Jcmancin, thanks for your professional input. I agree the Traps are what will contain the gold, I guess we have different geolocical formations happening here as we heard sometime ago Dale said they change their model on the Greens to incorporate their new way of thinking.

REGIONAL GEOPHYSICS

A further appreciation of the overall setting and structure of the area is given by

available geophysical data. In addition to regional one-mile to one-inch aeromagnetic

coverage, there are in excess of 150 non-confidential 'files that contain ground and

airborne geophysical data on the region (Hosain et aI., 1993). The Geological Survey of

Canada has also completed airborne gradiometer of the Bissett area (GSC, 1988), as well

as recent aeromagnetic and airborne radiometric surveys that cover the entire eastern part

of the belt (Hetu and Holman, 1995).

A synthesis of the aeromagnetic data (Fig. 3) reveals several important features:

1. The most striking feature on the aeromagnetic maps ( McRitchie, 1971 c; Hetu and

Holman, 1995; GSC, 1988, for the Bissett area only) are discontinuous strings of linear,

very strong positive anomalies along the northern and eastern margin of the Rice Lake

belt, northwest of Bissett along the Wanipigow River, in the Wallace Lake-Siderock

Lake area and between Moore Lake and Garner Lake. They are caused by oxide facies

banded iron-formation. The absence of similar anomalies elsewhere in the supracrustal

belt sets these sedimentary and the associated rocks apart from the remainder of the

belt. As described below these iron-formations and the associated rocks are part of a

pre-2.8 Ga platformal assemblage, predating and largely in fault contact with the

younger dominantly volcanogenic assemblages of the Rice Lake Group.

2. A second order of regional, but lower amplitude, positive anomalies marks the

larger younger (

2.73 Ga) granitic intrusions in the greenstone belt and the

metasedimentary gneiss belt to the south. Particularly their margins are magnetically

defined, e. g. the belt-central Ross River pluton, because of contrasts with adjacent

volcanic rocks.

3. Strings of distinctly oval positive anomalies along the northern margin of the belt

between Lake Winnipeg and Bissett are caused by serpentinites. These are spatially

associated with the Wanipigow Fault. The textures of these bodies do not definitively

indicate their origin but it is possible that they represent komatiites which have been

tectonically re-intruded along late fault structures.

4. A large strong magnetic anomaly in the Garner Lake area is caused by the Garner

Lake layered mafic/ultramafic intrusion.

5. A feature that is particularly noticeable on the

is the

weakening, or disappearance, of positive magnetic anomalies in a northerly trending

strip, extending from approximately 5 km west of Bissett to the eastern shore of Rice

Lake. This termination appears to be in part related to the disappearance (or

discontinuity) of iron formation, but the regional feature may be an expression of the

breakdown of magnetite during impregnation with reducing fluids.

..........i guess if we look at the Ross pluton erupting,and i am only shooting in the dark here, but i see this eruption causing a massive turbulent force that along with the earths gravitational pull caused this flow to flow through its top exit and along the Wanipagow Fault and Manitagaon Fault. I see this boron gas flowing through these faults and carring the gold and other elements through the cracks of the brittle volcanic cracks. I see these trace elements like Tourmaline settling in the huge quartze veins from the cooling of the process along with aluminun and other elements. I agree we have different formations on the belt as the Traps had to capture and contain this flow, but i believe that this flow was intense and as long as San puzzle remains a puzzle then our drills will keep active....PS. Jcmancin, what would your opinion be of page ten on the ross river pluton, down load. Thanx for your honest input as i have thick skin so shoot from the hip... Traps7
