fSUMMARY REPORT ON SURFACE SAMPLING OF RADIOACTIVE ANOMALIES ON THE VALENTINIIRANIUM PROSPECT, SNOWDON TWP., HALIBURTON co., SE. ONT. BY ALBERT HOPKINS, GEOLOGIST

INTRODUCTION

Radioactive granite pegmatites were discovered in Snowdon twp. by

prospector Fleming of Minden, Ont. in 1968. As a result, Miro Mines Ltd. of Toronto

acquired and ground-surveyed radiometrically 32 mining claims south of Fleming's

discovery group. Miro Mines' geophysicist, A.B. Fleming (no relation to the

prospector) reported 13 radioactive anomalies (Nos. A to M inclusive) which occur

on the present block of 10 out of Miro's original 32 claims. Mr. FLeming

recommended that these anomalies be sampled properly, and if warranted, be

diamond drilled. Miro Mines Ltd., to the best of our research and knowledge, never

did sample these anomalies, Miro subsequently lost its charter, and all the claims

lapsed and reverted to the Crown. The lack of interest in uranium at that time was

due to very low world prices, and to an embargo on U.S. imports.

Since then the U.S.A. has removed its embargo on uranium imports, and the

world price of urania has climbed from about $6 to $40 a pound. So the writer

(and his associate, John Haahti) restaked the 10 anomalous mining claims containing

these 13 radioactive anomalies for Mr. E.P. Valentini, who gave the writer a

contract to relocate and properly sample the best parts of the 13 anomalies. An

application was made by the writer for an M.E.A.P. (Ont. Gov't Mineral Exploration

Assistance Program) contract, as Snowdon twp. is in one of its designated areas.

A contract was subsequently granted and signed.

PROPERTY

This consists of the mineral rights on 10 contiguous mining claims, Nos.

EO.502199 - 502208 inclusive, comprising an area of about 475 acres. These claims

were recorded on 19 May 1977.

LOCATION NTS. ref. 31.D.15

The property comprises all or parts of Lots 16 - 21

inclusive, Concession VI, in the central SE. 1/4 of Snowdon twp. in the Bancroft-

Haliburton "U" belt of SE. Ontario. The property is l mile N. of Bow lake, 3 mi. W.

of Irondale hamlet, 3 mi. SE. of Gelert hamlet, 6 airmiles NE. of Kinmount village,

8 airmiles SE. of Minden town, and 12 airmiles SW. of Haliburton town, in Haliburton

county, SE. Ontario. This is about 70 airmiles due N. of Eldorado Nuclear's "U"

refinery at Port Hope, and 90 airmiles NE. of Toronto, Ontario.

ACCESS

From Toronto it is about a 125-mile drive to the property, taking no more than

2 1/2 hours, via superhighway 401 E. to Newcastle, and thence N. on No. 35 to Fenlon

Falls, and thence on No. 121 NE. to Kinmount, and E. on No. 503 to Irondale, and

finally 3 miles NW. on a county gravel road that joins Irondale and Gelert hamlets,

the latter on Highway No. 519.

In 1968 there was no road through this Miro property, but now there is a new

bush road along the N. boundary of the property and S. into its W. section, as well

as a new winter or skidoo access road going S. to Bow lake along the E. boundary of

the 10 claims. There is a 3rd old bush road trending W. along and near the S.

boundary of the 10 claims from a farmhouse on the Gelert-Irondale county gravel road.

LOCAL GEOLOGY

The host rocks of the radioactive deposits of the Haliburton-Bancrof t

area are all of Precambrian age. There are two main groups of rocks present in the

area:- the Grenville-type metasediments, mainly marble, paragneiss and skarn; and

the later Archaen plutonic rocks, mainly granite, syenite, and gabbro, together

with their gneissic and hybrid equivalents.

The Valentini property is underlain by Glamorgan granite gneisses and pegmatites.

ECONOMIC GEOLOGY

To date all U production from the Bancroft area of SE. Ontario has

come from the pegmatites. However, on at least one of the properties optioned by

Imperial Oil Ltd. (that of Mandarin Mines Ltd. in Adjoining Glamorgan twp.), the

host rocks are large low-grade skarn or marble formations.

PREVIOUS WORK DONE

As mentioned in the above Introduction, the only work done on

this Valentini property prior to this systemmatic sampling by the writer, was the

radiometric survey performed by A. B. Fleming. His grid of 1968 picket lines has

disappeared, except for half a dozen widely dispersed unreadable lath pickets.

Therefore Fleming's anomalies had to be relocated by scintillometer.

There was no evidence of any sampling of outcrops, blasting or diamond drilling

on this 10-claim property, prior to the writer's presently-described sampling.

CURRENT SAMPLING PROGRAM

As the FLeming picket-line grid was unrecognizable to the

writer, the radiometric anomalies had to be relocated by pace and compass measure

ments from geographical landmarks, and the use of a scintillometer. This re-search

was made more difficult by a series of new ponds, swamps and flooded areas caused

by many new beaver dams and a very wet spring season, which created new landmarks

and obliterated old ones. However, all anomalous areas "A" to"M" were relocated except

for anomaly "I".

It is common knowledge that uranium oxide (urania) is very soluble in surface

solutions, especially if acidic, and the U is usually leached considerably from the

bedrock. surf ace to a variable depth, depending on the depth of the water table, the

porosity of the bedrock, structural and fracture patterns in the bedrock, the Ph

of the groundwater, and the type of rock formation.

On this property the radioactive areas are mainly underlain by fresh-looking

massive granite pegmatite dykes and plugs, with a minimum of shearing and fracturing.

Therefore it was concluded by the writer that fresh unleached representative rock

samples could be obtained from a depth of one foot or more below the smooth, hard

glaciated granite pegmatite bedrock surface.

Fleming's survey was performed with readings every 50 feet on a grid with

200' picket-line intervals, using a McPhar TV-3 scintillometer. This instrument was

carried at hip-level, and read the sum of U 4- Th gamma radiation in c. p. m. (counts

per minute). The writer used an Exploranium Corp. of Canada gamma ray scintillometer

model GR-101A, which gives the total U -t- Th radiation in c. p. s. (counts per second).

The intensity of a scintillometer ' s gamma readings depends on the radioactivity

of the bedrock, its distance from the target, the mass effect, the area of its

sodium iodide crystal, its high-gain photomultiplier tube, etc. Therefore it is

almost impossible to relate the readings of one survey to those of another, except

as their function of the local background radiation counts. The writer obtained an

Page 4: 3ioi5swaee3 a.2683 SNOWDON 010

-3-

backgrount count of 5 c. p. s with his instrument in Toronto, and 10 c. p. s.

TI the deeply overburdened areas of the property (away from granite outcrops)

in Snowdon twp. Therefore the 10 c. p. s. reading was used as the BG. (background)

count for this survey. No reading taken at hip level over bedrock outcrop of less

than 30 X BG. was considered significant in the writer's work on this property.

Up to eleven of the highest readings in each anomalous area "A" to "M"

(except for "I" which could not be pin-pointed) were marked with red flagging and

red luminous paint and labelled in the field by the writer, as shown on the

attached maps, for a total of 61 locations to be drilled and blasted by the

contractor, and to be sampled by the writer. The contractor, Mr. Chas. Mortimer

of Washago, Ontario, subsequently drilled and blasted each of the marked bedrock

(or very shallow oberdened) sample locations to a minimum vertical depth of one

foot, so that fresh bedrock samples could later be obtained by the writer.

In due course these 61 fresh bedrock samples were broken and collected by

the writer, the average being over 5 pounds weight. The writer delivered the

samples in batches to the assay laboratory of the Mineral Research Branch of the

Ont. Ministry of Natural Resources at 77 Grenville St., Toronto, for their uranium

determinations .

ASSAY RESULTS

The detailed assay reports on these 61 samples are to be found in

the Appendix to this report. The very highest assay was No. C-l, which gave only

D.024% urania chemically, or 0.48 Ibs. urania per ton of rock. The next best

were 6 samples which assayed only Q.02% urania equivalent (U + Th combined)

radiometrically . Almost all the samples assayed the equivalent of only a trace

of urania. Remember that only the very highest parts of each anomaly were marked

for sampling a t all (by the writer).

Therefore no uranium ore was indicated by this sampling, and no diamond

drilling or further work or expense is warranted on this property.

SUMMARY S. CONCLUSIONS

1. This 10-claim property in Snowdon twp. contains 13 radioactive anomalies caused

by uraniferous granite pegmatites located by A. B. FLeming's scintillometer survey

performed in 1968.

2. These anomalies were relocated by the writer using another scintillometer, and

their 61 "hottest" spots were well marked and labelled by luminous paint and

red flagging.

3. These 61 locations were subsequently plugger-drilled and blasted to a vertical

depth of from l' to 2' by a contractor and his men.

4. The 61 blast-holes were then sampled by the writer, and assayed by the O.M.N.R.

5. None of the 61 fresh samples assayed high enough to make uranium ore. The very

highest chemical assay was Q.024% urania.

6. No further work or expenditures are warranted on this property.

RECOMMENDATIONS

It is recommended by the writer that:-

No further work or money be expended on this property in the search for uranium.

All of which is respectfully submitted,
