GEOLOGICAL SITE PLANS OF POTENTIAL DIMENSION STONE QUARRIES ON THE KILLBEAR POINT PROPERTY THE PARRY SOUND DISTRICT OF ONTARIO SUMMARY The Parry Sound area of Ontario is underlain by complex gneisses and migmatites of Middle to Late Proterozoic age which are part of the Ontario segment of the Central Gneiss Belt of the Grenville Structural Province. A working model of thrust plates (called domains and sub-domains) which are separated by ductile thrust faults and moved in a northwesterly direction upon each other has been postulated by Davidson et al (1982).

Easton (1992) has improved this model in his synopsis using a hierarchy of terranes and domains wherein the terranes indude domains of similar age which are autochthonous with respect to each other. Age dating has indicated that four of these large scale terranes or plates are stacked on each other with the base being near Sudbury at the Grenville Front and the top being near Kingston.

Despite the recent wealth of scholarly publications a comprehensive geological map has not yet been made available for the area. However, the limited information available has enabled the dear identification of potentially favourable conditions for both flagstone and dimension stone. Several flagstone occurrences cluster along Davidson's thrusts and several potential dimension stone prospects have been identified within the interior of particular domains.

Although one may ordinarily not expect to find dimension stone within tectonite terranes, it is evident that the autochthonous nature of some of the domains combined with annealing effect of later superimposed amphibolite facies metamorphism preserved large competent blocks of migmatites and gneisses.

As a result of mapping dimension stone potential, nine sites exposing migmatitic orthogneisses in the Britt domain were sampled producing encouraging results on sawing and polishing. Subsequently six of the properties examined and three properties identified in government research have been staked. One of these properties is the ten claim unit, 500 acre, Killbear Point property.

The property is underlain by massive to gneissic pink granite gneiss, migmatite and a purple and pink migmatite all of which are flat lying or gently dipping to the southeast. A study of the joint spacings indicates average spadngs of 2 metres for horizontal joints and over 5 metres for vertical joints. Four prospective products , two of which are unique, attractive, red, textured granites have been identified in five potential quarry locations. A high yield rate of 30 tonne blocks is inferred.

During 1995, three sites were mapped at an approximate 1:500 scale using a pen notebook computer and Field Notes software. Site plans showing 1 metre contours, the existing ground conditions and joints were produced. The three sites designated Killbear 1, 2 and 3 respectively contain purple and pink migmatite, pegmatite breccia, and purple and pink breccia intermixed with pegmatite breccia. Each site is very prospective for dimension stone and 30 tonne blocks are apparently quarriable with low waste factors.

Killbear 1 was sampled, and a preliminary set of ASTM tests conducted by Inchcape Testing Services NV Ltd. achieved satisfactory results. Drilling of Killbear 1 and 2 are planned.

It is strongly recommended that test quarrying be conducted on Killbear 1 and Killbear 2 . Permitting through the Ministry of Northern Development and Mines and public information meetings will be required steps before quarrying. Further site planning, calculation of waste factors and costs for each quarry test and permit applications are to precede an effort to finance this next stage.

INTRODUCTION

In 1991, the writer commenced a project to evaluate the flagstone and dimension stone resources of the Parry Sound area. At the same time efforts by government geologists, principally Chris Marmont and Dave Villard, were being made to outline the substantial potential for these stone resources and make the public aware of the opportunity. In 1992, the regional investigation of flagstone resources by the writer proved discouraging. It was decided late in the field season to focus solely on the dimension stone potential.

By the end of 1992, many prospective dimension stone sites had been identified by either government publications or by the writer's prospecting. Nine of these dimension stone properties have now been staked by the writer, and an initial evaluation of each property involving geological mapping of the outcrops at a scale of 1:5,000 has been conducted. The work provides an initial evaluation of potential quarry sites on each property. The project has been supported by the Ontario Prospector's Assistance Program in 1992, 1993 and 1995.

In October 1991, the first portion of the Killbear Point property was acquired for its dimension stone potential. Additions to the property were made in 1992. Geological mapping was carried out initially in 1992 and a Preliminary map was prepared and submitted with the final report for the OPAP grant in 1992. This work was supplemented in 1993 with additional mapping on the property resulting in a more detailed interpretation of the northeast comer of the claim group and a revision of the Legend and a geological report on the property was completed (Trusler, 1993b). This study is a detailed geological evaluation of three sites using a field pen notebook computer to map the joints and ground conditions. The data obtained will enable planning for the removal of dimension stone blocks from each site.

The format of the report is in compliance with requirements for submission of a geological report for assessment purposes.

LOCATION AND ACCESS

The property is located in Carting Township, Parry Sound District, Southern Ontario Mining District, and Algonquin District Regional Geologist's area approximately 150 miles (240 km) north of Toronto (Figure 1). The property is bounded by longitudes 80"-15'30"W on the west and 80 0 -13'-44"W on the east and latitudes 45 0 -21 '-33"N on the south and 45 0 -23'-31" on the north. The corresponding UTM co-ordinates in metres are 558,100 on the west, 560,370 on the east, 5,022,840 on the south and 5,027,320 on the north. The property is within National Topographic System area 41H/8 and is recorded on claim map M2297.

The property can be accessed from Hwy 559, the Pengallie Bay Rd. and the Snug Harbour Rd by first leaving Hwy 69 some 10 km north of Parry Sound and travelling 19 km west on Hwy 559. Due to an old road and relatively flat outcrop the bulk of the property is currently accessible to 4-wheel drive vehicles.

DATES WORKED METHODS USED ON CURRENT PROJECT

Preparation work on the project commenced in September, 1995, the field work commenced on Oct. 19,1995 and the map drafting and report writing was completed on Jan.29, 1996. Actual work days for assessment purposes break down as follows: Killbear Point Property: Claims SO1151129,1151135,1151136 Preparation: Sept. 29, Oct. 4, 25, 28, 29, Nov.3,4.5,8,12 4 15, 1995 (11 days) - Field: Oct. 19, 20, Nov. 20,21 ,A 23.1995 (5 days) /Drafting: Dec. 19 1995 (1 day) Reporting. Dec.14, 18,26,27,28,1995; Jan. 28, 29, 1996 (7 days) Sample Preparation and Testing: Dec. 5, 12, 15, 1995 S Jan. 8, 1996 ( 1V& days )

The magnetic declination used in the field work is 10"-5'W. After selecting several candidate sites for 1:500 mapping, the air photo enlargements were scanned at high resolution (600 dpi) and digitized as a tif file for use with digitized Ontario Base maps in a pen notebook computer. Field Notes , the Windows based software was used directly in the field to coordinated the image files created from digitized air photos, the vector file layers of OBM data, the database and drawing input layers. The field data was directly output on a Canon BJC-600 Bubble Jet Printer. The digital data has been saved as dxf and dwg files for use in AutoCAD .

Two difficulties were experienced with the system. Initially the image scanned was over a large area so that the resolution of the image file was poor below a 1.2000 scale. This was remedied by scanning select portions of the air photo enlargements at 600 dpi. The second difficulty was that the computer functioned poorly in freezing weather. That was remedied by converting the tif files to gif files using Graphic Workshop and massaging these files in L View Pro to produce a high resolution image at 1:500 scale. This image was printed out on the Bubble Jet Printer and used for direct field mapping in the cold weather.

The data was then transcribed onto the computer in the evenings. These difficulties and a few more comprised about half of the project preparation time.

Three sites were mapped at an approximate scale of 1:500 enabling the construction of site plans.

Samples comprising 150 kilograms were collected from the area of the Killbear #1 site plan and transported to Smith Monument Co. for sawing. Most of the samples were cut to specifications under the direct supervision of the writer and then transported to Inchcape Testing Services. The writer attended on the sample testing for half a day.

PREVIOUS GEOLOGICAL WORK

A traverse of the shore of Georgian Bay was made by Alexander Murray in 1848, and he gives a brief account of the geology of the shoreline (Murray 1848. p.45,46).

The shoreline of Georgian Bay was again examined by Robert Bell in 1876 (Bell 1876, p. 198-207). The Huntsville -Bracebridge area was investigated by W.A. Parks (1900, p. 121126), and brief notes on the geology are given. Further field work was done in the area in 1905 by T.L. Walker (1905, p. 84-86). The International Geological Congress had a field excursion in Parry Sound area in 1913. Some local geological features are described by T.L. Walker (1913, p. 98-100). Trusler and Villard (1980) conducted detailed geological mapping in the Parry Sound-Sans Souci area.Trusler (1992, 1993a, 8t 1 993b) conducted regional prospecting and mapped the property geologically on a 1:5,000 scale.

The first comprehensive reconnaissance mapping in the area was done by Satterly (1942) who visited all the local known mineral deposits. Satterly (1955) also mapped Lount Twp. in detail showing for the first time the existence of mappable units in the Parry Sound area. Hewitt (1967) was able to accurately identify the complexity of petrographic units and correlate some of these in a reconnaissance mapping program.

Greater interest in resolving the geological complexity of the area was kindled

by Lumbers who was progressively mapping Grenville terrains in Ontario from the Grenville Front to the south Lumbers (1975) and by Wynne-Edwards (1972). Wynne-Edwards suggested the first interpretive framework for the Central Gneiss Belt of the Grenville Structural Province. The controversy which arose from Wynne-Edwards "Sea of Gneisses" lead a profusion of other researchers into the area who have conducted specific detailed and reconnaissance mapping and synoptic studies. Since 1972 M. W. Schwerdtner and students have concentrated on resolving many of the structural geology problems of the area contributing a great amount to the understanding of the geology of the Central Gneiss Belt.

The framework for all current work in the area was provided by Davidson et al. (1982). This has been modified subsequently by Davidson and other workers, and Easton (1992) has provided a coherent review, but the tectonic terrains and domains separated by shear zones have become imbedded in the literature.

REGIONAL GEOLOGY

The Muskoka-Parry Sound region is part of the Ontario segment of the Central Gneiss Belt in the Grenville Structural Province (Wynne-Edwards 1972). No detailed geological map of the whole region, which was included in a recent major project on the Ontario Gneiss Segment by the Geological Survey of Canada, has been published to date.

Recent mapping by Davidson et al. (1982) has led to a tectonic model in which the thickening of Proterozoic crust is accomplished by deep-level thrusting and Page 5

associated reverse ductile shearing (Davidson 1984a, 1984b). According to this model, major crustal slices (called domains and sub-domains, (see Fig.3)) have been translated over large distances toward the margin of the Superior Structural Province.

This view has been further modified by some more local studies by Hanmer (1988) and Schwerdtner (1987). According to Hanmer the southeast to northwest thrusting was initiated at approximately 1160 Ma and continued for 100 Ma. However he claims that subordinate northeastward thrusting was coeval and that late synmetamorphic extensional shears cut these major thrusts and thrust sheets but are in turn cut by late movement on the thrusts. He further alludes to the comparison to the structural style of the Central Gneiss Belt and the Himalayas suggesting that the Grenville exposes the architecture and processes presently active in the roots of younger mountain belts. Schwerdtner^ Page 6

observations agree with Manner's respecting a northeasterly component to deformation which he invokes to explain north-south buckle folds. However, Schwerdtner observed that not all foliations can be explained by the thrust model and that three sets of folding are superimposed and cross the domain boundaries. He claims that all the structural facts can be explained without large differential translations of crustal slices and most discordances in the regional gneissocity could have been created by decollement and repeated buckling.

Easton (1992) synthesized all previous studies stating that, "Recorded within the Grenville Province is the tectonic evolution of the southeast margin of Laurentia during the Mesoproterozoic. The Grenville Orogeny has overprinted the structural trends and metamorphic effects of the Archean and Paleoproterozoic geological province of Laurentia.

It is now generally accepted that this orogenic event or events involved northwest directed thrusting and imbrication of the entire crust, presumably as a result of a terminal collision at about 1100 Ma. with a continental landmass somewhere to the southeast.

The Central Gneiss Belt consists mainly of upper amphibolite and local granulite facies, quartzo-feldspathic gneisses, chiefly of igneous origin with subordinate paragneiss. Distinctive lithotectonic terranes, some further subdivided into domains, have been identified within the Central Gneiss Belt. The terranes and domains are distinguished by differences in rock types, internal structure, metamorphic grade, geological history, and geophysical signature and are bounded by zones of intensely deformed rocks traceable for tens of kilometres."

The Algonquin terrane consists of 1800 to 1600 Ma gneisses intruded by 1500 to 1400 Ma granitic and monzonitic plutons that may represent an extension of the Eastern Granite-Rhyolite Province. Although imbricated by later thrusting the Algonquin terrane is probably parautochthonous. The Britt and Rosseau domains are part of the Algonquin terrane.

The Britt Domain (Figure 4) comprises a complexly deformed and metamorphosed series of rocks. Although some of the rocks are metasedimentary in origin the preponderance of the rocks were originally plutonic, but have been changed by dynamic and thermal metamorphism. The final stages of this metamorphism appear to have annealed the rock into a compact and durable material having some relict textures and many overlapping and lively features. Dips of these rocks are generally flat to 10 0to the southeast. Some units are entirely composed of isoclinal sheath folds whereas other units are evidently deformed megacrystic granitic plutons.

Figure 4: Geology of the Britt Domain (Easton (1992)) The Parry Sound and Moon River domains consist chiefly of juvenile crust 1450 to 1350 Ma in age and are parallochthonous. The Parry Sound domain rocks comprise dense high metamorphic facies rocks (amphibolite and granulite facies) which are emergent on the other domains. The rocks in the Parry Sound domain are dominantly amphibolite and pyroxenite gneisses which strike to the north east and dip 20 0 -60 0to the southeast (at a much steeper angle than the postulated shear couple accompanying thrusting). The bedrock largely comprises veined, banded and homogeneous pink and grey Page B

migmatitic gneisses produced by injection and granitization of metamorphic gneisses of various types. The rocks are mainly of upper amphibolite and granulite metamorphic facies.

Hypersthene-bearing chamokitic gneisses are present in the area. The origin of much of the amphibolite gneiss is obscure. Some which is associated with bands of marble is thought to be paragneiss whereas some is proximal to large bodies of gabbro and anorthosite and thought to be orthogneiss. Trusler and Villard (1980) found evidence that some of the mafic and felsic rocks are of volcanic origin. The high metamorphic grade of the rocks is attributed to a deep seated origin possibly involving underplating at an early stage.

The Bolger pluton in the Britt domain is dated at circa 1450 Ma and underlies the Black Lake, Woods Road and Shebeshekong Lake properties (Figure 4). The Dillon Road property is underlain by both the Bolger pluton and the Ojibway gneiss association.

The Killbear Point and Jacknife Harbour properties are underlain by the Sand Bay gneiss association. The Grundy Lake property is underlain by an unnamed V-shaped pluton believed to be circa 1450 Ma. Comparable regional maps do not cover areas about the Turtle Lake property and the Burnt Lake property which are situated in the Rosseau and the Moon River domains respectively.

DESCRIPTION OF ROCK UNITS

Since no detailed geological maps have been produced for the Parry Sound area, none of the previous workers have made an attempt to construct a table of rock units.

Since each domain postulated by Davidson has been transposed over a large distance none of the rock units are correlative across domain boundaries. Trusler and Villard made an attempt to derive a Table of Rock units for the Parry Sound -Sans Souci area in 1980 and some of that information is used here to produce Table 2. These Formation names are not used in the mapping. However, the property is principally underlain by rocks that correlate with the Killbear Point Formation and to a lesser extent with rocks of the Bateau Island Formation. Culshaw et al. (1991) correlate these rocks with the Sand Bay Gneiss Association.

The rocks on the property have been subdivided into mappable units as follows: granite gneiss, purple and pink migmatite, migmatite and coronitic metagabbro. The granite gneiss is a pink, layered to massive rock, varying from fine grained to coarse grained from one area to another and comprising quartz, plagioclase and microcline with minor biotite and variable accessory magnetite, hematite and almandine. A significant portion of this rock unit is demonstrably composed of breccias cataclastically derived from granite pegmatites.

The purple and pink migmatite is a composite layered rock generally containing medium to coarse grained layers of the granite gneiss and a regular fine to Page 9

medium grained purple or mauve layer comprising quartz, feldspar, biotite, almandine and hematite. Frequently a milky to buff rock of medium to coarse grained granulated late tectonic pegmatite forms layers within the purple and pink migmatite. Pinch and swell of the late tectonic pegmatite and brecciation or crenulation of the purple constituent are common variations of this rock unit.

The migmatite is a generally coarse grained composite layered rock comprising a generally mafic paleosome biotite or hornblende dominant material and a neosome late tectonic pegmatite.

Coronitic metagabbro has been found in two isolated segments on the property. The rock is commonly mafic to ultramafic and coarse grained. In many cases, especially towards the core of an intrusion, relict clinopyroxenes have been preserved generally rimmed by amphiboles.

Page 12

PROPERTY GEOLOGY

The property principally is underlain by felsic rocks of unusual character of Middle to Late Precambrian age. The pre-metamorphic origin of these rocks is obscure. In addition, the degree of thermal and dynamic metamorphism to which these rocks were subjected through multiple stage or polyphase deformation is difficult to determine in the field.

The individual rock units were described under the heading DESCRIPTION OF ROCK UNITS on Page 9 of this report. The granite gneiss is generally hypidiomorphic granular. Several features of this rock unit infer at least a partial metamorphic origin: cataclastic textures including tectonic grain gradation characterize the fine grained portions of the unit and frequently occur wrth regularly spaced biotite and amphibole rich partings; the cataclastic grain classification forms a strong gneissic foliation in portions of the unit; significant portions of the unit comprise a matrix supported, pegmatite breccia which consists of apparently unstrained microcline porphyroclasts in a gneissic, fine to coarse grained, granitic ground mass. The genesis of this material would also be obscured except for some textbook quality examples in road cuts near the property on Hwy 559 where a well constituted coarse grained granite pegmatite grades laterally into a pegmatite breccia. A portion of both the fine and coarse grained varieties have purple to dark red speckles of hematite.

Despite the apparent role of dynamic metamorphism in the genesis of this rock unit several large outcrops expose uniform occurrences of massive, equigranular granite possibly suitable for monument stone.

In the purple and pink migmatite, the granite gneiss appears to form the introduced neosome constituent which appears to have been reduced in grain size by cataclasis (many examples of syntectonic pegmatites reduced to fine grained neosome constituents are evident in the region within both the Britt domain and the Moon River domain). The paleosome layer in a few places still contains over 1 Q07o biotite and exhibits a relict foliation; however, this material appears to be a schlieren produced by the process of granitization. The hematite which macroscopically appears to follow the biotite foliation or occur in streaks parallel to the gneissic foliation, microscopically coats the grain boundaries of all the other minerals and is translucent in character. The hematite spotting which is very strong in this unit is a regional feature of the area and is frequently erroneously attributed to almandite.

In a variety of the pink and purple migmatite a pale to buff medium to coarse grained pegmatite forms lit par lit stringers parallel to the gneissic foliation. This material is of late tectonic origin and forms some very attractive textures. Frequently the late tectonic pegmatite exhibits pinch and swell textures over very large areas. This might provide a target material for quarrying. A very attractive, voluminous, and somewhat unique variety of the pink and purple migmatite is a breccia or crenulation of the purple material in the pink granitic or the buff pegmatitic materials.

Page 13

The more common migmatite contains thick paleosome sections from 2 cm thick to 2 metres thick in a lit par lit arrangement with late tectonic, quartz-rich, pink to grey granite pegmatite. The paleosome is generally over 5007o mafics with biotite being more frequently the mafic mineral than amphibole. The migmatite is frequently flanked by the purple and pink migmatite giving the impression that the varieties of rock evidence gradational granitization.

The general pattern displayed by the gneissic foliations on the property is of a relatively structurally uniform sequence which is flat lying to gently southeast dipping.

In descending order the three most prominent joint directions on the property are at 1500 , 75 0 , and 25". With total outcrop exposure approaching 700Xo over the whole property it is very encouraging to note that the average horizontal and sub-horizontal joint spacing on the property is 2 metres from observable surfaces and the vertical joint spacing averages over 5 metres. Indeed many areas were seen with joint spacings in excess of thirty metres.

POTENTIAL DIMENSION STONE SITES

At least four distinctive potential dimension stone products may be found in various locations on the property. Although there are a large number of potential quarry sites, five appear to be more outstanding due to existing vertical faces or the presence of a steep hill. Three of these sites were mapped on an approximate 1:500 scale and a site plan has been produced for each area.

The first site plan (Killbear#1) (Figure 5) is located at the west side of lot 66, Concession 10, claim S01151129 . The site plan covers an area 140 metres X 50 metres and a vertical rise of 5 metres, and its location is indexed on Figure 2. The site exposes some lit par lit purple and pink migmatite and brecciated purple and pink migmatite which are continuous in outcrop over large portions of a hill which is 400 metres X 500 metres and rises 10 to 15 metres above the surrounding drainage. Sub-horizontal joint spacings exceed 2 metres and vertical joint spacings are from 2 to 30 metres. The major joint strikes between 160 0 and 180 0 parallel to the axis of the hill. Three minor discontinuous cross joints were seen at azimuths ranging from 60 c to 80". The gneissic foliation is uniform at 000 0 dipping 20"E. A subhorizontal joint is apparently parallel to the gneissic foliation. It is apparent that the joint separation on the sub-horizontal set is possibly up to 4 metres. A drill hole is planned to confirm this joint separation. The existing data is to be evaluated using AutoCAD in order to design the test site and estimate waste factors.

Photos 1 depicts the site plan area of Killbear #1 looking north and Photo 2 shows the purple and pink migmatite breccia in outcrop some 70 metres east of the site plan area.

A sample (Killbear #1) was collected from the cliff face for ASTM tests for water absorption and bulk specific gravity, modulus of rupture and compressive strength.

The test results were satisfactory.

CONCLUSIONS The Britt domain comprises a complexly deformed and metamorphosed series of rocks. Although some of the rocks are metasedimentary in origin the preponderance of the rocks were originally plutonic, but have been changed by dynamic and thermal metamorphism. The final stages of this metamorphism appear to have annealed the rock into a compact and durable material having some relict textures and many overlapping and lively features.

The Killbear Point property comprises 500 acres, and is underlain by complex migmatites of Middle to Late Precambrian age. A study of the joints and joint spacings suggests that most of the property would yield a high percentage of 30 tonne blocks of dimension stone. Four potential product lines have been identified in five potential quarry sites. Two of the potential product lines are unique and the other two are similar to other stone already being marketed. All of the stone appears to be of good quality and very attractive.

Three sites were mapped at an approximate scale 1:500 and site plans showing 1 metre contours, the existing ground conditions and joints were produced. The three sites designated Killbear 1, 2 and 3 respectively contain purple and pink migmatite, pegmatite breccia, and purple and pink breccia intermixed with pegmatite breccia. Each site is very prospective for dimension stone and 30 tonne blocks are apparently quarriable with low waste factors. Killbear 1 was sampled, and a preliminary set of ASTM tests conducted

by Inchcape Testing Services achieved satisfactory results. Drilling of Killbear 1 and 2 are planned. Further site planning, calculation of waste factors in a test quarry and permitting are to precede an effort to finance this next stage.

RECOMMENDATIONS

Efforts are to be concentrated on further testing and development of the purple and pink migmatite and the pegmatite breccia: 1.

Killbear 1, on claim 1151129, is to be drill tested. An assessment of waste and cost factors involved with a quarry test and permitting through the testing stage are recommended. The quarry test will involve the removal of approximately 3,000 tonnes in 30 tonne blocks from the site.

2.

Killbear 2, on claim 1151136, is to be drill tested. An assessment of waste and cost factors involved with a quarry test and permitting through the testing stage are recommended. The quarry test will likely require removal of some 1,000 tonnes of material in 30 tonne blocks from the site.

3.

Killbear 3, on claim 1151129, should have the site planning exercise completed on it involving an assessment of waste and cost factors associated with a quarry test.

Initial licensing should proceed with the Minister of Northern Development and Mines to licence two sites for removal of up to a 3000 tonne test sample at each site; public information meetings will be required.
