Geological Summary
The Skarn property is primarily underlain by a titaniferous magnetite-bearing gabbroic complex. The mafic-ultramafic body is in fault contact with metasedimentary rocks and foliated granitic rocks. Rock chip samples of the pyroxenite-gabbro unit were taken. The magnetic fractions of these samples were analysed for vanadium, titanium and iron. Similar values for vanadium and titanium to those from whole rock analyses (Vulimiri, 1987) were obtained. This indicates that these elements are not confined to the easily separable magnetic fraction.
