l PHYSIOGRAPHY
Tne area ci the claims- is- comprised of moderate reid el ana in some instances steep slopes. Tnese niliocKs run in an northeasterly direction and are separated by small nai row valleys. In some cases small intermittent streams are found in these low areas.
Ground cover consists of mostly maple forests rooteo on gravelly tills composed of well rounded coooies , witn the occasional boulder present, in areas of low relief the principle vegetation is cedar ana aider thicket, fellow Clay covered oy silt in this local environment traps watej to form swampy ana sometimes stagnant pools.

A moderate Po-Z,n anomaly was iouno along the contact between the calcitic ana dolomitic ma: b le east c i Little Green Lake (Claim No. o^o^^j;. A weak Cu-ro-^n anomaly was. outlined along the contact between the calcitic marble ana quartz- feldspar- biotite paragneiss south of James LaKe (Claim No. 840011). Several local gold anomalies were also apparently detected ovei chalcopyrite bearing quartz veins in marble.
In 1980, L. Pauk and G. Mannard of the Ontario Geological Survey, remapp^- the Ardoch Area, wnicn includes tne James r-ropertv l Pauk and Mannard, 1982; . They up'oatea the regional weak aone by Smitn in the eariy lySu's.
I tie soil anomaly east of L.ittie Green L,ane was drill testeo in November 1980 by seico Mining Corporation Limited. A 41.&- metei hole was corea in maroie. Narrow spnalerite stringers were intersected at the bottom of the hole. An assay oi 2 . b/o Ln over 2. 2fc meters was obtained (Sinclair, 1981).
In 1984 a drill hole. 12U meters in length, was collared on claim No. 673434 Dy the vendor C. Koger Young of HavelocK, Ontario. This claim adjoins the James property to the northeast. The hole was drilled to evaluate the industrial potential of the silliminite gneiss unit that trends east along strike from the James Property. Drill results indicated that a suipnide zone of indeterminant length occureci on the south flank of the silliminite gneiss at the contact with dolomitic marble. Unfortunately gold analyses were never recorded for the drill hole.

Tnis oasin is characterized L-V aivers-e hejiKian volcanic aiio seoiinent ary E-ecuence;-.- an-3 metamorphic graces wnicn range from greens en i s- 1 to upper amphibolite. These volcano-sedimentary sequences occur i ri northeast. to east trending elongate synformal troughs and arcuate relics between granitoid and gabbroic plutons . They are characterised locally by isoclinal folding and the development of shear zones subparaiiei to primary banding and axial planar foliation.
The James claims are located witnin an area mapped by and Mannard (I960). These authors have noted at least two periods' 01 deformation. The first produced easterly trending isoclinal folds ano steeply dipping axial planar foliation. l he latter are subpara.iie] to the bedding. The second period produced more open northeast trending folds. These structures, plunge 10 to 30 degrees to the northeast. The claim block is located along tne nortn flanK. of one of tiie easterly trending anticlines.
The meta-sedimentary and meta-voicsnic rocks in tne area belong to three groups. 1hese are. from youngest to oldest, the Harmon, the Mayo and the Fiinton. Tne contact between tne last two is unconformable.
The Harmon group consists of well preserved pillowed malic flows. The Mayo group consists of dolomitic and calcitic maroies, The Fiinton group consists of quartzite. pebble conglomerate, psammite, pelitic schist and calcitic and dolomitic marbles.
The main intrusive in the area are the Elzevir batholith, a biotite granodiorite to quartz monzonite. the petroiogicaily similar Northbrook Batholith, the Mazinaw Lake Granite and the Addington Pluton, a quartz monzonite fConneily, iyfc'5).

Carbonate metasediments are plentiful aci o s s the propel ty. They consist of calcitic and dolomitic marbles. Locally tfiese units contain variable amounts of calc-silicate material p-jimariiy (ci j opsicie ana tremolite;. Calcitic marDie seems to be tne dominant litnoiogv present. Locally the two types of marble are finely interbedded.
The marbles range in colour from iignt grey to buff-brown, and are generally fine to medium grained. In many instances the only way to distinguish the two varieties is by using dilute HCL whicn causes the calcite marble to effervesse. The dolomitic marble will only effervesse when powdered.
Foliation within the carbonate metasediments is well developed, out nigniy variable. The general trend is E-NE witfi dips near vertical. Locally isoclinal folding was noticed. l he axial planes trend N-.G-60 degrees E and dip iu-30 degrees NE.
The carbonate metasediment^, ai e usually in contact with mafic parafneiss. Near tne soutnern edge of claim No. d^u012 tney are an contact with pelitic metasediment^-. Local j y inter beds of rutty weat.nerins.' clastic metasediments nave Deen noted. especially in tilt shaft areas.

1. A high grade zone with lS-30% sillimanite.2. A low grade zone witn 0-157. sillimanite.3. A sillimanite-plagioclase zone with up to 30"i pisgiociaE e.
The high grade zones often nave a large amount of biotite versus muscovite, and locally they have a high percentage oi garnet. Fibrolite, a needie-liKe form of sillimanite fias also been noted ir, the high grade unit. These sub units t orin pods and are ol ten discontinuous along strike.
1 ne pej.it i c metasedimentary units are in contact witn mafic paragneiss to the nortn and marble ana mafic p'aragneiss to the south.
Locally a moderate t-NE foliation is developed in these units. Cross fractures or joints were also noted at 140-160 degrees, these apparently parallel the Plevna fault.
Intruding the marbles and metaclastics on the eastern edge o i the property are a small series of metagabbro diKes and sills. Tnese intrusions are minor and generally occur as 1-20 meters- wide, foliation subparallel sili-liKe bodies wnicn extend from a few meters up to 60 meters in length. In some places these units have been strongly metamorphosed to ampnibolites.

During the survey on the James property Seattle {NLK 24.b Knz.j was used. This station was located in an direction near that oi the baseline. The operator tooK 20 meter readings on tne luu meter grio. Direction of survey was towards the north in order t c- detect possibjt- conductive zones that were parallel to tne baseline.
Occasionally the operator tuned the instiument to Annapolis. (NSS 21.4 Khz j in order to detect possible conductive zones tnat were. parallel to the grid lines.
When the operator approaches, an conductive zone, the signal from one of tne cons i Vertical Axis; is minimized by til tint: t:ie instrument. 'i his tilt ir measured i ri pejcentage. Oioss-ing over a zone causes a tilt angj.e from positive to negative in trie in- pna.se
'component. The remaining signal is oaianceo using tne quadrature control.
A very good conductoi gives an signal 0 1 positive to negative on in-phase component and negative to positive in quadrature component. In-phase dip angle data was manipulated in order to srnootn the data. Tnis method is called fraser filtering and was performed i n areas of noisy readings or areas of .LOW amplitude inflections (Frasei 1969). Sensitivity of this instrument is ln-Phase:*- ibO/o

James Grid Magnetics (.Map 4;
Strong poweriine noise in the area of the grio, which is in close proximity to the poweriine, exnioits small localized anomalies.
Strong magnetic responses occur in areas of mat a c volcanoclastic rocks. Lower magnetic signatures are occuring in areas of dolomitic and calcitic marbles.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
James East Grid-
Since no significant conductive zones or cross cuttin? structures were interpreted no further worK is recommended. Due to the high negative background response in the vicinity of the lake, winter reconnaissance lines with tne V.L.F. may determine if a structure does exist in this vicinity. Ihis would be undertaken utanr station Annapolis (Nssj at 10 meter station intervals.
