Subject field(s)
  • Geological Prospecting
CONT

Among the high grade intersections discovered were 39. 04 grams per tonne over 9. 0 metres and 16. 48 grams per tonne over 20 metres. Such high-grade intersections, and the structural continuity of the Charlie Richards ore body, suggest that further close-spaced drilling may lead to the definition of mineable underground reserves. The Company has hired an outside consultant to prepare a feasibility study of the potential underground development of this ore body.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Prospection géologique
CONT

L'une des intersections à forte teneur aurifère qui ont été découvertes était de 39,04 grammes par tonne sur 9 mètres et une autre, de 16,48 grammes par tonne sur 20 mètres. De telles intersections à forte teneur aurifère, de même que la continuité structurelle du filon Charlie Richards, suggèrent que d'autres forages serrés pourraient conduire à la délimitation de réserves souterraines exploitables. La Société a embauché un consultant à l'externe, qui préparera une étude de faisabilité quant à une éventuelle exploitation souterraine de ce gisement.

Record 15 1999-05-03

English

Subject field(s)
  • Mineralogy
DEF

A texture, often found in certain types of mineral deposits, where crystals have grown in a radiating and concentric manner which may reflect underlying geochemical controls. Lead-zinc deposits of sedimentary origin often show colloform banding of pyrite and sphalerite ...

CONT

... colloform banding ... is a very fine scale banding involving one or more sulphides very like the banding in agate. Some workers believe that it results from colloidal deposition and that the banding is analogous to the Liesegang rings formed in some gels. This banding is very susceptible to destruction by recrystallization and may be partially or wholly destroyed by diagenesis or low grade metamorphism, producing a granular ore.

CONT

Textures vary with the degree of recrystallization. The dominant original textures appear to be colloform banding of the sulphides with much development of framboidal pyrite, perhaps reflecting colloidal deposition. Commonly however, recrystallization, often due to some degree of metamorphism, has destroyed the colloform banding and produced a granular ore.
