8 ----------------------------------- The broad zone of strong argillic alteration with associated quartz veinlet stockworks, silicification and pyritization within which the GAMA and LAMA prospects occur, has been mapped over an area of 700 x 500 m and remains open in several directions.
Hydrothermal alteration zones, quartz-pegmatite veins and veinlets and dykes of sub-volcanic origins with intensive silicification, pyritization, and chloritization occur around the granodiorite stock body.
