Gold Mineralization E-W striking stockwork of qtz-carb veins developed along sub-parallel high strain zones in HW of SLDZ Strong biotite alteration g/t Au 1 cm SLDZ
Vein Geometry – 280°/90° Qtz-carb veins generally strike E-W with steep dips, up to several cm’s thick, contain visible gold and are variably deformed Qtz-carb stockwork overprinted by auriferous Py- Po-Cpy veins and aggregates, preferentially deposited in low-stress structural sites 8 Average vein orientation 280/ g/t Au 2.2 g/t Au
