Geol on the Three Islands Cl Groups 52E09SE8a85 2.8340 WHITEFISH BAY AND MA 010 GEOLOGICAL REPORT ON THE THREE ISLANDS CLAIM GROUPS LAKE OF THE WOODS, KENORA DISTRICT, ONTARIO N.T.S. 52E/9SW by ULRICH KRETSCHMAR, Ph.D. PATRICK CHEVALIER, B.Se. Prepared for BIGSTONE MINERALS LTD 8 KING STREET EAST, SUITE 1703 TORONTO, ONTARIO M5C 1B5 SEPTEMBER 1984 DIANNE SL ULRICH KRETSCHMAR Geologists R.R.*1. Severn Bridge, Ontario, POE 1NO, Canada (705)689-6431 SUMMARY Three properties: Jenny Leigh, Hay Island and Scotty Island were examined on Lake of the Woods. There are a large number of gold showings and current interest is generally the result of spillover from Nuinsco©s discovery of about l million tons, grading 0.20 oz/ton gold in the Cameron Lake area, about 50 km to southeast. A total of 40 man days were spent on geological mapping, sampling and report preparation on the three properties by Ulrich Kretschmar in August and September. There is a close similarity between the geology of the Jenny Leigh property and the adjacent Wendigo Mine where about 200,000 tons grading 0.33 oz/ton gold and 9.2X copper were produced during 1900-195}.. The value of this production would be about $30 million dollars at current metal prices. Major lithologies consist of mafic volcanics and interbedded differentiated ultramafic flows of probably komatiitic affinity. These are folded in a series of tight isoclinal drag folds on the Wendigo property and the mine horizon is repeated by a major east-west trending syncline on the Jenny-Leigh property. Mineralization on both the Jenny-Leigh property and at the Wendigo Mine occurs in gold-bearing conformable siliceous, locally graphitic interflow sediments. Associated sulfides are mainly chalcopyrite and minor pyrrhotite and pyrite. Two separate horizons have been identified on the Jenny-Leigh property and the potential for the occurrence of others is excellent. The best assay obtained from the stratiform mineralization is 0.15 oz/ton gold over 50 cm. A two stage program is recommended. Initial work is to consist of line-cutting, remapping, stripping, trenching and an I.P. survey. If results of this program warrant it, a 3000 ft. drill program is proposed. On the Hay Island property, fine-grained arsenopyrite and quartz occur as a matrix to a mafic volcanic breccia. Grab samples of the best mineralization gave 0.021 and 0.027 oz/ton gold. On Scotty Island, a 55 ft. shaft is sunk in green chloritic lapilli tuff, about 30 ft. from a quartz vein. No significant results were obtained. No further work is recommended for the Hay Island and Scotty Island properties. DI ANNE 81 ULRICH KRETSCHMAR Geologists R.R.*1, Severn Bridge, Ontario.

Canada (705)689-6431 Page l INTRODUCTION Three properties: Jenny Leigh, Hay Island and Scotty Island, were examined on Lake of the Woods, an area that has seen sporadic exploration and mining of gold since 1868. There are a large number of gold showings and current interest is generally a result of spillover from Nuinsco©s discovery of about l million tons, grading 0.20 oz./ton in the Cameron Lake area, about 50 km. to the SE. Gold mines that are in a similar geologic setting to the Jenny Leigh are, Consolidated Professor, Shoal Lake (currently producing), Sultana and Wendigo, both on Lake of the Woods. Topography on the Jenny Leigh property is variable. The northern part which has been logged and which is underlain by basalt and differentiated flows forms a topographic high. Olivine-rich rocks and andesite weather low. WORK ACCOMPLISHED This is a summary report on geological mapping and sampling carried out by Ulrich Kretschmar and Patrick Chevalier in August and September on the Jenny-Leigh, Scotty Island and Hay Island properties in the Lake of the Woods. A total of 40 man days were spent by Ulrich Kretschmar on all three properties. The work consisted of geological mapping, locating claim posts, sampling of mineralized showings and examining nearby occurrences (Stella, Witch Bay, Wendigo Mine). Two days were spent on each of Scotty and Hay Island examining shoreline exposures, mapping outcrops and examining mineralization and workings. DIANNE A ULRICH KRETSCHMAR Geologists R.R.*1. Severn Bridge. Ontario. POE 1NO, Canada ( 705)689-6431 Page 2 DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS Jenny-Leigh Property There is a close similarity between the geology of the Jenny Leigh property and the adjacent Wendigo Mine. Top determinations using differ entiation trends in flows permits delineation of complex isoclinal folds, which in turn shows that the Wendigo Mine stratigraphy has been repeated by a major syncline and occurs on the Jenny Leigh claims. Two and possibly three mineralized sedimentary interflow horizons have been located on the north limb of the syncline. These should also occur on the south limb. Current market value of the Wendigo production (about 200,000 tons grading 0.33 oz/ton gold and 9 .27, Cu during 1900-1951 and calculated at about $350 US/02, gold and $l US = $1.25 Canadian) is about $30 million Canadian. Assuming that mineralization of approximately the same grade and tonnage can be found, $30 million provides an estimate of the value of the target being sought on the Jenny Leigh property. Hay Island Grab assays from what appears to be the best mineralization gave 0.021 and 0.027 oz/ton Au respectively. These assay results do not warrant further follow-up. Scotty Island Three factors suggest no further work is necessary: 1. Assays are low. 2. The Scotty Island "mine" shaft is not on the claim group and 3. The shore line of Scotty Island is lined by cottages, the closest one being 550 ft. from the shaft. DIANNE 4 ULRICH KRETSCHMAR Geologists R.R.*1, Severn Bridge, Ontario, POE 1NO. Canada (705)689-6431 Page 3 RECOMMENDATIONS Jenny-Leigh Property 1. Cut lines on the Jenny-Leigh property at 150 ft. spacing (in between the existing 300 ft. lines) in the area bounded by L15W/6S, 15W/27S and L15E/6S, L15E/27S. (Total of 2.75 line-miles). Establish pickets at 25 ft. intervals. 2. Rechain existing lines in the new grid area. 3. Remap entire area covered by new grid at a scale of l in. = 150 ft. Map in location of trenches more accurately. 4. Clean out and freshen all trenches at Showings l to 4 and collect assay samples across widths. Strip the area around Showing No. 2 by bulldozer and backhoe. Panel sample the vein exposed in the Stella adit to get an idea of the variability of the mineralization. 5. Do IP survey using 100 ft. spacing of electrodes. 6. Drill off mineralized horizons, contingent on results of the above work. An estimated budget for this program is presented below. Hay Island and Scotty Island Properties No further work is recommended. DIANNE 4 ULRICH KRETSCHMAR Geologists R.R.*1, Severn Bridge, Ontario, POE 1NO, Canada (705)689-6431 Page 4

IJEA Vol. 21 No. 1 - http://www.ijea.org/v21n1/ 2 Abstract Indigenous youth face numerous challenges in terms of their well-being. Colonization enforced land and cultural loss, fractured relationships, and restricted the use of the imagination and agentic capacity (Colonial policies, structures, and approaches in education have been detrimental to Indigenous youth (Nardozi, 2013). Many First Nations leaders, community members, and youth have expressed a need for a wider range of activities that move beyond Western models of knowledge and learning (Goulet & Goulet, 2015). School curricula in Indigenous communities are incorporating alternative pedagogical tools, such as the arts, that not only allow youth to explore and express their realities and interests but that also offer them holistic ways of learning and knowing (Yuen et al., 2013). This article describes a participatory arts research project which featured film production and was delivered in the context of a grade 10 Communications Media course.

The Wetiko Legal Principles: Cree and Anishinabek Responses to Violence and Victimization by Hadley Louise Friedland Abstract Can we reject a monstrous act without rejecting the actor as a monster? This is the question occupying Hadley Louise Friedland, Assistant Professor of Law at the University of Alberta, in The Wetiko Legal Principles: Cree and Anishinabek Responses to Violence and Victimization. Speaking broadly, the book is dedicated to identifying and examining Indigenous laws for guidance on how Indigenous communities can deal with high rates of interpersonal violence in Indigenous communities today, particularly violence against children. The innovation in Friedland’s work is her creative use of source material: She takes as her starting point traditional Cree and Anishinabek stories about wetikos, or cannibal giants, which she positions as vestibules of Indigenous law.

    Baring the Windigo’s Teeth: The Fearsome Figure in Native American Narratives Carol Edelman Warrior A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Docrtor of Philosophy University of Washington 2015 Reading Committee: 1 Brian M. Reed, Chair Dian Million Christopher Teuton Luana Ross Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Department of English © Copyright 2015 Carol Edelman Warrior University of Washington Abstract Baring the Windigo’s Teeth: Fearsome Figures in Native American Narratives Carol Edelman Warrior Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Brian M. Reed Department of English Whereas non-Native American fictional fearsome figures tend to produce anxiety from their resistance to categorization, their unpredictable movement, and their Otherness, many contemporary Native American writers re-imagine fearsome figures and monstrous systems as modeled after, and emergent from settler-colonial transgressions against Indigenous values and relationships: these behaviors spread to tribal people/s through incorporation or assimilation into the “body” of the fearsome figure. Such violations can be represented by, and better understood, through an exploration of the behavioral traits of the Algonquian figure of the 2 Windigo, or wétiko, even when the text in question would not be classified as horror. In the Indigenous works of fiction that this dissertation explores, villainy is depicted as behavior that destroys balance, and disrupts the ability for life to reproduce itself without human mediation or technological intervention. In this dissertation, I develop and apply “Windigo Theory”: an Indigenous literary approach to reading Indigenous fiction, especially intended to aid recognition and comprehension of cultural critiques represented by the fearsome figures.

  • Proposals for the Rehabilitation of Grenadier Pond, Wendigo Creek and Associated Wetlands
    PROPOSALS FOR THE REHABILITATION OF GRENADIER POND, WENDIGO CREEK AND ASSOCIATED WETLANDS PREPARED FOR: CITY OF TORONTO PARKS AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT PREPARED BY: GARTNER LEE LIMITED JUNE,1995 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY As part of the High Park planning study, the City of Toronto put fon\'ard a number of ·proposals for the restoration and management of the Park, including the rehabilitation of the Grenadier Pond system having regard for such matters as water quality and quantity, nutrient loading, sediment quality, and habitat and species djversity among others. Park users have expressed a growing concern over such issues as the degradation of water and sediment quality,. the abundance of nuisance waterfowl and the loss of habitat for fish and wildlife. In September of 1993, Gartner Lee Limited was retained by the City of Toronto to prepare a rehabilitation plan for Grenadier Pond, Wendigo Creek and associated wetlands, cOllectively referred to as the pond system. This study essentially had four objectives: 1. To improve the understanding of the physical chemical and biological conditions in the pond system; 2. To identify and quantify factors which have contributed to changing environmental conditions in the po~d syst.em; 3. To identify options for the rehabilitation of the pond system, within the context of the existing park setting and public uses; and 4. To develop a monitoring program to assess the future effects of the rehabilitation on the pond system. , The consulting team was assisted by a Technical steering committee which included members from the City of Toronto, Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority, Ministry of Natural Resources, Ministry of Environment and Energy, Environment Canada, Toronto Field Naturalists and members of the public.

  • Tracking the Sasquatch
    THE EVOLUTION OF “MONSTERS” IN NORTH AMERICAN EXPLORATION AND TRAVEL LITERATURE 1607-1930 By ADAM SHOALTS, B.A. (HONOURS), M.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University © Copyright by Adam Shoalts January 2019 i McMaster University DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2019) Hamilton, Ontario (History) TITLE: The Evolution of “Monsters” in North American Exploration and Travel Literature 1607-1930 AUTHOR: Adam Shoalts, B.A. (HONOURS), (Brock University), M.A., (McMaster University) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Ken Cruikshank NUMBER OF PAGES: 285. ii Abstract: In the first two centuries of European exploration of North America, accounts of monsters, including ones given by Indigenous guides, were largely accepted by Europeans as reflecting actual creatures. Gradually, under the influence of a range of factors, this dynamic shifted over time. Continued exploration, the spread of Enlightenment ideas, and changing material circumstances led to a decline in the belief in monsters—or at least put the belief in them beyond respectability, thereby enlarging the cultural gulf between various Indigenous cultures and European explorers and settlers, or at least the social elite of that latter group. In Canada, as argued here, the “sasquatch” was a hybrid creation combining Indigenous and European traditions; the windigo was an Indigenous monster tradition; the “grisly bear” was predominately a monster of the European imagination. Perceptions of each in European exploration literature followed a similar trajectory of increasing skepticism. Each evolved from creatures that were depicted as innately hostile or dangerous into somewhat more benign pop culture images as they lost their potency once the frontier receded and North America urbanized.
