Nakina Property: Overview

Naina属性:概述

The Nakina Property is conveniently road-accessible via the seasonal Maun Lake forest access road, and located approximately 90 km north of the town of Geraldton and 300 km northeast of Thunder Bay. Spanning 7,390 hectares across 360 mineral tenures within the Northern Thunder Bay Mining Division, the Property is underlain by the Maytham-Queenston Lakes pegmatitic pluton. Historical bedrock mapping and mineralogy reports have identified lithium-bearing pegmatites within this granitic body.

通过季节性的莫恩湖森林通道可方便地从道路上到达纳基纳酒店,该酒店位于杰拉尔顿镇以北约90公里、桑德贝东北约300公里处。该矿藏占地7,390公顷,分布在北雷德湾矿业部门的360个矿藏中,位于梅瑟姆-昆斯顿湖伟晶岩体之下。历史基岩填图和矿物学报告已在该花岗岩体内发现了含锂伟晶岩。

The Property is located adjacent to Green Technology Metals' highly advanced Seymour Project area and directly adjacent to their Superb Lake Lithium prospect; therefore, the Nakina Property presents a unique opportunity for exploration. Surprisingly, this area has seen little to no prior systematic exploration efforts, positioning it as a highly prospective grassroots project.

该项目毗邻Green Technology Metals高度先进的Seymour项目区,并直接毗邻其极佳的锂湖勘探前景;因此,Naina项目为勘探提供了一个独特的机会。令人惊讶的是,这一地区以前几乎没有系统的勘探工作,将其定位为一个极具前景的基层项目。

Phase One Yields Promising Results

第一阶段产生令人振奋的结果

The Phase One exploration program has yielded promising results, successfully identifying lithium mineralization in bedrock, and areas displaying elevated content of LCT pathfinder minerals. An observed enrichment zonation pattern has been noted on the Property within the Maytham-Queenston Lakes pluton rocks; this is a feature of the LCT pegmatite deposit model as per (F.W. Breaks, J.B. Selway and A.G. Tindle - 2006)

第一阶段勘探计划取得了令人振奋的成果,成功地在基岩中发现了锂矿化,并在LCT探路者矿物含量较高的地区发现了锂矿化。在梅瑟姆-昆斯顿湖岩体中发现了一种观察到的富集带模式;这是LCT伟晶岩矿床模型的一个特征(F.W.Break,J.B.Selway和A.G.Tindle-2006)

A Comprehensive Approach to Exploration

探索的综合方法

A systematic property-wide grassroots exploration program was conducted, including bedrock mapping and grab sampling in accessible areas, as well as hand auger sampling where bedrock was obscured by gravel or glacial till. The aim of the Phase One program was to build upon geological mapping and sampling results reported by Breaks et al. (2006):

开展了一项系统的全财产基层勘探计划,包括在可接近的地区绘制基岩地图和抓取样本,以及在基岩被砾石或冰川覆盖的地方进行手动螺旋取样。第一阶段计划的目的是建立在Break等人报告的地质制图和采样结果的基础上。(2006):

This work reported the presence of fertile parental granitic rocks and lithium-rich pegmatites within the Maytham-Queenston lakes pluton.

这项工作报告了梅瑟姆-昆斯顿湖岩体中存在肥沃的母花岗岩和富锂伟晶岩。

A field team comprising four personnel, spent a total of 27 field days on the property earlier this summer. They collected 183 bedrock samples and 73 till samples across the entire property. The sampling approach was meticulously planned to ensure thorough property-wide exploration coverage.

今年夏天早些时候,一个由四名人员组成的外地小组在该财产上总共花了27个实地日。他们在整个房产中收集了183个基岩样本和73个TIL样本。抽样方法经过精心规划,以确保彻底覆盖整个财产的勘探范围。

Confirmation of Preliminary Work

前期工作的确认

The Phase One program has not only confirmed but also expanded upon the results of earlier work. Pegmatitic granite zones, displaying LCT pegmatite deposit-style mineralization, have been identified and confirmed within the fertile peraluminous S-type granitic host rocks at the Nakina Property. Additionally, geochemical anomalies consistent with LCT pegmatite style mineralization have been observed in both rock and till samples. This suggests the presence of LCT-enriched pegmatite dykes. As per the two references provided above.

第一阶段计划不仅确认了早期工作的结果,而且还扩大了早期工作的成果。在纳金纳富饶的过铝S型花岗岩容矿岩石中,发现并确认了显示LCT伟晶岩型矿化的伟晶花岗岩带。此外,在岩石和岩石样品中都观察到了与LCT伟晶岩型矿化相一致的地球化学异常。这表明存在富含LCT的伟晶岩墙。根据上面提供的两个参考资料。

Exploring Future Prospects

探索未来前景

The recently completed (2022) Axiom Geophysics triaxial magnetic gradiometer survey interpretation has outlined potential lithological contacts, specifically of interpreted pegmatite dykes, within the Nakina Property. These interpreted geophysical features coincide with the locations of till samples anomalous in lithium. These coincident features represent high-priority targets for additional exploration, including detailed rock and till sampling, trenching and channel sampling where warranted, and advanced mineralogy studies, to further improve confidence in the Property's potential.

最近完成的(2022年)Axiom地球物理三轴磁梯度计测量解释勾勒出了Naina属性内潜在的岩性接触,特别是解释的伟晶岩墙。这些解释的地球物理特征与锂异常样品的位置相吻合。这些一致的特征代表了额外勘探的高优先级目标,包括详细的岩石和耕作采样、必要时的沟槽和水道采样以及先进的矿物学研究,以进一步提高对该物业潜力的信心。

Property Geology Unveiled

物业地质学揭开面纱

The Nakina Property is underlain by the Maytham-Queenston Lakes pegmatitic granite pluton, spanning 10 by 13 kilometres. The pluton comprises peraluminous, massive, and undeformed granites with abundant coarse muscovite, pink to lilac garnets, and small enclaves of metasedimentary rocks (Stott and Parker 1997):

纳金纳地产位于梅瑟姆-昆斯顿湖伟晶花岗岩岩体之下,跨度为10乘13公里。该岩体由过铝、块状和未变形的花岗岩组成,含有丰富的粗白云母、粉红色到淡紫色石榴石和小的变质沉积岩包体(斯托特和帕克1997):

"Geology and mineralization of the O'Sullivan Lake area, Onaman-Tashota greenstone belt, east Wabigoon Subprovince"

and Breaks et al. (2006; see reference above) who note that the distinctive characteristics of these fertile granites within the pluton include radiating fans of green plumose muscovite-quartz intergrowths, graphic blocky potassium feldspar and quartz, and localized graphic tourmaline-quartz and layers of aplitic garnet and green muscovite. These workers have remarked also that the Maytham-Queenston Lakes pluton bears a striking resemblance to fertile pegmatitic granites observed in the Allison Lake batholith (the largest fertile, peraluminous granite mass in northwestern Ontario) and in the LCT-hosting Onion Lake area. This resemblance hints at the possibility that the pluton serves as the parent body for hitherto undiscovered lithium- and rare metal-bearing pegmatite dykes. Breaks et al. (2006):

和Break等人的观点。(2006;见上文),他们指出,这些富饶的花岗岩在岩体中的显著特征包括辐射扇形的绿色羽状白云母-石英共生、图形块状钾长石和石英、局部图形电气石-石英和层状闪长石榴石和绿色白云母。这些工作人员还评论说,梅瑟姆-昆斯顿湖岩体与在艾利森湖基(安大略省西北部最大的肥沃、过铝花岗岩块)和LCT-Onion Lake地区观察到的肥沃伟晶花岗岩有惊人的相似之处。这种相似之处暗示着,该岩体可能是迄今未发现的含锂和稀有金属的伟晶岩脉的母体。Breakes等人。(2006):

Geological Setting of The Property

该物业的地质背景

The Nakina Property lies within the English River Terrane, a metasediment-dominated region recognized as an accretionary complex or fore-arc basin. This geological landscape underwent significant deformation during a prolonged transpressive orogeny, located between the metavolcanic-rich Uchi sub-province and the orthogneiss-and-metaplutonic-dominated Winnipeg River (Wabigoon) sub-province. Two distinct types of granites are present: fertile peraluminous pegmatitic granite, predominantly located along the Wabigoon-English River sub-province boundary, and barren granite found within migmatites and tonalite to the north of the fertile granites.

纳金纳的财产位于英格兰河地体区内,这是一个以变质沉积为主的地区,被认为是一个增生杂岩或弧前盆地。这一地质景观在漫长的海退造山过程中发生了显著的变形,位于富含变质火山岩的乌奇亚省和以正麻岩和变深成岩为主的温尼伯河(瓦比贡)亚省之间。目前存在两种不同类型的花岗岩:可育过铝伟晶花岗岩,主要位于瓦比贡-英吉利河副省边界,以及在可育花岗岩以北的混合岩和英云闪长岩中发现的贫瘠花岗岩。
