Summary
On a regional scale the Heenan and Mallard properties are located within the Swayze greenstone belt, part of the western Abitibi Subprovince. The Swayze greenstone belt is bound o the north by the Nat River granitoid complex, to the west by the Kapuskasing Structural Zone, the south by the Ramsey-Algoma granitoid complex, and the east by the Kenogamissi granitoid complex. Volcanic and sedimentary rocks range in age from 2731 to 2690 Ma, whereas the intrusive rocks range in age from 2740 to 2660 Ma. The volcanic and sedimentary rocks form an upward-facing, upward-yuonging stratigraphic sequence that is complexly folded and faulted (Heather et al, 1996).
Location and Access
The Heenan and Mallard properties are located in Heenan, Benton, and Mallard townships approximately 110 km southwest of Timmins and 170 km northwest of Sudbury. The properties can be accessed by truck and ATV through the Mallard and Sultan industrial roads that intersect Highway 144.
