kinda think thats funny Andy. I recall the old days ( back at sh ) when some of the boys West of Ont, would call me X- box. I guess that moose pasture is starting to look pretty good.

This field trip will examine the main lithostratigraphic assemblages and structural

settings of gold deposits in the Rice Lake greenstone belt in Uchi Subprovince. A circa

2.93 Ga quartzite-bearing continental platform assemblage and a circa 2.87 Ga

komatiite-bearing mafic plain assemblage will be examined near Wallace and Garner

Lakes respectively. An arc assemblage of circa 2.73 Ga mafic flows, intermediate

volcanic rocks and synvolcanic intrusions of the Rice Lake Group, host to most gold

deposits in the district, will be viewed in the Wadhope and Bissett areas. A slightly

younger and more felsic, shallow-water volcanic assemblage composed of ignimbrites,

tuffs and mafic flows will be visited near the Manigotagan River where it is overlain by

turbidites of the Edmunds Lake Formation, possibly representing a fore-arc

assemblage. The youngest rocks in the belt, cross-bedded arenites of the San Antonio

Formation, will be examined in the Bissett area where they unconformably overlie the

Rice Lake Group. The settings of San Antonio, Central Manitoba and Gunnar gold

deposits will receive particular attention during the trip.
