'RODUCTION

From late September to early October, 1984 a geological survey was completed on Patnour's Northwest Tisdale property. The property consists of 18, contiguous, unpatented mining claims located in northwest Tisdale township, Porcupine Mining Division (Figures 1&2). The claims are as follows:

LOCATION and ACCESS

The Northwest Tisdale claim group is located about 2.5 miles north of Highways 101 and 655 intersection, in northwest Tisdale Township (Figure 1). Access Is via Highway 655 which traverses the central portion of the claim group. Numerous gravel roads give access east and west of Highway 655.

PREVIOUS WORK

Very little work is on record for this property prior to it's acquisition by Pamour in 1980 fi, 1981. Hollinger Mines in the 1920's and 1930's explored the eastern portion of the group as a source for gravel for their mining operations.

Pamour Porcupine Mines Limited has conducted VLF-EM and magnetometer surveys on the property during 1981 S 1982. The VLF-EM surveys located conductors associated with the mafic-ultramafic contacts and the anticlinal structure. The magnetometer survey indicated the presence of ultramafics bodies dipping steeply to the southeast.

In 1983 Pamour completed a basal till sampling program utilizing a portable sonic drill. In 1984, 10 overburden holes were drilled using a reverse circulation drill.

IIONAL GEOLOGY

All the bedrock in the area Is of Early Precambrian age. Early Precambrian metavolcanics in the area are divided into two groups, the Deloro and Tisdale Groups (Table 1). The Deloro Group is the oldest Group and is largely a calc-alkaline sequence* The younger Tisdale Group contains both Komatiitic and Tholeiitic metavolcanics. The Porcupine Group, predominantly a turbidite sequence, is time equivalent to the top of the Deloro Group and all of the Tisdale Group.

Large sill like bodies of dunite and lherzolite were ^mplaced almost entirely in the Deloro Group. Minor, small epizonal quartz- feldspar porphyry intrusions were intruded into the metavolcanics. Northeast-trending diabase dykes of Middle and Late Precambrian age traverse the area.

The major structure in the area is the Destor-Porcupine Fault Zone, trending northeast-southwest. North of the fault, two periods of folding can be recognized; an original north-trending series of folds which were subsequently refolded about an east-northeast axis.

PROPERTY GEOLOGY

The small amount of outcrop exposed on the property occurs in the northwestern portion of the claim group (Map 1). One small outcrop of pillowed mafic volcanics occurs at L36E/6+50S. Exposures on the property all belong to the Lower Metavolcanic Formation of the Tisdale Group (Table 1). The stratagraphically lowest unit is a series of ultramafic flows exhibiting polysutering and spinifex textures. Flow contacts were discernable between some adjacent flows. The strike of the flows were approximately 60 to 70 degrees.

The axis of the North Tisdale Anticline lies just to the south of the major outcrop area. Very little faulting or alteration is associated with this fold.

The remainder of the property is covered by glacial deposits of sand, gravel, and clay. A prominent esker covers the eastern half of the claim group which surrounds numerous pits from which Hollinger extracted sand and gravel that was used for backfill in their mining operations.

Vegetation cover, where it exists, consists of coniferous trees such as Jackpine, Spruce, Balsam, and Tamarack mixed with minor amounts of Poplar, Birch, and Alder. Two areas within the claim group were clear-cut obliterating the existing grid.

CONCLUSIONS

Due to the limited outcrop no significant mineralization was encountered during the mapping of this property. Because of the extensive overburden cover the use of geophysics and possibly overburden sampling should be relied on heavily to evaluate this property adequately.
