The 808 21-40 mineral clal@s are located north of Lamb Creek and south of Rabbit Foot Creek approximately 10 km West of Moyle Lake. Access Is gained by taklng the Green Gay/Moyle Lake Provlnclal Park turnoff 15 km south of Cranbrook, Brltlsh Columbia. on Hlghway 3/95. From this turnoff, one drives south 1;2 km, then south-west on the Lamb Creek Forest road Eight kllometers past Mlneral Lake, the road crosses Rabblt Foot Creek and enters onto the 808 claims (see Fig. 2).
Slopes are moderate on the SD6 claims wlth elevatlons ranging from 1500m to 1800m. The area Is generally forested with pine. spruce and f Ir domlnatlng. The area Is mainly overburden covered and outcrops are sperse.

In 1976, massive sphalerlte-grlena-pyrrhotite boulders whre discovered
north of Moyle Lake by Comlnco Ltd. A 2-8m wide veln was uncovered and
since Sulllvan time exists approximately 1 OOm below thls showlng this
prospect was/is explored as a vein type and a syngcnetlc type of lead-zinc
prospect.
Other noteworthy deposlts found Inlame-age Aldrldge Formatlon rock are
Sul I Ivan (over 160,000,000 tons of 12% combined Pb/Zn wlth 2
ounces/tonne Ag) and the St. Eugene veln orebody located on the southern
halt of Moyle Lake.

2.0 GEOLOGY PAGE 6
2.1
The aree Is underlaln by rocks of the Purcell Supergroup and lo&ted on the western flank of the Purcell Antlcllnorlum. The Purcell Antlcllnorlum Is a north plunging, broad antlcllnal structure In Hellkian and Hadrynlan aged rocks. The rock forming thls antlcllnorlum are In order of oldest to youngest:
The Aldrldge Formatlon consists of Lower Aldrldge green-gray-black rusty weatherlng thln bedded slltltes and arglllltes. Ovarlylng Lower Aldrldge are .quartz wackes” and arglllltes of the Middle, Aldrldge Formatlon wlth occeslonal verve like bandlng. These turbldlte related bands have been correlated rtratlgraphlcally for over 300 km. O&lying these rocks are l$per Aldrldge thln bedded rusty weathering arglllltes, slltltes and occaslonal thln grey quartzlte units. The entlre Aldrldga Formatlon Is 3000~5000m thick.
The Creston Formatlon overlies the Aldrldge Formatlon and consists of grey-green-purple/maroon, cross-bedded and rlpple marked platformal quartzites and mudstones. It Is known to be more’than 1600m thick
The Kltchener-Slyeh Formatlon overlles the Craston Formatlon and represents shallow water green-grey dolomltlc mudstones. thln buff coloured dolomlte and thln whlte-gray quartzlte and thln green-sllver- grey schlst/phylllte unlts.
Dark green-black gabbro/dlorlte sills ranglng In thickness from one to hundreds of meters thick Intrude the Purcell Supergroup and are common on the property. One particularly large sill known as the Sundown Sill Is found throughout the Aldrldge Formation. Another notably large sill occurs Intermittently at Hlawatha Time (1200 feet above Sullivan Tlme).
Bedded sulphide mlnerallzatlon together wlth zones of alblte (sodium
enrichment) and tourmallne and fragmental rock arq presently being
explored for on the FORS prospect both at Hiawatha Tlme and at3ulIlVan
Tlme. The FORS property represents one of only four tourmallne
pipes/vents that have been found apart from the Sullivan Mlne In Aldrldge
rock. Another smaller tourmallne vent Is located 8 km northwest by
Negro Lake. Here, Comlnco drllled to Sullivan Time but dld not tlnd any
economic Intersections.
In addltlon to syngenetlc vein type or fracture type lead-zinc mlnerallzatlon, the area has potentlel to host hlgh grade gold mlnerallzatlon along quartz fllled faults or slllclfled shear zones. These aurlferous shears post date host rocks and generally strike northeast or erstwest sometimes paralleling major ancient structures such as the Moyle Fault, the Baldy Fault or the Palmer Bar Fault.

The BOB l-20 claims I la 2 km northwest of the northeast str Wing ,&$ylb Thrust Fault. The Moyle Fault has thrust older Aldrldge Formatlon rock over younger Kltchener Formatlon rttltudes on the property strike northeast and dlp southeast wlth steepening dlps towards the Moyle Fault (large scale drag toldlng?).
A large (approximately 15Om thlck) gabbro sll I strikes AZ 270 ~3~3s ,,;the ‘north half of the claims. It Is conformable with bedding, and Its strlke also parallels large scale reglonal fold axes. This sill Is thought by the author to be associated with Hlawetha Time. It has been known to appear lntermlttantly throughout the Aldrldge Formation Just before Hiawatha Time. If so, thls would Imply that Sullivan Tlme lies 420 m stratlgraphlcally below thls sill and would be best reached by drill hole from the southeast corner of the claims. Further geologlcal mapplng Is needed to conf Irm thls and to search for markers.
Thln gabbro dykes also occur on the property.
The bulk of the claim group Is covered by proterozolc Aldrldge sedlments Imlddle and upper Aldrldge FormatIon).
The Aldrldge Formatlon Is composed of medium to thick-bedded slltlte. phyllltlc argllllte and mlnor serlclte/muscovlte schist and quartrlte. These rocks were deposlted by deep basln turbldlty currents.
GEOCHEMISTRY PAGE 9
Mercury Testing was done using a mobile Hg only, PPB machlne- ,.i,~. . .
manufactured by Jerome Instrument Corporation. J&me Arizona. IGird”““‘;”
FI Im Mercury Detector-Model 301).
Five pound soil samples were taken from Just under the humus layer, drled ,,~ ~ ,.~ ,.z*. ,,,*:, j ,~, _ ~. Jo
at room temperature, then screened to 80 mesh. Samples were split to
l/4 gram and then heated on a hot plate for 3 minutes et 125 degrees
Celslus. The resultant vapors are captured by means of a suction pump In
the mechlne. At this point the collector ilng removes all of the mercury
from the vrpour end stores It. After the sample has been heated for the
required tlme, It Is removed and another clrcult In the machlne Is engaged.
This releases the mercury from the collector rlng and passes It between
two gold films. At thls polnt the machlne dlgltelly reeds out the quantlty
of mercury In part per bllllon. Each sample takes about 20 m!nutes to
analyze. The mechlne Is cleansed of mercury every 20 semples or when
erratic reedlngs are obtelned by heating the gold tllms for 3 minutes.’
All mercury testlng was done by A, Whaley In Crenbrook, Brltlsh Columble.
40 CCINCl.USlONS AND RECWMENtMTlCMi PAGE 10
Threshold and anomalous values of mobile Hg were predetermined as 30
ppb and 50 ppb respectively based on prevlous mobIld‘~m~rC~~~‘tidtIrig of
Aldrldge Formatlon equivalent rock In the United States (la the Pritchard
FormatIon).
On the 606 l-20 claims five threshold values were obtained. These
correspond wlth the upper and lower contacts of the large grbbro slll
thought to occur at Hlrwatha Tlme.
A program of geochemlcal sampling lncludlng ICP Is recommended tor the
known areas of $111 contact to see It thls horizon Is geochemlcilly
anomalous wlthln the Aldrldge Formatlon on the BOB l-20 clalms.
Geophysics and diamond drllllng of this horizon should be contingent upon
success wlth the geochemlcal sampling.
