PEER NEARBY - GT GOLD = COPPER ORIGIN ?
GT Gold's - Saddle North Copper Gold Project ...
Copper-bearing (malachite ± chalcopyrite ± pyrite ± azurite) quartz-carbonate
GT Gold - copper is in the carbonates...
So looking for sulphide copper on McBride could be, pointless.
On page 8 of the 2018 exploration ( MacBride ) it shows copper is in the
carbonate calcite veining with a malachite - both are carbonate.
Looking for sulphide - iron anaomlaies with a survey...
is well... you know... especially when copper is in the carbonates and most
likely won't be picked up by the - survey reading - the copper has converted
most likely from a different sourced - iron copper deposit - and salt waters ripping
through this area picked up the copper - dissolved it in salts - converted it to
a carbonate copper - malachite + calcite.
Seeking out larger carbonate outcrops might provre more productive.
Versus - poking around sulphides.
Given the area is in close proximity to - placer ore fall out ...
I'd still recheck the 2019 drill results for - carbonate copper.
A samll drilll program - usinfg 3 meter drills - would do wonder to
retest the - McBride 2km trend....
Copper grades were reported over this 2km strike
and well... the cpper is there.... but in, carbonates - as per 2018 explore results.
Copper might also be in a diseminated placeer ore - 1 - 3 meters deep
I'd get out of the lower ranges and test the placer sands for mth rocks..
Hoping the carbonate copper became concentrated - whereas nature did the concentration
fore the junior in the silt sands...
Here's the 2018 pdf for McBride - work program results
look for the key words - calcite - malachite - carbonate.
clearly..... the copper is more predominate in the - carbonates.
Hawkeyes neighbor GT Gold has copper in what ?
= carbonates ( calcite + malachites )
