The claims are located immediately south of Selkirk Metals L J property, near Revelstoke BC. The mineralised trend that hosts the J & L - Zinc ~ Gold deposit is quite likely located on this property as well.</B></div> <div> <B> </B></div> <div> <B>This ground is also contiguous with the former producing Mastodon Ag-Zn-Pb Mine owned by Teck Cominco. </B></div> <div> <B>The property area is very highly ranked for it's prospective geology, as well as it's discovery and exploration potential.</B></div> <bR> <div> <B><U>HISTORY</U></B></div> <div> <B>Most of the exploration and development work was carried out between 1934 and 1937 by Allco Silver Mines Limited, during which some minor ore shipments were made. The development work included 282 metres of drifts and crosscuts in 4 adits, a 20-metre shaft and a 15-metre winze. </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>In the 1980's </B><B>Gunsteel Resources Inc., explored the property. They defined several geochemical anomalies and new showings, that have yet to be drilled. Further modern exploration on the property is warranted and undoubtedly would result in more new discoveries.</B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <B><U>GEOLOGY</U></B></div> <div> <B>The general claim area is underlain by strata of the Lower Cambrian Badshot Formation and the Lower Cambrian and younger Lardeau Group. </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Five main stratigraphic units have been identified and consist of: </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>(1) massive grey limestone; </B></div> <div> <B>(2) A 9-metre marker unit consisting of buff, siliceous limestone at the base grading upward into black orthoquartzite; </B></div> <div> <B>(3) A dark grey, thinly bedded argillite and argillaceous limestone (this unit is about 30 metres thick) </B></div> <div> <B>(4) A distinct buff, silty limestone and limestone conglomerate (maximum thickness of 60 metres); </B></div> <div> <B>(5) black, slaty, graphitic argillite and phyllite of considerable unknown thickness. (Sed-Ex environment)</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Units 1 through 4 are equated with the Badshot Formation and unit 5 with the Lardeau Group.  A major northwest trending fault separates the underlying Badshot Formation from the Lardeau Group. </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Four distinct modes of mineralization have been found either in the buff limestone unit or along the contact between the buff and grey units and comprise: </B></div> <div> <B>(1) stratiform, banded massive galena-sphalerite- tetrahedrite-chalcopyrite found along the contact of buff and grey limestone units.  </B></div> <div> <B>(2)  Massive galena-sphalerite or sphalerite-pyrite-arsenopyrite veins and pods in joints and joint intersections (Like J&L ?)</B></div> <div> <B>(3) Stockwork, massive galena-sphalerite accompanying quartz-carbonate veins in brecciated limestone </B></div> <div> <B>(4) locally occurring galena, sphalerite and pyrite in a 1-2 metre wide quartz vein found intermittently along a major fault. </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Strataform banded pyrite with galena and sphalerite also occurs in dark banded phyllite and shales.</B></div> <bR> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <B><U>NEW ZONE DISCOVERED ON THE ALLCO PROPERTY IN JUNE 2008</U></B></div> <bR> <div> <B>The new zone consists of banded massive galena, sphalerite and tetrahedrite with chalcopyrite. The mineralized zone strikes into the hillside and is exposed in a new logging road cut. The zone is over 2m wide with at least three 20 cm thick bands of massive sulphide's.</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>The thickness of the bottom band has yet to be determined. About 30cm of massive sulphide's are exposed on the bottom band but further excavating is needed in order to determine its true thickness. </B></div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <B><IMG SRC="13a2b80a0.jpg" border=0 width="696" height="522" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <div> <B>NEW DISCOVERY OF MASSIVE SULPHIDES</B></div> <bR> <div> <B><IMG SRC="135ba3780.jpg" border=0 width="419" height="376" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"> <IMG SRC="135f84780.jpg" border=0 width="388" height="376" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Assays over 1.5m are 52.2 gpt Ag, 9.26% Pb, 5.40% Zn</B></div> <div> <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="1" CELLSPACING="1" WIDTH="278" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="#C0C0C0" BORDERCOLORDARK="#808080" FRAME="VOID" RULES="NONE" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" > <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 19 WIDTH="70"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="70" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="65"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="65" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="65"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="65" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="65"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="65" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <bR> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <B>GENERAL GEOLOGY </B></div> <div> <B>CLAIMS & SHOWINGS</B></div> <div> <B><IMG SRC="11f3f45a0.jpg" border=0 width="500" height="346" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <B>Results from a few areas of the available property include... </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>1.2 metres of 7.46 opt Ag,... 0.44% Pb,... 17.69% Zn</B></div> <div> <B>1.2 metres - 0.12 opt Au,... 15.07 opt Ag,... 12.28 % Pb, 9.30% Zn </B></div> <div> <B>1.2 metres - 11.36 opt Ag,... 7.21% Pb,... 18.72% Zn</B></div> <div> <B>Grabs - 27.8 opt Ag,... 16.28% Pb,... 32.56% Zn</B></div> <div> <B>Allco dump grab 2007</B><B>... </B><FONT SIZE="4" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Arial" ><B>1.88 gpt Au - 89.91 oz/t Ag - 42.5% Pb - 4.88% Zn - 300 gpt Sn</B></FONT></div> <bR> <div> <B>Numerous other high grade occurrences are located over 3 Km. by 500 metres in the Allco area alone.</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Assay's from some showings in the Redtop Slide area </B></div> <div> <B>(Sed-ex target) are: 6.5% Zinc over 2 metres as well as grades of 21% Zn and 10.9 opt Ag.</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>The following results are taken from some old reports on the Slide McCallum area:</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>A sample across 3 feet of </B><B>fairly massive yellow to brownish sphalerite </B><B>assayed:  2.50% lead and 32.0% zinc.</B></div> <div> <B>Another sample across 2 feet assayed: 28.8% zinc. </B></div> <div> <B>The total width of mineralized rock is about 20 feet in this area. </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>A sample across another 2 feet of well-mineralized limestone assayed 6.17% zinc, lead 9.8%. </B></div> <div> <B>Another sample across 11 feet of mineralized dolomite adjacent to the limestone assayed: </B><B>lead, 0.77% zinc, 2.1%.
