- INTRODUCTION:

One diamond drill hole within the Steeples East Group of claims (Steeples #5) was completed - during this assessment period to explain an oval shaped magnetic low within a Devonian sedimentary unit (Figure 5), possibly associated with an ultramafic, diamond bearing, intrusive body. Past research and exploration from a number of academics and companies have discovered Devonian alkalic ultrabasic diatremes, and in some instances kimberlites (Cross Lake Kimberlite) within the area (Pell, 1987).

Selected samples were sent for XRF and XRD analysis.

- I Types of Mineralization

The following is a brief description of the types of mineralization known within the area.

Quartz-Carbonate-Sulphide VEIN SYSTEMS in SHEAR ZONE envelopes:

Vein systems can be massive, tens of feet wide to a few inches width in stockworks and horsetails. Sulphides are chalcopyrite, pyrite, pyrrhotite mainly, with minor galena and arsenopyrite. Quartz is the major gangue mineral followed by carbonates (dolomite and siderite). Gold is associated with the sulphides and/or occurs as free gold in the quartz gangue and within silcified zones in the shear envelopes.

Host rocks are partly silicified and chloritised argillites, argillaceous quartzites, and quart&es mainly of the Aldridge formation. Other host rocks include the argillites of the Creston and Gateway formations. The meta diorite dykes and sills of the Moyie Sill group have some degree of spatial relationship to the vein systems, but their role in the mode of origin of mineralisation is CI not clear.

The Bull River Mine, just off the southern boundary of Steeples #l 1, is an excellent example of this type of mineralisation. Other related examples of this type include the Strathcona-Empire, the Rex-Zone, the Dean Zone, the Treasure Zone, the Don and Rimrock Zones. c Conformable (Syngenetic?) Massive Sulphide Deposit

These are characterised by mainly conformable (to bedding) massive sulphides within the Aldridge formation. Sulphides are galena, sphalerite, pyrrhotite, with zones of massive pyrite. Z,oning of sulphides is common, so is alteration, such as chloritisation and tourmaline. The host C rock lithology is very similar to the Bull River Mine. The Sullivan Mine is a prime example of this type, and is located west-northwest of the property, on the other side of the Trench. L.ocation of a Sullivan Type of ore body east of the Trench has been a long-term exploration goal P in this part of British Columbia.

3 C, Quartz Lode Type with Sulphides and/or Free Gold:

The Cretaceous-Tertiary quartz-monzonite and granodiorite intrusives in the area have potential for this type of mineralisation, and may be source areasfor some of the placer told deposits.

Vein Type Galena-Sphalerite Mineralisation associated with Major Structures:

C This type of mineralisation has been found to date in the Aldridge, Creston, and the Lower Cambrian formations. Mineralisation occurs as fillings and replacement with faults and associated fissure systems. Examples of this type are the Burt, OK Zones and possibly the Great Western Zone, all to the south-southeast of the Steeples claims. The Estella Mine and the Kootenay King Mine further north of the property are also of this type, and so is the St. Eugene Mine across the Trench to the west.

Alkalic Ultrabasic Diatreme Breccias and Kimberlite

A number of ultrabasic diatremes and kimberlite (Cross Diatreme) have been reported over the past couple of decades (Pell, 1987). These intrusive structures are spatially associated with the r- deformation period resulting in the creation of the Western and Main Ranges of the Rocky Mountains (Figure 6). Most of the diatremes located have been identified as having affiliations to kimberlite, with exception of the Cross Diatreme which has been identified as kimberlite. On rare occasions (near Golden) have diamonds been discovered from these diatremes (Pell 1986).

Structure and Structural Evolution

The property and the immediate area are divided into a number of tectono-stratigraphic domains. The primary divisions include the on the west edges of the C Steeples claims, and the WESTERN ROCKY MOUNTAINS on the rest of the claims (refer to Figure 7)

The Western Rocky Mountains:

C The Western Rocky Mountains form the eastern edge of the Purcell anticlinorium, against the Rocky Mountain thrust belt. The geology is fairly complex, with structural evolution mainly tied to the Hosmer Thrust. This complex history is discussed in a subsequent section of the report.

The Western Rocky Mountains in this area are further subdivided into three major tectono- stratigraphic terrains by east trending reverse fault system. The northern segment is the STEEPLES RANGE DOMAIN, whose northern boundary is marked by the DIBBLE FAULT SYSTEM and the southern boundary by the BULL CANYON FAULT SYSTEM. Most of the Steeples claims are within this segment. South of the Bull Canyon Fault is the relatively complex SAND CREEK - DOMAIN, that includes the Lizard Range. It is bounded in the north partly by the BULL CANYON FAULT and to the south by the SAND

4 CREEK FAULT. Both of the Steeples and the Sand Creek - Lizard Range Domains are part of the LIZARD SEGMENT of the HOSMER THRUST, and is part of the structurally highest portion of the southern Rocky Mountains.

The southern most domain is the BROADWOOD ANTICLINE bounded in the north by the Sand Creek Fault (different that the Upper Sand Creek Fault), and has a southern boundary off the property near Mt. Broadwood.

The Steeples Range Domain:

The Dibble Fault is a right lateral reverse fault dipping northward at 55 degrees. The compression forces were NW-SE across the fault, with the East trending fault line a result of the combination of vertical component of displacement (equivalent to 1Okm of stratigraphic separation across the fault - along east wall of Trench), and a horizontal component that moved the northern hangingwall E-NE.

The Dibble Fault coincides partly with a more ancient feature - the Dibble Creek Monocline that marked the northern edge of ‘Montania” a structural high. This High was the site of intermittent, basement-controlled block faulting that controlled Purcell sedimentation and caused drape folding the early Paleozoic. This monocline and an overlying gypsum deposit controlled the C configuration and evolution of the Dibble Fault (and the Lizard Fault further southeast). The gypsum bed is partly preserved in the footwall of the fault and exhibits little evidence of stress, but the more competent hanging wall formations are truncated by the fault. 9 In essence,the Dibble Creek fault placed rocks formed north of the monocline over rocks deposited on top of the monocline. However, the current stratigraphy is also a result of the fact that prior to the fault, deposition in the Paleozoic was restricted on the Steeples side of the monocline (structural high), and the pre-Devonian unconformity cut deeper into the Purcell formations on this high. As a result, in the Steeples Domain there is only a thin veneer of Devonian rocks, while north of the Dibble Fault the Paleozoic section includes a more complete section from Cambrian to the Ordovician, that intervenes between the Precambrian Purcell and the Devonian formations. !- In addition, as the rock mass overrode the monocline, there was gravitational resistance to upward displacement, causing NE TRENDING THRUST faults folds and cleavage in the rocks. )” As the mass went over the crest of the monocline it was subjected to lateral gravitational spreading (southeastward extension) causing new NE TRENDING NORMAL FAULTS or converting older NE trending thrust faults to extension (normal) faults.

While the north boundary of the Sand Creek segment is mainly marked by the Bull Canyon Fault, the Lizard Range segment’s north end is crumpled by complex faults and nappe-like folds that are overturned to the southeast and south, causing the strata to bend sharply from a NW trend to NE near the drainage area of Iron Creek. This trend continues northeast just east of the Steeples claims to Sulphur Creek where the NW trend and folds overturned east-northeast resumes to form the mountains north of Femie and between the upper Elk and upper Bull Rivers.

WHAT IS A KIMBERLITE

A kimberlite is an ultrabasic rock originating within the upper mantle, approximately 150 kilometres beneath the earth’s crust. When viewed, either in core or hand speciman, a kimberlite normally displays a brecciated texture by incorporating multiple rock units while rapidly ascending to the surface. These individual rock units within a kimberlite are called xenoliths. Ideally there are two types of xenoliths - those derived from the mantle and those derived form the crust.

Mantle xenoliths, when present in a kimberlite, provide insight as to whether a kimberlite has potential to carry diamonds. Diamonds originate in the mantle because of favourable - temperatures and pressures associated at these depths. For kimberlite exploration two types of mantle xenoliths are sought after - eclogite or peridotite xenoliths. These two xenolith types are composed of minerals such as pyrope garnet, picroilmenite, chrome diopside, olivine, and perhaps diamonds themselves. Geochemical analysis of these “diamond indicator minerals” can usually determine if a particular kimberlite is favourable for hosting diamonds,

When exploring for kimberlite, through geochemical sample, diamond drilling, or whatever method is used, finding diamond indicator minerals is the best way in determining if a target is a potential kimberiite. Further analysis will.determine if a kimberlite is diamondiferous.

1999 EXPLORATION PROGRAM OBJECTIVES, SCOPE OF WORK

One drill hole, 99STP4-01 was drilled on the Steeples East Group, more specifically on Steeples # 5 claim (refer to Figure 4). The prime objective for this hole was to explain an oval shaped - magnetic low, perhaps associated with an ultrabasic diatreme, within a Basal Devonian conglomeratic unit (refer to Figure 5; Db on superimposed geology map is Devonian Basal Conglomerate from T. Hoy, 1993). Previous research and exploration in the southeastern Kootney region (Figure 6) has identified alkalic ultrabasic breccia diatremes (Pell, 1985; Pell, 1986) with possible kimberlite affinity (Ijewliw, 1986). Stratigraphically, these diatremes are hosted by Cambrian to Devonian sediments and are capped by Middle to Upper Devonian (Pell, - 1985). Drilling a diamond drill hole from the Steeples # 5 claim was decided upon since previous surface mapping on the Devonian conglomerate unit did not suggest a local magnetic low, but rather a high due to the abundant of hematite within the unit.

A secondary objective was to drill through the Devonian conglomerate unit, send splits of crushed core for XRF analysis, and use the information to see if any kimberlite indicator minerals could be recovered (refer to analytical analysis in Appendix 2). The Devonian conglomerate could represent a palaeo-placer depositional environment for earlier intrusive diatremes and any convincing indications from the analysis could warrant further exploration.

Subsequent to drilling through the Devonian conglomerate, a decision was made to continue drilling until a satisfactory explanation for the magnetic anomaly was apparent (refer to drill log

6 -- in Appendix 1). Selected crushed core samples and whole core samples were sent for XRF and XRD analysis since positive visual identification was unattainable.

- Analytical testing was completed at The Mineral Lab in Lakewood, Colorado. Two groups of samples were sent -- 3 1 crushed core samples for XRF analysis and 25 core samples for XRF and XRD analysis.

Sample preparation for XRF analysis consisted of the following: A representative portion of each sample was ground by a steel swing mill to -400 mesh followed by The Mineral Lab’s standard - XRF-powder procedure for 3 1 major, minor and trace elements. Precision, using a Philips 1600/l 0 simultaneous, wavelength dispersive unit equipped with 26 fixed and two scanning detectors, is approximately 5- 10% for major-minor elements and lo- 15% for trace elements, For analytical results refer to Appendix 2.

Sample preparation for the specimens selected for XRD analysis was the same as the XRF samples. Following sample preparation each ground sample was packed into a well-type holder and scanned using an appropriate diffractometer with a detection limit of l-3 %; reproducibility is approximately equal to the square root of this amount. XRD analysis was carried out using a Siemens “D5000matic” system. For analytical results refer to Appendix 2.

Costs applied to this assessment period include all costs related to diamond drilling of this hole - plus all analytical and report writing costs.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS:

Drilling, and subsequent data analysis, has shown the most probable explanation for the weak magnetic low is attributed to the Fez03 difference between the Devonian Basal Conglomerate and the underlying Silurian unit (?) composed of shales, limestone and dolomite. These rock types were interpreted from plotting XRD date on a Al203 - SiO2 - CaO,MgO, Fe203 Tertiary plot This magnetic low anomaly would therefore represent an area that begins approximately 122.0 - metres below the present surface.

No diamond indicator minerals were discovered using XRF and XRD analytical techniques. However, there seemed to be an unusually high Cr content within the basal conglomerate. This may imply the presence of a higher percentage of chromium diopside within the conglomerate unit, which could be derived from an ultrabasic diatreme. It is recommended that a program of stream sediment sampling down-stream of the Devonian Basal Conglomerate be initiated. This will verify the presence of any indicator minerals that may be sourced from this area. Once positive identification of indicator minerals is achieved then continue sampling upstream until a target area is blocked out. Once this is completed all geophysical anomalies can be prioritized and a drilling program initiated.
