- massive to semi-massive magnetite zones are up to 3000 feet long and 1500 feet wide
- assays of the bulk sample showed 45.6% Fe with 2.03 % chrome, 5.6% titania
The host rock of the magnetite mineralization is metapyroxenite which is thought to have intruded the metavolcanics, and which was locally seen to be in sharp contact with granodiorite the mineralogical.
Texturally similar to metagabbro, but darker in colour, this rock consists of
80 to 90 percent green hornblende with iron-titanium oxide segregations which
can be locally abundant, and one or more of clinopyroxene in the form of relict
aggregates and inclusions within hornblende, extremely altered plagioclase, and
fan-shaped aggregates of chlorite which is probably prochlorite. A variety of metapyroxenite containing approximately 50 percent titaniferous magnetite and
small amounts of an unidentified colourless mineral with one good cleavage and
low first-order birefringence,
