SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS
Exploration work carried out during the period from
February 1st, 1984 to January 31st, 1985 has tested mineral
indications in the northern part of the company's Onaman Lake
property, Thunder Bay Mining Division, Ontario.
The property is underlain by a sequence of volcanic and
related volcanoclastic sedimentary rocks that is host to
widespread base and precious metal mineralization. There are
four areas in which exploration has been concentrated. These
include the previously known Johnson Zone in the south of the
claim group along the Tashota Mine road, and the Currie Zone
which lies in claim KK2239.
The area which received the most concentrated investigation
during the program being reported is located in Claim KK2275
with extensions into KK2272 on the west and KK2238 on the east.
This has been designated the North Anomaly and the North Showing
area. Exploration during the period included detailed geophy
sical surveying, geological mapping, trenching, sampling and
diamond drilling. The second area studied lies near the western
boundary of the claim group. Magnetic surveys done in 1983 were
supplemented by detailed VLF-EM work during 1984. This area is
overlain by extensive overburden and swamp and was not further
explored.
In the North Anomaly area there is a strata-bound horizon
exposed at surface from which samples carrying significant
JAMES E. TILSLEY 8t ASSOCIATES LTD.
silver values have been collected and a second zone intersected
by diamond drilling that also contains precious metal values.
While there is no obvious continuity of values in the horizon
sampled at surface, two drill holes that cut the second zone on
the same section line returned 0.06 to 0.09 oz. Au/ton and 3.9
to 5.1 oz. Ag/ton across a true thickness of slightly more than
eight feet.
Results of the exploration work done during the 1984
program, work done during 1983, and previous exploration within
the property all indicate that the claims cover a volcanic
sequence that has been generally and extensively mineralized.
However, zones of economic mineralization have not yet been
defined. There is adequate evidence to encourage additional
general exploration within the claim group. In addition, the
down-plunge extension of the zones mined from the Tashota Shaft
450m east of the property boundary can be expected to enter the
property at depth. Recent drilling on the Tashota claims near
the common boundary indicated a newly discovered, well
mineralized zone would enter TJN ground at a relatively shallow
depth. The company has been approached by the owners of the
Tashota property in regard to a joint exploration program along
the common boundary,
recommended.

INTRODUCTION
Gold was first reported from the Onaman Lake area in 1916.
It was not until 1923 that there was a discovery of potential
economic value. During August of that year, J. McKechnie
located the prospect that was to become the Tashota Mine some
fourteen years later in 1937.
Since the original discovery of gold in 1916, there have
been numerous exploration programs in the Onaman Lake volcanic
belt. There are many base/precious metal showings and
prospects. There has been obviously widespread mineralization
of the lavas, tuffs and related rocks during the time that
igneous processes were active. The belt gives every indication
that the environment is favorable for deposition of significant
economic mineral deposits. However, the only mining operation
in the immediate area of the TJN claims was on the adjoining
Tashota ground.
The TJN Gold Explorations Inc. property lies immediately to
the west of the Tashota ground, the eastern l|mit of the
patented claims being approximately 450m west of the main shaft.
Underground workings of the Tashota Mine extend westward to
within 230m of the common boundary, and it is expected that
unmined portions of the Tashota zones will pass into TJN ground
at some depth. Recent relatively shallow drilling west of the
Tashota shaft near the common boundary confirms this
interpretation.
JAMES E. TILSLEY ft ASSOCIATES LTD.
West of the TJN property there are several small base
metal/precious metal deposits. These lie along the regional
strike of the volcanics through a distance of three to four
miles to the southwest and include the Headway/Coulee A and B
zones which are indicated by diamond drilling to contain in the
order of 400 000 tons of sulphide mineralization and the most
recent 70 000 ton discovery made in 1975 at MacDonald Creek
approximately two miles southwest along the Tashota Road.
LOCATION AND ACCESS
The property lies to the northwest of Onaman Lake and south
of the South Onaman River.
Approximate co-ordinates are: 50 02'45"N; 87 36'30"W:
The area lies within N.T.S. Sheet 42L, and is shown on the
Ontario Geological Survey Map 2411, and Ontario Department of
Natural Resources plan No. M-1409, Coughlan Lake, District of
Thunder Bay.
The property is accessible via Highway 801 from Highway 11
at a point about fifteen miles east of Beardmore, 28 miles to
the Abitibi Camp 40, then about 29 miles east and northeast
along the Tashota Road. The property is easily reached with
light trucks during the summer months. The Tashota Road is not
usually plowed during the winter.
There is daily air service to Geraldton on Highway 11, some

PROPERTY
The property consists of eight patented claims registered
in the name of Albert Hopkins of Toronto. Mr. Hopkins holds
mining rights only. The claims are under option to TJN Gold
Explorations Inc.
The claim numbers are as follow:
KK442 KK2272KK2238 KK2273KK2239 KK2274KK2243 KK2275
CLIMATE, TOPOGRAPHY, LOCAL RESOURCES
The climate of the area is northern continental. Summer
high temperatures may reach 35 degrees Celcius and winter
minimums approach -45 degrees C. Frost is possible throughout
the year and is occasionally recorded during July with more
common occurrence in early June and late August.
Total annual precipitation is in the order of 730mm, rain
accounting for about 65^ (480mm) and snow as fallen about 2600mm
equivalent to 250mm of water.
The elevation of the area is between 1000 and 1200 feet
above sea level. Relief is moderate with few hills rising more
JAMES E. TILSLEY fie ASSOCIATES LTD.
than 150 feet above base level. The property is generally low-
lying with much swamp and bog through which occasional low
rounded outcrops are exposed.
Forest cover consists of spruces, balsam fir, pines,
poplar and birch, with alders and willows in low-lying and
logged areas. The timber of the area has been harvested in
large part, particularly in areas of good drainage. There are
large areas of slash and young second growth.
There are no villages or other permanent habitations in the
area of the claims. The nearest sources of labor are the towns
of Beardmore, Jellico and Geraldton.
There are no currently operating local power supply lines
north of Hwy. No.11, although power lines extended to the former
Sturgeon Lake Mine during its operating period 1934 - 1942 and
to about 1955. The Sturgeon Lake location is about 25 miles
south of the TJN Gold Explorations Inc. Onaman Lake property.
Mechanical services, food, equipment, et cetera, are
available in variable supply along the main highway at Beardmore
and Geraldton, and in the town of Nipigon and the city of
Thunder Bay.
HISTORY
Gold was first discovered in 1916 by one Gregory Brennan
who was prospecting along the newly-cut Nipigon Forest Reserve
line. The first claims were staked in 1922 when Brennan and his
JAMES E. TILSLEY ft ASSOCIATES LTD.
partners discovered additional showings east of the Forest
boundary .
During August of 1923, J. McKechnie located the mineralized
zone that was to become the Tashota Mine. At about the same
time additional mineralized zones were located along the belt,
including the Coulee and Headvue showings.
Exploration has been carried out in the Onaman River
volcanic belt at various times since the original discoveries.
This interest relates to the discovery of small sulphide-bearing
bodies in place and frequent location of sulphide-bearing float
boulders found to be rich in silver with associated gold values.
The largest sulphide bodies lie to the west on the Coulee
property, where Headvue Mines drilling in the early 1950"s and
additional work by Noranda Exploration Company in 1974, have
indicated a total of approximately 400 000 tons of sulphide
mineralization containing both base and precious metals.
More recently, in 1975, the Onaman Joint Venture was
successful in locating the source of rich silver float at
MacDonald Creek. This zone contains an indicated 70 000 tons at
an unspecified grade.
The Onaman Lake claims held under option by TJN Gold
Explorations Inc. have been investigated by exploration programs
begun in 1983. Work done prior to the part of the program
reported herein includes detailed geological mapping of the
entire property, magnetic surveying of the new grid, trenching
JAMES E. TILSLEY a ASSOCIATES LTD.
and sampling of the Johnson Zone.
During 1984, the northern part of the claim group was
investigated in some detail following up results of sampling
done during the fall of 1983. This work includes detailed
magnetic and electromagnetic surveying of the Northern Anomaly
area, diamond drilling a total of 1000 feet in five holes,
detailed geological mapping of the Northern Showings, trenching
and sampling of exposed zones.
GENERAL GEOLOGY
The property lies near the eastern end of a northeast
trending belt of Archean volcanic rocks interpreted to have been
deposited contemporaneously with the Beardmore-Longlac and
Armstrong-Nakina volcanic belts.
In the immediate area of the property along the South
Onaman River the belt is approximately four kilometers wide. It
is bounded on the northwest and southeast by batholiths of
biotite quartz monzonite to trondjemite composition.
The metavolcanic rocks of the area include mafic
flows, mafic tuffs, occasional sulphide-rich iron formation,
dacitic tuffs and agglomerates. Within these more basic
volcanics is a band of intermediate to felsic tuffs about 400
meters wide that can be traced along strike for about five
kilometers. The felsic pyroclastics are overlain unconformably
JAMES E. TILSLEY ft ASSOCIATES LTD.
by metaconglomerates that have been mapped from Conglomerate
Lake through Con Creek to MacDonald Creek.
The South Onaman River belt appears to be synformal. It is
isoclinally folded about an axis that plunges southwest at about
60 degrees.
The Precambrian rocks of the area are overlain by glacial
deposits of Pleistocene age and sands, gravels and organic
accumulations of Recent age. The Pleistocene deposits include
variable thicknesses of sand and gravel deposited from glacial
meltwaters, lacustrian sands and clays, tills and esker gravels.
GEOLOGY OF THE PROPERTY
During the 1983 program the entire claim group was mapped
geologically. Results of this mapping are summarized as
follows:
The patented claims overlie a portion of the Onaman Lake
volcanic belt. The rocks exposed consist of fine to medium
grained mafic volcanics, generally schisted but occasionally
massive or pillowed. Banded tuffs were also recognized.
Interbanded with these mafic volcanics are weakly to strongly
schisted (sericitic) felsic metavolcanics and rhyolite/feldspar
porphyry sills. The sills range in width from 30cm to over 3
meters and are generally massive and unschisted, indicating
probable late introduction into the volcanic sequence.
A -400 meter wide band of strongly schisted felsic
JAMES E. TILSLEY ft ASSOCIATES LTD.
tuffaceous beds are mapped in the northern part of the property.
Along the southern boundary of the claim group the
metavolcanics are in contact with an intrusive of granodiorite
composition. Near the contact with the metavolcanics this
intrusive is gneissic. Gabbroic and dioritic bodies are noted
within the metavolcanics and may relate to extrusion of the
intermediate to basic lavas.
The most prominant structural feature on the claims is
schisting of the metavolcanic rocks. Schistocity strikes
quite consistantly N70E and dips 75 to 80 degrees to the
northwest. It is noted that the orientation of gneissosity in
the igneous rocks to the south of the property is parallel to
the fabric seen in the metavolcanics.
Jointing is prominant in all the rocks except the rhyolite.
Joint patterns are northeast and northwest with near-vertical
dips.

MINERALIZATION
The volcanic rocks of the property are hosts to wide-spread
mineralization. Copper, lead, zinc, silver and gold values have
been obtained from showings throughout the claim group.
Exploration of the Onaman Lake Belt since 1923 has resulted in
the location of several sulphide bodies that appear related to
volcanogenic processes. Some of the descriptions suggest that
mineralization is hosted in shear zones. However, our
observations are that much of the mineralization is essentially
syngenetic, in part concentrations of minerals that can be
described as distal exhalative. There is also an apparent
relationship between base and precious metal concentrations and
feldspar porphyry dykes. The latter type of mineral
concentration may be developed due to circulation of solutions
through the volcanic pile induced by the heat of the porphyry
dykes. Fluids passing through relatively low grade exhalative
mineralization appear to have collected values that were
subsequently deposited adjacent to the circulation-inducing heat
source due to reduction in solubility of the minerals because of
rising temperature.
Other zones give sampling data that indicate notable
segregation of values within a stratigraphic horizon, perhaps
due to processes active during deposition. In some instances it
appears that values are confined to clasts within tuffaceous
11
JAMES E. TILSLEY ft ASSOCIATES LTD.
horizons. Small sample volumes often give very high or very low
assays . Large sample volumes prepared from bulk samples crushed
and mixed thoroughly are likely to give much more consistant
ranges of values.
The most encouraging sampling results obtained during the
1984 exploration program were from diamond drill holes TJN-2-84
and TJN-3-84. These holes intersected a sulphide-bearing
tuffaceous bed adjacent to a feldspar porphyry sill on line
26+OOW at about 24+OON. Significant silver and gold values were
encountered in both intersections. Results are given in the
section on diamond drilling.
The property covers ground in which there is much evidence
of mineralizing activity. However, exploration has not yet
defined bodies of economic importance within the claims studied.
DIAMOND DRILLING
During the 1984 exploration program a total of 1000 feet of
diamond drilling was completed in five holes. These drill holes
were spotted to test magnetic and electromagnetic anomalies in
the Northern Anomaly area. The holes were generally short and
designed to test the near-surface portion of the causative
structures. Core size is BQ wireline. All holes were inclined
at nominally 45 degrees to the south.
Sections of the holes have been prepared and are presented
12
JAMES E. TILSLEY 8t ASSOCIATES LTD.
in Appendix 1. Detailed lithographic logs comprise Appendix 2
and copies of assay certificates pertaining to the drilling can
be found in Appendix 3.
Drill holes TJN-2-84 and TJN-3-84 intersected a mineralized
zone adjacent to a rhyolite porphyry sill that contained
potentially economic gold and silver values.
The intersection of the zone in drill hole TJN-2-84
returned an average of 0.09 oz. Au/ton and 3.90 oz. Ag/ton over
8.4 feet true thickness. The same zone, where cut approximately
60 feet down dip by drill hole TJN-3-84, returned 0.062 oz.
Au/ton and 5.10 oz. Ag/ton across 8.6 feet.
Other mineralized sections were sampled in these two holes
and TJN-1-84 and TJN-4-84 but none was found to carry
significant precious metal values. Sphalerite, galena,
chalcopyrite were identified in small quantities along with
ubiquitous pyrrhotite and pyrite, in many sections of the core.
However, no sections were not assayed for base metals due to
visibly low concentrations of sulphides.
SURFACE SAMPLING
Sampling of mineralized zones during the 1983 exploration
program indicated that there was some degree of segregation of
precious metal values in the pyrite-pyrrhotite concentrations
studied. Assays tended to be very low or relatively high, with
few intermediate values. Our experience with ores that are
13
JAMES E. TILSLEY ft ASSOCIATES LTD.
"difficult" to sample suggested that these results indicated
significant segregation of metal. In such cases it is necessary
to increase the size of the field sample to ensure that at least
five typical segregations are included in each. Since it is
difficult to arrive at the optimum size without benefit of an
extensive small sample data base the 'large sample short cut'
was employed.
Mineralized zones to be investigated were stripped of
overburden as much as was possible under existing conditions.
Trenches were drilled and blasted across the strike of the body
being investigated. The holes were drilled to a depth of
approximately 0.70m and spaced 0.30 to 0.50m apart. Each hole
was loaded with a small charge of explosives sufficient to
shatter the mineralization but not large enough to result in
significant displacement of broken rock from the trench.
Fifty to one hundred kilograms of material was removed from
each sample section. The total amount was passed through a
Whitelaw No. O laboratory size jaw crusher set to reduce the
feed to -1/2 to -1/4 inch. This material was mixed thoroughly,
coned and quartered to a final cone of approximately fifteen to
twenty kilograms. Each final cone was split into four
individual samples weighing about four or five kilograms. All
four samples of the final cone were sent to an assay laboratory
where at least one kilogram from each was pulverized to 80% -200
mesh and fire assays done on 20 gram sub-samples cut from a
14
JAMES E. TILSLEY ft ASSOCIATES LTD.
well-mixed pulp. This procedure provided sufficiently reliable
data to establish the true grade of the sections sampled and
thereby reliably determine the mineral potential of all zones
tested. Sampling data, assay certificates, et cetera, are
appended. (see Appendix 3 and Appendix 4)
GEOPHYSICAL SURVEYS
During the 1984 exploration program, parts of the property
the Northern Anomaly and Northern Showing areas of claims
KK2238, KK2272 and KK2275 were surveyed using magnetic and VLF-
EM equipment. In addition, there was VLF-EM coverage in KK2274
and portions of adjoining claims in the southwest corner of the
group.
The object of these surveys was to better define targets
for diamond drilling and trenching.
Magnetic surveys were done using a MP-2 proton magnetometer
manufactured by Scintrex Limited of Concord, Ontario. The
instrument measures the instantaneous total magnetic field of
the earth in gammas at the position of the sensor. This field
will vary with time and readings are corrected to some arbitrary
reference intensity. Base stations were chosen in each survey
area and all readings were corrected for diurnal variation on
the basis of data collected at the beginning and end of each
circuit. Circuit time was generally kept to less than one hour
15
JAMES E. TILSLEY ft ASSOCIATES LTD.
and there were no evident large variations in magnetic intensity
during data collection. Maximum variation in station readings
due to diurnal variation is estimated to be plus or minus ten
gammas. There are locations where the magnetic gradients are
quite steep. Repeatability of individual magnetic readings is
often plus or minus 50 to 100 gammas, due solely to position of
the sensor.
Corrected readings are plotted on the accompanying plans.
The presentation includes contouring and compilation with
electromagnetic data. The magnetic field strength on the
property has a range of slightly more than 12 000 gammas above a
base of approximately 59 000 gammas.
The electromagnetic surveys were done with VLF-EM receivers
manufactured by Geonics Limited of Toronto, Ontario. This
equipment is designed to operate using signals from military
navigation stations transmitting in the 12 000 to 28 000 Hz
frequency range. These signals are designed primarily for
purposes of submarine navigation.
The primary signal penetrates ocean water to depths in the
order of 100m and has been detected in rock 500m or more below
surface. This deeply-penetrating primary (magnetic) signal
produces secondary currents along structural features that have
electrical properties that contrast with those of the
surrounding material. These secondary electrical currents are
detected by VLF-EM receivers which respond to the magnetic
16
JAMES E. TILSLEY ft ASSOCIATES LTD.
fields associated with them. The instruments provide means of
measuring the inclination of the resultant of the primary and
secondary magnetic fields ('Real' component). These dip angle
data are used to interpret the axis of the current flow and, by
association, the axis of the conductive structure.
The instrument also provides a measure of the time lag
between the primary and secondary fields ('Quadrature'), which
is expressed in percent.
The dip angle data are of most use in most interpretations
with quadrature determinations often providing some useful
information in regard to sulphide concentrations, et cetera.
Profiles of the dip angle data are often used to illustrate
graphically the inclination of the resultant field and
conductive axes interpreted geometrically. Dr. D. C. Fraser
described a mathematical filter that gives contourable numbers
to indicate the axis of conductive zones and, at the same time,
removes some of the very long and very short wave length "noise"
that is common to much geophysical survey data.
In this interpretation, conductive axes have been located
using the simple difference method. The difference in dip angle
between consecutive readings is determined by inspection. The
conductive axis corresponds to the steepest slope or slopes
observed. Interpretation can be done along survey lines and
from one line to another, such as is necessary when the
conductive structures are sub-parallel to the survey lines.
17
JAMES E. TILSLEY St ASSOCIATES LTD.
When survey lines do not cut the conductive axes at a large
angle, it is useful to visualize the field around the axes as a
half-cylinder above the ground surface and to consider each dip
angle reading as a point determination representing a specific
"topographic 1 location on that surface.
The signal source used in the surveys of the property was
generated by station NAA, located at Cutler, Maine, USA.
Both Real and Quadrature determinations are plotted on the
VLF-EM maps. Interpreted conductive axes are indicated on the
plans along with the above mentioned raw data. The data are not
presented in profile form.
PRODUCTION
There has been no mineral production from within the claims
comprising the TJN Gold Explorations Inc. property.
MINERAL RESOURCE
The Tashota Mine which lies some 1500 feet east of the
common boundary between the two claim groups has produced a
total of 12 355.7 ounces of gold, 14 527 ounces of silver and
360 306 pounds of copper from a total of 51 250 tons of ore
milled between 1935 and 1938. Although there are other sulphide
bodies explored in the immediate area, they have not been
sources of commercial production. The main possibility for
18
JAMES E. TILSLEY ft ASSOCIATES LTD.
production from the TJN property at this time appears to be from
westward extensions of mineralized zones mined and explored by
diamond drilling west of the Tashota shaft. Underground
workings from this access extend to within about 700 feet of the
common boundary and recent diamond drilling has indicated
precious metal zones that are likely to extend westward from the
Tashota property into the company's ground.
EXPLORATION POTENTIAL
The data available do not permit selection of specific
areas other than to the west of the Tashota workings for further
detailed mineral exploration.
General mineral exploration is still warranted throughout
the property since there is much evidence of base and precious
metal mineralization.
Based on results obtained from programs completed on the
property and information on work done on adjoining properties in
the Onaman Lake volcanic belt, and due to extensive glacial
overburden cover, further prospecting should concentrate on
studies of the basal portions of till sheets for mineral
content with effort directed toward detection of source areas.
The sources of metal anomalies in tills at the bedrock
overburden interface should be further investigated by diamond
drilling in most cases since there is little opportunity for
19
JAMES E. TILSLEY ft ASSOCIATES LTD.
successfully completing trenches to bedrock in unexplored areas.
RECOMMENDATIONS
There is widespread evidence of extensive mineralization in
an apparently very favorable geological environment within the
property boundaries. Geophysical surveys indicate numerous
conditions that may indicate sulphide mineralization. Most of
the untested area is obscured by extensive overburden and swamp
cover. Exploration of the geophysical anomalies by diamond
drilling without benefit of a pre-selection process would be
prohibitatively expensive.
Therefore, it is recommended that the next step in the
exploration of the property should concentrate on studies of
lower tills to determine location, extent and source of
anomalous metal contents that may be found therein.
Diamond drilling of geophysical targets that are likely
source areas would then be reduced to a more manageable budget.
