SUVMARY
The J-dex Raney Township property lies on the west margins
of the Swayze gold belt. The property is underlain by a
metavolcanic sequence including andesitic to basaltic flows,
felsic porphyritic and pyroclastic rocks, thin cherty interflow
metasediments and massive coarse-grained gabbroic flows or
intrusions. Among these the andesitic flows are predominant.
A number of old trenches occur on the property that appear
to be following major shear zones. The mineralization consists
of trace amounts of visible gold, disseminated pyrite, galena,
pyrrhotite with very minor occurrences of sphalerite and
chalcopyrite. The gold mineralization seems to be related to
roughly east-west trending fault and shear zones with associated
quartz-carbonate veins. Both along and near the fault zones
there has been extensive carbonatization. At present, a wirikie
drilling program on the J-dex gold property in Raney Township has
uncovered similar gold mineralization at depth within quartz
carbonatized veins filling dilatent zones along major faults,
similar to significant gold deposits within the Swayze Gold Belt.
A line cutting and geological mapping survey was conducted
in June, 1984 and from August lith to August 17th, 1984
respectively on the J-dex Raney property in the Swayze Gold Belt.
The property consists of 18 contiguous unpatented mining claims
located in the southwestern corner of Raney Township. the
property lies approximately 50 kilometres southwest of Foleyet
and lies within an important gold belt.
Personnel employed on the program included lan Coster,
B.Se., Geology and Nadia Caira, B.Sc., Geology who carried out
the mapping program on a cut grid of approximately 32.4
kilometres. Ihe grid was cut in June, 1984 by employees of J-dex
Mining and Exploration, 81 Balsam Street South, Timmins, Ontario.
The claim group covers approximately 800 acres of mining land.
The claim numbers are as follows: 551785, 551787 to 551791
all inclusive; 796605 and 796606; 537277 to 537283 all inclusiveSS\?4b
and nXTP.rrr.; 501022; and 796604. A good portion of claims 537280,
537278, 501022, and 796604 are covered by lakes.
Geological mapping was done on a cut grid having an easterly
trending baseline zero in the center of the claim group on the
northern part of claims 551790, 551791, 796606, 796605 and
537282, with north-south trending lines 100 metres apart. The
lines were picketed every 25 metres. A tieline, TL700S was cut
east across the southern part of claims 551785, 557787 to 551789
inclusive, approximately 700 metres south of the baseline. A

second short tieline, TL 1000N was cut east across the northern
part of claim 537277. Two more short tielines, TL200N and TL150S
were cut east across claims 537281 and 537279 and claim 796605
and part of claim 804657 to enable access around a small lake
near the baseline. These tielines are 200 metres north and 150
metres south of the baseline zero.
It is the purpose of this report to discuss the findings of
the geological survey and the lithogeochemical results.
Recommendations for further work to locate gold drilling targets
are included following discussion of this material.
LOGVTICN AND ACCESS
The J-dex Mining and Exploration, Raney Township property is
located in the south central part of Raney Township in the Swayze
Gold Belt, Porcupine Mining Division, approximately 49.6
kilometres southwest of the town of Foleyet, Ontario (see Figure
1). The property ties onto the northeast corner of Raney Lake
and extends eastward for approximately 2500 metres.
There is no direct road access into Raney Township. The
property is accessible via float plane leased at Ivanhoe Lake
with Theriault Air Services, which is 100 kilometres southwest of
Tinmins, or at Chapleau with Fellows Air Services which is
approximately 190 kilometres southwest of Timnins.
Timber roads extend south from Foleyet to within 10
kilometres of the claim group (see Figure 2).

TOPOGRAPHY AND VEGETATION
The topography in the map area consists of low, flat lying
swampy areas interspersed with rolling more rugged areas with
good rock exposures. Scattered outcrop occurs over approximately
l (H of the property.
The Raney township property is flanked by Raney Lake to the
southwest, Duck Lake to the north and by Long Lake to the south.
A series of small lakes trend northeast through the northern part
of the property.
Vegetation consists of mainly spruce, balsam, birch and
poplar, with cedar and alder in more swampy areas.
PREVIOUS W3RK
The Swayze gold belt has been intermittently explored over a
time span of about 80 years. Most of the interest has centered
on gold but base metals have been searched for as well.
Current exploration activity has been directed to the search
of gold mineralization. Some of the more prominent gold
exploration activity has been by; Orofina east of Raney township;
Quinterra Resources in Tooms and Greenlaw townships southwest of
Raney township; and by Carlson Mines in Rollo township. This
activity has discovered significant gold values within chert and
quartz-carbonate zones within basalts. These occurrences coupled
with many known gold occurrences in the Swayze Gold Belt implies
- 4 -
a good environment to search for gold deposits.
The following sunmnary of the previous work in the area has
been abstracted from assessment work files and reports from
others who have worked in the area. Figure No. 2 shows the
location of the J-dex Raney township claim group relative to
neighbouring townships along the Swayze gold belt.
A review of the assessment work files in the Timmins
Resident Geologist's office reveals that sporadic exploration has
been carried out on the J-dex property in the northeast corner of
Raney Lake. It is as follows:
1983 218' of winkie drilling in one hole. Visible gold withdisseminated galena, pyrite, tourmaline within an east-west trending fault zone with associated quartz-carbonate veins.
1982 Magnetic and VLF surveys by J-dex Mining and Explora tion Ltd. and Ingamar Resources.
Sporadic exploration has been carried out on properties in
the immediate vicinity located east and southeast of the J-dex
Raney Township claim group. This work is briefly summarized as
follows:

REGIONAL GEOLOGY
Raney Township is situated in the western end of the Abitibi
greenstone belt and is underlain by Early Precambrian (Archean)
supracrustal rocks of volcanic and sedimentary origin. The
supracrustal rocks have been intruded by Archean felsic and mafic
intrusives. The plutonic rocks occupy the southwestern corner
and the northwestern portion of the township.
The youngest rocks are lamprophyre dikes, that may possibly
occupy pre-existing faults. The dikes are believed to be Late
Jurassic to Early Cretaceous in age. The next youngest rocks are
believed to be the felsic intrusives. These rocks have been
interpreted by Thurston, Siragusa and Sage to be Early
Precambrian in age, and include massive to weakly foliated
biotite and hornblende trondhjemite, granodiorite and minor
quartz diorite. These rocks were not encountered on the J-dex
Raney property. The next youngest rocks are the felsic to
intermediate metavolcanics including felsic porphyritic and
pyroclastic rocks with thin cherty interflow metasediments.
These rocks occurred throughout a large portion of the J-dex
Raney property.

The oldest rocks in Raney Township are mafic to intermediate
metavolcanics including basaltic to andesitic flows, pillow
lavas, and gabbroic coarse-grained flows or intrusions. Among
these the andesitic flows are predominant. The J-dex Raney
property is thought, by the authors, to lie within the Swayze -
Deloro metavolcanic - metasedimentary belt, which is part of the
Abitibi Subprovince.
The rocks of the Swayze - Deloro metavolcanic -
metasedimentary belt generally have foliations and schistocities
parallel or at low angles to the bedding and banding. Well
foliated rocks occurred sporadically throughout the J-dex Raney
property. The foliation was not discernable in the more massive
varieties of the mafic metavolcanics.
Secondary lineations are relatively common in the
metavolcanic - metasedimentary belts in the map area including
elongated pyroclastic fragments, small scale crenulations and
elongated clasts in detrital rocks. Several of these secondary
lineations were seen on the J-dex Raney property.
A lack of outcrop throughout most of the Swayze Deloro map
area makes the positive defining of faults a difficult process.
Strike-slip faults exist throughout the map area together with
east-trending shear zones. More major north-northwest to
northwest striking faults are conspicuous throughout the
metavolcanic - metasedimetary belt. Throughout the Swayze -
Deloro belt, the faulting is indicated by abrupt discontinuities
- 8 -
in the felsic metavolcanic units, similar to that on the J-dex
Raney property.
PROPERTY GEOLOGY
The J-dex Raney property is underlain by metavolcanic and
metasedimentary rocks of the Swayze - Deloro belt. The
metavolcanic sequence includes andesitic to basaltic flows,
pillowed flows, felsic to intermediate porphyritic and
on the J-dex Raney property of the mafic metavolcanics
package is 900 metres. Compositionally the rocks range
from andesitic to basaltic to gabbroic.
The massive to foliated fine-grained rocks that
are andesitic to basaltic in composition seem to be the
most cannon.
- 16 -
Unit la Basalt to Andesite Flows
These rocks vary from light green-grey to a dark
green depending on distances from faults and/or felsic
volcanic contacts. The rocks often contain varying
proportions of chlorite, sericite, epidote and
carbonate.
These rocks may occur as thin beds (less than 100
metres) intercalated with the felsic to intermediate
pyroclastics. More corrmonly thin (less than 15 metre)
beds of sheared felsic pyroclastics (Unit 2a) occur
intercalated with the mafic metavolcanics.
Unit la (f) Chlorite - Carbonate Schist
These rocks were seen in several localities on the
property. They are thought to be foliated and/or
sheared andesitic to basaltic flows (Unit la). The
rocks are dark green and contain varying amounts of
chlorite, altered plagioclase, sericite, epidote and
carbonate. The trend of the foliation tends to
parallel the bedding attitudes. Intense
carbonatization and trace amounts of pyrite and
pyrrhotite were seen, often associated with major shear
zones on line 3 west at 200 south and on line 5 east at
300 south.
- 17 -
Unit Ib Basalt to Andesite Pillow Lava
This unit was seen on TL 130 south at 075 metres
west. The rock weathers a dark brown green colour and
is medium to dark green on fresh surfaces. The rock is
thought to be andesitic to basaltic in composition,
weathers rusty, and contains chloritic pillow margins.
Stringers of white cherty quartz also occupy some
pillow interstices and fractures. The pillows are
deformed so that they are no value as stratigraphic top
indicators although, good pillows were seen south of
Raney Township indicating tops as north. Pillows range
from 20cm x 10cm to 90 cm x 30 cm and are stretched 3:1
long to short axis. The occassional gas cavity was
seen and was filled with quartz. Alteration minerals
included chlorite, carbonate and epidote.
Unit le Gabbro (coarse-grained flows or intrusions)
These rocks are interbedded with the andesitic to
basaltic rocks in the southeastern corner of the
property. The rock is composed of plagioclase,
amphiboles, pyroxenes, with minor biotite, quartz,
magnetite, epidote, chlorite and carbonate. Outcrops
are massive, and weather speckled due to pyroxene
phenocrysts. The rocks are thought, by the authors, to
- 18 -
be coarse-grained flows, (possibly iron tholeiites)
intimately associated with the finer-grained andesitic
to basaltic flows.
STRUCTURAL GEOLOGY
Throughout the Swayze gold belt, the major structural
feature is the east trending syncline which generally parallels
the strike of the metavolcanic - metasedimentary sequence.
Faulting and shearing accompanied the folding with later
shears localized along zones of sericite-chlorite and carbonate
alteration.
Several north trending faults and east trending shears were
located on the J-dex Raney property by:
1. air photo and topographic lineaments.
2. strucutural offset and discontinuity in layered rocks in particular, sudden changes in foliation- bedding attitudes.
3. the presence of shearing within felsic interbeds.
4. the presence of zones of hydrothermal alteration e.g. carbonatization, silicification, sericitiza tion, hematization.
5. the presence of slickensided joint planes.
The most prominent north trending fault occurs between line
6W and line 4W and offsets a thin cherty metasediment bed at 300
north on lines 5W and 6W by approximately 75 metres. The other
north and east trending faults on the property were located by
- 19 -
airphoto and topographic lineaments and by hydrothermal
alteration including carbonatization, silicification and
sericitization.
East-southeast shearing was located in several localities on
the property and generally followed lithologic contacts. The
most cannon trend is 1100,. The presence of shearing is indicated
by slickensided joint planes, a strong schistocity and
hydrothermal alteration including sericitization and
carbonatization. Shearing was located at:
1. Line 700W at 175N2. Line 500W at SOON3. Line 500E at 300S4. Line 1300E at 300S
Foliations throughout the property are parallel or
subparallel to the bedding attitudes. Foliation-bedding ranges
from OSO0 to 135 9 and dips between 70" and 900 to the north. The
foliation is defined by orientation of platy minerals such as
biotite, sericite, chlorite and carbonate and by the flattening
of pyroclastic fragments.
ALTERATION AND MINERALIZATICN - ECONOMIC GEOLOGY
The gold mineralization on the J-dex Raney property seems to
be related to roughly east-southeast (110P ) trending shear zones
within hydrothermally altered feldspar porphyries (Unit 2d) and
altered dacitic tuffs (Unit 2a), that contain associated
- 20 -
quartz-carbonate veins. Along or near the shear zones there has
been extensive carbonatization with local potassic metasomatism
which takes the form of sericitization, a buff, yellow-white
sericite is cannon.
Gold was seen in Area l around line 5W at SOON and in Area 2
around line 7W at 150N. The gold occurs as free gold in quartz -
carbonate veins, the main veins are steeply dipping to the north
with associated veinlets and stringers also carrying significant
gold values. The veins also contained disseminated galena,
pyrite with minor chalcopyrite and sphalerite. Trace amounts of
pyrrhotite were also seen, as well as scattered seams of fine
black tourmaline (?) or biotite.
The major veins in Area l and Area 2 seem to parallel the
major foliation which strikes east-southeast and dips steeply to
the north. the veins are filling di latent "pinch and swell"
zones and may range from 3cm to 90cm along strike. The veins are
difficult to trace and in several locations, appear to pinch out
completely. Several areas of interest occur on the J-dex Raney
property, and are as follows:
Area l (see Figure 7 for detailed map)
Previous trenching in this area at around Line 5W
at 300 north has exposed an auriferous quartz vein that
assayed up to an ounce/ton gold. The quartz-carbonate
vein has been extensively trenched along 110" Az for a
length of 75 metres parallel to the strike.
- 21 -
The white quartz-carbonate vein is hosted within a
dacitic crystal tuff (Unit 2a) and lapilli tuff (Unit
2b). Alteration envelopes around the vein range f ran
2cm to 10cm in width varying with the size of the vein.
The alteration away from the vein includes an intense
sericitization of the dacitic tuff, forming a strongly
foliated sericite schist, then an intensely
carbonatized, silicified zone with brown carbonate
stringers, and finally a moderately to weakly
carbonatized dacitic tuff. The rocks within this area
exhibit minor slickensided joint planes.
Mineralization within the vein includes free gold,
galena, pyrite, pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite. Trace
amounts of free gold were seen within the dacitic tuff
near the vein contact.
The vein is a "pinch and swell" type, with
associated cherty chalcedonic quartz stringers, and
varies in width from 3cm to 90cm over the strike
length. Due to the veins' sinuoidal nature, it changes
strike from 120* to 102P throughout the trench. At 15E
along DD Line SOON (see Figure 7) the vein branches off
trending 0729 . Tne vein at this point is 5cm wide and
was lost in the overburden approximately l metre from
where the main vein branches.
At this time, three winkie drill holes have been
- 22 -
drilled to various depths in Area l in hope of
encountering more auriferous quartz carbonate veins or
important hydrothermally altered rock containing
significant gold values. The holes are as follows:
1. DDH at 22E on DD Line SOON, Az: uncertain, Dip: -60P , depth: 218'2. DDH at 15E (A) on ED Line 300N, Az: 210*, Dip: -45*, depth :236'3. DDH at 15E (B) on DD Line SOON, Az: 210* Dip: -679,, depth: incomplete
The first hole encountered various zones of
quartz-carbonate veins and stringers. These assayed
from .005 oz/ton over 5 feet to .025 oz/ton over 5 feet
to 0.11 oz/ton over l foot. Various other quartz -
sericite - carbonate alteration zones assayed 0.065
oz/ton over 2 feet. Brecciated dacitic tuff sections,
that are highly carbonatized and contain from 2-5%
disseminated pyrite assayed 0.015 oz/ton over 3 feet.
Visible gold was seen in two areas within
quartz-carbonate veins, at 150 feet and at 161'5".
Visible gold was also seen on surface in the Area l
trench within quartz-carbonate veins and within the
carbonatized dacitic tuff.
The second winkie drill hole DDH 15E (A)
encountered similar mineralization and alteration with
several areas of visible free gold within the quartz
carbonate veins. This hole has not been assayed yet.
At 38' a l foot wide quartz-carbonate vein was noted,
- 23 -
containing several blebs of visible gold with
associated pyrite. At 104' to 143' an intense
alteration occurs including intense sericitization,
silicification and carbonatization. Disseminated
pyrite and pyrite fragments up to l cm in width occur
up to 51 throughout this zone.
The third hole in Area l is still in progress.
Area 2 (see Figure 8 for detailed map)
Previous trenching in this area has exposed an
auriferous quartz vein around line 7W at 150 north.
This quartz-carbonate vein has been extensively
trenched along a variable strike trend for a length of
35 metres. Smaller trenches across the strike of the
vein also were done in hopes of finding other stringers
off of the main vein. In most cases, overburden was
encountered. The white quartz-carbonate veins are
hosted within a sheared, hydrothemally altered
feldspar porphyry (Unit 2d) that reportedly assayed
0.17 oz/ton Au when sampled by Falconbridge over 7 feet
(D.O. Baker, personal communication). Alteration
envelopes around the vein range from 3cm to 15cm,
varying with the size of the vein. The vein is
following a shear zone within the feldspar porphyry
composed of a sericitic, intensely carbonatized,
silicified zone with varying amounts of
- 24 -
quartz-carbonate stringers. The rocks within this area
have minor slickensided joint planes. The main
direction of shearing is between 60 0 to 90" changing
with the bedding-foliations. Mineralization within the
vein included free gold, galena, and pyrite.
Similar to Area l, these quar t z-carbonate veins
are filling di latent zones forming a "pinch and swell"
nature. Due to the veins' sinuoidal nature, the strike
to the vein varies from 050* to 067* and dips between
65P north to 85 0 south and varies in width from 2cm to
13cm. Fine -Clmm black chlorite or tourmaline seams
occur within the quar t z-carbonate veins. Previous grab
samples from within the vein assayed up to an ounce
gold per ton. Three more rock grab samples of the
quartz-carbonate vein were taken during the geological
survey. The results are not available at this time.
Area 3 (See Figure 6 for location)
In the southeast corner of the property on line 5E
at 300 south, a 50-10 metre wide shear zone occurs
along the contact between sheared Unit 2a(f) Quartz -
Sericite - Carbonate Schist and sheared Unit la(f)
Chlorite - Carbonate Schist. The northeast trending
shear is following the schistosity at 1350,y70p north.
The zone is composed of a yellow-white, strongly
schistose quartz - sericite schist that is intensely
- 25 -
carbonatized. It is interbedded with a sheared
chlorite - carbonate schist with intense brown
carbonate parallel to schistosity. Trace amounts of
pyrrhotite occurs within this rock. Two rock grab
samples were taken within this zone and are being
geochemically analyzed for gold (ppb). The results are
not available at this time. If significant gold values
occur within this shear zone, te area should be
trenched along the strike of the zone to gain a
significant strike length to the zone.
Area 4 (see Figure 5 for location)
In the western portion of the claim group around
Lines 8W, 9W and 10W at 200 to 300N a prominent,
roughly east-northeast trending shear zone occurs for a
traceable strike length of up to 300 metres within a
felsic tuff (Unit 2a). The schistocity and trend of
the zone averages at 07O0 and is dipping vertically.
The shear zone has hydrothennally altered the
rocks to a quartz - sericite - carbonate schist that
has a strongly developed fissility. Trace amounts of
fine pyrite occurs in this area. Just north of the
shear zone on Line 8W at 300 north a 6" wide rusty
quartz-carbonate vein occurs within a fairly massive
felsic tuff (Unit 2a). A total of four samples were
taken within this zone, one of which included this
- 26 -
vein. If the sanples return significant gold values,
the area should be trenched along strike of the vein
and he shear zone. Sanple results are not available at
this time.

Dear Sir:
Enclosed are two copies of a Notice of Intent with statements listing a reduced rate of assessment work credits to be allowed for a technical survey. Please forward one copy to the recorded holder of the claims and retain the other. In approximately fifteen days from the above date, a final letter of approval of these credits will be sent to you. On receipt of the approval letter, you may then change the work entries on the claim record sheets.For further information, if required, please contact Mr. R.J. Pichette at 416/965-4888.
Yours sincerely,

Notice of Intent
for Technical Reports 1984 11 13
2.7320/437/84
An examination of your survey report indicates that the requirements of The Ontario Mining Act have not been fully met to warrant maximum assessment work credits. This notice is merely a warning that you will not be allowed the number of assessment work days credits that you expected and also that in approximately 15 days from the above date, the mining recorder will be authorized to change the entries on his record sheets to agree with the enclosed statement. Please note that until such time as the recorder actually changes the entry on the record sheet, the status of the claim remains unchanged.
If you are of the opinion that these changes by the mining recorder will jeopardize your claims, you may during the next fifteen days apply to the Mining and Lands Commissioner for an extension of time. Abstracts should be sent with your application.
If the reduced rate of credits does not jeopardize the status of the claims then you need not seek relief from the Mining and Lands Commissioner and this Notice of Intent may be disregarded.
If your survey was submitted and assessed under the "Special Provision-Performance and Coverage" method and you are of the opinion that a re-appraisal under the "Man-days" method would result in the approval of a greater number of days credit per claim, you may, within the said fifteen day period, submit assessment work breakdowns listing the employees names, addresses and the dates and hours they worked. The new work breakdowns should be submitted direct to the Land Management Branch, Toronto. The report will be re-assessed and a new statement of credits based on actual days worked will be issued.
