NICKEL CHLORIDE - NICKEL ( l l )Seems BMK loves to drill the - carbonate quartz - veins and dykes.
This is where al lthe salts are.
Hence - chloric intrusion.
Gold is most often found in a lense layer of breccia - lithology.
Lot's of chloite and fractured rocks.
If, one peels back the layers and looks a tad closer -
The gold is with pyrite, biotite, and well a muriod other ( i t e s )
East Pit - contains more - Arsenopyrites.
The quartzy carbonates have lots of other salts...
Like the high aluminum percentages.
Essentially were drilling the salts and by happen chance tapping the breccia layer art a specific depth. In my opinion, and as mentioned in prior post - this breccia lense could be labelled a non host rock - came in from elsewhere - an opinion.
Like most of the geologists, it's a hard go at explaining how these gold breccia lenses came about and why the gold is in some places and not others.
If it's kept in the context of... breccia came from elsewhere, it could explain why it's there and where more could be - based on outside of outcrops with higher elevations.
Meaning - the breccia would settle out in lower regions aside of the - outcrops.
Most of our drills are with acute angles - coming into the outcrop and out again.
Some may disagree and say... the breccia is becuase of the outcrops that spouted up from fractures - and wel... they could be right too.
This post is not about the outcrops but rather...
Irons and pyrites of all kinds.
With all the reports i've read - it appears the gold is always with pyrites, breccia fractured rocks, biotite and small irons -
.
Peers have the nickel, gold, copper, cobalt in SPECIFIC pyrites such as,
pyrrhotite, biotite, aresnopyrite, vermiculite, pentlandite -
These types of pyrites are associated to -
irons. Were drilling moreso salts and geting lucky with the brecia gold.
What i'd like to see is a few holes tapped in - irons - that are displaying lots of
pyrrhotite, arsenopyrite, and all the other pyrites.
My hunch says... .we'd have more of - what others are finding -
cobalt, nickel, copper
But... there's been lots of drilling on the Scadd and area surrounding by past explorers.
Lots of cores to draw from -
With mega chlorite.
And as i've pointed out - we do have nickel in the Scadd ores - but not high enough grades.
I also pointed out - that a new species of nickel has been officially recognized.
Serpent nickel + Nickel chloride.
I've also pointed out -
that when nickel alters from a sulphide to a chloride -
It can be difficult to detect.
XRF detectors - in one report - mentions nickel chloride was non detectable.
Another assay report - the nickel remained in the - slag
What does this suggest ?
It might suggest that standard assaying practices could be - not the right type of assaying.
Such as - simple fire assaying .
When nickel sees a transformation from sulphide to chloride.
It's changing its solid solid structure and converting to a - salt chloride.
Whereas - one should be checking the ions of - nickel.
What does nickel chloride look like ? https://fairskychem.en.made-in-china.com/productimage/USBEurLjggYo-2f1j00bdeiOWyaQKkh/China-Nickel-Chloride-Ni24-Nickel-Chloride-for-Electroplating.html Beautiful Bright Green.
So... we have lots of green cores.
Several colors of green.
We're in the right zip code.
Close to Sudbury.
Which begs... would it be wise to test several cores that have - CHLORITE - and see if the nickel or other such as cobalt morphed into a salt chloride/chlorite silica state ?
Check specific cores with lots of - pyrites / arseonpyrites.
Biotite can change to chlorite
Pyrrhtite actually has the pentlandite with in. ( one report i read )
by M Alvarez-Silva · 2011 · Cited by 5 — Active form of chemical species – pH can change the degree of dissociation of compounds into ions and control the chemical species present by processes such as.

There... lots to chew on. One things for certain - we have gold.
But we also have some other interesting minerlas
- titanium, aluminum.
What i'm left wondering is - Could the irons on SCADD host fsar more the the pyrite family -
And is this more productive for key minerals such as, nickel, copper, cobalt ?
And... perhaps a wise move would be - reassay for - nickel, copper, cobalt going into chlorite / chloride transition.
And.... what would the Scadd Mine look like if - RESOURCE WAS TALLIED
Along with a few other minerals - with - electrolysis mine midel - due ot so much chlorites.
If our Scadd historicsal has bene confirmed and strike extended - what sort of tonnage do we have with gold grades and perhaps a few other secondary minerals ?
Last time i checked... titanium is of great value and aluminum still is in short supply.
Could the Scadd be spun out with it's perrmit ?
Keeping current shares attached to Scadd ?
Treat it as a separate project -
And... since our lands are so vast - 197 sq km,
Would it be wise to - divide - the lands ?
Create 3 divisions ?
Upper Alwyn + Jerome.
Scadd down to Glade +Powerline
Jovan.
Just ideas....
Trying to help the junior- hoping to look at the projects from a different point of view.
Ideas that may help avert a roll - i would say... if we had a few more drills at Glade + Alwyn
and tallied a few extra minerals at Scadd - and retested for nickel chloride
maybe the junior could
produce 3 resources ? This... would assist the stock price - and - if a few warrants were tapped -
It could potentially turn this stock around.
Maybe a few of my ideas - have helped.
But then again... maybe not.
I will say... there is at least tons of information on these claims and surrounding claims.
Lot sof info - which is great.
But... several flaws - throughout the years ...
- mostly - veins were explored looking for gold.
- former and current explorers allergic to the irons
- only fire assays
Cheers....
