbroic dykes described above are
continuous towards the southeast. A narrow area of high magnetic
relief of 500 to 800 gammas passes approximately under the
southeast corner of the property, and terminates abruptly at
Highway 101. The assymetry of the magnetic profile indicates a
steep dip to the southwest, as confirmed by field observations
along the road cut at Highway 101.
LAMPROPHYRE:
No lamprophyre was seen during the current geological
mapping progam.
As the lamprophyre dykes south of Wawa Lake
generally occupy northeast trending topographic depressions,
narrow dykes may underlie the streams and talus-filled lineaments
which traverse the property.
A strongly magnetic lamprophyre
dyke underlies Highway 101 immediately west of the Hillside
property, being identified during diamond drilling (Citadel Gold
Mines, Inc., Private Logs, 1988).
HILLSIDE.GEO
STRUCTURE
The rocks underlying the Hillside property are generally
massive with little foliation developed, and only local shearing
noted in the vicinity of some topographic depressions.
Where observed, the regional foliation and bedding trend is
easterly to northeasterly.
Some rotation towards and into the
trend of major northeast trending lineaments indicates fault
movement along some lineaments, notably along the 'Highway 101
Fault 1 where foliation rotates into the northeast trending
lineament. These structural features dip moderately, about 500
to the south.
A less obvious northwest trending set of possibly congjugate
structures having a similar strike direction but variable dip
directions, is present on the property.
The structures are
defined by quartz veins and mafic dyke trends.
The auriferous
quartz veins occurring on this set of structures on and adjacent
to the property include:
1)
O'Keefe vein, dipping southwest.
2)
Smith vein, dipping northeast.
3)
Stanley Mine vein, dipping northeast.
4)
Wawa Goldfields veins, dipping 300 to 400 northeast.
5)
Creek Vein Extension, dipping northeast.
6)
Trenched quartz veins at north claim boundary.
The northwest trending diabase
dyke and discontinuous
gabbroic dykes occupy a structural zone having a similar strike
direction to the area's quartz vein trends.
The airborne
magnetic high corresponding to the mafic dykes through the
central portion of the property may also be interpreted to
represent the presence of a continuous brittle dilatent zone.
MINERALIZATION
A total of 21 rock (quartz) samples were collected and
assayed during the current survey.
The sample locations are
shown on the surface geology plan (back pocket), and all assay
results are listed in Appendix I.
Significant gold mineralization observed on the property is
confined to the O'Keefe vein (Figure 2), where coarse visible
gold as wires up to 3 mm long and flakes 2 to 4 mm in diameter,
occurs in rusty sugary quartz with trace to IX pyrite. One
sample with visible gold assayed 30.97 ounce gold per ton (Sample
4139).
A second sample of the quartz from the V.G. shaft area
assayed 0.179 ounce gold per ton (Sample 4181).
The O'Keefe
quartz vein mineralization is variable within the three located
pits and shafts, with the middle shaft quartz containing 3 to 5?6

pyrite and minor galena and chalcopyrite. Assay results from
this pit returned only 0.049 ounce gold per ton (Sample 4182).
The most northwesterly pit, about 200 feet from the V.G.
location, exposes rusty sugary quartz with
trace sulphide
mineralization (galena) and no observed gold. An assay of 0,784
ounce gold per ton (Sample 4183) confirms significant gold
mineralization along the strike of the O'Keefe vein for a minimum
of 200 feet. The width of the O'Keefe vein where exposed is 4 to
8 inches, comparable to the 6 inches reported by Gledhill (1927).
The Smith vein (Gledhill, 1927), located approximately 400
feet southwest of the O'Keefe vein is composed of similar sugary
quartz, with a less
rusty
appearance
and
minor pyrite
mineralization.
The width of the Smith vein at 2 to 3 feet is
encouraging with respect to
potential mineralization along
strike. Assay results however are less significant, returning an
anomalous value of 0.008 ounce gold per ton (Sample 4106).
Other quartz and quartz-carbonate (calcite and ankerite)
veins observed on the Hillside property contain only minor
sulphide mineralization comprising mainly pyrite and occasional
chalcopyrite.
They are generally small, less than l foot wide,
and show a consistent northwest trend.
Only two small quartz
veins contain anomalous gold, Samples 4125 and 4127 taken from
the road cut south of Highway 101 returned gold values of 0.004
and 0.002 ounce per ton respectively.
A large bull-white quartz vein outcrops on the property
along the shore of Wawa Lake.
It is 2 to 3 feet wide, trends
northeasterly dipping near vertical. The vein has been stripped
above the cliff-face of the shoreline outcrop, and may have been
the target vein of the Hillside #2 Adit 450 feet to the
northeast.
Only low gold value were returned from this vein,
0.004
and
0.006
ounce
per ton (Samples 4134 and 4135
respectively). A narrow northeast trending shear zone about 75
feet north of the quartz vein dips 500 south, and is also weakly
anomalous, assaying 0.002 ounce gold per ton (Sample 4133).
It is apparent from assay results and observations of the
O'Keefe
vein
that
gold mineralization may have occurred
independent of sulphide mineralization.
The
abundance of
northwest trending auriferous quartz veins in the general area of
the Hillside property increases the potential
of all the
northwest structures noted on the property, including the major
trend of mafic intrusive dykes.
The structures show a dilatant
character which allowed gold mineralization to concentrate in the
quartz veins. Additional prospecting and sampling of all quartz
veins along these trends is required.
HILLSIDE.GEO
The O'Keefe vein is strongly and consistently auriferous,
but not well exposed. Having been relocated after more than 50
years, the area requires stripping and detailed sampling in order
to properly assess the ore potential and true width along the
strike of the vein.
To repeat the recommendations of Gledhill
(1927): "The country near the O'Keefe and Smith veins has been
heavily faulted.
Further prospecting may reveal larger and
richer veins."

SUMMARY
1.1
On Nov. l and 2, 1990, a geophysical survey using a VLF EM
instrument with a local transmitter was conducted to determine if
the Jubilee and Darwin Shear Zones would respond to this method.
1.2
Test surveys along the selected portion of the Jubilee Shear Zone
were unsatisfactory because of cultural development there. Power
lines, pipe lines, heat tracers, and similar metallic conductors
or low frequency transmitters create noise throughout the length
of this shear zone. In addition, there are probably strong
topograhic features which create EM responses here. No conclu
sive results can be drawn from this part of the survey.
1.3
A test survey over the Darwin Shear on lines 48 and 52 South
indicates that there is a weak anomaly associated with the shearzone there.
This anomaly is about the same magnitude as
anomalies associated with topographic or overburden related fea
tures. Careful interpretation of geophysical data in conjunction
with good topographic information might locate similar shear
zones elsewhere. The VLF EM responses to topographic features
associated with the shear were greater than the VLF EM response
of the shear itself.
1.4
The VLF EM method does not provide any better
good airphoto interpretation.

INTRODUCTION
2.1
Following discussions with J. Roth earlier in 1990, it was
decided to conduct a test survey to see if the Jubilee Shear
would respond to the VLF EM method. This subject of this report
is a test survey to determine this question.
2.1
The survey was conducted on Nov. l and 2, 1990, by Sears Barry
and Associates Ltd., who performed the work under contract on a
time and charges basis. The writer prepared this report as an
employee of Citadel Gold Mines Inc.

LOCATION ACCESS AND OWNERSHIP
3.1
The survey was conducted entirely on patented claims owned by
Citadel Gold Mines near Wawa, Ontario. More detailed location,
access and ownership information is available from Rupert (1989).

TOPOGRAPHY AND CULTURE
4.1
The Jubilee and Darwin Shear Zones outcrop along linear depres
sions for a combined length of 3.6 miles. The east hangingwall
side is typically a steep cuesta-form hogsback ridge with a steep
west facing slope. The west side is typically a moderate dip
slope to the east. Surficial material from 10 to over 30 feet
deep typically fills the depression, and consists of coarse local
boulders off the hangingwall (east) scarp, minor sandy ablation
till, and organic deposits. In low parts of the depression, the
organic material is thick wet muskeg. Several lakes and ponds
are present along the linear.
4.2
The two lines on the Darwin Shear Zone were selected to provide a
comparison of dry and wet conditions along the shear. Line 48S
crosses the shear at the south edge of an open swamp and pond.
Line 52 crosses the shear zone near the top of a hill. In both
cases, there is a 20 to 30 foot cliff face on the east side of
the shear. At line 48 and North of Line 48, there is conductive
infirm wet muskeg at the base of the cliff. At line 52, there is
negligible well drained non-conductive overburden.
4.3
The four lines across the Jubilee Shear are located south of the
Jubilee Mine.At this locality, there is a steep slope or cliff
face rising about 80 vertical feet to the east of the shear zone.
There is a muskeg filled depression and creek along the base of
the slope.
4.4
Cultural interference at the Jubilee Shear site includes an ac
tive 60 hertz power line to the tailings pond barge, and 4 drain
ed plastic pipelines, one with an inactive heat tracer. There is
a gravel road along the same corridor. All of this metallic
conductor/transmitter interference is along the trace of the
Shear Zone, or within 100 feet to the west of it.
4.5
There are similar metallic conductors throughout the length of
the Jubilee Shear from Highway 101 to its south end.
Audio or
low frequency transmitters are insignificant along the northern
3000 feet of the shear zone, but there is a steel grounded buried
pipeline in that section.
5.0
GEOLOGY
5.1
The geology of the Jubilee Shear zone is described at length in
Rupert (1989). It consists of a series of overlapping segments
of tightly recemented mylonite from 2000 to 3000 feet long. Each
segment is about 50 to 150 feet wide, and dips about 35 degrees
to 45 degrees easterly. In the area surveyed, the projected
outcrop location and width of the zone is well defined by drill
data, and is shown on the enclosed survey plans.
5.2
Most of the Jubilee shear zone contains less than 1& pyrite,
SEBA1205.R
and
m.F EM Test Survey
Page 3
negligible other metallic minerals. It is essentially composed
of mylonitised wall rocks, and is compositionally similar to
them.
The actual ore pods within the zone contain up to 4ft
pyrite, but none of these zones outcrop. The nearest one is
several hundreds of feet downdip from the northernmost line.
5.3
The Jubilee Shear Zone is tightly recemented by carbonate and
lesser silica cement. It is not particularly fissile, and is
unlikely to have significant ionic conductivity in pore spaces.
There are discontinuous O to 3.0 foot wide late breccia seams
along or in the fault which may be water filled.
5.4
The wall rocks of the Jubilee Shear zone are principally felsic
igneous rocks of a multiple intrusion, locally with large inter
mediate volcanic xenoliths. In the test area, they are intruded
by gabbroic sills which predominantly dip gently south.
These
gabbros contain some disseminated magnetite and minor sulphides
(possibly l to 2X, magnetite, and l to 3S6 pyrite) which apparently
created some IP anomalies during earlier test surveys.
5.6
The Darwin Shear is suspected to be the faulted southward
continuation of the Jubilee Shear. It is a less intensely
developed shear zone. It consists of short 200 to 300 foot long
en echelon segments of sheared or mylonitised rock along a 50 to
60 foot wide surface linear. About 25 to 35% of the rock along
the linear is sheared or mylonitised, and the balance is
relatively undeformed wall rocks. The shearing dips about 45 to
50 degrees easterly, but diamond drilling suggests that the
overall dip of the composite zone is steeper. This zone also has
late breccia faults and dykes.
5.7
The entire area is traversed by about 3 to S& of one to 5 foot
wide lamprophyre dykes of highly variable composition. Some of
these dykes contain up to 20& magnetite, and they probably
average over 5SS magnetite. These dykes trend northeasterly and
dip steeply. They are recessive, and their surface traces may be
filled with overburden.

GEOPHYSICAL SURVEY LAYOUT.
6.1
Available United States Navy navigation transmitters at Seattle,
Annapolis and Cutler are located in positions which are almost
perpendicular from the strike of the Jubilee Shear Zone.
These
locations would provide unsatisfactory electromagnetic coupling
with the shear zones. For this reason, it was decided to use a
local transmitter which could be oriented to provide a signal
with good coupling over the Shear Zones.
6.2
Sears Barry and Associates Limited, of Wawa, Ontario was selected
to complete the geophysical survey. Their personnel completed
the job on Nov. l and 2, 1990.

The transmitter used was a Geonics TX27 unit described in the
attached brochure. The transmitter cables were laid out on lines
near the east boundaries of Citadel's property. The transmitter
wire locations are shown on the attached sketch plan of the
survey grid.
The receiver was a Geonics EM16, using the
convention of recording dip angles as a percent figure rather
than angles in degrees.
6.4
Test survey lines were run across the shear zones on lines 8N,
12N, 16N, 20N, 48S and 52S. Each line was at least 1000 feet
long, intended to provide 500 feet on each side of the shear
zone.
A total of 6200 feet of line was surveyed, using
conventional VLF EM techniques.
6.5
The data were recorded and plotted as profiles and Fraser filter
ed numbers and are shown on the attached geophysical plans.
Fraser filtering was done with dip angles converted to degrees,
and with an observation spacing of 50 feet along lines.
6.6
Near the power line on the Jubilee Shear, readings were difficult
or impossible to obtain. There are missing data there and
profiles are based on incomplete data.
7.0
INTERPRETATION
7.1
There is a slope on the dip angle profile related to a decreasing
dip angle away from the transmitter. The slope of the profile
from this effect is about 2 % per 100 feet.
7.2
Profiles across the Jubilee Shear Zone are so dominated by the
extreme effect of the power line that no conclusions can be drawn
about the effectiveness of the method there.
7.3
On line 52S over the Darwin shear, there is a slight dip angle
anomaly coincident with the Darwin Shear. When the slope of the
profile due to the transmitter location is removed, there is a ,
10SS peak-to-peak amplitude difference between readings at station ;
19 and 20+50. The quadrature profile has a very weak rise over
the shear zone and extending over its hangingwall side.
7.4
On line 48S there is a much more pronounced anomaly which
coincides with the Darwin Shear and the associated muskeg
deposits there.
The peak to peak dip angle anomaly is 33
percent, after removing the slope of the profile caused by
transmitter location.
The quadrature profile folows the dip
angle profile. It is not entirely clear if the increased anomaly
noted on line 48S is because of the presence of overburden here,
or because of the presence of a better section of the shear zone.

CONCLUSIONS
8.1
The

sponse to VLF EM signal orientation. The magnitude of the re
sponse in the absence of conductive overburden or cultural
effects is very weak, and would be difficult to distinguish from
overburden and topographic "noise" encountered in normal survey
conditions in this township.
8.2
The test over the Jubilee Shear was

TX27
VLF Portable Transmitter
' In VLF-EM surveying poor coupling from existing VLF naviga
tion transmitters at times becomes a serious problem.
The portable VLF transmitter TX27 was especially designed to
overcome these adverse conditions. The TX27 gives a flexi
bility and versatility to VLF-EM surveying not previously
available. The ability to choose the location and orientation of
the VLF source fills a gap In VLF-EM surveying practice and
will permit a more effective use of this approach in solving
structural problems as well as defining more conventional
exploration targets.
The equipment consists of a VLF generator feeding into a
long grounded wire to produce an appropriate primary
magnetic field.
A portable power source 50 to 400 Hz, 115 V, 300 W (i.e.
Honda E300) is needed to supply power.

Results of field tests of the portable VLF source carried out In
le Cavendish test range are compared in Fig. 1 with results
btained using Station NBA, Balboa, Canal Zone.
urvey of 'Line B': Instrument facing west, primary fields, both
BA and portable source approximately parallel (±50) to survey
:angc of transmitter
, ho effective surveying range of the system in the Cavendish
)st range Is in excess of 3 km. from the antennae. At 3 km.
•om the transmitter dip angle readings were determined to ±3
ercent. In the vicinity of the two conductive features (1 to 1.5
m. from antennae) on the test range, readings were generally
epeatable to less than ±1 percent.
'he strength of the field produced by the transmitter Is a
unction of the length of antennae wire used, the depth of
onduclive overburden, the total resistivity of the wire and
ontacts with the overburden and ground conductivity.
Mher applications
i addition to horizontal field applications, the transmitter, when
ionnected to a complete loop, will give a vertical field which
nay have special advantages in exploration for flat-lying
features including, for example, coal seams. A minor modifica
tion to the wiring of the EM16 is required if the vertical field
Is to be used.
Field procedure
In field application, the insulated antenna wire Is laid out
approximately 1 km. from, and parallel to the structures to be
surveyed. It is grounded at each end, preferably In a damp area.
The length of antenna wire used is approximately one kilometer.
An EM16 instrument, with an appropriate frequency plug-in
unit, is used to record components of the electromagnetic field
as in normal surveying, with existing VLF transmitting stations.
The antenna wire, which is most conveniently laid out from a
back-pack reel, can be placed directly on the ground or hung
loosely in the trees. Where the wire crosses paths or trails, It Is
often advisable to mark It with flagging tape to prevent acci
dental breakage or personal Injury.
The grounding points should be naturally moist, If possible.
Good contact can be achieved using metal screen placed in wet
soil beside swamps, bogs or other standing water. The addition
of common salt to the contract area Is advisable.

Sampling Proceedures, 1990 Exploration Program
Citadel Gold Mines Inc.
v
The majority of the samples taken during the 1990 program
were cut from freshly stripped occurances. These 'panel' or chip
samples were located by tape-measurement,from a known survey
location. Location and assay results were generally plotted at
l" to 20' scale maps. Some of the scattered samples were plotted
on the l" to 200' geology plans.
Approximately 150 samples were
also taken as part of the mapping and prospecting proceedure.
These samples were located by grid reference and the locations
are recorded on a set of l" to 200' map sheets.
Sample Handling Proceedures
All samples were tagged in the field to avoid any possible
confusion.
Once documented, the samples were brought to the
lab facilities on site. Samples were dried if necessary, then
crushed to 1/4" by our own personel.
Care was taken to avoid
inter-sample contamination. In those cases where visible gold
was noted, or where high grade assays were anticipated, the
samples were not crushed on site. These samples were suitably
tagged and sent directly to the assay faciities.
Throughout the season, all of our standard rock analysis
work was handled by Bell White Laboratories of Haileybury
Ontario.
Samples were parcelled and shipped to Haileybury by
bus. Results were returned to us by Fax or mail.
Copies of relevent assay results are attached.
Those
assays which are not elibible for OMIP are flagged.
Whole Rock Analysis
Early during the exploration season, considerable interest
was expressed in the possibility of developing a small operation
within Citadel to supply auriferous flux to the existing market.
To this end, gold ore would be produced from one of the highgrade, low tonnage veins on Citadel's McMurray Twp. property.
This ore would be blended with silica and sold as flux.
Information
was required on the Si02 content, and
other
components, of ores we might produce.
A preliminary assessment was conducted by obtaining a wholerock analysis of 19 selected wall-rock samples.
These samples
were designed to illustrate the various geological units adjacent
to the auriferous veining. As all of the prospective veins are
very narrow (l to 3') the silica and contaminant grades of the
wall rocks become critical to this program.
19 samples of approximately 201bs. each were taken from four
different country-rock environments. The units sampled included:
Volcanic and Volcanic Breccias
Dioritic Breccia
Gabbro
Gabbro/Volcanic mixture.
SAMP90
060
These samples were subsequently crushed to 1/4" size and
riffled into two samples. Approximately 3 to 4 pounds of each
crushed sample was then sent to C^emex Labs Ltd. in Toronto.
The results of this analysis,.a* attached.

GEOLOGICAL REPORT
RESULTS OP MAPPING PROGRAM, 1989-1990
1.0 SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS
1.1 The 1990 Citadel Gold Mines field program included geological mapping
described in this report. Geological mapping coverage production
amounted to approximately 1500 acres. Figure one is an index plan of
the area mapped, and the results are presented in detail on maps in
Appendix A at a scale of l'^200 feet, and summarised on Figure 2.
114
surface samples were analysed for gold.
1.2 The mapping project was conducted simultaneously with other exploration
including stripping and sampling, geochemical surveys, and a review of
geophysical data. This report alos discusses this work, to integrate
it with geological surveys.
1.3 Geologic mapping hae continued to improve definition of subtypes in the
Jubilee Stock and their relationship to ore zones. The Jubilee Stock
is a dioritic intrusive with relatively massive core zones surrounded
by zones where randomly distributed xenoliths and inclusions range from
10 to 90 percent, and map units have been established based on xenolith
concentrations.
Mapping has shown that massive and physically compe
tent core zone units are associated with the better gold bearing parts
of the Jubilee Shear. The Jubilee Shear corresponds to margins of some
core zone units, and it appears likely that they acted as large scale
competent "anvil" blocks surrounded by less competent units, creating
local stress fields favourable for ore deposition. The north end of
the Darwin Shear under Ward Lake is at the east margin of a similar
core zone granodiorite, and this area constitutes a good exploration
target.
1.4 Mapping has defined stratigraphy within previously unsubdivided strata
on the south part of the property. A possible fold closure, at a
larger scale than the area mapped, and with the closure south of
Citadel's property, has been partially defined. Smaller scale folding
features within the property indicate that axial planes of regional
folding trend east-west at an angle inconsistent with this postulated
and probably older syndepositional fold.
1.5 The area mapped has been subdivided into several fault bounded sectors
recognised by abrupt changes in stratigraphic attitudes or patterns
across
faults defined by topographical
lineaments,
mineralised
structures or diabase dykes.
1.6 The near vertical Parkhill Fault displaces several ore-bearing struc
tures, so solution of the movement vector on this fault is of d irect
value in future exploration. Although the vector has been defined in a
more precise fashion than before, it is still not accurately determinDMGEOL90.R

MacMillan) to complete detailed geological mapping of the south part of
their property during the 1990 field season. R. Rupert and A. leroy
supervised this work as part of a.larger exploration project.
2.2 The defined objectives of this mapping project as set out in the
budget document for the McMurray project are:
-locating all prospects in the defined area,
-locating topographic features likely to host veins,
-identifying rock types,
-exlaining geochemical anomalies.
-locating additional stripping locations
-determining if there is any significant
regional
control for gold mineralisation, with attention to
particular structures identified from air photography
or geophysical work
-defining the Darwin and Parkhill Fault structures,
including the displacement on the Parkhill structure.
1990
2.3 Field mapping was done principally by Doug MacMillan commencing on May
16, and continuing until Nov. 9. Most of this time was devoted to
field mapping and related office drafting and reporting.
The area
mapped is defined on Figure 1. It consists of about 1500 acres and
includes about 31 line miles of picket lines cut between 1987 and 1990.
Report writing was completed intermittently to Dec. 31, 1990.
In
October 1989, some preliminary mapping had been accomplished near and
Southeast of the Grace-Darwin Mine by Roy J. Rupert, Alison Leroy and
Catherine Butella and is included in maps accompanying this report.
2.4 Most of the mapping was conducted on a grid with cut picket lines at
400 foot intervals. Controlled May 1990 leaf free air photography,
including 1"-200 foot enlargements, was used as an aid in locating the
cut lines, controlling the base map, and for direct mapping control.
Picket lines west of the base line were cut in 1989, and those east of
the base line were cut in the spring of 1990. Lines in the northern
part of the map area are older and in poor shape, from 1987 cutting
programs.
'2.5 Additional survey control is available based on drill hole surveys,
cadastral surveys and precise control surveys between the Surluga,
Parkhill and Grace Mines in 1987 and 1988 by C. G. Trivers O.L.S.
The
grid as plotted on plans has been corrected in the first instance
relative to the 1987-88 control surveys, and secondarily relative to
picket lines visible on air photos. Some cadastral points in the
southern sheets have been located relative to the picket lines rather
than vice-versa, so the reader is cautioned against undue reliance on
the survey coordinates shown on the plans, especially where mapped
evidence does not correspond to theoretical plotted claim boundaries.
Differences may relate either to errors in the cut grid, or to errors
normally found in cadastral surveys at the beginning of the 20th
century.
2.6 Stripping projects were conducted simultaneously within the area of

from
been
2.7 Drill logs and some available core have been used to improve the data
base for geological mapping. All drill holes in the map area for which
adequate location data are available have been plotted on the maps,
along with recorded geological observations of rock types at the
collar.
2.8 Geophysical surveys conducted over the property during the past 25
years have been consulted and used as a guide in interpretation, and
for detail planning of daily mapping work.
2.9 The data acquired and compiled during this survey are presented on
plans nos. 2-3, 2-4, 2-5 and 3-5 in Appendix A. Most of the data is
plotted at a scale of l'^200 feet on plans which conform to Citadel
Gold Mines Inc.'s standard rectangular engineering plan boundaries,
shown on Fig. 1. Also in Appendix A is Citadel's i "-1/4 m ile McMurray
Township compilation map showing the current geological mapping in the
context of the whole township.
3.0 LOCATION ACCESS AND TOPOGRAPHY.
1 Figure l shows the location of Citadel's property in McMurray Township,
and its relationship to the Town of Wawa.
3.2 The property is accessed via Ontario Highway 101, and by Surluga Road,
a seasonally maintained municipal gravel surfaced road.
Within the
property, access beyond Surluga Road is principally on foot or by boat
on Ward Lake and Trout Creek. Skidder roads have been created since
1987 to access areas trenched in that period.
The abandoned Great
Lakes Power right of way provides rough but open walking access.
3.3 Maximum relief on the area mapped is about 250 feet. The property is
on the top of a 5 mile wide plateau between the Michipicoten River and
Wawa Lake.
Drainage channels have low gradients, with extensive
development of muskeg and organic mud swamps.
3.4 The principal detailed topographic features in the area are a set of
northeast-southwest trending gullies or scarps at spacings of about 200
to 300 feet. Individual gullies and scarps tend to be about 10 to 30
feet high or deep with very steep slopes. Gullies range in width from
one to about five times their depth. Slopes are locally steep and
ragged, out of proportion to the total relief.
3.5 The
Jubilee and Darwin Shear zones are the other
significant
topographic linear depressions in the area. Several of the larger
hills are underlain by, or are centered along, diabase dikes.
i.6 Soil cover in the area is generally very light, consisting of zero to
15 feet of inorganic glacial ground moraine or other soil, and a thin
DMGEOL90.R
11990 Program
Page 5
but persistent organic soil cover. Outcrop is abundant, but only mod
erately well exposed because of the heavy organic cover.
Because of
the proximity of Lake Superior and the moist fog, heavy snowfall and
rain conditions, the area has not been cleaned of organic soil by fre
quent forest fires which have improved rock exposure in most parts of
Ontario.
3.6 Vegetation on uplands is mixed scrub forest of white birch, poplar,
spruce, balsam, ash and maple with a dense understory. McMurray Town
ship is at the extreme northern limits of the St. Lawrence forest type.
In lowlands, spruce and balsam forest of the Taiga type predominates.
Swampy areas are open bog or tag alder swamp. Because of the complex
private land ownership and generally scrubby nature of the forest, very
little logging has been conducted here since the 1930's when it was
intensively cut for local firewood requirements.
3.7 The area mapped is a part of and is within Citadel's contiguous proper
ties in McMurray Township. Citadel owns a gold mill at the Surluga
Mine site which was closed in 1989. The proximity of this mill is a
significant factor in evaluating gold prospects here.

GEOLOGY
6.1
Regional Geology
6.1.1
The McMurray Township properties of Citadel Gold Mines Inc. are
underlain by rocks of the Michipicoten Greenstone Belt of the Super
ior Province of the Canadian Shield. The Michipicoten Greenstone
Belt is typically composed of volcanic strata of Archean Age along
with subordinate amounts of coeval intrusive units and associated
sedimentary strata. There are younger Proterozoic intrusive units
in the area, principally as dykes.
6.1.2
The geologic settings of the Michipicoten Greenstone Belt and McMur
ray Township have been described by Gledhill (1927), Rupert (1975),
Sage 1981, Sage Turek and VanSchmuss (1990), Rupert (1990), and
Arias and Helmstaedt (1990). OGS Map no. 2220 included in Appendix
A shows the regional geology of the Wawa area. Table l lists prin
cipal rock types for the property.
6.1.3
The Michipicoten supracrustal rock sequence consists of three radiometrically dated cycles (Sage, 1985; and Turek, Van Schmus and Sage
1990) of tholeittic to calc-alkaline mafic to felsic volcanism. The
first volcanic cycle is composed principally of komatiites, basalts
and
rhyolites
(2889 Ga) along with
associated
subvolcanic
intrusions, and is represented in McMurray Township by the
basaltic sequence east of the Firesand River.
This first cycle
includes numerous narrow cherty, graphitic or sulphide rich iron
formations.
It is overlain by a second cycle (2749 to 2729 Ga)
composed of tholeiitic basalts, and considerable amounts of inter
mediate to felsic volcanic piles. Within the second cycle felsic
volcanic units, there are radiometrically dated coeval intrusive
units of similar composition. Minor cherty sulphide or oxide facies
iron formations are present in this second cycle and at the end of
the second cycle, significant Algoma-type banded iron formations

6.1.4
Arias et al (1990) has documented facing direction data which indi
cate that large parts of the Michipicoten Belt have been affected by
folding and formation of major overturned nappe structures prior to
imbricate thrust faulting.
6.1.5
Within the Archean volcanic piles, several major faults can be re
cognised. Locally in McMurray Township, the principal one of these
is along Wawa Lake. The latter fault may be related to the set of
southward verging thrust faults defined by Arias and Helmstaedt
(1990). It separates two structurally and petrographically distinct
areas.
6.1.6
Late Archean intrusive porphyry bodies are present in the Michipico
ten Greenstone Belt, and are concentrated with gold deposits along
or near defined linear deformation belts or shear zones. The ages
of many of these porphyry bodies are not yet clearly defined by
radiometric dating. A suite of late gabbros may also be of similar
age.
6.1.7
At the end of Archean time, the Superior Province in Northeastern
Ontario was intruded by the Matachewan and Hearst dyke swarms dated
at 2450 and 2040 Ga (Halls et al, 1990). These regional dyke swarms
strike at 145 to 175 degrees, with subordinate local segments at
strikes of 030 to 045 degrees. Many of these dykes coincide with
left-lateral faults of the McVeigh Creek Fault System. The relative
ages of the diabase intrusion and the fault movement are not
positively defined, but it appears more probable that the faults
predate the dykes: faulted unchilled dyke contacts have not been
observed. The diabase dykes and the Parkhill Fault within the area
of this report are apparently associated with these events.
6.1.8
During the Neohelikain Period of the Proterozoic Era, igneous rocks
of the Keweenawan Supergroup and slightly younger Carbonatite intrusives affected the area. Locally in McMurray Township, a few dykes
of probably Keweenawan amygdular basalt have been identified, and
the Firesand Carbonatite is a major structure east of Citadel's
property.
Abundant dykes of lamprophyre with variable composition
accompany and surround the Firesand Carbonatite. These intrusives
are temporally associated with the development of the Lake SuperiorBasin by rifting events. It is likely that many older faults may
have been reactivated at this time.
1 .1.9
Michipicoten Belt Archean rocks have been subjected to regional
metamorphism of intermediate greenschist to lower amphibolite grade.
The higher grade metamorphism occurs along the north and east parts
of the belt. This has been interpreted to indicate that Archean

Faulting (see par 6.1.4) and late Archean faulting (par. 6.1.7) may
have resulted in relative uplift of the northern and eastern parts
of the Belt.
6.1.10 The Citadel property, subject of this report, is principally under
lain by intermediate to felsic igneous rocks of the second cycle.
The l'nl/4 mile geological compilation plan in Appendix A shows the
geology of this property. Sage (1979) has suggested that these
intermediate igneous rocks developed in a caldera environment.
The
caldera is defined by the Jubilee Stock, a ring-shaped granodioritic
body interpreted to be a high level sub-volcanic intrusive. Outside
of the Stock zone a heterogenous and complex sequence of intermedi
ate to felsic volcanic flows, tuffs, coarse polymictic volcaniclast
ic rocks and horizons of iron formation are present.
6.1.11 The principal faults of regional significance within or
area mapped for this report would include:
The Parkhill Fault, a northwest trending steep dipping
filled structure with a definite regionally and locally

defined
The Wawa Lake Fault which separates two areas with distinctly
different structural styles and a petrographically different
suite of gabbros. Displacement, on this fault is indeterminate.
The Hillside Fault, a previously un-named northwest trending
fault through the Hillside Mine area in the northeast part of
McMurray Township which truncates and separates first cycle vol
canic strata from second cycle strata.
6.1.12 In the Michipicoten Greenstone Belt, gold deposits occur mainly as
structurally controlled veins along or near shear zones or signifi
cant faults which predate the late Archean Matachewan Diabase filled
sinistral faults. Because the ore-bearing faults are essentially
planar, they must post-date most of the folding of the strata in the
Michipicoten Greenstone belt. Most of the gold deposits are in
first or second cycle units, but a few are in the third cycle rocks.
6.1.13 Within the iron formations of the second volcanic cycle in the
Michipicoten Belt, there are at least three known deposits of folded
stratiform gold mineralisation (Holdsworth, Morrison No. l and Emily
Bay), and one stratabound occurrence (Bridget Lake). These deposits
may be older than the veins, coeval with the second cycle volcanics.
6.1.14 Locally within McMurray Township, gold deposits show spatial asso
ciations with the Jubilee Shear Zone, the Darwin Shear Zone, and the
Jubilee Stock. for more detailed discussions, the reader is referr

6.2 LITHOLOGIC DESCRIPTIONS
6.2.1
VOLCANIC STRATA
6.2.1.1
INTERMEDIATE VOLCANIC ROCKS
(Map codes TVAU,f,p,am)
Intermediate volcanic rocks are volumetrically the most prevalent
volcanic rocks in the map area. Between the Darwin Shear and the
Parkhill Fault they are massive intermediate flows with lesser pill
ow and flow brecciated units. To the east of the Parkhill Fault the
intermediate rocks are generally fragmental and polymictic.
They
are interbedded on a scale of 50'-200' with lesser amounts of nonfragmental intermediate rocks and a variety of felsic volcanic and
volcaniclastic rocks. The following sections describe several sub
divisions within this unit.
Intermediate rocks have been subdivided into intermediate (V) and
intermediate-felsic (TV) compositions by the writer (D. MacMillan),
based on weathered surface coloring and a visual estimates of feld
spar and mafic mineral content. Intermediate volcanic rocks are
buff to light green on weathered surfaces and medium to light greygreen on fresh surfaces. Lighter colored buff weathering rocks with
a greater feldspar mineral content have been mapped and grouped in a
"TV category while rocks with green weathering and with higher
mafic mineral content are included in a * V c ategory. In both in
termediate and intermediate felsic categories, biotite ranges be
tween T-12% with fine grained hornblende laths up to 10?S and dissem
inated chlorite up to 3% locally.
Feldsparphyric varieties are
common and contain subhedral crystals ranging in size from 0.5 to 4
mm and varying in concentration from S-15%.
Intermediate Pillowed Flows (Map codes Vp,f,am)
Pillowed units near the Nyman and Moody Veins may contain between 3
to 1056 amygdules and may contain up to 8?6 feldspar phenocrysts.
Pillows commonly have 1/4" to 1/2" selvages. Local interpillow or
interflow sediment lenses up to several feet in width occur locally.
Zones of subangular fragments, amoeboid pillow shapes, and arcuate
structures are prevalent in the pillowed units. Aphyric pillow flows
occur in the southeast sector of the map area. Elongated 0.5' to 2'
teardrop shaped pillows there indicate a west facing sequence.
The presence of pillow lavas in intermediate volcanic strata of the
second cycle is unusual in McMurray Township. Along with the iron
formations, they help to define areas where strata were clearly
deposited under water.
Massive Undifferentiated Intermediate Rocks (map code Vu)
At several localities, dark grey to greenish volcanic raocks have
been mapped. They lack identifying features which would aid in
DMGEOL90.R
i 1 990 Program
Page 11
defining their original style of deposition, perhaps because outcrop
is inadequate. These rocks may contain feldspar phenocrysts (Vuf).
Oligomictic Intermediate Fragmental Rocks (Map Codes VxTVu,mn, Vbx)
Oligomictic fragmental rocks are most abundant south of Ward Lake
and east of the Darwin shear. They predominate in the 2000' sequence
overlying the George Lake quartz porphyry and are interbedded with a
variety of felsic volcanics and polymictic fragmental rocks.
These fragmental rocks are similar in composition and texture to the
massive intermediate (Vu) rocks previously described, but contain 3%
to 35?^ fragments. Clasts vary in size from l mm. to 10 cms. and are
fine grained, subangular to subround and greenish. Vague fragmental
outlines, arcuate shapes and ellipsoidal forms of darker green zones
within lighter colored rock define some of the fragments.
Locally,
lighter greenish-white clasts with more felsic composition may occur
with and subordinate to intermediate type clasts. Locally these
fragmental rocks contain quartz filled vesicles. The development of
mm. sized biotite clots is common in these units and the clots
appear in part to be biotite replacements of primary minerals.
These oligomictic volcanic breccias are interpreted as autobrecciated flow units, produced by relatively quiet extrusion of lavas which
developed brecciated carapaces as they moved to their final sites.
Intermediate Fragmental Rocks (TVXVbx,ht)
Intermediate fragmental rocks occur on the east side of the Parkhill
fault as units up to 200 feet in width interbedded within a sequence
of other intermediate volcanic rocks. Individual beds are generally
greater than 20 feet thick but may be as thin as 2-3 feet. These
polymictic fragmental beds strike NNE and dip westerly. Other poly
mictic fragmentals occur west of the Parkhill Fault and south of
line 64S. Stratigraphically overlying the George Lake quartz por
phyry unit other polymictic fragmental units occur and are between
150'-400' in thickness. South of Ward lake intermediate polymictic
beds are interbedded with intermediate flows and oligomictic frag
mental rocks. These latter units strike NNW and dip easterly.
The polymictic rock units contain a chaotic mix of clast types in
cluding intermediate (V), intermediate-felsic (TV) and felsic (Tu,f)
volcanic rocks. Intermediate clasts include a variety of aphyric,
feldsparphyric, silty, biotite-rich, massive, hornblende and chlor
ite
rich or atnygdular types. Felsic fragments can be fine grained
aphyric to feldspar porphyritic in nature. Clasts generally range
in size between 4 mm and 25 cm in diameter but local boulder size
fragments up to 3 feet are observed. Clasts can be ovoid, subround,
subangular or angular in shape. Local shard shaped biotite-rich
clasts have been oberved east of the Trout Creek Vein.
Fragment
concentration varies from 15% of the rock to clast supported.
Biotite replacement of hornblende in amygdular fragments is common.
Locally, mm. scale reaction rims of hornblende, chlorite and biotite
DMGEOL90.R
L990 Program
Page 12
form margins about interiors of more felsic clasts. Most individual
beds are unsorted and poorly graded, but upward fining within some
beds near the Parkhill Mine indicates a west facing sequence.
Matrix supporting the coarser clasts consists of fine grained quartz
feldspar tuff with up to 20/6 feldspar phenocrysts and some biotite
grains.
The mafic mineral contribution from intermediate clasts,
which often contain between 5 and 20& combined chlorite and biotite,
creates an intermediate bulk composition for the unit.
The medium to coarse bedded character of the polymictic units and
the coarse fragment sizes in many beds indicates a proximal explo
sive volcanic source for most of these units. It appears likely
that they formed in or very near to a volcanic centre with signifi
cant phreatic activity. Where they are better sorted or are inter
bedded with iron formations, they were probably deposited under
water, but some may be terrestrial sediments. Some of the coarser
units have matrices similar to diorites, and may be subvolcanic
intrusion breccias rather than pyroclastic breccias.
6.2.1.2 FELSIC VOLCANIC ROCKS
Felsic volcanic rocks occur throughout the stratigraphic pile inter
bedded with intermediate volcanic units. Felsic units are generally
100 feet or more thick. The main ones include the George Lake and
Boyer Lake quartz porphyry units which range between 300' and 1800 feet
thick. A 2000' section of felsic volcanic flows and breccia is situat
ed east of the Parkhill fault between lines SOS and 52S. Felsic vol
canic units strike NNE to the east of the Parkhill fault and NNW to the
west of the Darwin Shear. Bedded felsic tuff layers on the east side
of the grid generally dip 45 to 80 degrees in a westerly direction.
The following subtypes of felsic volcanic rocks are recognised.
Felsic Tuffs (TXTTV,u,f,q,b)
Felsic volcanic tuffs (Tu,f,fq,b) have cream-buff, pinkish-white or
light brown-beige weathered surfaces and generally a light grey
fresh surface.
These felsic volcanic rocks have a fine grained
quartzofeldspathic matrix with between l and QK, b iotite. Felsic
rocks of more dacitic composition generally contain greater biotite
proportions, up to 125^. Feldsparphyric volcanics (Tf) contain 10 to
J.5% subhedral to euhedral feldspar phenocrysts which range in size
between l and 4 mm. Less porphyritic varieties (Tuf) contain be
tween 5 and 10% feldspar crystals. Quartz eyes may also be present
in individual units as up to 3?6 of l to 2 mm. subhedral crystals
(Tfq).
Bedded felsic tuff (Tb) occurs as narrow interbeds within the poly
mictic fragmental sequence of the Parkhill Mine area.
These beds
are layered on a scale of l to 40 cms. The beds consist of fine
grained tuffaceoxis material including feldspar phenocrysts, l to 5/6
biotite and 3 to 7/6 chlorite. Often the mica content within indiDMGEOL90.R
|1990 Program
Page 13
vidual beds increases from east to west indicating upward fining.
Bedding texture may also vary internally from massive bottoms to
laminated tops, also indicating"west facing tops in the Parkhill
Mine area.
Felsic bedded tuffs are interbedded with polymictic
fragmentals, intermediate to felsic volcanics, intermediate volcani
clastic sediments and local mafic to intermediate sedimentary rocks.
Felsic Quartz Porphyritic volcanic units (Te)
Quartz porphyritic rocks in this unit are massive to moderately
foliated. The quartz phenocrysts are between 15 and 25% of the rock
and are clear to blueish. Crystals are subhedral or locally euhe
dral and l to 6 mm. in diameter. The fine grained light grey quartz
feldspar matrix may be tuffaceous in appearance with some 0.1 to 0.5
mm. dark green angular lithic material present within the matrix.
Some phases occur with up to 12?i of 2 to 4 mm. subhedral to euhedral
feldspar phenocrysts.
Minerals present include biotite (2-5?O,
chlorite (S-5%) and sericite d-3%) scattered through the fine
grained quartzofeldspathic matrix. Within the quartz porphyry north
and northeast of George Lake, polymictic fragmental breccias (Tebx)
are included. These breccias contain 5 to 15S6 of angular to sub
angular,
or stretched, polymictic fragments up to 4 cm. across.
Local ovoid spherulitic textures have been noted. The George Lake
porphyry has a slightly stronger degree of foliation than the Boyer
Lake quartz porphyry unit, which may correspond to a slightly higher
laminar mineral content. The tuffaceous content of both units,
local spherulitic structures and the feldsparphyric felsic rock
units which underlie both of them suggest that they may be statigraphically equivalent.
These quartz porphyritic fragmental tuffs are apparently deposited
over thick intermediate to felsic flows, and may in part, be derived
from them. It appears probable that most of the qxiartz and feldspar
phenocrysts of these rocks are crystal tuff ejecta, more or less
reworked.
Feldsparphyric Flows Map code (Vbx)
Thick feldspar porphyry flows are mapped at the southwest side of
George Lake. They consist of fine grained pink, salmon or grey rock
with a light weathered surface. Up to 10/S of feldspar phenocrysts
to 2 mm. are present. The matrix of these flows contains rounded
inclusions of almost identical composition with diameters up to 9
inches.
These are assumed to be partially redigested autobreccia
fragments of the flow.
6.2.2
IRON FORMATION (Map code IF, or Gos)
Iron formation has been observed at several locations east of the
Parkhill fault in the eastern sector of the grid. It appears to
form discontinous lenses and has been traced discontinuously for a
distance of over 4000 feet from line 44S to line 88S. Every mapped
DMGEOL90.R
L990 Program
Page 14
iron formation unit corresponds to an electromagnetic conductor, and
vice versa (Fraser, 1983 and other surveys). Magnetic surveys and
electromagnetic data suggest a possible continuation north to Deep
Lake (see Section 9.0). The iron formation occupies a stratigraphic
horizon over the quartz porphyry in the east part of the grid.
An
outcrop of iron formation near the north end of the south segment of
the Mariposa Vein may represent an additional exhalative horizon.
Sulfide and oxide facies of iron formation are present.
Oxide
facies iron formation consists of well banded millimeter scale fine
grained magnetite and chert.
Chert content exceeds that
of
magnetite.
Sulphide facies iron formation occurs as massive rusty siliceous
rock with up 1536 biotite and chlorite. The rock may be weakly foli
ated or schistose. Local patches of feldspar phenocrysts occur.
Sulphide minerals include between l and 556 of fine grained pyrite as
disseminated grains, blebs and veinlets. Layers or veinlets of
pyrite may also occur in a matrix of chlorite, hornblende, biotite
and quartz. White to smoky grey quartz veins are common. Locations
of the siliceous unit on lines 60S and 64S have been extensively
trenched in past years. Surface sampling in the current program and
in 1989 indicated only insignificant gold content.
The iron formation bands appear to have formed near or over thick
flows of feldspar porhyry. They are the likely source of the exhal
ative solutions which are generally considered as the genetic source
for these chemical sediments. The presence of iron formation indi
cates that the southern parts of the Citadel Properties were at some
times subject to marine conditions.
However, the discontinuous
nature of the iron formations indicates that either deposition
occurred on very uneven and possibly near-shore surfaces, or that
contemporaneous erosion removed some of the iron formation before it
was consolidated. Subsequent diabase intrusives also contribute to
the discontinuous character.
6.2.3
DIORITIC INTRUSIVES (Map code D)
Citadel Gold Mines Inc. categorises a wide variety of intermediate
light colored intrusive rocks of Archean Age as "Dioritic Rocks".
Subdivisions of these dioritic intrusives recognised and used in
this mapping project are defined below. In fact, this category
includes a range from true diorites to granodiorites and quartz eye
porphyry granites. All rocks in this group are coded on maps as "D"
units with various subscripts where subdivision is possible.
They
comprise the unit generally referred to as the Jubilee Stock.
The
Jubilee Stock is not a discrete properly defined unit, but rather a
group of similar and probably coeval intrusive bodies. It's defini
tion has undergone considerable conceptual variation over the years.
Reference to the l "-1/4 m ile compilation map in Appendix D will show
its distribution.
Various parts of the unit define one or more

Page 15
diameters
of
The principal geologic feature in the Jubilee grid area (Map sheets
2-2 and 2-3) is the Jubilee Stock. This intrusion is quartz dioritic to granodioritic in composition and is itself intruded by smal
ler gabbroic, quartz porphyritic and feldspar porphyritic plugs.
Locally, this part of the stock is an elongated ovoid approximately
3000 feet wide and 15,000 feet long.
Sullivan, Sage and Card (1985) have published age date figures for
the Jubilee Stock. They date it at 2745 Ga. by U-Pb lead isotope
analyses of zircons, indicating that it is eogenetic with the second
cycle volcanic strata.
Core Zone Granodiorite (Map code Dq)
The core zones are a series of rock masses composed predominantly of
granodiorite with a local 400 x 800' felsic feldspar porphyritic
body.
They have only local zones of more than 10?^ volcanic xenoliths.
They have a maximum width of about 1500 feet near Jubilee
Lake.
South of Jubilee Lake and near Ward Lake, core zone
width
varies between 300 and 800 feet. East of the Hornblende and Jubilee
Faults, a unit corelateable with other zone granodiorites appears on
map sheet 2-2 prepared by T. Foster (1989). Foster records it as a
granodiorite zone with 5 to 10/6 xenoliths. If this is the same unit
as the one west of Jubilee Lake, then it is offset by dextral
apparent strike slip movement across the Jubilee and Hornblende
Shear Zone.
The core area north of the Parkhill Fault near Jubilee Lake is
bounded to the east by a hybrid terrain which has been subdivided on
maps into domains of lesser and greater xenolith content. The boun
dary between core zone and xenolithic domains is a mappable contact
which trends aproximately NNE at 020 degrees along the east side of
Jubilee Lake, more or less coincident with the Jubilee Shear Zone
which dips at about 40 degrees east.
Xenolithic Zones ( Map code Dq,Tf7Tqf)
The Xenolithic Zone (Dq,TfXTqf) East of Jubilee Lake contains about
25% or more of volcanic rock inclusions. The inclusions consist of
feldspar and quartz-feldspar porphyritic felsic volcanic fragments
ranging in size from centimeters to blocks 150 to 300 feet long.
The zone appears be to about 1000 feet wide. Local plugs of gabbro
and quartz porphry intrude this zone.
East of Minto Lake there is a volcanic xenolithic domain in which
intermediate and felsic volcanic fragments and blocks exceed 50?^ of
the unit's volume. Contacts between these xenolithic domains are
irregular and probably gradational.
DMGEOL90.R
L990 Program
Page 16
The chemical composition (PETROCH, 1990) of the diorites covers aproximately the same range as that of the volcanic strata in this area.
This supports the interpretation .that they may be genetically relat
ed, with the granodioritic rocks being the subvolcanic equivalents of
intermediate volcanic units. However, there is no positive evidence
such as penetrative foliation, that the dioritic rocks were involved
in folding which affected the volcanic strata.
6.2.3.1
Granodiorite (Map code Dq)
Granodioritic rock is located mainly within the Jubilee Stock and sur
rounding xenolithic domains. Even outside the main zones of mapped
intrusive rock units, granodiorite dykes are common.
Granodiorite
truncates volcanic stratigraphy south of Ward lake and invades volcan
ic rock east of Jubilee Lake forming xenolith rich zones.
These
zones contain centimeter to house sized volcanic fragments and rafts.
Granodiorite is grey to pinkish grey, fine to medium grained, subequigranular and massive. Generally these rocks are almost unfoliated
except in proximity to the Jubilee shear zone, where strong foliation
and penetrative fabrics related to mylonitization and shearing occur.
Granodiorite consists of 20 to 30?6 quartz, 40 to 5056 feldspar, O to
12% hornblende, 3 to 15?6 biotite, l to 4?6 chlorite, l to 3/6 potassium
feldspar and minor magnetite and pyrite. Local phases of quartz dior
ite occur with quartz content of 10 to 12/S and feldspar over 7 0K.
Quartz, feldspar and hornblende grains range between l and 4 mm. and
are generally subhedral. Fine and medium grained size variations have
been observed as contrasting phases with sharp contacts. Biotite and
chlorite have been observed, in hand specimen, apparently replacing
hornblende.
6.2.3.2
Quartz Porphyry (Map code De)
Quartz porphyry intrusive rock occurs as irregular bodies with dimen
sions ranging from dykes less than 100' x 300' to plugs 400' x 1000'.
In the area mapped, quartz porphyritic intrusions occur within the
Jubilee Stock and intrusive into volcanic strata near the VanSickle
Mine.
The principal locations where this unit is found are south of
Minto Lake, northwest of the Polishing Pond and near the Vansickle
Mine.
This unit clearly cuts the volcanic strata, and based on map
distribution, it also cuts the granodiorite. Contacts tend to be
sharp, without much interdigitation.
Quartz porphyry is very massive in texture, white on weathered surfaces
and light grey on fresh surfaces. Quartz eyes comprise 5 to 20/6 of
the rock, with significant variations in content over short distances.
They are 2 to 5 mm. diameter and subhedral. They occur in a fine to
medium grained quartz-feldspar matrix. The matrix is granular in
texture with grain size up to 2 mm. Biotite occurs as up to 5?6 fine to
medium grains. The unit has been called tapioca porphyry.

It apparently localises the VanSickle
Mine
ore
Feldspar Porphyry (Map code Df)
The largest zone of feldspar porphyritic rocks is located immediately
west of Minto Lake and south of the Parkhill Fault. Here the feldspar
porphyry occurs as a 1500' x 3500' ovoid shaped body. A smaller zone of
feldspar porphyry occurs within the Jubilee stock as an oval body of
dimensions 400' x 1000 feet. Local Df phases also occur throughout the
stock as dykes and irregularily shaped zones. The feldspar porphyry
intrudes surrounding volcanic strata and includes some rafts or xenoliths of volcanic rock. Contact relations with the granodiorite core
are uncertain.
Feldspar porphyritic diorite contains lS-20% feldspar phenocrysts as
1-8 mm. subhedral to euhedral crystals. Sometimes feldspar pheno
crysts are observed to be broken. Phenocrysts occur within a fine to
medium grained grey granular quartz-feldspar matrix. Between 3 and
biotite is present in the matrix along with 3 to 5Si chlorite and up to
"Z.% magnetite in local patches.
The massive texture and oval geometric form of the large Df body west
of Minto Lake suggests an intrusive origin. Lack of medium grained
pinkish color and equigranular textures, which is more typical of
intrusive rocks in the Jubilee Stock, suggests a high level sub
volcanic intrusive body.
6.2.4
GABBRO (Map codes G or Ga)
Gabbroic rocks occur mainly as irregular to oval shaped bodies, most
notably between lines 8S and 34N east of Jubilee Lake. In mine sec
tions, they are defined as shallow south dipping to moderately east
dipping sills or dykes which truncate diorite. The gabbro units in
the mine and elsewhere contain gold mineralisation and have been de
formed by shearing events. They have linear contacts which clearly
have not been involved in the folding which affected the volcanic
strata.
At George Lake, three dykes strike aproximately east-west and dip at
about 30 degrees south. These dykes are linear and obviously have not
been involved in earlier deformation which affected volcanic strata.
Gabbro dykes occuppy the same fractures as many of the northwest
trending (Minto or Ganley fissure type) gold bearing quartz veins of
the map area. These gabbro dykes contain l to 4 mm. biotite books and
clots within a fine to medium grained matrix of altered chlorite,
feldspar and hornblende. These dykes which accompany veins are vari
ably massive to well foliated.
Gabbros
grained
DMGEOL90.R
are medium green to green gray, massive, medium to coarse
and equigranular in texture. The rock consists predominantly
L990 Program
Page 18
of hornblende and one or two pyroxenes with subordinate amounts of
feldspar, chlorite and biotite. Mild carbonatization may be present.
Gabbro dykes are observed locally to have chilled margins up to 8
centimeters in width.
6.2.5
MATACHEWAN DIABASE (Map code I)
Steeply dipping north-northwest and northeast trending diabase dykes
are present in the map area. They represent 3 to 5 percent of the rock
in the Michipioten Belt, and locally are more abundant. This is a
significant extensional strain which should be noted in structural
studies.
The Parkhill Fault is the locus of the principal dyke in
this set, accompanied by subparallel dykes and subordinate northnortheast trending dykes which join dykes in the major set. East of
the Parkhill Fault and near Boyer Lake, there is a local curved dia
base or mafic intrusive body of indeterminate dip which lacks the
typical planar dyke form.
The dip attitudes of the northeast trending segments are not well
established.
Prior to the 1990 mapping project, the dyke segments
with this trend were not well recognised, and prior geological inter
pretations may have missed their significance, both locally and
regionally.
Diabase cuts across gabbroic rocks and gold bearing quartz veins. Near
the VanSickle Mine and elsewhere, dykes of diabase are cut by Lampro
phyre dykes and by associated Jubilee Breccia quartz veins.
Halls
(1989) has dated the diabase dykes at 26.45 Ga. and assigns them to the
Matachewan Swarm.
Diabase is typically black to dark green in color, fine to medium
grained and massive in texture. Diabase is hornblende rich with subor
dinate feldspar and local magnetite. Many diabase dykes in this area
are characterised by central bands of up to 2Q"fc feldspar megacrysts as
large as l cm. in diameter.
The Matachewan Swarm of dykes in the Wawa area occupies a set of left
hand wrench fault which splay off the Agawa Canyon and McVeigh Creek
Faults. Chilled contacts on the dykes, even where they are in contact
with sheared fault zones up to 5 feet wide, indicate that the faults
predate the dykes. This condition may be observed at the road south
of Minto Lake. There may be subsequent movement later, but there are
no instances of parallel faults known to the writers which disrupt
this chill pattern.
Matachewan diabase is magnetic, and wider sections of dykes are
recognisable from airborne magnetic maps. Airborne magnetic data is
useful in interpretation of dyke trends, and indicates an en-echelon
pattern which may be the result of interference between the northwest
set and the subordinate northeast trending segments.

LAMPROPHYRE (L)
Observed lamprophyre dykes are most' prevalent in stripped areas along
quartz vein systems where these recessive rocks are exposed. They occur
as dykes up to 5 feet wide, but are rarely observed on natural surface
outcrops.
The general trend of the dykes is north-northeast although
easterly and north-northwesterly examples have been noted. Dykes dip
steeply.
No significant offset has been observed across lamprophyre
dykes mapped in this project.
Lamprophyres are generally gray or black on fresh surface and weather
recessively to brown or brick red. They may have a pebbley fragmental
texture.
There is considerable mineralogical variation in them, but
they are generally composed of the following minerals, more or less in
order of abundance: Pyroxene phenocrysts, variably altered to serpen
tine and talc, biotite books or interstitial grains, calcite and mag
netite.
The magnetite content may be as high as 25?^, so an under
standing of the character and habit of these dykes is essential for
effective interpretation of magnetic surveys, and especially ground
magnetic surveys.

r6.3 STRUCTURAL GEOLOGY
6.3.1 Stratigraphy
6.3.1.1
South of Ward Lake a sequence of felsic to intermediate volcanic
flows and fragmental strata dominate the lithologies present.
Faulting along the Parkhill Fault and the NNE trending Darwin and
Jubilee Shears and diabase dykes divide the area into four prin
cipal sectors, described below and on Figure 2.
Persistent
marker horizons are not present to allow for definite stratigra
phic corelation across fault block boundaries.
However, broad
sequences of stratigraphic units with several texturally distinct
lithologies can be recognised. Thicknesses described below are
apparent thicknesses.
Bedding and facing attitudes in these
sequences provide some gross structural data indicating large
scale folding.
These folds are at a large enough scale that
final interpretation would require mapping of other areas to the
south to establish closures more effectively.
6.3.1.2
Boyer Lake Sector (Fig. 2)
The strata south of Boyer Lake and east of the Parkhill diabase
dyke strike approximately north-northeast and local dip attitudes
are 65-80 degrees west. This sequence consists of
-a basal unit of interbedded intermediate feldsparphyric
flows (TV7Vu,f) with oligomictic breccias (TVbx).

A wedged shaped block is located between the diabase dyke splay
towards Boyer Lake and the Parkhill Fault. Strata here strike
about 030 degrees azimuth and they dip and face 60 to 75 degrees
northwest. The block consists of a range of rock types including
intermediate pillows and felsic flow breccias as follows:
-Intermediate pillows are the basal portion. The flows are
massive to weakly porphyritic at hand specimen size, and
massive to pillowed. Apparent thickness is at least 800
feet.

Darwin Mine Sector
Between the Parkhill Fault and the Darwin Shear, the stratigra
phic succession strikes NNE and dips NW. It appears to be the
sinistrally displaced equivalent of the units northeast of the
Parkhill Fault.
-The southernmost part of this sector is underlain by a 2200

quartz porphyry and felsic tuffs.
-In the western part of this sector near the Darwin Shear
local felsic tuff units are mapped with a NNE strike rather

6.3.1.5 Sector West of the Darwin Shear
West of the Darwin shear bedding strikes NNW and facings and dips
are steep to the NNE. The sequence here is generally similar to
the sequence mapped in the Boyer lake Sector, but .it has the
reverse facing direction.
-The most southwesterly unit mapped here is a massive pale
salmon colored volcanic flow unit with oligomictic breccia
fragments (Vbx). Regional mapping (Rupert, 1975) indicates
that this flow is one of at least two similar ones which are
separated by a cherty iron formation which can be geophysic
al ly traced south to pyritic iron formation at an adit on
the High Falls Road. This unit is corelated with the most
easterly unit in the Boyer Lake Sector.
-Overlying the flow unit is a sequence of tuffaceous thick to
massive bedded quartz eye porphyries and breccias.
The
quartz porphyry sequence is 800 feet wide at the south and
over 1800 feet wide at the north. The lower beds of this
unit include some graded beds from 10 to 30 feet thick ex
posed on the northeast part of George Lake. The lower part
of the unit includes abundant fragments apparently derived
from the underlying flows. The upper 200 to 300 feet of the
quartz porphyry sequence is coarse breccia with lapilli size
to 6 inch polymictic clasts.
-The quartz porphyry is overlain to the northeast by a 1500
foot sequence of intermediate polymictic breccias, intermed
iate flows, intermediate oligomictic fragmentals, felsic
tuffs and porphyries. Individual mapped bed or flow thick
nesses range between 100 and 300 feet. Intermediate poly
mictic fragmentals which structurally overlie the quartz
porphyry contain a large proportion of Quartz Porphyry
clasts indicating easterly facings.
6.3.2
FOLDING
Folding at outcrop scale is not evident except in areas where iron
formation banding or fine to medium bedding in tuffs permits observa
tion of local contacts. In the Mariposa sector, near the Parkhill and
Mariposa Mines, numerous local folds with limb-to limb wave lengths of
5 to 15 feet and amplitudes of 5 to 30 feet have been noted. In most
cases, the axial planes of these folds strike east-west and are steep
dipping, nearly perpendicular to bedding.
In the sectors east of the Darwin Shear, fold deformation has not caus
ed much elongation of primary structures such as clasts. There is no
significant penetrative deformation there.
In the sector west of the Darwin Shear, there is pervasive penetrative
deformation of most clastic rocks, but this is not evident in the more

massive flows which contain fewer phylosilicate minerals.
In that

Plunges
are southeast, and are related to-pervasive but inconsistently dipping
eas-west striking foliations. Near and west of the southern end of the
Darwin Shear, north-south foliation directions are apparent.
The above foliation directions are not easily related to larger scale
folding evidence in the area: Facing directions (Figure 2) indicate a
fold with a steeply dipping axial plan striking north and south, where
as the regional foliation strikes east-west and is nearly perpendicular
to the fold. It would appear probable that the folds which reversed
facing directions formed as the result of forces prior to the regional
folding of the Michipicoten Greenstone Belt. It is suggested here that
the local fold with a north-south axis is a syndepositional fold creat
ed close to a collapsing caldera.
As discussed in the following section, most of the major faults and
ore-bearing structures in this area are planar and essentially unfold
ed.
It would appear that most of both the the penetrative and large
scale folding in the area occurred before most of the faulting discuss
ed in the following section.
6.3.3
FAULTING
- The principal faults in the Map area are:
The Jubilee Shear Zone
The Darwin Shear Zone
The Grace Shear Zone
The Parkhill Fault
The above list of faults are the only major structures with demon
strable evidence of significant displacement in the area. Except for
the last one, they are mineralised structures of some significance.
Other faults with obvious deformation, but without significant mappable
displacement are
The Minto B Shear Zone and
The Parkhill Shear Zone.
Mineralised Faults will be discussed both as planes of displacement in
this section, and later in more detail as individual deposits.
6.3.3.1 The Grace Shear_Zone is a narrow 3 to 5 feet wide zone of
mylonitisation and siliceous banding with local high and spectaculargold values.
Mining plans indicate a northeasterly dip of about 65
degrees.
This fault appears to separate two domains with differing
strike directions (see Map 2-5 and Figure 2). The north end of this
apparent discontinuity is at the Darwin Shear lineament, indicating
that the Grace Shear Zone is older or contemporaneous with the Darwin
Shear, and is probably the oldest, of the major faults recognised here.
6.3.3.2
The- Jubilee,Shear Zone has been plotted on Maps 2-3 and 2-4 by
upward projection of underground and detailed close spaced drill data.
It is plotted on map 2-3 as a series of segments trending at 030
degrees, with sinuous connections at a near north-south strike: Under
ground observations would favour plotting it as series of discontinuous

dip
of
The Jubilee Shear Zone, especially in the section with mine workings,
shows a close coincidence with the east contact of a massive granodior
ite unit and a mappably distinct hybrid intrusive granodiorite breccia
with abundant inclusions. Normally, a contact between these ma units
is not sharp. The sharp contact would suggest that there has been
movement along the fault to establish this sharp contact, or alternat
ively and less likely, that the fault was localised along the edge of
the massive granodiorite. This relationship may well be an ore control
and should be investigated further.
This mapping program has demonstrated that large scale structures such
as gabbro dykes, dioritic masses and major volcanic contacts are trun
cated at the Jubilee and Darwin Shear structures.
There are major
changes in stratigraphic attitudes across the shear zones:
Since
stratigraphic attitudes mapped in walls of the shear zones during the
course of the 1990 program are consistent over distances of several
kilometers, it follows that total displacements on the shear zone re
quired to establish such abrupt changes in stratigraphic attitudes may
be in the order of several kilometers or more.
Detailed description of internal structures and interpretation of the
Jubilee Shear character has been done by Rupert (1990), following ob
servations and concepts proposed by Dr. H. Helmstaedt, consultant to
Citadel.
The geometric data regarding sense of displacement are com
plex, sometimes contradictory, and indicate a long history of multiple
movement.
From that data, it appears to be a probable sinistral fault
with a thrust component. If this is correct, the dioritic rocks mapped
by Foster in the vicinity of Highway 101 may be the faulted and origin
ally deeper seated equivalents of the footwall granodiorite west of
Jubilee Lake.
Future mapping should try to refine and confirm this
interpretat ion.
No evidence of a steeper dipping and probably deeper seated shear zone
structure was found by mapping in 1990. Efforts to find a control
structure for gold mineralisation at a higher heirarchical level than
the Jubilee Shear have been unsuccessful. The Jubilee Shear appears to
be the highest, order or principal structure in the fracture system
which introduced gold in McMurray Township.
6.3.3.3
The Darwin Shear was exposed by stripping and examined in detail
in the course of this mapping program, and is shown on maps 2-4 and 25.
Leroy (1990) has described it. in some detail. Like the Jubilee
Shear, it consists of a series of left-hand en-echelon segments, and it
has a strike azimuth of about 030 degrees. Apparent dips of the shear
zone schistosity in surface outcrops are about 45 to 50 degrees east,
but drill information from holes to limited vertical depths of about
300 feet, by Dunraine in the early 1980's, indicate that the average
dip of the zone is significantly steeper, at 65 to possibly 75 degrees.
DMGEOL90.R

Page 25
Darwin shear kinematic indicators such as C\S foliations and drag fold
ing suggest this fault has a left-lateral thrust shear sense. This is
identical to the shear sense proposed by Helmstaedt (1988) for the
Jubilee shear zone. Although the Darwin and Jubilee Shear Zones are
different in dip, the differences may be explained in terms of flatten
ing of the fault at depth, or in terms of shear deflection and dissipa
tion away from the Jubilee Stock into less competent rocks.
Fault gouge seams and associated Jubilee Breccia type quartz veins are
noted at several locations along the Darwin Shear Zone, similar to the
Jubilee Breccia zones in the Jubilee Shear. The topographical linea
ment associated with the Darwin Shear may be more related to erosion
along these late re-activated Neohelikian fault phenomena than to ero
sional differences between the recemented shear zone rock and wall
rocks.
Drag folding in the Darwin Shear was noted. Quartz veins and stringers
are commonly 'S' drag folded within the Darwin shear.
The development of schistosity and mylonitisation in the Darwin Shear
zone is less intense than in the Jubilee Shear, and decreases south
ward.
This may be related to changes in wall rock character. At its
north end under Ward lake, the shear cuts through dioritic rocks, but
at its south end it is in less competent volcanic pyroclastic strata
with higher proportions of phylosilicate minerals. The footwall pyro
clastic rocks in the south part show weak subparallel schistosity over
prints on the regional east-west schistosity for distances of 500 to
1000 feet west of the Darwin Shear. The shear zone appears to dissi
pate into the country rocks there.
If the presence of dioritic. wall rocks is an ore control, as suggested
in the above paragraphs describing the Jubilee Shear, then the Ward
lake segment of the Darwin Shear is a prospective drill target.
6.3.3.4 The Mi"to B Fault appears to be a splay off the Jubilee Shear. It
has a steeper dip and has been observed to intersect the Jubilee Shear
on the 7th level of the Surluga Mine. Stripping and mapping during
1990 indicates that this shear dies out about 2000 feet north of the
Minto No. 2 Shaft. Unless it has other undiscovered offset segments
which continue northwards, it is a subordinate structure to the Jubilee
Shear, rather than vice versa. Based on mapping data from the current
1990 program, there is no evidence that it is a deep seated master
control structure as had been postulated earlier. However the possi
bility still exists that offset shear segments connect it with the
Gulch Zone mapped by Foster (1988) on sheet 3-3, and that it may be a
more important structure.
The Minto B Fault is mineralised with sporadic but very anomalous gold
values, documented on Citadel Mine longitudinal sections of the Minto
B Fault.
The Gulch Zone is likewise mineralised.
Gold values in
nearby veins along this trend have been mined at the Minto Mine, Ganley
Vein, Wawa Goldfieids Mine and the Hillside No. 2 Adit. In the Minto

the
6.3.3.5 The Parkhill Shear Zone is one of a relatively narrow and sinuous
set of narrow mineralised and sheared zones which host locally spectac
ular high grade gold veins. They are described in more detail in later
sections. Movement on these fault zones is not apparent: Stratigraph
ic units are essentially continuous across these sheared veins.
Mapping near the Parkhill Mine indicates the presence of at least four
or more veins in this set. More detailed work is needed to resolve the
inter-relationships of these veins in a three dimensional sense.
Fu
ture workers should direct some attention to this as it may assist in
locating repetitions of the Parkhill Mine ore zones.
6.3.3.6
The Parkhill Fault is a late Archean Fault which truncates all
earlier Archean structures in the area, including all gold bearing
structures near it. It is one of a regional set of at least 10 north
east trending faults related to the McVeigh Creek Fault (see OGS map
2220). These faults all have left hand displacements of a few hundreds
of feet to six kilometers. Associated vertical displacemnts are not
clearly defined, but a number of lines of evidence from regional mapp
ing (metamorphic grade, and differences in relative displacement of
north and south dipping structures) suggest that the east sides of
these faults were uplifted. Regionally, most of these faults are
occupied by diabase dykes of the Matachewan swarm (Halls 1990).
Mapping of the Parkhill Fault in this program has confirmed that appar
ent displacements are left hand and in the order of 1400 to 2000 feet,
depending on the marker selected for displacement.
Figxire 3 shows markers on both sides of the fault, and shows 3 possible
and rather different geometric solutions for the true fault movement
vector.
The discrepancy between the solutions is explicable by the fact that
the strata are very lensy, and perhaps because the markers are not very
distinctively reliable. The difference in apparent dip of the Jubilee
and Darwin Shears makes them unsatisfactory as comparable markers: The
Darwin Shear may flatten with depth until it has a dip equivalent to
the Jubilee Shear, as commonly happens with thrust structures. With so
many variables, any any geometric solution for the true displacement on
the Parkhill Fault is unreliable. All 3 solutions indicate that the
horizontal component is left hand, between 1950 and 2800 feet, and that
the southwest side of the Parkhill Fault moved between 600 feet up and
1500 feet down.
Future mappers should make more efforts to find additional marker units
to assist in solving the geometry of movement on this fault.
Since
these faults appear to be non-rotational, it posible that regional
mapping outside of Citadel's properties will be as successful as mapp
ing on Citadel's property. More precise solution of this fault would

improve the drill target for the faulted downward continuation of
Parkhill Mine ore shoots.
the
6.3.3.7
The diabase dykes in the area mapped are related to the same set
of faults as the Parkhill Fault. They occupy these northeast trending
faults as steep dipping dykes with thicknesses variable from zero to
300 feet. Mapping and review of airborne magnetic data indicate that
there is tendency for them to consist of left hand en echelon segments
with individual strike azimuths from zero to 5 degrees less than the
composite trends. Detailed mapping on this property and elsewhere in
the region indicates that the principal northwest trending set is ac
companied by frequent short and minor interconnecting dykes with ir
regular or arcuate strikes in the range from zero to 70 degrees.
This
is consistent with extensional dyke infilling of fractures on NW trend
ing faults concurrent with left hand displacement on the faults. It is
probable that the fault displacement occurred slightly before or simul
taneously with the radiometrically dated emplacement of the dykes at
the end of Archean time.
6.3.3.8 lamprophyre dykes are observed to transect diabase dykes in strip
ped areas near the VanSickle Mine and the Parkhill Mine and the Minto
Mine.
At the latter location, they are accompanied by "Jubilee Brec
cia" consisting of vein rims of cream-yellow calcite infilled in turn
by open space filling coarsely crystalline smoky quartz.
This dates
the Lamprophyre and the Jubilee Breccias as post-Archean, confirming
the interpretation that they are temporally associated with the Proter
ozoic (about 1030 Ga.) Firesand Carbonatite.

GOLD BEARING SHEAR ZONES
Gold is found in several mineralised shear sones on the Citadel
Property. These shear zones c onsist of narrow to wide sones of weakly
to strongly mylonitised rock, and their structural attitudes occupy a
rather narrow geometric range. The range in attitudes of these sheared
ore bearing veins is shown on Fig. 4.
The principal gold bearing
shear zones on the property are:

Jubilee Shear
The Jubilee Shear Zone is aproximately 30 to 50 meters wide near the
Surluga and Jubilee Mines. Sheared rock is foliated to mylonitic rock
with quartz and carbonate stringers or folded gold bearing veins. Gold
bearing veins are a (pre-shearing) set of an older generation of grey
sugary auriferous stringers and adjacent mylonitised sericitic rock. A
younger generation of quartz-tourmaline 'Pinto quartz' and an even
younger generation of Jubilee Breccia Quartz are both practically
barren of gold.
The surface trace of the Jubilee Shear Zone is shown on the geological
maps in Appendix A. Structural attitudes within the Jubilee Shear have
been described in detail by Rupert (1990) and Rupert and Leroy (1990).
The reader is referred to these reports for more detailed information.
The structures described there are compatible with left-lateral oblique
thrust movement.
7.2.2
Darwin Shear
The Darwin Shear is shown on maps 2-4 and 2-5. It can be traced for
over 2.5 km along a well defined recessive topographic linear.
The
over-all azimuth of the deformation zone is aproximately 030 degrees
and the dip determined from limited relatively shallow drill holes is
between 60 and 75 degrees east. Gentle flexures or offsets are evident
along the strike, and can be interpreted as either "S" shaped flexures
or en echelon offsets between segments. The latter interpretation is
preferred because it is observable in the stripped area south of Ward
Lake. Internally the shear is composed of numerous smaller segments of
foliated rock of limited lateral extent, generally less than 100 feet
in strike length and 15 feet in thickness. Individual segments within
the main zone strike between 028 and 037 degrees and dip between 42 and
48 degrees east.
"S' foliations within the sheared lenses have a sig
moidal shape and strike from 030 to 050 degrees and dip 50 to 75 de
grees east. The steeper dips and lower azimuth strike attitudes repre
sent the sigmoidal tails, and the lower dips and higher strike azimuths
represent the less rotated S foliations. Kinematic interpretation of
these relationships indicates that shear movement was left hand and
reverse.
The individual segments of sheared rock are lozenges, sepa
rated by relatively undeformed bands of wall rock. At stripped areas
between lines 48S and 56S, undeformed rock represents up to 70I& of the
deformation zone.
Sheared rock in the Darwin Shear is generally fissile with 1-6 mm.
cleavage partings which are chloritic (^.:15^o) and/or micaceous (sericite
and/or biotite < 7/fc). Foliated to mylonitized rock of a more felsic
(probably granodioritic) composition also is present. Local zones of
cm. scale pseudotachylite veinlets and Jubilee breccias are present.
These are fine grained to aphanitic, light to dark grey rock which may
have rimmed margins. The shear zone is slightly but pervasively carbonatised. Small sugary quartz veinlets, blebs and pods occur locally
and contain less than 3/6 of disseminated pyrite.

weathering may be associated with sulphide. Salmon colored staining is
present along thin hairline fractures throughout the shear zone.
In 1981 and 1982 Dunraine Mines Limited drilled 18 drill holes to test
the Darwin shear along a strike length of 3000 feet. Except for two
local and very narrow intersections with visible gold yielding assay
values of up to 0.46 ounces per ton gold across 2.1 feet (d.h. #81-8)
results were poor.
1990 surface sampling along the stripped shear
zone was similarly dissappointing: the best values were 0.07 oz./s.ton
in quartz stringers near line 40S.
7.2.3
PARKHILL AND NYMAN VEIN SETS
The Parkhill Vein set includes the Parkhill Vein, Mill Vein, Trout
Creek Vein, the New Parkhill Vein, and the Vansickle Vein. These were
not previously distinguished as separate veins, or were considered as
faulted segments of one vein. The Moody vein and the Nyman Vein are
located west of the Parkhill Fault and may be the faulted equivalent of
the Parkhill Vein Set. All of these veins have the following common
features:
-NNE trending, SSE dipping (25 to 45 degrees) shear planes
-subordinate quartz-bearing quartz veins about l to 6 inches wide
which splay and extend only about 20 feet into the footwall and
dip about 45 to 60 degrees north.
-The north dipping splays consist of coarse glassy gold bearing
quartz, but the veins in the sheared zones consist of sugary gold
bearing quartz with a crushed appearance. They appear to have the
same origin.
-quartz veins parallel to the sheared planes have limited lateral
extent, usually less than 125 feet strike length.
-low sulphide content. ^Z, pyrite.
-veins are in shear planes with shearing up t o 6 feet wide.
the
shear zones are more continuous than the veins.
-alteration envelopes around the veins may be present, consisting,
of zones where biotite grains or books may be slightly larger than
in the unaltered wall rocks (Veldhuyzen, 1986)
The Parkhill Veins include number of separate narrow discontinous
shears of variable strike length which splay from one another or paral
lel one another. Sheared zones consist of fissile to recemented foliat
ed and mylonitic rock. Veins and foliation within the shear are paral
lel, but. are arranged in a left-hand en-echelon pattern along the shearzone, at. a very low angle to the over-all trend of the shear. This is
interpreted to be the result of a left hand shearing couple.
A detailed description of each vein follows.
Parkhill Vein
At the Parkhill Mine, veins exposed at surface are l to 10 feet in
horizontal width and 15 to 100 feet in strike length. These veins
strike at about 065 degrees, and dip 30 to 50 degrees SSE.

Trout Creek Vein
The Trout Creek vein as delineated by 1990 stripping has strike length
of at least 150 feet, open to the west. Vein widths pinch and swell
between 4 and 20 cm.
Sampling in 1990 has indicated average values up
to 1.06 oz./s-ton Au (uncut) for 65 feet strike length and 0.994
oz./ton Au (uncut) for 20 feet of strike length. The vein strikes 070
degrees and dips about 45 to 50 degrees south. The main veins are
enveloped by a zone of sheared rock between 0.5 and 4 feet thick which
consists of fissile foliated sheared wall rock. Biotite books from a
few mm. to 4.0 mm. across are present in this sheared zone.
Nyman Vein
The Nyman Vein consists of two veins 100 to 200 feet long and 6 to 12
cm. wide on Claim SSM 183. These quartz veins strike 080 degrees azi
muth and dip 40 degrees south, and are offset about 50 feet to the
right of one another en echelon. Both Veins are widest at their west
ends and pinch out eastwards. The further projection of the trend is
under an east-west segment of Trout Creek. 1000 feet to the east,
across the creek, another vein was re-exposed by stripping in 1990. It
has the same attitxide, but is nearly barren of gold values.
Quartz in the Nyman Vein is fine to medium grained and semi-granular to
sugary, translucent white to grey and has a vitreous lustre in places.
Up to 2S& fine grained pyrite and traces of arsenopyrite, and rare
specks of visible gold are present. Surface sampling in 1987 yielded
values averaging 0.554 oz. gold per short ton across l foot for 110
feet of strike length, and and 0.58 oz./ton Au across l foot for 50
feet of strike length.
The Nyman vein occurs in a sequence of pillowed feldsparphyric amygdular intermediate volcanic rocks. Marginal to veins are l to 5 footzones of sheared wall rocks which consist of foliated wall rock with
books of fine to medium grained biotite.
The east extension of the Nyman Vein is on claim nos. SSM 2401, 2402
and 2403. Review of the register for this parcel indicates that the
boundary between the discovery area of the Nyman vein and its eastern
extension was not a friendly fence. The owners of SSM 2401 to 2403
disputed ownership with the representatives of the owners of SSM 183,
and the ownership of 2401 to 2403 was sp] it 50?S and 50SS between owners
who may also have been litigatious among themselves. Historically the
2401 to 2403 claims may not have enjoyed the sort of exploration they
deserved.

Moody Vein
The Moody vein consists of a number of discontinous veins of limited
strike length and differing gold content. The principal gold bearing
vein in the Moody zone is 15 feet in length and 2 feet wide.
It
strikes at 070 degrees and dips SSE at 40 degrees. Quartz is fine to
medium grained granular to sugary, white to smoke grey with patches of
pink staining. Surface sampling in 1987 yielded trace to 0.02 oz./ton
values of gold with two assays of 0.786 and 1.09 oz/ton Au.
Figure 3 indicates that the Moody Vein may be the updip manifestation
of the faulted extension of the Parkhill Sheared Vein. This was a very
rich structure and is a tempting drill target. As indicated on the
section on figure 3, a fence of two or three close spaced drill holes
(at about 150 foot spacing or less) collared north of the Nyman east
extension and drilled north at about 65 or 70 degrees would effectively
follow down the line of possible locations of the displaced Parkhill
main Ore shoot. While this linear feature may be an artifact' of the
geometric techniques used on Figure 3, it is at present the best bet to
locate the extension of this rich ore zone.
7.2.4
MARIPOSA VEIN SET
The Mariposa vein set shown on maps 2-3 and 2-4 includes several veins
near and south of the Mariposa Shaft on claims SSM 3470, SSM 3471 and
SSM 3375 as well as the Road Vein on claim Y 463.
A vein with the
same attitude is described by Veldhuyzen (1987) underground in the
Parkhill Mine where it. was known as the No. 4 Vein and was mined to
produce some low grade ore. The Minto Vein extending across claims
3134 and 3135 is part of the same set. All of the veins in this set
have certain common features as follows:
-The principal veins in the set strike about 160 to 180 degrees
azimuth and dip 45 to 55 degrees east.
-The veins display remarkable persistence, with lengths up to 2500
feet, and have potential for significant tonnages.
-The veins are in tension fractures in the country rocks which are
essentially unsheared.
-In many places the tension fractures host a variably sheared and
chloritised gabbro dyke emplaced prior to the quartz veins, and
the gabbro dyke may display some carbonatieation.
-The veins consist of white coarse crystalline quartz.
Mineral
isation consists of widely spaced patches of pyrite, pyrrhotite
and visible gold.
Some tourmaline may be present, as bands
parallel to and often near vein margins.
Mariposa North Veins
The North Mariposa Veins are crossed by the Surluga Road on claims 3470
and 3471 The veins here are a network developed along two principal
directions of approximately 170 to 180 degrees dipping 45 degrees east,
and 070 to 080 degrees dipping 70 degrees south. Vein width varies
from 3 inches to 10 feet. Local sulphide bearing rust stained patches
contain fine grained pyrite and pyrrhotite as hairline fracture fill
ings, mrn. to cm. veinlets and as irregular patches up to 6 inches

across.
Pyrite also occurs as matrix material to angular brecciated
zones of quartz veining. Surface panel sampling in 1987 yielded assay
v&luee ranging up to 0.418 02./ton gold Au. The best gold values were
spotty in the lower or most westerly vein which was apparently reached
by the Mariposa Shaft. The other veins had only lower and spottier
values.
Mariposa South Vein
The
Mariposa 'South' surface exposure consists of
one
principal vein south of a pond on claim 3375. It has been traced by
stripping over 1200 feet and strikes at between 150 and 175 degrees.
Dips are NNE at 55 to 65 degrees. The vein pinches and swells 0.5 to
10 feet. Surface panel sampling has resulted in only disappointingly
low assay values less than 0.09 oz/ton, with one spectacular patch of
scattered visible gold about 5 inches across near the south end. Zones
of tourmaline enrichment are observed along vein margins in some
places.
Road Vein
The Road Vein extends from the adjacent VanOllie Explorations Inc.
property southwards onto Citadel's claim Y463 where it was inadvertent
ly stripped for several hundred feet by VanOllie crews in 1989.
Citadel mapped and sampled it in 1990, and exchanged assay infomation
with VanOllie.
Near its north end where it intersects the VanSickle Vein, the Road
vein is reported by VanOllie to contain low gold values.
Furthersouth, gold values are insignificant. One feature of this vein is
minor amounts (less than I/O of chalcopyrite as pods and scattered
grains.
There is no association between gold and copper mineral
isation.
8.0
GEOCHEMICAL SURVEYS.
In 1989 humous sampling surveys were conducted over the grid west of
the base line from Minto Lake to the south end of the property. In
1990, the survey was extended along a few lines east of the Base Line
towards and around the Parkhill Mine to investigate an anomaly south of
Ward Lake.
The sampling technique was to take a sample at 50 foot
intervals along lines spaced 400 feet apart. The material samples was
taken from the bottom of a sod cut off the top of mineral soil, after
removing all visible traces of mineral soil. Samples were analysed by
neutron activation analysis for gold and 2 3 other elements. A report
on this work by Leroy (1990) sets out the results in more detail.
The results of the geochemical survey indicated a few spot values which
were not confirmed by follow-up sampling. Near the Grace Mine and near
the Parkhill Mine, anomalies extending for several hundreds of feet in
all directions were noted. The anomaly shapes cannot be explained in
terms of only ice dispersion, downslope migration of soils or water,
nor in terms of contamination during mining: They persist in direc-

tions unrelated to slope, and the quantities of gold involved are too
great to have been caused by blown tailings. These anomalies apparent
ly define a broad aureole of primary' gold enrichment around both mines,
but especially around the Parkhill Mine. This suggests that gold
mineralising solutions at these sites was pervasive rather than tightly
channeled, and that there is a good possibility of finding other en
richments near these sites. It confirms objectively the earlier sub
jective observation that the concentration of mineralised zones near
the Parkhill Mine was the "centre of gravity" of gold mineralisation in
McMurray Township. Such a conclusion supports deep exploration propos
als in these areas in downdip extensions of known
mineralised
structures to target larger or richer ore deposits than those manifest
ed in the better explored updip parts of shear zones.
Now that objective geochemical evidence confirms the Parkhill area as a
site where deep exploration is justified by a hope of improved grades
or tonnages, exploration of the down dip and down plunge extensions of
the Surluga Mine ore zones in the Jubilee Shear underlying the Parkhill
Mine can be justified. An earlier proposal for such work was rejected
in 1988 by the writer (Rupert) because there was insufficient evidence
then for deep concentrations of gold there, and the most probable postulation then was that exploration would only find more marginal mater
ial like that already found in the Surluga Mine.
The geochemical
survey has improved this prospect by supporting the hypothesis that
better grade mineralisation may be present at depth.

GEOPHYSICAL SURVEYS
Prior geophysical surveys have been referenced and described by Rupert
(1990).
Subsequently in 1990, Stratagex Limited (Roth 1990) reviewed
these surveys further. Comments here will be limited to interpretation
of data which can be improved by relating the data to the results of
this 1990 geological mapping job.
The Matachewan diabase dykes are magnetic, and can be traced roughly
using airborne magnetic surveys. The best survey for locating them
over the current map area is a 1983 Dighem Survey conducted over
McMurray Township in 1983 by Northern Horizon Resource Corp.(OGS Re.
Geol. Files).
Because this survey was flown with properly oriented
east-west lines, it clearly defines the diabase dykes, and shows that
they are a series of left-hand en echelon segments. The Citadel compi
lation map of McMurray Township has been revised on the basis of this
data.
The same Dighem survey also records a discontinuous conductor extending
south from Boyer Lake towards Oakley Lake. The current mapping indi
cates that this conductor coincides with an iron formation which
outcrops sporadically along the edge of a parallel and later diabase
dyke.
This conductor confirms the stratigraphic trend interpretation
on the easten parts of maps 2-4 and 2-5 and the western part of map 35. Every conductor coincides with a mapped zone of iron formation, and
vice versa.

There are no other prominent magnetic or electromagnetic anomalies in
the area mapped which are not adequately explained by the current map
ping. No gold mineralised zones have any apparent anomalous responses.

CONCLUSIONS
10.1 The Jubilee Stock is a dioritic zone with several recognisable and
mappable sub-units within it. Definition of these subunits in this
mapping program indicates that a physically competent "core grano
diorite" unit is associated with the better gold bearing parts of the
Jubilee Shear and is a probable ore control. It follows that further
exploration under Ward lake is warranted, and that in future deep ex
ploration, more attention should be directed to definition of footwall
lithologies of the shear zone to establish large areas of competent
wall rocks.
10.2
Figure 2 shows elements of improved structxiral interpretations poss
ible as a result of this survey. The Jubilee and Darwin Shear Zones
are significant faults with demonstrable displacement of lithological
units on opposite sides. The Darwin Shear is probably the displaced
continuation of the Jubilee Shear on the south side of the Parkhill
Fault: There is a significant difference in the dip of these two units
which is interpreted as being the result of flattening of the shearzone at depth prior to its displacement along the Parkhill Fault.
Alternative interpretations would be that:
they are different faults, or
the Minto B and Jubilee Shears are the upward continuation of a
steeper fault parallel to the Minto B at depth, and that the
Darwin Shear should be corelated with the Minto B Shear.
The sense of displacement on these Shear Zones is not determined.
The intensity of the Darwin Shear is less than that of the Jubilee
Shear Zone, and at its south end, the Darwin Shear appears to be dissi
pating into a zone of les competent schistose pyroclastic rocks.
Both
shear zones carry anomalous gold values throughout at low concentra
tions, with commercial gold values concentrated locally where wall
rocks are competent.
10.3 Stratigraphy of the volcanic rocks in the area has been defined
much more precision, and several separate fault bounded blocks
been defined.
with
have
10.4 Markers which have been corelated across the Parkhill Fault zone are
tenuous at best. They indicate that the horizontal component is left
hand, between 2100 and 2800 feet, and all three indicate that the
southwest side of the Parkhill Fault moved down, with a vertical
component of movement of between 600 and 2400 feet.
10.5 It is conclxided that, geophysical methods are of limited utility as
tools for direct location of gold mineralised horizons in this
environment. Magnetic surveys are useful mapping tools, and there are
a few non-economic features which can be defined by electromagnetic
DMGEOL90.R
^1990 Program
Page 35
methods.
10.6 It is concluded that geochemical sampling of humus has indicated an
aureole of gold values around the Parkhill Mine caused by a feature
larger in scale than the Parkhill ore zone alone.
This objectively
confirms earlier subjective observations that the concentrations of
mineralised veins between the Minto and Mariposa Mines is a significant
geochemical anomaly.
From this conclusion, it follows that deep
exploration of the Jubilee Shear Zone beneath this area is more
justifiable than in the past because there is now reason to expect
discovery of better ore zones here than those previously found in the
Jubilee shear. Re-evaluation of a formerly negative feasibility study
for this target is justified now.
10.7 The Jubilee Shear Zone and the Darwin Shear are apparently the faulted
continuations of one another, and are themselves the most significant
structure controlling gold mineralisation on these claims. There is no
evidence from this program that they are subordinate structures
associated with another higher ranking structural dislocation.
11.0 EXPLORATION TARGETS
The principal targets for continued exploration
Properties located or confirmed by this program are:
of
the
Citabar
11.1 Deep exploration of the Jubilee Shear Zone beneath the large anomalous
gold area around and north of the Parkhill Mine.
Objective evidence
for improved mineralisation there upgrades exploration target quality
and probable success factors enough to justify re-evaluation of a
previously
proposed program of deep drilling which was
judged
infeasible in 1989. Up to 24 holes totalling 63,600 feet of core are
involved.
11.2 Repetitions of the veins in the set of sheared zones parallel to the
Parkhill Mine. The mine was previously viewed as one principal vein,
rather than a repetitive set of veins.
11.3 Drill testing of the untested north end of the Darwin Shear where it
is hosted in competent intermediate intrusive rocks. Drilling in this
program would include 4 to 8 holes totalling 2000 to 3200 feet.
11.4 The eastward and downdip extensions of the Nyman Vein remain prospect
ive.
Additional stripping and limited diamond drilling to test for
this vein under a swamp should be considered.
11.5 Further mapping and prospecting of the area south of the Grace Mine is
warranted.

RESULTS OF MAPPING PROGRAM 1989-90
File Note, Oct. 1990, D escription of Darwin Shear
Memo - to file
Date - October 1990
re.
Visit by Kevin Heather, OGS. and general notes
observations regarding the Darwin Shear structure.
and
At my request, Mr. Kevin Heather of the Ontario Geological
Service toured the stripped zones of the Darwin Shear structure,
on the property of Citadel Gold Mines Inc., on Sept 21/90.
Mr
Heather has spent the past six field seasons working in the
Michipicoten Greenstone Belt. His particular area of interest
has been the belt-wide deformation/shear packages which host most
of the known gold mineralization within the belt. In order to
study these large scale deformation zones, Heather has examined
and documented literally scores of smaller, localized shears,
both auriferous and unmineralized.
The objectives of this tour were to hopefully gain some
understanding of the nature of the shear unit, and its relative
significance in terms of size, dip, length and intensity of
deformation as compared with other known shear zones within the
belt.
It rained steadily throughout the day, which, although
unpleasant, alowed a superb wet-surface look at the outcrops. On
some of the recently stripped areas, this was a definite
advantage.
Heather initially comented on the degree of folding within
the blocks of relatively 'unsheared' material.
These blocks
comprise approximately 60 to 7 0K o f the ground exposed by
stripping, and separate the highly deformed lozenges of, sheared
material which show pervasive textural and fabric alteration.
The stripped sections along the 'Darwin Shear'from the
pond at approximately line 48S accross the rise to line 56S was
examined. Whihin this portion of the linear, there are six well
defined lozenges of intensly altered and sheared material.
The
sheared lenses strike at an oblique angle to the topographical
linear.
Observable dips on the surface ranged from 45 to 55
degrees east.
Plotted dips for the mineralization (from diamond
drill data) indicate a much steeper aspect; in the range of 70 to
75 degrees east.
The generalize, the portion of the linear from line 48 S
through to line 56 S is bounded by a steep, cliffed hanging-wall
slope, characterized by angular boulder debris at its base. The
footwall
slope
is
much more gentle
and
is
in
fact
indistinguishable topographically from the material within the
shear 'zone.'
Heather's
comment
regarding
the
degree
of
shearing/alteration observed was that it was an 'immature' shear
with an extremely high ratio of xmsheared material interfingered
with the intensely altered (auriferous?) lenses.
The relative
amounts appear to be approximately 4 : l unaltered to sheared
DarwinSO
material within the topographical linear.
When questioned about the topographical continuity and
strength of the linear as observed on aerial photographs, Heather
questioned some of our basic assumptions in return. For example,
why did we assume that the fault which created the hanging
wall scarp had any connection to the observed
shearing?
Heather's observations of regional patterns indicated to him that
the fault, as observed on the hanging-wall of the linear, was
Proterozoic and not contemporaneous with the much older shearing.
This presumes that both the emplacement of mineralization and the
shearing
observed were Archean in origin.
In
Heather's
estimation, the strike of the fault, its length, and its general
aspect all are indicative of late Proterozoic brittle faulting.
If this is indeed the situation, one is left to explain the
presence of multiple, discontinuous, sheared lenses, at least
some of which contain anomalous gold values.
Heather's evaluation of the Darwin linear, as veiwed from
the exposure between lines 48S and 56S, and without detailed
field work on his part; was that the 'Darwin' was an immature
zone of weak shearing following a pre-existing lithological
contact.
The existance of the 'shear-zone* as a distinct
topographical linear was a result of a later, Proterozoic fault
along the same contact plane of weakness. Heather indicated that
he could see little to be optimistic about regarding its
potential as a major gold bearing structure.
General Notes
From the mapping work completed this summer by
Doug
MacMillan,
it is never-the-less apparent that
there
are
similarities between the Jubilee Shear zone and the 'Darwin' zone.
Both the strike and surface aspect, steep hanging-wall scarp and
shallow foot-wall, show marked similarities between the two zones.
Also the offset distance between the two structures can be
tentatively corroborated by offsets in two marker units.
An overview of the mapped areas along the "Darwin' structure
indicates that the section showing maximum relief along the
hanging-wall contact, is also that portion where the 'shear' coinsides with the western margin of the Jubilee stock. (approx.
L56S north to L48S.) South of Line 56S, the linear transects an
assortment of mafic to intermediate volcanics. As one proceeds
south, the intensity of shearing, and the relative density of the
shearied lenses within the 'zone' appears to weaken.
The
topographical definition of the linear also weakens to the south.
Futher to the south (past L.84S) the linear looses topographical
definition and becomes difficult to trace on the ground with any
degree of confidence. This weakening of the shearing, and of the
topographical expresssion, may well be related to the change in
DarwinSO
nature of the original break. In those sections where the fault
followed a sharp lithological boundary between the Jubilee Stock
and the adjacent volcanic pile, the faulting is obvious, and
associated shearing is relatively strong. To the south, the
Darwin structure follows a much less defined fault-line within
and across the interlayered pile of lithologically similar mafic
to intermediate volcanics. This southern portion shows very weak
and discontinuous associated shearing.

Re:
MacMurray Twp Project:
Evaluation
Geophysical
Interpretation
Dear Linda:
As per your instructions at our meeting on last Friday,
I attach a print of an interim version (at l" s 1320') of
the evolving geophysical interpretation for the above
project, for your scrutiny and .transmittal to Roy Rupert.
As noted at our meeting, v the project area and its
geophysical database display a high level of complexity and
a considerable number of unresolved conflicts between
published geology and discerned geophysical features. It
is hoped that direct interaction with Roy (via a visit in
July) will help distill exploration insights and targets of
immediate consequence, resolve (or at least diminish) the
apparent conflicts and, more generally, ensure that full
benefit is derived from this study.
Among the key aspects that have emerged to date from
the geophysical appraisal are:
1) NE-trending stratigraphic elements that apparently
transect mapped intrusives;
2) Early? faults and/or shear zones aligned with strat
igraphic trends that offset the Jubilee and Darwin
faults;
3) Heterogeneous, poly-phase intrusives inferred where
mapping indicates homogeneous lithologies;
4) No discernible geophysical pattern suggestive of an
overall intrusive centre;
5) Isolated conductors of probable bedrock origin
apparently related to disrupted iron formation;

Re: Citadel Gold Mines: IP
- j
Dear rLinda:
Having directed further attention to the test IP
traverses executed in 1988 by JVX, I offer interpretive
comments on this data below, followed by s ome suggestions
re additional IP, in response to your letter of August 2.
As noted previously, the results of the test IP
traverses show moderate to moderately strong chargeability
anomalies that are not readily explicable in terms of known
and extrapolated geology. In particular, along the Jubilee
shear zone, an area characterized by geological complexity,
understanding is further reduced due to the wide line
spacing .
The apparent resistivity data from the Jubilee lines
show a persistent weak near-surface low at the subcrop of
the Jubilee shear zone.
However, this feature could be
readily attributed to the effect of a lense of overburden
along the fault-enhanced topographic low.
There is no
resistivity pattern interpretable as a weakly conductive
fault zone dipping moderately to the east and persisting to
depth. Although the absence of such a feature is surprsing
in terms of surface exposures of the shear, underground it
appears to be rehealed with carbonate and silica, and hence
may have only a small resistivity contrast with the host
volcanics and "diorite".
The chargeability data were recorded at two different
'a' spacings (100 and 200 ft) with the pole-dipole array
(N s 1-6) on lines 6N, 14N, 24N and 54N, as well as with the
gradient array.
Use of the two 'a' spacings confers
additional interpretive insight and confidence, slightly
mitigating the sparse line spacing. The gradient array data
provide enhanced resolution of near-surface sources, but at
in places are in conflict with the pole-dipole data.
I have prepared interpreted cross-sections in schematic
form for the three key lines with most geological control
(6N, 14N and 24N), which are attached (together with the
original
1 = 100'
pseudosections )
This
interpretation
incorporates the data at both 'a 1 spacings.
Significant aspects of these interpreted sections are:
1) Moderate to moderately strong IP sources in the H/W
of the Jubilee shear zone (accompanied by high resis
tivities ) ;
Suite 300,75 King St.E., Toronto, Canada, M5C !G3*Tel:(416) 362-3344*Fax:(416)362-3800*Telex: 06 524481
- 2 2) Complex source geometries, with interpreted moderate
westerly(l) dips of a number of sources (or contacts);
3) Tenuous correlation of the complex IP source on line
14N between 3W and 5E with a gabbroic intrusive;
4) No evidence for an IP source directly correlatable
with the known Jubilee shear zone and attendant
mineralization (although several deep sources lie
within or near the projected place of this fault).
This aspect is also surprising in view of the minor
sulphides observable in the shear zone underground and
reported in drill logs, and the general absence of
sulphides otherwise.
This evaluation does not lend much support for further
IP coverage along the projected Darwin shear zone, which is
less strongly developed than the Jubilee.
However, IP
surveys might contribute to the planned exploration along
this trend in an indirect fashion, enabling extrapolation
of geology in areas of thicker overburden, particularly if
executed in sufficient detail and density.
Should you decide to include additional IP in the on
going program, I would counsel that
(i) initial coverage with 'a 1 of 100ft (or 25m);
ii) pole-diple array for superior S/N and production;
iii) resurveying key lines oor sectors with a second
'a' spacing (50 ft suggested) for full resolution;
iv) careful attention by the IP crew to data quality.
I hope the above is helpful in your deliberations.
Please give me a call to discuss any of the above aspects
further.
Sincerely,
Rot
