The Gem project includes seven
claims and covers 1749 ha (4206
acres)The property is underlain by
folded, sheared and fractured volcanic
and derived sedimentary
rocks of the early Garner, Bidou
and Gem Assemblages that have
been intruded by granite
Older airborne geophysical surveys
focused on identifying massive
sulphides with the volcanic
rocks and would not have detected
quartz veins or low-sulphide shear
zones
Several areas at the GEM and
Gem Lake South showings have
reported grey and white quartz
veins 0.1-1.0m wide and 5m long
containing iron-carbonate, gold
and 1-3% pyrite
Major sinuous shear zones up to
1500m wide and striking north
have been mapped on the property.
