Location and
Access
The Grease River project of 15
claims is located 50 kilometres north west of the community of Black
Lake. Access is by air, year round, and by winter roads. The project
covers 70,084 ha in three non contiguous claim blocks that extend from
Bulyea River, north of Fond du Lac, to Marytnuik Lake, north of Stony
Rapids, and covers four geological domains.
Geology
The project area covers the heavily
metamorphosed Archean gneisses, of the Train and Tanato domains in
northern Saskatchewan. These are composed of orthogneisses, and
paragneisses with minor intrusions and minor pelites and psammites.
Along the eastern edge of the project area, is the Grease |River fault
zone a major crustal break, and there are numerous minor structures.
Past Exploration and Development
During the late 1960's and late 1970's extensive regional prospecting
and airborne geophysical work was carried out by the Canadian government
on the project area. A very strong halo of uranium mineralization is
evident from lake sediment surveys, and very high uranium - thorium
background is recognized along the contacts of major structural zones.
