2·45366 ASSESSMENT REPORT; CLAIM .... 1199037
Davis Township Sudbury Mining Division .. (year-2010)
A Hydro-Thermal Quartz Deposit extending some 360 metres East to West. Pictured below the elevated east end of the vein.
Until this past year .. (2009) this "pond" was an almost dry marsh. A narrow beaver dam now blocks off the exit at the northern end of the gulley, thus allowing the dry marsh to be completely flooded. This dam can be easily removed without any damage to roads or private property as a large rive r runs just beyond t he dam about 100 feet. Assessment work completed on April 22 nd - 2010. Work completed by Dave Hanes .. (Wolverine Exploration), .. and Marlene Carr, ....Joint holders of this active Mini ng cla im.

Assessment Work; ..... April 22---2010
Driving east on Hwy. 17 to the Kukagami Lk. Road we proceeded northerly to the Trans Canada Trail. This is a distance of some 44 kms.
At this point the ATV was unloaded and gear packed onto ATV.
From this junction we drove east to the cutoff at Crerar, (approx. 5.2 miles) ... and drove another 2 miles through a very badly deteriorating bush and "corduroy" trail. (see photos) An old unused trail winds through the bush and we drove on this then into the bush till within 100 feet of the western most Silica exposure. Here we unpacked the gear necessary to drill and break out fresh below surface samples of Hydro-thermal Quartz. Total time from Sudbury to Si02 exposure ..... 8AM till 9.30AM ... 1 ~ hours This is the third time I have used the "Micro Blaster, for securing fresh samples for assay. As indicated in the photos the exposure at the west end the exposure is glaciated smooth and next to impossible to break out a meaningful sample. It is my intention to "break out" samples across the face of this exposure. As each hole is similar in nature of material drilled there is no need to describe each drill and blast. Each hole is drilled to a depth of 12"...the length of "usable" drill bit. Care must be taken to not overheat the bits or the tips of the bits will disintegrate, ..or they will "twist off" and the drill bit useless and hole has to be redrilled. The best way is to drill slowly and pull out "silica dust" frequently. After several inches of drilling it is also beneficial to remove the drill bit and insert another bit and allow the old one to cool. Through experience we have learned to be patient as the rechargeable batteries will drill 5 or 6 holes maximum. I always carry two fully charged batteries on each trip, •. allowing for about 10 holes and a full days work. Any drill problems cuts down on the total amount of production, .. and drill bits ..•cartridges, .... and air cylinders all cost money. Following proper procedures and safety precautions each hole takes "approximately" % to 1 hour to

drill, •• dean the hole, .. set up explosive cartridge, ••• fire the charge and then collect samples for assay. A note here; We have used the Micro Blaster on 3 different exposures, •.. A large Quartzite mass in South Lorrain Twp •.•• A Hydro Thermal Quartz Vein also in south Lorrain and this present exposure of Hydro Thermal Quartz in a single vein in Davis Twp .• All 3 of these exposures have been very consistent in Si02 content. When drilling on Quartz for the purpose of defining High Purity Si02, ...then one needs to pay special attention to the residual material being "expelled" via the drill bit back to surface. Colour MUST BE CONSISTENT. If drilling Lorrain Formation Quartzite, ..••the colour will most likely be an "off greY', .•• consistent in granular structure, •. but not "pure white". Colour of drill residue in Hydro thermal Quartz veins has been "white", ... compact. Surface and near surface sampling (when possible) has been difficult and there are numerous tiny dirt filled fractures. This is the purpose of using the Micro Blaster, ...to "reach" below surface for clean fracture free Quartz. When drilling "along strike" and away from any contact with the surrounding country rock the Quartz is drilled with ease and sampling consistent. However, if drilling along the edges of the strike along the vein, you may encounter a distinct change in colour, ... and hardness of the residue brought up by the drill bit. At this point you may decide to finish the hole and " open" it up to ascertain inside material for impurities, •.. or possibly something else that needs further examination .••. Never rule out the possibility of encountering "carbonates" •• (in this area) .• that may contain precious metals and base metals. This exposure had 4 holes drilled and blasted, ... 3 of them using one explosive charge" ... the final hole set back some distance from the edge of the exposure was charged with two cartridges.
4 holes drilled ..•• 5 cartridges used. No misfires •.• no broken or damaged .drill bits. Enough quartz collected to allow for an Si02 Analysis ..•.. Total time spent on this exposure Four (4) hours.

Dave using Micro Blaster on westerly Hydro Thermal Quartz vein. Note angle of drill and proximity t o large "fracture". There must be an "escape" for the built up pressure to crack t he rock and create separation between the Blaster tube and bedrock. Without the ability to "push" the bedrock away from the blast tube, ..the detonation will only result in the Micro Blaster unit flying skyward with little or no fractured or broken Quartz. The GPS co-ordinates for this exposure are;

Successful blast; .... broken material contained within a small area. One charge was used in t his hole. Loose Quartz on ground is fro m previous blast th at was not "captured" with the ca mera. All holes on t his exposure were drilled to 12 inches. Broken material is gathered and placed in a pile fro m which samples for Analysis are collected and bagged. This exposure is one of several as previously described in Assessment Reports by the author. For larger sampling along this vein it would depend on consistency of Analysis along t he length of t he vein .. (approx 360 metres}. Should results fro m th is Assessm ent prove favorable then some mechanical stripping and power washing would be put into play.

Joint Claim holder Marlene Ca rr holding samples of Hydro Thermal Quartz from freshly blasted material. Fresh samples are consistently white in colour and uniform without "inner fracturing" that could contain impurities. At this point 3 of the 4 holes had been completed. Th e final hole wa s about 2 metres to the east ..{left) and was larger than the others, ...therefore 2 charges where inserted into the drill hole to ensure "breakage" of the rock.

As can be seen in this photo, t he use of 2 cartridges in this final hole at the west end of th e vein definitely produced a bigger " explosion" and more "fly rock", ...fortunately the small group of trees directly in fro nt of the blast prevented the broken rock from flying into the swamp. To prevent "loss of samples" one can place a small mat over the Micro Blaster and weight down t he edges with rock . In this photo we observe not only rock flying but, ... the Micro Blaster unit itself. It ca n not be emphasized enough, .. .follow safety precaut ions!!!! !!! Quartz is simply impure "glass" and is razor sharp. To be hit by a flying piece of this Hydro Thermal Quartz could cause serious injury and if you are in a remote area ,... help could be a long t ime arriving. This particular area has no cell phone coverage so w e try to be as careful as possible. After this last blast we sorted samples and packed them. We ate some lunch-then packed up and returned to the ATV and drove out of the bush to the main road and past the beaver pond. Normally we would have walked from the first site and crossed a beaver P.6

dam ... but it is now under about 5 feet of water. So we parked off the road and walked to the high exposure, .. actually the most prominent exposure on this vein. (This takes about 10 minutes.) It is some 20 feet above water level, .. with large blocks of Quartz lying around the base, .. as well as in the water. From observing the base of this exposure it appears the exposure descends well below the level of the ground on either side of the vein, and from here strikes westerly to the far end of the vein that we have just left. We examined the exposed Quartz along what vein material seeking an area free from myriads of small fractures caused by glaciations and stress as the force of encroaching ice crushed and grated its way across this mound of Quartz .. lt would be hard to fathom how high this exposure was before glaciations ... but the power of the ice is quite evident. For me this leading edge was not suitable for sampling as the fractures were simply to numerous and most likely these fractures would be full of "impurities' The other thought is that with so many fractures we run the risk of binding, ..jamming .. or twisting off the drill bits. About 15 metres east of the front edge of the exposure along the south flank we cleared away dirt and moss to open up an area that was mainly clear for fractures and consistent in colour and density.

Without extensive stripping we have no way of knowing the true width or angle that the vein dips to the south. As it turned out I drilled a hole on a slight angle southward and at about 10 inches, ... the drill residue suddenly turned brownish orange. It was also quite soft. Rather than "waste a hole" and moving farther away from the edge, .. l"improvised". I cleaned the hole with brush and blower, ... then place 2 small broken fragments of quartz onto the top of the bore hole and tapped them till they descended to the bottom of the hole. I took the tamping rod and set it onto the
fragm~nts
in the
bottom of the hole and then tapped the rod with my rock hammer till I heard the distinct sound of rock at the bottom of the hole and emplaced solidly. I use round wood dowels for measuring hole depths and distances of charges from top of hole .... to ensure the charge is in "hard contact" with the bottom of the hole. Next I inserted 2 charges into the hole and tapped them into place with the Micro Blaster unit. The tube makes contact with the outer rim of the cartridge. The firing pin must always be "in the tube"

and not exposed as to cause an accidental discharge. Now the air hose is taken a safe distance away .. (25 ft.) and the triggering mechanism is checked so as to be in the "safe" position. I stand off to the side and begin the "count down" ...... .3 ... 2... 1..."fire". When I reach"l" I press the shutter release on the camera and hope to capture the discharge and rock "lifting off'. About the only way to be 100% certain of capturing the ""action" is to set the digital camera to "burst" which shoots 5 images in sequence. After the discharge we examine the pieces of broken material..This particular hole gave us some good samples of white quartz as well as some contact rock that may contain small amounts of Gold and base metals. At the eastern end ofthis vein is a small pit...or shaft. It was opened up some years ago on the eastern end of the quartz vein in search for Gold on the Carbonate material contacting the Quartz vein. I have found no report of the findings so we will submit our own samples from our \
blast hole .... We collected and bagged samples of Quartz and several pieces of the Carbonate rock for Analysis and Assay. This has been a successful day and now we pack up and go back to the ATV ... then return along that nasty piece of trail through the swamps and corduroy road .... then to the van .... We arrived back in Sudbury by 6.15 PM. On Friday May 7 th I submitted 2 samples to the lab. In Sudbury. One for WRA .. +Si02 .... the other for Gold .. + Cu. +++ Ni.

Geology and ground cover
For the most part tree cover is mainly a mix of spruce, .. pines (red and some white), a few hardwoods and birch. At this time it appears most of the poplars have been "taken down" by local beavers for building dams and food. Much of the spruce and pine are about 10 to 12 inches in diameter. A few cedar occupy low lying areas adjacent to the wet and swampy areas. Rock outcrops are mainly Diabase and Quartz. Along the main road there are zones of layered material but I am uncertain of the exact type. They are in a road cut that was bulldozed some years ago and lie within an area of carbonates. These carbonates contain minor amounts of Sulphides. Carbonate was also encountered at the east end of the Quartz vein and a sample collected for Assay. Overburden is coarse and is often just a covering of the vein with moss growth over top of the topsoil and vein.. Other places have quite deep overburden and hinder removal for examining the actual vein. Roots permeate the soils and only mechanical removal would allow for closer more in depth examination of the Quartz vein or other rock types of interest. Other vegetation consists of tag alders and low lying shrubs. There is one prominent body of water and that is the "dry marsh" which is now flooded. One small area of wet ground is shown on the sketch map in front of and running east west past our first exposure we worked on. Several other exposures of Quartz lie in an almost direct east - west strike from the west end to the east end just before the beaver pond. At this time no work was completed today on any except the two noted within this report. It is my opinion that future exploration on this Quartz vein will depend on Analysis Results of the Quartz Vein and the availability of funds to bring in a small excavator to remove overburden to determine more accurately the width of this vein .....
