Focused on the Rice Lake Gold Belt
kinda think thats funny Andy. I recall the old days ( back at sh ) when some of the boys West of Ont, would call me X- box. I guess that moose pasture is starting to look pretty good.

INTRODUCTION
....Andy, read this file and you will find the areas on the Belt that have the Ross Pluton chemicals in their drill core. The magnetic image i posted shows these structures and veins being highly magnetic. T he image can be overlain on google earth and one can follow these structures going EastWest. The report gives detail on each area and their chemical stucture. I guess finding the Traps containing the gold is the key. Look at the mag. picture as this eye sits West East with two exit points...Traps7
This field trip will examine the main lithostratigraphic assemblages and structural
settings of gold deposits in the Rice Lake greenstone belt in Uchi Subprovince. A circa
2.93 Ga quartzite-bearing continental platform assemblage and a circa 2.87 Ga
komatiite-bearing mafic plain assemblage will be examined near Wallace and Garner
Lakes respectively. An arc assemblage of circa 2.73 Ga mafic flows, intermediate
volcanic rocks and synvolcanic intrusions of the Rice Lake Group, host to most gold
deposits in the district, will be viewed in the Wadhope and Bissett areas. A slightly
younger and more felsic, shallow-water volcanic assemblage composed of ignimbrites,
tuffs and mafic flows will be visited near the Manigotagan River where it is overlain by
turbidites of the Edmunds Lake Formation, possibly representing a fore-arc
assemblage. The youngest rocks in the belt, cross-bedded arenites of the San Antonio
Formation, will be examined in the Bissett area where they unconformably overlie the
Rice Lake Group. The settings of San Antonio, Central Manitoba and Gunnar gold
deposits will receive particular attention during the trip.
