Structural Geology â€" The interpretation of the geolomcal structure in the area is impeded by lack of rock exposures and the uniformity of rock types over most of the country. The tracing of horizons of iron formaâ€" tion, however, is proving to be of conâ€" sidgerable use in showing the deformaâ€" tion of the region. By this method it has been found that the formation immediately north of the Pickle Crow mine has been folded into a syncline, the axis of which strikes about N. 45 degrees E. The axial plane is overâ€" to the north with a dip of about degrees. North and east of the mine lm'ync‘!lnenosesout and a series of measurements taken on nose ‘the folds indicates that it plunges to the northeast at an angle somewhere This rock assemblage is intruded by irregularly shaped bodies and dikes of granite, porphyry, and lamprophyre. two gdistinct types of porphyry occur, a sheared quartz porphyry and massive syenite or quartzâ€"feldspar porphyry. North of the Central Patricia mine are sillâ€"like bodits and dikes of quartz porâ€" phyry, which show various degrees of shearing and alteration to quartzâ€" sericite schist. An elongated body of massive quartg; porphyry occurs near the northwestern extremity of the Alâ€" bany River and Winoga Patricia claims. West of the Albany River shaft is a small stock of massive quartz feldspar porphyry. Small syenite porphyry dikes are occasionally found. The lamâ€" prophyre cuts the granite of the area, and a lamporphyre dike cuts the main vein at the Pickle Crow mine. A diaâ€" base dike runs southeastward across the Central Patricia claims east of. the mine and is presumably Keweenawan in age. > The bands of iron formstion range from tiny patches only a few inches wide lying between lava flows to bodies two or three hundred feet in width that may be traced for several miles. The traceable horizons may pinch and swell or even die out at various. places along the strike but are sufficiently continuous to provide marker horizons in the greenstone complex; they afford the only reliable clues to the details of structure in the rock formations.. Most of the area is underlain by Keeâ€" watin rocks, chiefly basic volcanics. Interbanded with these lavas are bands of iron formation, agglomerate, tuff, and volcanic breccia. The lavas are fairly massive and commonly show pilâ€" low structures, but may be locally sheared and dragâ€"folded. In a few places bands of diorite strike parallel to the general trend of the lavas and are probably sillâ€"like intrusives of about the same age and composition as the flows. (By Jas. E. Thomson) During the past sunmer, a detailed geological examination was made : of most of the properties being actively developed in the Pickleâ€"Crow area. These extend for about nine miles from the Gateway Patricia claims on the west to the Kaw Crow Patricia proâ€" perty on the east.

GOOD WOOD For Sale At Reasonable Prices NEW TRANSEER Timmins l | Adopting a somewhat different view of the conditions, the property of Minâ€" eral Estates, Ltd., was acquired on the expectation that the extension of the sediments continues westerly through the townships of Mountjoy, Godfrey and Turnbull, ard octhers to the southâ€" west. Taking the broad view of the exâ€" ploration possibilities, should such a _condition be proven, sponsors of Minerâ€" al Estates, Ltd., acquired more than 20 square miles of territory in the townâ€" ships of Mountjoy, Godfrey, Turnbull, Carscallen, Bristol and Ogden. Then came a programme which has emâ€" braced every modern prospecting pracâ€" tice, directed by an organization espeâ€" clally qualifiedâ€"the staff of Mining Research Corporation, Ltd. Where practicable, surface work was done, and some major vein occurrences were disclosed, in some of which very high gold returns were reported. At other sections of the holdingsâ€"which extend for some 14 miles west of Timâ€" minsâ€"the amount of overburden dicâ€" tated different methods. For structural information some diamond drilling was done, and this work definitely indicated that the sedimentary belt could be traced on the Mountjoy township claims. Then followed a geophysical survey, by which method large areas can be mapped and rock structures deâ€" fined without the costly work of trenchâ€" ing and sinking test pits through the overburder. This survey, as mentioned, is the largest contract ever undertaken in Canada and was carried out by Hans Lundberg, Ltd., recognized as the ‘eadâ€" ing organization offering such technical service. The geophysical survey has now a presumed strike somewhat to the southwest. A very large amount of deâ€" velopment fungs has been expended by some of the foremost operators on the continent along such a premise, and without any outstanding success. A review of the situation to date may be of assistance in interpreting the sigâ€" nificance of anticipated success. It has lorng been held that the belt of Timisâ€" kaming sedimentsâ€"with which are asâ€" sociated the major producers of the faâ€" mous Porcupine campâ€"would be found to extend westward from the present recognized productive area. There was among geologists and engineetrs a disâ€" position to seek such extension alonzg R (From Pinancial Review) With the announcement of plans for an immediate and comprehensive diaâ€" mond drilling campaizn for the holdâ€" ings of Mineral Estates, Ltd., in the Porcupine field, the operation reaches its most interesting stage to date. A contract for a minimum of 5000 feet of drilling is being negotiated by Minâ€" irg Research Corporation, Ltd., conâ€" sulting engineers, and the work is exâ€" pected to get urder way without delay. For months, Mineral Estates has been carrying on a very extensive proâ€" gramme of exploration on its large acreage to the west of Timmins, and results have been such that conditions indicate new history in the making for this premier gold camp. Probably not more ambitious mineâ€" making project has before occupied the attention of the investing public than the effort of Mineral Estates, Ltd., on its vast stretch of mineral ground west of the Mattagami River. The very acreage of the company‘s holdings is unique, and the magnitude of the posâ€" sibilities has aroused interest throughâ€" out the mining industry. The forthcomâ€" ing diamond drill campaign can be exâ€" pected to provide news of profound sigâ€" nificance to Ontario mining and may write a new chapter in the history of the leading gold province. For months a programme has been under way which has embraced surface work, a limited amount of diamond drilling, and the most extensive geoâ€" physical survey ever conducted in Canâ€" ada. The enterprise has thus reached the stage where it may be the fourdaâ€" tion for not only one mine, but several, if the results achieved to date can be taken as a criterion.
