Alternate Symbol(s):  RTMFF

RT Minerals Corp. is a Canada-based junior exploration company. The Company holds a 100% interest, royalty-free, in a portfolio of 12 rare earth element (REE), gold and base metal properties in Ontario, Canada. The Company is engaged in the acquisition, exploration and evaluation of mineral properties in Canada for hosting critical minerals, gold and base metals. Its projects include Nordica, Case Batholith, Ireland, Timmins, Kenogaming & Pharand, Kendry, Galna, Blakelock, Mcquibban, and Milligan. The Nordica property is prospective for copper, nickel, cobalt, chromium, and palladium mineralization. The Ireland REE property is comprised of 52 claims (421 hectares) covering an inferred carbonatite complex (the Ireland Complex) located in Ireland Township, 45 kilometers northeast of Smooth Rock Falls, Ontario. The Timmins property contains 21 claim blocks comprising 170 hectares (420 acres) and is located in Timmins township approximately 50 km southeast of Timmins Ontario.

Alteration

AlterationThe following is taken from a report by W.G. Powell and S.L. Jackson, 1994, Ontario Geological Survey, Open File Report 5885).
"There is no persistent or extensive thermal aureole associated with the Round Lake Batholith (2605 Ma). Greenshist facies metabasites, including clinopyroxene bearing metagabbros and komatiites occur within 1 kilometre of the batholith margin. In marked contrast, the syenitic Otto Stock (2544 Ma) has a thermal aureole which extends 10 kilometres from the pluton".
"The presence of such low-grade rocks adjacent to the Round Lake Batholith , together with structural information, supports the interpretation that the batholith was emplaced at its current level as a solid state diapir"
Before I go any further (because I'm not an expert in metamorphism), my take on the above is that since there is no thermal aureole, or very little, around the Round Lake Batholith, does that mean there was probably no hydrothermal fluids, or not much, escaping from the RLB. If that was the case, then where did the gold on the Link Catharine property come from? Where is the source? Is there another source nearby, like a syenite stock?
