| Abstract: | The Golden Drake Mining Syndicate is prospecting, by means
of an adit, a four feet wide, north dipping, fracture zone which
strikes 260° to 270° through volcanics of Permian Age. The
fracture zone trends towards, but does not seem continuous with,
the reef system of the old Lady Jersey Mine.
Zinc, iron and copper sulphides occur as discontinuous
lenticular pods and stringers along the fracture zone. Gold
values are intimately associated with the sulphides, but to date,
in the adit The following petrological determinations refer to a suite of specimens from the Golden Drake Prospect, Drake, submitted by D. R. Kennedy |
