MacDonald Mines Exploration Ltd V.BMK

Alternate Symbol(s):  MCDMF

MacDonald Mines Exploration Ltd. is a Canada-based mineral exploration company. The Company is focused on the evaluation, acquisition, and development of precious and critical metals properties in Ontario. It is primarily focused on locating an economic deposit within its 100%-owned Scadding-Powerline-Jovan (SPJ) Project in Northeastern Ontario, located 20 kilometers east of the prolific Sudbury Mining Camp. The SPJ property consists of the Scadding, Powerline, Jovan, Blueberry, Loney and Golden Copper properties located east of Sudbury in Northern Ontario. The SPJ Project is targeting a system of interconnected precious and critical metals mineralization zones on an underexplored land package, which hosts the past producing Scadding Gold Mine and multiple known critical and precious metals prospects and showings. It also covers a Metasomatic Iron and Alkali-Calcic (MIAC) mineral system that formed polymetallic Cu-Au and Au-Co, Au, Silver, and REE exploration targets.

THOUGHTS -

THOUGHTS -

SPJ -  initself is a districscale project
INVENTUS - has massive tracks of lands - river valley
INVENTUS - has massive lands upper SPJ project - and  - more lands that stretch to - Temagami.
NAM - has massive tracks of lands around - river valley.

These three juniors - make up the eastern lands - east side of, Sudbury.
Inventus claims are called - SUDBURY 2.0
Sounds like the second Sudbury in the making.

I can't dismiss that - perhaps - SPJ + NAM - are somehow apart of the - SUDBURY 2.0
Not yet... almagamated.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BRISTOL - structure - scadding mine.
Three holes intercepted the - Bristol.
Cobalt was identified but never spoken of thereafter.
Sounds like they knew about the cobalt.


19 003
19 009
19 024

If one uses the - race car track - image below - it could lend an indifferent interpretation to that of,
google maps - google maps shows an outcrop west side of - scadding mine -
This would place the Bristol as that structure -
This Bristol is showing to run directly north - and well.. it does.
So does the - outcrop - that i see directly aside of Scadd mine - west  - touches scadd open pit.
This outcrop - slightly arcs - right into the - North Pit.

North pit is only 200m from Scadd Mine.
It is at the base of - Bristol outcrop - which fans out due to - disemination - errosions.
Again, refer to google maps and one will see this outcrop.

TWO - PROBABILITIES -
1 - Bristol arc outcrop - is cause of, gold with in - scadd + north pit.
2 - Gold camr from a northly watershed and reconsolodated into a new - matrix 

If free gold - settled and reconsolodated from watershed - northern.
Then... the matrix in cores should have a mixture - and.... they do.
Sands, Irons, breccia, gabbro, and lots of chlroite and  wait for it, chalcopyrite, pyrrhotite, pyrite.

Now refer to the - 3 drill holes mentioned above, 003, 009, 024 - all intersected the - Bristol.
But.... not much info on these holes. ( all i can find is - 003 - )


AND THIS....
A 1 kg metallic screen analyses all samples over 10 g/t gold or the samples with abundant visible gold.

https://insidexploration.com/macdonald-mines-drills-5-73-g-t-gold-over-3-67m-including-17-30-g-t-over-1m-at-scadding-continues-drilling-beyond-scadding-at-the-jovan-property/

What about all other gold - other minerals - non visable ?
Sounds like - only visable gold or 10/g/t were singled out.
lol


Here's another press - 

Scadding Deposit is associated with iron-rich chlorite alteration containing variable pyrite, pyrrhotite, magnetite, and minor to accessory chalcopyrite instead of quartz and quartz-tourmaline veins.

https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2019/11/06/1941931/0/en/MacDonald-Mines-Completes-15-Drill-Holes-and-Identifies-Multiple-High-Grade-Gold-Structures-in-the-Scadding-Deposit.html


Keep in mind - Pyrrhotite - is a mineral that is known for - NICKEL.
Chloric intrusion - with chalcopyrite - has anyone ever checked all those green /blue cores for
copper in solution - nickel in solution ?

I have quite a few windows open peretaining to - McD -
There is a mention of, cobalt in the - Bristol structure - which we don't have much press info on,  
Knowing they knew there was a cobalt showing in, Bristol structure.

Such should also be eviden in the - North Pit.


Waht else ?
Nickel + cobalt + copper suddenly show themselves at the - powerline.


But before powerline - there's the Glade occurence.
Approx 1 km south of, Scadd mine.
Big gold, really nice intercepts.

MOST OF THE DRILLING  - BRISTOL
Came in from the Scadd mine side - going down into the - Bristol formation. ( outcrop )
Bristol on Google maps appears as an outcrop - therefore it would be higher up
It might suggest - that the outcrop could've thrusted up at a later time - the 3 holes mentioned above may have went under the outcrop - missing the surficial gold - as similar to - Scadd.

Where Scadd and North Pit are located-
Gold and other minerals may have entered into these pocketed areas from - Up North.

But... there's higher odds that gold maybe local - errosion from the bristol outcrop
Water erosion - fall out from the Bristol.
Again the 3 holes above - 003, 009, 024 -  drilled under Bristol outcrop -
Were not from atop Bristol outcrop - they were drilled at base of Scadd and went deeper -
Waht is at Scadd and Nortrh pit, could also be atop the - Bristol -
Bristol is an outcrop - lifed up.
I haven't seen any drills hit the top of Bristol going down into it.
Just saying.


Quint - was allergic to the - Bristol.
Bristol in one press did make mantion of cobalt.

At the powerline - cobalt is in - ferro pyrite.


THE TREND ?
NORTH TO SOUTH.
Sweeping waters from Wanapetei invaded the Scadd.
Altering the area, taking out lots bring in other - ores - changed the gology.
It's a mix.
Local, up north, and wanapetei.

Alwyn + Jerome - copper gold cobalt
North Pit - gold, cobalt.
Scadd - gold, copper ( chalco ) cobalt ( bristol ) pyrrhotite ( potential nickel )
Glade - gold, copper
Powerline - gold, copper, cobalt


ISSUES ?
Assaying.
And, project was delivered in - compartmental pieces -
Very hard to patch it all the drills together especially when, Scadd area was not fully scoped for all minerals - minerals that are north of Scad and south of Scad - Minerlas like, copper, cobalt, nickel.






NORTH PIT -
Is larger than i thought - 
How... ?
Look at the size of Scadd mine then, compare gold distribution in drill intercepts.
Then.... keep in mind - gold at North Pit has a footprint - running easterly -
Could North Pit be similar size to that of - Scadd Mine ?

https://insidexploration.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/longsection-figure2-750x482.png



NORTH PIT - CORE RACK - 
Here's a core rack photo - BMK's best drill intercept -
To me, without actually seeing the cores - they appear as sand ores with breccia and chloric alteration - 

Sands are important... especially when it was they're best intercept to date.
Sands could expalin the - high grade and long intercept - 
Gold from Wanapetei or up north -

North pit - has no baracade from Bristol - it's wide open at the tail end.
If gold is in a sand mix, it would point either north push coming in, or as mentioned, from push of waters from - Wanapetei.

Or... water errosion from north tip of Bristol - fall out - and gold depsoited in North Pit.
Where's the gold disposition ?
Ahhhh... North pit Gold, fans out easterly.
Which would favor the odds of, western Wanapetei gold coming in, or Wanapetei watershed erroded tail north end of, Brsitol

Again... who was allergic to Bristol ?
Just seeing if you're paying attention.
tease.

SPJ - PROJECT
Looks wonderful - but - needs an entire make over.
As mentioned at beginning of post - i would say, 3 juniors are building out the next - Subury 2.0

SPJ - 
Needs - Full assays
Lots of historical drills - 30,000m would reveal lots i can't sift or see.
Current drills, is like a show and tell... on the gold and suddenly switch things up to another area.

Continuity wise... Mineralization i feel is - weaving snaking from - North to South.
Rathburn, evenm Cobalt Hill, right down to Powerline.
Spance width -more westerly of Scadd mine to furthest - east side of - East Pit - 

Former historical mines allow a good measure of what ot expect.
These are superb bumpers in which to bounce from.
Even the opap mine - north west of Scadd.
copper and gold.

Wild cards of, nickel in pyrrhotite ( further assaying ) 
Even nickel in serpentine or chloric solution - same goes for ,copper, and cobalt )



Cheers.....
