MOUNT THATUEMAP LOCATION - https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1NgG6XgnwaE0J3t3QtYdLjbC9rRo&ie=UTF8&hl=fr&msa=0&t=h&ll=57.87353670764307%2C-129.7985310692587&spn=0.011691%2C0.025277&z=13&source=embed - Notice the 4 -5 saddles to the right side of Mt Thatue.
- Notice the loose grey till ore
- follow the 4 -5 saddles and move north to you see the V shaped saddle - grey ores again
- move to the north upper side of Thatue - more grey
- move westerly to - Mt Zechtoo - more grey ores appear
WHY FOCUS ON THE GREY ORES ? Simply put - RedChris mine - east pit has all grey ores.
On the map is doesn't really look like an east pit - it looks more like a north pit.
Which places the grey ores in closer proximity to - McBride.
If RedChris" other pit is moreso -tan ores containing - chalcopyrite - then,
it's a compleyely different system.
Now.. I thought i was done researching McBride - evidently not...lol
i came across another junior last eve - ROUGHRIDER - the prez Adam - was once associated to
Colorado who is now named - QuestX - Adam, sparked up RoughERider whose adjacent to
RedChris mines - easterly and westerly.
I read portions of Rough Rider's - 43 101 - Eldorado claim adjcent to - RedChris.
Perhaps my hunch was right...
These ores are til lores... like conglomerate mix.
In the Eldorado - 43 101 - it mentions several have drilled the Eldorado -
It's with copper and gold - but weak grades....
What was my takeaway ?
Maps are superb.
But more importantly... it descibes the drilling and how each time they drilled
they would drill to bedrtock.
And there it is...
More support that the bedrock is overlayed with tills.
Whether glacial or Oceanic induced - the main premise is - the gold and copper is
in a matrix of heinz 57 tills... which is perhaps why the gold and copper grades are
under a gram - but consistent and sometimes in a secondary consolodated - ore body.
PAGE 29 - ROUGHRIDER 43 101
One will see the darker green color zones that associate with - redchris and todagin
there is only one casm that separates the two dark green zones. ( lighter green )
RedChirs has pointed imperial in this direction....
They first thought the copper trend ran easterly... but aftrer seeing this green
extension past todagin - my hunch says... redchris has perhaps gone the other way
in search for the true source of the copper trend.
If one begins at redchris and runs north to Mt Thatue... there is also a possibility
that the redchris grey ores originated from the Mt Thatue zone.
Yes.. there are a few obstacle saddles in betwen these two reference points... but....
If one supposed these obstacle saddles were not there it would provide a clear path
for all those topical grey ores from Mt Thatue to run right into redchris.
Keep in mind... the RAoughRider - 43 101 - speaks of drilling and then hitting bedrock.
Drilling down to bedrock.
Which reveal their not drilling in bedrock from - get go.
Again... look at redchris' pit ores - that's not hardrock...
McBride has hazelton disposition all around the Mt Thatue...
Such might point to - the grey bornite ores of redchris' open pit - copper.
it would be ultra easy for Hawk to test the eastern saddles that have significant till wash.
To determine if the copper is in this matrix.
Keep in mind - the google map link above - wil lshow a distinct ( split ) one side summer
the other winter - thankfully a portion can stil be seen in the summer photo - which clearly
depixts - grey ores in soft tills.
Rough Rider - 43 101 - pg 29 https://www.roughriderexploration.com/site/assets/files/5768/43-101_report_on_eldorado_march_20_2020_sedar.pdf Take 20 min and read the rough rider report.
Easy read - chalked full of intel.
Again... Mt Thatue has the grey ores surrounding the mountain - other satelite saddles.
And.. there's also some grey till on the western side of, Mt Thatue.
Zoom in... enjoy.
There... done the Mc Bride.
If it were me...?
I'd not be on top of Mt Thatue - I'd zero in on the grey tills in hopes it was a match of, redchirs' grey ores in open pit....Looking for a large concentration of copper thatr nature already milled
in fine till ores..
Cheers...
