Vernon Marble Project[ Huronia Marble]

LOCATION: The project is located in central Vernon Twp.[ G-3193], Sudbury mining division, NTS number 411/12, mining claims S- 1211237 [6] units, S-1237514 [2] units centered at UTM 44150 E 5148700N.

Access: The project area is accessible via Hwy. 17 west from Sudbury to Beaver Lake, from where one must proceed to the past producing Agnew Lake mine, then by all- weather gravel road approximately 11 kms. to the area known by local loggers as the fuel tank, a large black fuel storage tank on the west side of the haul-road. From this point at approximately 600 metres north, a secondary haul road leads west to within l km.of the claim group. An excavator road leads to a sizeable stripped white/ivory colored marble exposure dubbed the south marble showing.

PROSPECTING TARGETS: Relatively little is known of the geology of Vernon Twp. however, the author's experience with skarn type mineralization to the south in Porter Twp. and the occurrence of magnetite-iron skarn to the north in Hess Twp., it does appear likely that other mineralized skarn occurrences exist where the geology is similar in nature. Limestone is one of the favorable lithologies preferred during skarn development in Au.-Cu. skarns, however, it is also a favorable host to stratabound Pb. -Zn-Ag. deposits and occasionally marble of high quality which can be marketed where access is made inexpensive.

GEOLOGY: The regional geology is well documented in numerous publications therefore will not be quoted here. The claim group and local geology covers an area of Huronian rocks unconformably lying on Algoman granite. These rocks are highly folded and are cut by late gabbro intrusives. The Algoman granite is a coarse grained to medium grained pink granite which on some weathered surfaces appears white due to the weathering of feldspar.

Unconformably above the granite, lies a unit of Mississagi quartzite of the Huronian sequence. The quartzite is grayish to white in color and shows good current bedding. Many laminations of thin argillite and greenish greywacke were observed in the southern portion of the claim group. Weathering has given rise to rusty alteration of the argil lites and rusty blebs in the quartzite and greywackes. This is due to oxidation of sulphides. The contact of the Bruce formation in the southwest corner of the project area is quite sharp. Here the quartzite/grey wacke changes suddenly to conglomerate. This conglomerate contains pebbles and cobbles of white granite in a dark gray to black fine grained matix with small blue quartz eyes .Above this unit lies a limestone bed of the Espanola formation, which is typically creamy white with narrow bands of black silty material displaying pronounced differential weathering on outcrop. In the northwest portion of the property the limestone is rusty and bright red in

color. The Espanola formation also contains a unit greywacke. This rock is abundant and is a uniform gray color lying above the limestone. The thickness of this unit varies mainly due to its generally flat dip and nature of the folding. A large outcrop of Nipissing diabase intrudes into Mississage quartzite as a sill- like body in the northeast and east margins of the property. The above description was taken from a geology report, Piispanen Option Group, Vernon Twp., by F.J.Evelegh, regional geologist, Sept. 1970, Sudbury assessment files.

ECONOMIC GEOLOGY: [KD.Card,1978, Geology of the Sudbury Manitoulin Area] Stone- the part of the Espanola formation that consists of thin, alternating beds of white marble and black siltstone has potential for use as a decorative building stone. Presently, the property holders have traced the marble for a distance of 1600 metres and where exposures permit observation, appears to have a width of 30-40 metres with 15-20 metres relief. An area approximately 15m.X 80m. was exposed by power-stripping in July 99. [See photos included].

PREVIOUS WORK: The first recorded work on the property and nearby area was conducted by Texas Gulf Sulphur Co. in 1966. Five diamond drill holes [555 metres] total, were collared to investigate the occurrence of Pd.- Cu. -Zn. mineralization in the northeast -eastern portion of the present claim group. Mineralization encountered in drill hole #1 included py,gn,asp,cp, sp,calc, over narrow intervals and no further work was recommended. In 1970 Canadian Johns Manville Co. conducted geological mapping, ground magnetometer and ground electromagnetic surveys over a large area of south-central Vernon Twp. which included the project area in search of uranium. During the mapping of bedrock geology they outlined the marble indicated above as well as the geology of the property in general, however their work was not encouraging and the ground was allowed to lapse.

The author believes that the project has considerable potential, stripping the marble at selective sites and sampling the bedrock for mineral potential and at the same time the rock can be assessed as a decorative stone.

The author and partner Harry Haapala have taken a small test block of the white marble to a local stone processor for preliminary evaluation, the results are very encouraging as the stone is very hard and particularly attractive. It polishes to a bright finish due to it's harder than normal properties

Local prospectors hope to develop marble quarryRosalind Waples

The Recorder

RED DEER VILLAGE - Jf all goes well, a quarry to extract marble unique to the local area could be in production within the next three to five years. Danny Brunne of Red Deer Village, south of Espanola, has been a prospector for most of his life. He and his partner Harry Hapala have been testing a local area to see if a unique type of mar ble can be used for practi cal applications as well as for its artistic value, He is very excited about the pos sibility of developing a quarry. However, he emphasizes the project is at a very preliminary stage and there is still a lot of work to be done.

"We have staking rights to the land where the stone is found. We are sure the marble has all kinds of practical applications as a building material. We are still in the preliminary explorations stage. We have to look for a number of various factors before it can be determined whether a quarry would be viable or not. Some of these factors can include things like how dense are the fractures if there arc any, that sort of thing. The area we have

PROSPECTS... Danny Brunne, a prospector from Red Deer Village, south of Espanola, is excited about the possibility of developing a quarry and mar keting plan for what is being called "Huronia Marble". Here he is seen in his shop with some of the raw pieces as well as polished samples of the marble. The marble is found naturally in a variety of colours ranging from black to white, beige to amber and even pink. Brunne is hoping to develop the quar ry over the next three to five years.been working on is over a slabs can be put to use asmile long. That is a lot of rock to evaluate. We have just begun working the site this year."

Brunne calls the type of marble in the area "Huronia Marble". He expects it can be put to use in a variety of ways.

"We are looking at devel oping the quarry. Large

building materials, floor ing, wall panels, even cof fee tables. The marble ranges in colour from black and white to beige and amber, and even some pink. Pink is considered very rare. We still don't know how much we have at this point," he said.

" We are very excited but

also patient. With my experience in quarrying, it is important to bc thorough and patience is extremely important. We are prospec tors. We will be working closely with consultants and other interested parties lo develop a strategy for rock extraction. A beauti ful piece of marble can be destroyed if it is not proper

ly removed. We don't want to destroy it. It is just like cutting a diamond. One wrong move and you can destroy the stone. Extracting marble takes the same level of expertise in removing it from the quar ry," he continued.

"I've been prospecting since l was a kid. I started doing it for a living in 1978. My grandfather Albert was a prospector so l guess it is in the blood," he chuckled. "The earth has a beauty all its own. While we were doing some preliminary work on the site we came across many smaller pieces. It occurred to us, while cleaning the rock, that they had a beauty all of their own. I have actually given some pieces to friends and they really like them. We hope to mar ket these pieces as well. We have actually started to do a little testing in the marketing of these smaller pieces. There seems to be an interest in it. We are also looking at developing a business strategy and marketing plan for the quarry next year. It will take time," he continued.

Brunne emphasizes wait ing three to five years to ready the site for produc tion is nothing in the big scheme of things, especial ly when it comes to the

geological history of how the marble first came to be.

More than 3.8 billion years ago, the earth was in ferment, shaken by earth quakes and bathed in poi sonous gases. There was no atmosphere and no life. From deep within its core, hot magma gushed to the surface and crystallized to form the Precambrian Province, which forms the region of Lake Huron, Lake Superior and the Southern Geological Province surrounding the Vernon Township discov ery of Silurian-age marble. This rock, though often hidden far beneath the soil, forms a very tiny part of the foundation of North America.

A billion years passed. Slowly the rock wore down and LaCloche became a vast region of sand. In another billion years this sand turned into stone. Even though none of the earth's continents had yet been formed, the plates of the earth were in constant motion, shifting and collid ing. One of these collisions generated such intense heat that the sandstone of LaCloche and the ' me- stone of Vernon Township were transformed into quartzite and marble.

continued from page HI

Under monumental pres sure, il folded and buckled until its craggy peaks low ered like the Alps.

Around 450 million wars ago North America was part of one giant comment called Pangaea with the equator running light over Manitoulin Island. At that lime, the North Shore \\as dramatically altered In two tropical seas, l he Ordovician and the Silurian. The Ordovician Sea covered much ol southern Ontario with its northern boundary at Birch Island. Limestone and dolostone deposits that built up over millions ol years on its muddy floor are now evident throughout Manitoulin Island.

Some of the tiny crea

tures of the second sea, the Silurian Sea. were reef builders and have left evi dence of their work in the form of peculiar knolls of limestone protruding from farmers' fields near Manitowaning. The most impressive reef however, is the monolithic arc of lime stone known as the Bruce Peninsula that divides Georgian Bay from Lake Huron. That geological history formed the marble that is now being consid ered for extraction.

"We have no idea how many jobs would be creat ed at this point. However, running a quarry w'ill take manpower. I think it is very exciting to be able lo provide long term employ ment to people interested in this kind of work," said

Brunne. "We are prospec tors, not professional stone cutters, so we will be look ing for expertise in this area as well. Many experts, especially in marble extrac tion, are from Europe. The Italians are noted for that. having been extracting marble for over four thou sand years. But l believe we also have a lot of Canadian expertise out there and that is who we arc hoping to attract lo the project. Our objective at this point is to bring the quarry sites lo the point of pre-developmcnt, find out the quality and quantity of marketable materials and bring in experts in engi neering to design the extraction process. We are very optimistic about this project," he concluded.
