ON THE HUNT = MINERAL PIPES + FAULTSWas just surfing the satalite maps seeing if i could spot similar geology as the - Mon Mine.
Supposing the Mon Mine has traits to a volcanic system - Looking for ( mineral vent pipes )
Yellow Knife river has a fault system that runs along side it's watershed.
Interesting i tohught...
So off i went - seeing if i couyld spot more faults that may lead to a - vent pipe -
Came across the west side of - Discovery Lake
My best guess is... this might be a potential fractured surface fault that also runs along the
western side of Discovery.
Interesting it is - as i followed this potential fault system -
it lead me to the lower end of a smaller lake that is adjacent to Discovery Lake.
Now... hard to say, but by the looks of the visuals -
this area kind of looks like another - vent pipe - system.
Has faults on either side - big plus.
Concentric rings - could support a vent pipe formation.
At tail end of the Mon Mine - could be a secondary connective mineral body - same system ?
MAPCARTA Map opens at - Clan Lake
Aim 5.5 km south west - arrives at - Mon Mine
To the left you'll see Nelson lake
Nelson has a nipple looking Bay - that points to a small - lake
At the south western finger tip - of this small lake - could be another vent pipe -
Also the geology shows distinct crevases that appear as - fault fissures.
https://mapcarta.com/24191716/Map Decided to see if SIXTY knew about this location and -
they do. Potential faults
Potential secondary pipe ( own observation )
Potentail connective to Mon Mine - southern extension ?
Love it - Love it.
Where would this same location be on - SIXTY'S map ?
The large yellow dot seen north west ( immediate ) of the numerical number - 5
Might be another - cone volcanic pipe - 50m south of the small lake - beginning at the southern belly zone -
Ironically - SIXTY - has also identified - impressive - multiple gold showings at location #7
All these pin points are in close relation to each other - very nice.
Be sure ot check out the discovery lake deformation - with what appears to be a fault system
that runs along the - western side -
Bow... it may be difficult for other to navigate - mapcarta - i have a laptop and tablet all in one which allows me to expand the screen with my fingers - - - i don't see a zoom feature on this mapcarta - perhaps its there - i just dont see it - as for google maps ?
Ha... total garbage - they must have changed them again - can hardly see anything of the landscape - which is why i chose to post - mapcarta for references -
At the end of the day....
lots of interesting geology around Mon Mine - personally i think SIXTY is in a sweet spot -
i've checked other zones nearby - looking for - pipe - and well... i haven't come across anything else - which might mean - SIXTY - has some prime land compared to peers.
Cheers...
