Casing. All casing recovered on termination of hole.
Interval consists of typical felsic agglo merate 7-14.10m and a plagioclase-quartz porphyritic rhyolite 19.38-23.58. Agglo merate is composed of more of less aphanitic light grey rhyolite fragments which are matiix- supported in a fine-grained chlorite-dominated matrix. Chlorite is a medium grass-green ir colour, and the contacts between rhyolite fragments and matrix are diffuse, l-3% anhedral garnets are disseminated throughout the matrix and are up to 2-3mm in size. Crude banding apparent on a Local scale.
The rhyolite (19.38-23.58) is medium grey in colour, very hard and non-magnetic. 10-] 5*! anhedral to euhedral plagioclase phenocrystE are matrix-supported. 1-3t anhedral quartz phenocrysts are disseminated throughout. Trace calcite-filled hairline fractures.
14.10-19.38 Sedimentary interval containing moderately to well bedded chert-magnetite- argillite. Generally chert-magnetite dominzted and chlorite-bearing to 15.5m, then changing to argillite-greywacke to 19.38. Load casts observed at 18.86 suggest stratigraphic tops are downhole.

The section below 56.0 to roughly 86.0 isdominated by clastic sediments and containsrare to minor amounts of chert beds. Clastisediments are volumetrically dominated bymassive greywacke beds.80.51-80.96 Feldspar porphyry dyke. Similarto above.Core Angle: 600 tea at 81.8, bedding.
Colour variable from white to black, very hard, variably magnetic, due chiefly to pyrrhotite content. Section is dominated by weakly bedded to brecciated chert, with less than 10t interbedded chloritic material. This chloritic material may represent a chlorite-altered sediment. Chloritic bands appear to be conformable and not due to alteration. Rare amounts or argillite (weakly graphitic) are interbedded amongst the cherts (eg. 102.6m).
Core Angle: 6O0 to c.a. at 106.8m. Bedding.
Some alteration possible in chert breccia sections. An assemblage of talc(?)-silica (?)- sericite 9?) forms a a veinlet/stockwork around/defining some chert fragments. Some replacement of dark chert by a lighter silica (?) material observed.
Sulphides are common in the 56-85 interval, being roughly 7% in overall abundance. Sulphides dominated by pyrrhotite (95) with the remainder consistirg of py-cpy-sph, in that order. Sulphides occux mostly as beds, bands of heavy diss to smsv sulphides, and patches/ rods scattered through out. Chalcopyrite is relatively common, occurring in less than It abundance, and shows strong affinity to Po. Cpy occurs as diss and stringer. Trace sphalerite observed at 69.0.
Pyrrhotite is abundant, above 98.0. Overall abundance possibly lot, locally becoming smsv-msv (eg. 91.65 to 92.49). Mostly, the po occurs as stringers/veinlets/ patches around chert fragments and within larger chert sections.

Varioles are typically 3-8mm sized, rounded, with buff or grey coloured cores and occur in patches or concentrations up to 40-80cn wide (St varioles). Local sections up to 15cm wide of ^01 -t 1mm sized varioles or spherulites.
104.2-109.1 unit resembles a pillow breccia unit with l-5cm sized angular dark green fragments in a black chlorite selvage material. Minor varioles.
