Marie^ The town of Elliot Lake^ serving the uranium mines of the district, lies in the southern part of Township 149 immediately t o the south. Access t o Elliot Lake from Hwy. 17 i s by Hwy. 108. A northwestwards extension of Hwy. 108 t o meet Hwy, 546 i s under construction^ The area was included in Collins' (1925) report on The North Shore of Lake Huron^ Detailed mapping (1 inch t o 4^ mile) was carried out by Abraham (1956) and revised by Robertson in 1962 and I963. Adjacent areas have been mapped by Ontario Dept^ Mines (McDowell 1957i ONTARIO DEPARTMENT OF MINES Robertson, I960, 1961, 1962, 1963a, 1963b). Roscoe (1957, 1958) and Pienaar (1958) of the Geol. Surv, Canada have carried out considerable PRELIMINARY GEOLOGICAL MAP No. P. 192 work in the district. Much geological and mining information has been published by the mining companies of the area(C.I M.M,), TOWNSHIP ISO General Geology DISTRICT O F ALGOMA The regional geology i s shown on O.D.Mo map No., 2032. The rocks belong t o three main units; (1) the Algoman-Keewatin basanent, (2) the Scale I Inch t© 1/4 Mile Huronlan sedimentary rocks and (3) Keweenawan basic intrusions (Nipissing type). Pleistocene and Recent sands, gravels, and swamp deposits cover the bedrock in places. N.TS. Reference 41 J/7, 41 J/IO The oldest Precambrian rocks exposed are Keewatin (?) volcanic O.D.M. Aeromagnefic Map 42 rocks with minor pyroclastics and metasedimentary rocks. These are exposed t o the northeast of Quirke Lake but are known t o underlie the Huronian in the southeast part of the township. The Keewatin (?) rocks are intruded by the Algoman granites* The latter may be divided into two groups. The first consists of grey t o pink, massive t o gneissic, granodiorite t o granite with numerous Keewatin (?) inclusions. The second i s a massive t o porphyritic quartz monzonite, generally without inclusions and slightly radioactive. The northern third of the township i s largely underlain by the second typej in the southwestern part of the township, the Huronian i s probably underlain by granites of the first type. After the intrusion of the granitic rocks the region was eroded t o a peneplane; remnants of the soils and weathered rocks of this period are locally preserved^ Huronian sedimentation began with coarse­ grained sediments derived largely from weathered granite, Uraniferous quartz-pebble conglomerate of the Lower Mississagi Formation was deposited in local channels and depressions. Major uranium deposits were formed in the Quirke channel of the Elliot Lake troughj the location of this depression was controlled by the underlying granite-greenstone contact. Conglomerates, quartzites, siltstones, and limestones, all derived from the northwest and deposited in cold shallow water, make up the various formations of the Bruce Group* The lower formations of the Bruce Group overlap northwards along the shore of Quirke Lake. The upper formations of the Bruce Group are well exposed on the west shore of Quirke Lake# In the southwest part of the township they may be cut out by an unconformity. The Bruce Group i s overlain unconformably by the Cobalt Group which, in Township 150, consists of the Gowganda Formation and the Lorrain Formation. The Gowganda Formation i s a heterogeneous assemblage of conglomerates, quartzites, greywackes, and siltstones} the lower part may have formed under glacial or subglacial conditions. There are excellent exposures along Hwy. 108., Crossbedded feldspathic quartzites correlated with the Lorrain Formation are exposed t o the south of Dunlop Lake. The above mentioned rocks were folded about a synclinal axis trending slightly south of east and lying just south of Dunlop and Quirke Lakes, Large irregular sill-like diabase bodies were intruded into ^tensional' areas of the fold, Some faults and joints were developed parallel t o the bedding and t o the axial plane of the fold; others strike north, northwest, and northeast. Data available on structure indicate that the fold formed as the result of a north—south compression. During relaxation of the compressive forces fractures were intruded by quartz diabase. In the past this diabase has generally been correlated in age with the Keweenawan diabase but i t i s of the Nipissing type; recent age determinations show that i t i s much older than the Keweenawan period. Local albitization, chloritization, and minor sulphide mineralization may be associated with the diabase intrusions. Pleistocene glaciation removed the soil and resulted in the deposition of sand and gravel particularly in the valley of the Serpent River^ Several large pits were opened during the construction of Elliot Lake and development of the surrounding area• Economic Geology Extensive prospecting has been carried out, mainly for uranium, in the period 1953-1-957* Much of the central and southern parts of the township was drilledo A zone containing uraniferous quartz-pebble conglomerates of ore grade was delineated at or near the base of the Lower Mississagi Formation in the Qu^lirke Lake area and eastward into Township 144 (Robertson, 196I), The zone strikes northwest-southeast and i s apparently controlled by basement structure and i s also parallel t o the current-direction as shown by structures preserved in the rock (McDowell, 1957). The total length of the ore zone in the direction of the channel i s 32,000 feet and the lateral extent varies from 6,000 t o 9,000 (Derry, I960). The conglomerates consist of well-rounded, well-sorted, quartz pebbles in a matrix of quartz, feldspar, and sericite and a pyrite content of 15-25 percent, Monazite and zircon are characteristic heavy minerals, Brannerite and uraninite are found as submicroscopic grains in the matrix^ Thucholite i s found locally. Individual conglomerate bands a few feet in width may assay as high as 20 lbs, or more, U30g t o the ton, but over mining widths of the order of 9 feet t o 30 feet the average grade i s 2-3 lbs.

Clulow, Laurentian University. ABSTRACT Radionuclide levels were measured in tissues, gut contents, and diet items of adult beaver and ruffed grouse from the Serpent River drainage basin (which contains the city of Elliot Lake) and control sites in Ontario, and in beaver and muskrat fetuses frcm females taken in the same basin. Levels of radium 226 in beaver bone, muscle and kidney were highest in animals from locations close to uranium tailings; liver levels did not vary by site. Grouse taken near Elliot Lake has higher bone levels of radium 226 than distant controls; levels in other tissues did not vary by site. Environmental radi-Tn 226 levels were within ranges previously reported at these or similar locations elsewhere; levels in beaver and grouse gut contents reflected levels in diet items. Fetal beaver tissues had higher radium 226 levels than maternal tissues; fetal liver tissue carried higher levels than other body tissues in general; fetal levels varied with maternal levels but also inversely with fetal size (and thus age).

  • APPENDIX A: MINERAL PROJECT 1. Property Description And
    APPENDIX A: MINERAL PROJECT 1. Property Description and Location (a) The Appia uranium-REE property (the “Property”) comprises a group of 100 unpatented staked mineral claims located in Buckles, Bouck, Beange, Bolger, Gunterman, Joubin and Lehman Townships and near the town of Elliot Lake in north-central Ontario. Elliot Lake is located on Highway 108 approximately 26 km north of Highway 17, also known as the Trans-Canada Highway. The area is situated in UTM zone 17. The geographic co-ordinates of the town of Elliot Lake are 46o23’N latitude and 82o39’W longitude. The Property totals 12,545 hectares (31,000 acres) encompassing five mineralized zones called Teasdale, Banana Lake, Canuc, Bouck Lake and Buckles Lake. The claims have not been surveyed. (b) Appia has a 100% interest in the mineral rights, having initially acquired 61 claims from Canada Enerco Corporation (“CEC”), a related company, under the terms of an agreement dated November 1, 2007. CEC originally staked the claims in accordance with the Mining Act of Ontario. Two claims were transferred to Denison Mines Inc. (“Denison”) in order to permit the construction of a new tailings infrastructure; in exchange Appia acquired the right of access onto claims held by Denison in the Elliot Lake area as well as the right to use former Denison mine workings to facilitate the exploration and development by Appia. Denison granted Appia a 3% net smelter return royalty on any production from the two claims transferred by Appia. Appia purchased 6 claims from Dan Patrie Exploration Ltd. (“Patrie”) in February 2008 and subsequently staked an additional 35 claims.
