Geological Summary |
THE DUSTY MAC ORE-BODY CONSISTED OF A MINERALIZED QUARTZ BRECCIA LENS MEASURING 200 METRES BY 50 METRES BY 9 METRES ORIENTED NORTHWESTERLY AND DIP- PING GENTLY TO THE NORTHEAST. THE LENS IS HOSTED BY EOCENE PORPHYRITIC, FELDSPATHIC ANDESITIC FLOWS AND LAHARS. THE ORE-BODY WAS MINED IN 1975-76 AND CONSISTED OF 93,653 TONNES GRADING 6.89 GRAMS PER TONNE GOLD AND 146.59 GRAMS PER TONNE SILVER. WIDESPREAD PROPYLITIC AND LOCAL INTENSE SERICITE ALTERATION OF THE ROCKS DEFINE THE DUSTY MAC MINERALIZED ZONE. THE ZONE IS K20 ENRICHED, HAS AN ENHANCED RUBIDIUM-STRONTIUM RATIO AND A DISTINCT PRECIOUS METAL HALO. SOIL GEOCHEMISTRY INDICATES THAT FLUORINE, GOLD, SILVER AND MOLYBDENUM ARE GOOD INDICATORS OF DUSTY MAC STYLE MINERALIZATION.
