in mafic volcanic breccia during mapping. As in previous field programs in 2013, 2016 and 2018
any significantly mineralized quartz-sulphide exposures encountered within the mapping area
during 2019 were prospected, and sampled if warranted (see Figure 5a).
Structural measurements taken from outcrops during the 2019 geological mapping program
totaled 20, including 18 foliation or shearing measurements plus 2 vein measurements. During
the field program, several exposures of geological structures were observed along the mapped
portions of the bed of Murex Creek due to fairly low water levels, and in the few other outcrops
mapped. Only 11 outcrops in total were observed and mapped during the 2019 program.
Geological mapping of outcrops and structures was compiled digitally at 1:5,000 scale using
Geosoft Target (see Figure 5a). Geological interpretation of lithologies, contacts and faults
were also completed digitally using Geosoft Target (see Figure 5b). Two sub-parallel, NEstriking and steeply-dipping faults interpreted from the 2016 program were partially verified in
the 2019 mapping area, forming an inferred graben or horst structure bracketed by Murex
Creek to the NW and a small creek to the SE. The elliptical body of Intermediate Intrusive
Breccia (IIBx) mapped in previous programs is interpreted to terminate to the NE within the
mapping area. Three outcrops of quartz-sulphide stockwork mineralized Mafic Volcanic Breccia
(MVBx) were mapped in the bed of Murex Creek and along Murex Main road, and is interpreted
to form a halo around the Intermediate Intrusive Breccia. Mafic volcanics (MV) were mapped
in the far NW and SE of the mapping area, and in Murex Creek contained quartz-sulphide veins.
Concurrent with the geological mapping, where significant mineralization was encountered, 3
select outcrop grab rock samples were taken from blasted rock cuts along logging roads or
quarries, or natural outcrops from the bed of Murex Creek. In addition, one cluster of highly
mineralized float samples was observed and sampled along Tsolum Main road, possibly spilled
during the 1960’s from a truck transporting ore from the MWC mine to the mill site. At each
sample site, GPS locations and site and sample characteristics were recorded on water-proof
forms, and metal tags with sample numbers and flagging tape were affixed to adjacent shrubs
or tree branches. All 4 rock samples were taken in duplicate, and one of each duplicate sample
pair was sent on July 19, 2019 by the author via Greyhound Bus Parcel Express to AGAT
Laboratories in Mississauga, Ontario for sample preparation and geochemical analysis at their
other facilities in Canada. The other duplicate sample pair was retained by the author, cut into
1 cm. thick slabs by the author using a rock saw, and analyzed using a binocular microscope.
2019 rock sample data appears in Appendix 1.

=======================================================

On August 20, 2019 final geochemical results were received from AGAT Laboratories in Report
19T498948, which appears in Appendix 2. All rock sample taken were select grabs with the sole
purpose of characterizing the mineralization, and should not be assumed to be representative
of the mineralization. The significant results and interpretation of the 2019 rock sample sites is
discussed by sample location (see Figure 5a), by elevated target (gold, silver, copper,
molybdenum) and indicator (arsenic, cobalt, vanadium, tungsten, zinc) element proportional
size plots (see Figures 5c-5k) integrated with gridded soil geochemistry data, and by sample
number as follows:
• Sample E5123695 was taken selectively from a convergence of two quartz-sulphide
veins: one 0.25 m. thick @ 055/65 and the other 0.05 m. thick @ 075/90 hosted in mafic
volcanics exposed in the bed of Murex Creek at the NW end of Murex Main logging
road, and yielded 4.93% copper, 26.2 g/t silver and 899 ppm zinc
• Sample E5123696 was 5 m. thick exposure of quartz-sulphide breccia hosted in mafic
volcanic breccia exposed in a road cut outcrop along the SW side of Murex Main logging
road, and yielded 0.42% copper and 451 ppm vanadium
• Sample E5123697 was taken from a cluster of quartz-sulphide vein fragments found in
the road gravel (float) on a branch road from Tsolum Main logging road, and yielded
4.13% copper, 29.8 g/t silver, 233 ppm cobalt, 66 ppm tellurium and 1160 ppm zinc
The highly elevated values of copper and silver in quartz-sulphide vein samples E5123695 and
E5123697 in the NW part of the mapping area are very encouraging, and have similar
mineralogy and geochemistry as the flat-dipping vein mined by the Mount Washington Copper
operation in the 1960’s. Prospecting by the author in the area surrounding road float sample
E5123697 was unsuccessful in locating any outcrop, so the sample could have a local sub-crop
or quarry source, or have been transported from another area such as the MWC open pits, or
stockpiles from the mill site. The elevated values of copper and vanadium in quartz-sulphide
breccia is encouraging, and comparable to those found previously in the Murex Breccia.
Concurrently, from July 16 to July 18, 2019 field technician Adrian Houle and the author
completed “B” horizon soil sampling in the same area as the geological mapping where very
few outcrops are exposed except in rare logging road cuts and small rock quarries and along
Murex Creek. Seventy-two (72) “B” horizon soil samples were taken at approximately 50 m.
