Author: Cowley, W.M.

Fifteen rotary holes, 13 with bottom-hole core, tested 3 aeromagnetic anomalies for the presence of Hutchison Group, which is prospective for lead-zinc-silver. Low grade meta-sediments and possible acid volcanics of the Hutchison Group were intersected in 2, possibly 3 of the areas. Also recovered were amphibolite, Lincoln Complex gneiss and Sleaford Complex gneiss. Anomalous Ag, As, Pb, Zn, and Cu was detected in several holes. These previously unknown occurrences of Hutchison Group rocks increase the prospectivity of the under-explored area, and further work is warranted.
