Q Property


Location


Compilation

 

 

The Q Property lies south of the Cottonwood Provincial Forest on the east bank of the Quesnel River approximately 20 kilometres southeast of Quesnel. The property consists of 9 mineral claims with a total area of 4,057 hectares.

The earliest recorded work on the property is from 1964. Most of the historical exploration occurred to the northeast of the property. Previous exploration concentrated on delineating economical epithermal gold mineralization similar to the QR deposit, characterized by high chargeability/high resistivity IP results. Drilling (45 holes) encountered skarns and narrow quartz vein-hosted gold (low grade) mineralization hosted in hornfels, basalts and felsic dykes. A 1985 soil geochemical survey was completed on the western portion of the property.

About 70% of the claim group is covered by glacial tills and fluvial gravels. The easternmost portion of the property is underlain by a northwest trending belt of volcanic and volcanoclastics rocks of the Nicola Group. Several small early Jurassic-aged stocks intrude the Nicola Group rocks.

In 2007 an airborne magnetics survey was completed over the property. Two targets (East and West) were defined, typified by successive anomalous magnetic highs trending northwest - southeast through the property. In 2008 IP lines tested each of the targets defined by the airborne magnetics. Follow-up MMI testing was completed along IP lines in the vicinity of any anomalies.

West Target: The strongest magnetic high is situated to the west of the property parallel to the Quesnel River. The 2008 geophysical IP line delineating a weak to moderate chargeability anomaly associated with lower resistivities. MMI sampling produced a very high correlation between gold and copper with high correlations between copper, gold, and lead.

In 1985 a soil geochemical survey was completed with coincident copper and gold anomalies occurring to the northwest of the grid sloping to the river, to the southwest of the grid along a creek channel, and weakly to the southeast coincident with the 2007 airborne magnetics high and the 2008 IP chargeability high. This area is geologically mapped as a granitic intrusive body.

East Target: The eastern portion of the property has had a great deal of exploration completed in the past with most of the activities on the adjacent ground. Exploration concentrated on delineating economical epithermal gold mineralization similar to the QR deposit.

Of historic significance is a weak chargeability anomaly that appears to be untested by drilling. This historic IP anomaly, located on the northern flank of a northwesterly trending magnetic high, correlates with a high chargeability/resistivity anomaly delineated by the 2008 IP survey. Coincident MMI sampling produced a moderate copper-gold correlation.
