LOCATION

The Specogna Copper p rospec t i s l o c a t e d a t an

of t h e n o r t h e a s t end of Fourth Lake, about 3 km. w e s t

southwest from Labour Day Lake, and abou t 0 . 6 km. n o r t h

of t h e upper reaches of t h e Nanaimo River. I n a s t r a i g h t

l i n e t h i s i s about 40 km. w e s t of Nanaimo on Vancouver

The co-ord ina tes of t h e copper showing are a t

abou t 49O07' N , 124O30 .3 ' W and t h e claims are shown on

map s h e e t s M92F/lW & 2E.

ACCESS

Road access t o the p rope r ty i s good. The s o u t h e r n

claims composed of t h e W02 and W04 claims are c r o s s e d

by logging roads from t h e Nanaimo River d ra inage , wh i l e

p a r t of t h e no r the rn claims can be reached by C r o w n

Zel le rbach logging roads, t emporar i ly washed o u t , from

t h e Cameron River dra inage . The p r o p e r t y is abou t 70

km w e s t by road from t h e main highway a t Cassidy. A

TOPOGRAPHY

Much of t h e p rope r ty consists of h e a v i l y t imbered

slopes be ing a c t i v e l y logged. The area i s mountainous

w i t h steep slopes and many rock b l u f f s making o f f - road

vary from 530 metres t o 1 4 2 6 metres.

CLIMATE

to an interstitial role. Since the chemical compositions of the two samples are similar (see Table I attached), and sample R appears from its texture to have been more slowly cooled than L, then sample R most likely represents the core area of a pillow from the same eruption. The primary mineralogy of the samples as implied by the pseudomorphs now present suggests that both were originally basaltic in composition.
