3 INTRDUCTIN Page l The services f Exsics Explratin Limited were retained by Falcnbridge Limited t cmplete several small fill-in grids n a larger grid which had been cut n the Currie-Bwman ptin during the summer f The riginal grid cnsisted f 200 meter spaced lines which cvered the whle ptin. This initial grid was then cvered by a ttal field magnetic survey and an HLEM survey. The results f this first prgram prmpted Falcnbridge t cut several lines between the existing grid lines t better define weak HLEM anmalies. These new grid were cmpleted during the mnth f January, 1996 and are called Grids A,B,C and D. Each f these new lines were then fllwed-up with an HLEM survey as well as a ttal field magnetic survey which was tied int the existing surveys. This reprt will deal with the results f this new 1996 fill in prgram n Grid A. PRPERTY LCATIN AND ACCESS Grid A f the fill-in, 1996, prgram is lcated in the suthwest sectin f Currie Twnship, east f the Little Grindstne Creek and suth f the Grindstne River. Mre specifically it is situated apprximately 6 t 7 kilmeters suth f the Village f Shillingtn. Shillingtn is situated n Highway 101, apprximately 45 kilmeters east f the City f Timmins, ntari. Currie Twnship is part f the Larder Lake Mining Divisin. Figures l and 2. Access t the grid was ideal during the survey perid. There is a gravel rad running suth alng the twnship line between Bnd and Currie and in the summer this rad wuld prvide drivable access t the west side f the grid. During thw prgram nly a prtin f this rad was plwed but the grid is easily accessible by skid. A gd trail running east ff f this rad parallels the 9200MN baseline and is skidable t the fill-in lines. Travelling time frm Timmins t the site is apprximately l hur. CLAIM GRUP The claim numbers which were partially cvered by the fill-in prgram are as fllws: L L Twp.

GRUND PRGRAM This prgram cnsisted f cutting lines between the existing grid t better define weak HLEM cnductrs. The new lines t be cut were 10900Me, 11100ME, 11500ME, 11700ME and 11900ME frm 9700MN t 9100MN and 8800MN. In all, a ttal f 5.3 kilmeters f new grid were established. The cutting was cmpleted between January 5th and 9th, 1996 The gephysical prgram cnsisted f cmpleteing an HLEM survey n the new lines and a detailed ttal field magnetic survey being cmpleted n the entire grid frm lines 10800ME t 12000ME and between 9700MN t 8800MN. In effect, 10.9 kilmeters f magnetics were dne and 3.5 kilmeters f HLEM were dne. The survey was cmpleted between January 14th and 15th, SURVEY PRCEDURE The magnetic survey was cmpleted using the BRGM, MNI IV system.

The cllected data was pltted directly nt a base map at a scale f 1:5000, ne map fr each frequency, and then prfiled at lcm= ^/-20%. Any and all cnductr axis were placed directly nt the base map and interpreted fr depth and cnductivity where pssible. A cpy f each prfiled frequency is included in the back pcket f this reprt. SURVEY RESULTS The HLEM survey utline ne mderate cnductive zne striking acrss the grid lines. The zne is interpreted t be at a depth f 75 t 85 meters and with a mderate cnductivity f 5 t 6 mhs. The cnductr appears t be at the uter limites f the search capabilities f the HLEM survey. The magnetics suggest that there are a number f crss structure present n the grid. There is tw nrth-suth structures paralleling lines 10900ME and the nrth half f 11800ME. There als appears t be a minr fault structure crss cutting the grid frm line 11400ME/9100MN t line 11800ME/9500MN. The nly crrelatin with the HLEM cnductr is the mag high bullseye n line 11600ME and the flanking mag high n line 11100ME. The cnductr des nt appear t have any definite magnetic assciatin.

9 Page 4 NCLUSINS AND REMMENDATINS The grund prgram was successful in utlining ne weak cnductive zne n the grid. Unfrtunately, the zne is situated at the maximum penetratin capabilities f the survey. The magnetic survey des nt appear t enhance the zne. Shuld diamnd drilling be cnsidered, then the HLEM zne shuld be fllwed-up with a deep penetrating survey t better define the zne and t spt a driil hle cllar.

The new lines t be cut were 15100ME, 15300ME, 15500ME, and 15700ME frm 10400MN t 9600MN. In all, a ttal f 4.5 kilmeters f new grid were established. The cutting was cmpleted between February 9th and 16th, 1996 The gephysical prgram cnsisted f cmpleteing an HLEM survey n the new lines and a detailed ttal field magnetic survey being cmpleted n the entire grid frm lines 15000ME t 15800ME and between 10400MN t 9600MN. In effect, 8.6 kilmeters f magnetics were dne and 3.1 kilmeters f HLEM were dne. The survey was cmpleted between February 17th and 18th, The mving cil PEM survey was cmpleted n lines 15300, and 15500ME. SURVEY PRCEDURE The magnetic survey was cmpleted using the BRGM, MNI IV system. Specificatins fr this system can be fund as Appendix A f this reprt.

A weak questinable zne was nted n line 15100ME at 9969MN which appears t cntinue ff f the grid t the west. Further wrk wuld be required t better define the surce f the zne.

41 Page 4 The magnetic survey suggest the weak zne is n the suth flank f a brad weak magnetic high. The survey als utlined a nrth-suth structure generally paralleling line 15400ME which may suggest there is a dike like feature crsscutting the grid. The magnetic high unit cvering the suth prtin f the grid may relate t the metavlcanics and felsic cntact. The PBM survey did nt seem t utline any additinal cnductive znes n the grid. A weak questinable and deep zne was nted n line 15300ME at 9940MN with a cnductivity f 3 mhs. This may relate t the weste edge f the crss structure r may relate t the easte extensin f the weak HLEM zne nted n line 15100ME. Further testing may be required t better define the zne. NCLUSINS AND REMMENDATINS The grund surveys were nt successful in utlining any gd bedrck cnductrs. The tw znes utlined by the HLEM and PEM surveys wuld require further fllw-up wrk t better define their surces. The magnetics did utline the suspected gelgical strike f the grid as well as utline a gd nrth-suth crss structure which may by dike related. Shuld a fllw-up prgram be cntemplated then a Deep penetrating type survey shuld be cnsidered and be cncentrated n the weak cnductive znes nted.

Timmins, ntari The prgram was cmpleted under the direct supervisin f J.C. Grant. The pltting and cmputer cmpilatin was cmpleted by P. Gauthier f Exsics. GRUND PRGRAM This prgram cnsisted f cutting lines between the existing grid t better define weak HLEM cnductrs. The new lines t b cut were 17100ME, 17300ME, 17500ME, and 17700ME frm 10000MN t 9200MN. In all, a ttal f 3.2 kilmeters f new grid were established. The cutting was cmpleted between February 6th and 09th, 1996 The gephysical prgram cnsisted f cmpleteing an HLEM survey n the new lines and a detailed ttal field magnetic survey being cmpleted n the entire grid frm lines 17000ME t 17800ME and between 10000MN t 9200MN. In effect, 8.8 kilmeters f magnetics were dne and 3.2 kilmeters f HLEM were dne. These surveys were cmpleted between February 09th and 10th, The mving cil PEM survey was cmpleted n lines 17200, and 17700ME. SURVEY PRCEDURE The magnetic survey was cmpleted using the BRGM, MNI IV system. Specificatins fr this system can be fund as Appendix A f this reprt.

Radi link SURVEY RESULTS The HLEM survey was nt successful in lcating ur utlining any definite bedrck cnductr. A weak questinable zne was nted n lines 17100ME, 17300ME and 17500ME at apprximately 9780MN and it appears t cntinue ff f the grid t the west. Interpretatin f this zne suggests it is shallw at 15 meters and weak with a cnductivity f 2 mhs.

60 Page 4 The magnetic survey suggest the west prtin f the zne is n the suth flank f a brad weak magnetic high and that the easte extensin relates t a mderate magnetic lw unit. The survey alc- utlined a nrth-suth structure generally paralleling lin 173ME which may suggest there is a dike like feature crsscutting the grid. The magnetic high units cvering the central and suth prtins f the grid may relate t the metavl canics and felsic cntact. The PEM survey n lines 17700ME and 17600ME appeared t suggest that there is a weak deep zne situated at 9540 t 9560MN. This zne appears weakly n the bttm channels. The weste tw lines, 17200ME and 17300ME did nt seem t utline any additinal cnductive znes n the grid. The negative readings between 9700MN and 9600MN may relate t a hill t swamp cntact. NCLUSINS AND REMMENDATINS The grund surveys were nt successful in utlining any gd bedrck cnductrs. The tw znes utlined by the HLEM and PEM surveys wuld require further fllw-up wrk t better define their surces. The magnetics did utline the suspected gelgical strike f the grid as well as utline a gd nrth-suth crss structure which may by dike related. Shuld a fllw-up prgram be cntemplated then a Deep penetratinc. type survey shuld be cnsidered and be cncentrated n the weak cnductive znes nted.
