Technical DataOverviewElevated uranium levels appear in what is known as the Turgeon Lake Intrusive Complex. Within this complex, the Turgeon and WeeGee Claim Blocks host a significant number of uranium occurrences identified in the course of the first staking rush in the mid 1960s. Values are in the 0.01% to 0.025% U3O8 range, but can be locally higher. The mineralization tends to be lens-like, with the scale of these lenses ranges from a few meters to at least 1,000 meters long by 300 meters wide. Regional geochemical surveys by the Quebec government in the 1980's and 1990's showed that the Turgeon Lake Intrusive Complex, unlike other intrusive bodies in the region is highly anomalous in uranium. Large fault systems cut the intrusive, but little attention was paid to these in previous exploration efforts, even though uranium mineralization is frequently associated with such features. Their presence suggests the possible existence of major plumbing systems operational during the mineralization phase. Interpretive work on the Turgeon Lake Intrusive body has outlined at least 7 distinct phases of intrusions, which confirms the dynamic nature of the intrusive body and the potential for multiple phases of mineralization and remobilization and concentration of uranium within the intrusive complex. The remaining claim groups forming the North Shore Property (Pontbriand, Highway and NE Costabelle Claim Groups) lie within this corridor, and cover the major anomalies over 125 kilometers long. Little historic work of any kind has been reported from these areas which exhibit uranium geochemical values similar or better than those seen in the Lac Turgeon intrusive itself.
