INTRODUCTION AND HISTORY

The property consists of one unpatented mining claim in the lake on the southwest shore of Bad Vermillion Lake approximately one mile south of Mine Centre, Ontario. The south shore of the lake is the south boundary of the claim. On the shore is patented claim J041. The remains of the old mill of the Golden Star mine are located on the shore of the lake. An estimated 35,000 tons of tailings were dumped into the lake during the operation of the mill during the period of 1897 to 1901. The mine was 2,700 feet south of the lake.

GEOLOGY

The rock of the area is a series of changing formations. The gold bearing formation of the Golden Star Mine is a massive porphyry and volcanic greenstone of Huronian age cut by numerous dykes of greenstone and felsite, bounded on the south by a conglomerate and protogine (a type of irruptive granite). The conglomerate is the oldest of these formations. To the north the rock is a felsite schist becoming progressively harder northward extending to the shoreline of Bad Vermillion Lake.

ACCESS TO PROPERTY

From the Mine Centre Garage on Highway 11, a road goes to the lake and a dock 1/4 mile south. The claim is a 1/2 mile south of Highway 11.

CLAIM DETAIL

The claim number is K.488949It is unsurveyed and joins J041 on the shore of Bad

Vermillion Lake immediately to the south. The work was performed by Montand Contractors Limited.

PERSONEL

The survey was carried out by J.E. Nelson, J.S. Nelson, lan Matthews and Dave Dyson. Fefc^uft/-/;^//? 7 4 "t O P\b*ch i. /H7*?

METHOD OF SURVEY

A picket line grid was laid out on the ice and stations marked with laths. There was one base line and cross picket lines were laid out every hundred feet and pickets were established at 100 foot intervals along the picket lines.

Readings were taken in gammas of the vertical component of the earth's magnetic field (non-absolute), by the means of an ARVELA MAGNETOMETER. Readings were taken at 100 foot intervals along the picket lines. Total baseline and picket line mileage was 3.75 miles. Magnetic readings were taken and plotted on the map. All readings were corrected for

diurnal and day-to-day effects before plotting. The instrument was checked into the magnetic control point shown on the map past the west boundary of the claim, five times daily.

RESULT OF MAGNETIC SURVEY

The readings were uniform and flat showing so anomalous conditions.

CONCLUSIONS

There are no magnetically mineralized zones indicated which could be potential drilling targets. Diamond drilling on this claim is eliminated.

INTRODUCTION AND HISTORY

The property consists of one unpatented mining claim in the lake on the southwest shore of Bad Vermillion Lake, approx imately one mile south of Mine Centre, Ontario. The south shore of the lake is the south boundary of the claim. On the shore is patented claim J041. The remains of the old mill of the Golden Star mine are located on the shore of the lake. An est imated 35,000 tons of tailings were dumped into the lake during the operation of the mill during the period of 1897 to 1901. The mine was 2,700 feet south of the lake.

GEOLOGY

The rock of the area is a series of changing formations. The gold-bearing formation of the Golden Star Mine is a massive porphyry and volcanic greenstone of Huronian age cut by numerous dykes of greenstone and felsite, bounded on the south by a con glomerate and protogine ( a type of irruptive granite). The conglomerate is the oldest of these formations. To the north the rock is a felsite schist becoming progressively harder northward extending to the shoreline of Bad Vermillion Lake.

OBJECT OF WORK PERFORMED

To survey bottom of the Lake for rock outcroppings and the type of bottom and to determine extent of tailings in the lake and the depth of overburden.

ACCESS TO PROPERTY

From the Mine Centre Garage on Highway 11, a road goes to the lake and a dock a 1/4 mile south. The claim is a 1/2 mile south of Highway 11.

SERSONEL

The work was performed by qualified divers, John Girard, Jeff Nelson, J.E. Nelson, A. Hannah, and D. Cava. Leo Syrja was the cook.

WORK PERFORMED

The crew worked dredging and diving, surveying the lake bottom. They completed the work on September 17, 197fi.

The area of the tailing dump was tested for depth of water and extent of the tailing dump. This shown by drawing 2.

Dredging was performed on tail dump area in five major dredging locations. The tailings became fluid and kept flowing into the dredging sites. It was very difficult to get down to the bottom. This was achieved in only 2 cases. Locations one and two. Scuba divers were used to make traverses of the claim in an organized manner. Traverses were made every 200' starting at the number two post going north for approx. 500' into the lake. Seven traverses were made. It was found that the water was averaging about 15 feet deep 200 ' out in the lake. The water gradually became deeper. The bootom is clay and sand except near the shore. Sand was covering clay in some places with varying thickness up to several feet. Five hundred feet from shore, the water varied in depth, some deep spots over 40'.

Concentrates from dredge table mats were removed by washing in five gallon pails. Concentrates were further concentrated in the Global Orbiter and assayed. The concentrats were examined by mictroscope to check for presence of free gold and sulphides. Various assays were done for gold content.

CONCLUSIONS

Gold was confirmed to be present in the sand and gravel of the lake bottom and shores. Sulphides are usually present in minor amounts. Very little free gold was found, however it is present under the microscope in polished sections made at Lakehead University vy Mr. Ron Bennet. Because of placer probabilities future diving and test work will be done.

Gold from dredge concentrates tested at l.OSOz./ton.

Tailings averaged from sites. Sites 1,2 and 3 tested at 0.32 Sites 4 and 5 tested at 0.25 Sand PR-1 assayed nil

FURTHER WORK DONE

During January, February, March and April of 1979 the bus was located on ice as shown on accompanying maps. A building with a diesel lighting plant, Triffley concentrating table, grumman rupp pumps etc. was set up. A magnetometer survey was performed. Drilling was done by Robert Dodds Ltd. to determine

1.0 INTRDDUCnCN

D. H. Annala, on February 21st, 1979, oormiissioned Robert Dodds Limited [

to undertake an investigation at a mine tailings dunp located on

Bad Vermilion Lake, approximately 2 km. (1.5 mi.) south of the

settlement of Mine Centre, Ontario. The site is designated as Mining

Claim K488949 of the Kenora Mining Division, District of Rainy River,

owned by J. E. Nelson and Associates. It is entirely a water claim.

Details of the surrounding claims at the time of the investigation arei

shown on Mining Maps M2474 and M2433 of the Kenora District and reprodi

in part in this report on Drawing No. 1.

Ihe purpose of this investigation was threefold:

1. To assess the aerial extent and thickness, hence the volume

of the tailings, and the quality of the tailings with

respect to gold content;

2. To assess the feasibility of mining, concentrating and

refining the tailings to produce marketable gold, including

reoonmending methods of doing so;

3. To discuss any associated problems, with respect to mining

methods and environmental concerns of the proposed operations.

3.0 SITE CESCRIPTICN AND GEOLOGY

The site is located on the south shore of Bad Vermillion Lake as shown

on Drawing No. 1. Present on the site was a bus converted to living

quarters as well as a building housing a test concentrating table, global

orbitor, power generator and work area. Access to the work site for the

drilling unit was via a plowed road over the snow and ice- covered

lake from a point west of the village of Mine Centre, on the north

shore of Bad Vermillion Lake.

The rock of the area is a series of changing formations. The gold- beard

formation of the Golden Star Mine is a massive porphyry and volcanic

greenstone of Huronian age cut by numerous dykes of greenstone and

felsite, bounded on the south by a conglomerate and protogine, ( a type

of irruptive granite). The conglomerate is the oldest of these formations,

To the north the rock is a felsite schist becoming progressively harder

northward extending to the shoreline of Bad Vermillion Lake.

4.0 FIEU3WORK

The fieldwork, carried out between February 21st and March 2nd, 1979,

consisted of advancing 23 boreholes over the tailings area by washboring

methods, using a Longyear 24 Drilling Unit equipped for soils sampling

and testing. Drilling was carried out from the ice surface. Standard

penetration testing was performed on a continuous basis at most locations

in order to assess the depth and extent of the subnerged tailings and

to obtain representative samples. Dynamic cone penetration testing only

was carried out at other locations in order to determine depth to the

underlying rock. At one location, two bulk samples representing the

entire thickness of the tailings stratum were obtained following a

continuous sampling operation. Shear strength parameters were obtained

in the cohesive material encountered by in- situ testing methods, for

the design of possible mining methods.t

Sampling, in- situ testing and borehole positioning was conducted under

the direct supervision of an experienced geologist of this firm.

All samples obtained were returned to our laboratory for further

examination and testing.

5.3 Interpretation of Findings

Drawing No. 3 is a thickness contour map of the tailings (sand),

which has been drawn based on the observations within the twenty- three

boreholes and from geological evidence found and inferred.

Further calculations, based on this map, result in a volume of

235,212 ft.^ of tailings contained. Assuming an average dry unit weight

of 100 pcf, the total weight of tailings to be found in this area is

11,760 Tons, approximately 1/3 of the 35,000 Tons reported to have

been dumped from the old mining operations.

Records of tailings dumping processes are not available at this time.

Waste was either dumped by a conveyor system from a height in a '

single pile, or piped out in a slurry at lake level or slightly*

above.

Should the first method have been used, two explanations for the

diminishmant of the tailings are apparent:

1. A slope or foundation failure of the cone- shaped pile,

removing tailings to great depths beyond the shallow depths

6.0 PROCESSING OF TAILINGS OCNT'D

6.2 Concentrating cent'd

The concentration of Xanthate used in roost flotation processes is in the

order of 50 ppm or less. Some of the Xanthate is removed with the

concentrate.

It is suspected that sane of the gold in the tailings will occur as

free gold. Therefore in order to effect high recoveries it would be

necessary to pass the slurry for the flotation process over fibre

riffles or other similar methods in order to trap the free gold.

The flotation process will generally concentrate the tailings in the

ratio of between 10:1 and 30:1. In other words, for every 300 Tons

of tailings processed there would be between 10 and 30 Tons of

concentrate. At this stage it is considered nore feasible to ship the

concentrate to an operating mill for smelting rather than attempting

to set up a smelter on site.

Reference Number R79109

8.0 REXXMMENDATICNS

Due to the relatively small volume of the tailings deposit consideration

should be given to processing waste rock and tailings from other sites

in the area. This would involve transporting the ore to the concentrator

or moving the concentrator to the site. The latter alternative has the

disadvantage of requiring a new tailings disposal site with its inherent

environmental problems.

The feasibility of reprocessing the tailings at this site will depend

primarily upon:

1. Availability and efficiency of a portable concentrator.

2. Availability of an existing smelter.

3. Costs of engineering, licensing, equipment, concentrating,

transportation, smelting and clean- up.

4. Quality of concentrate and price smelter will pay, for the

delivered concentrates.

5.. World price of gold.

6. Availability of Federal and Provincial Government assistance.
