TELEPHONE : 5 9 6-133 1 J. F. MCINTYRE, P.ENG. CONSULTING MINING ENGINEER 6466 CABELDU CRESCENT DELTA, B.C. CANADA 1. INTRODUCTION The Cap claim, covering the El Capitan gold property, is located in the Victoria Mining Division on the divide between the Cowichan River and the Chemainus River, some eight kilometers north of the town of Youbou on Vancouver Island (Figure 1). Access is by trail from the Cottonwood Creek road or by helicopter. The owner and operator of the property is Trans Pacific Ventures Ltd. of Vancouver B.C. They hold one claim, totalling 2 units (Figure 2). This covers a gold, silver, copperbearing, oxidized shear zone which was explored by three drifts during the period 1925-1935. Property history is detailed by J.T. Fyles (1955, Reference 1). In view of currently high precious metal prices, many smaller deposits which were overlooked in the past may now provide sufficient return to make operations practical. Assays recorded in the early reports on the El Capitan property indicated that it fell into this category. Field work was done during the period September 22-27, 1979 by B. McClay, R.F. McIntyre and D. Meltzer in consultation with J.F. McIntyre, P.Eng. It included 75m of cut baseline, 2,84m of V.L.F. - E.M. survey line, confirmation of the geology as reported by Fyles (1955) and sampling of the ore body by B. McClay in an old drift. Subsequent work included the interpretation of the E.M. data by R.F. McIntyre and assaying of the samples by General Testing Laboratories of Vancouver, B.C.

J. F. MclNTYRE, P.ENG. 2. PROPERTY WORK To establish control for the E.M. baselines was cut (Figure 4) totalling 75m, survey, a system of The existing underground workings were examined and the #1 Drift samples by B. McClay. These workings have deteriorated substantially in the last 5 years, The timbering is rotten and small cave-ins are numerous in Drifts #1 and #3. Drift #2 was driven, initially, through 2 feet of talus, which has since sloughed in and buried the portal completely. Drift #3 was driven parallel to the shear and reported mineralization only in two crosscuts (later backfilled) hence could not be sampled. Samples 841-844 were taken along the #1 Drift on roughly 3m spacings. Samples 845 and 846 were taken on two branches of the shear exposed at the face, Samples 839 and 84 were taken across a newly found mineralized body, a quartzchalcopyrite vein located southwest of the oxidized shear zone, Sample details, assays and averages are given in Table 1, The assays were weighted for width and the following averages calculated: Gold, 4.121 oz/ton; silver, 1.294 oz/ton; copper, 2.16%; over an average width of 63cm.

J. F. MclNTYRE, P.ENG. 4. GEOLOGY A map prepared by Fyles (1955) is included for reference (Figure 3). Local geology was examined briefly by R.F. McIntyre and found to accurately conform to Fyles' map. The geology is summarized below. The host rock is a massive andesite containing numerous small plagioclase phenocrysts. It is cut by a nearly vertical dyke, 3m wide, of andesitic horneblende porphyry, striking approximately 8. The mineralized zone is a Pm wide shear along the south wall of the dyke, showing copper and iron oxidation products and containing significant amounts of gold, silver and copper. Shearing is also noted in places along the north wall of the dyke.. A previously unknown mineralized body was discovered at grid location 7m W - 3m S. It is an unsheared quartzchalcopyrite vein striking 155O/45OE, exposed for about four meters along strike. It tapers from 15-4 cm wide, widening where it disappears into overburden. All andesites observed were essentially massive, so no specific interpretation of the structure has been made. Two additional points were noted that did not appear in Reference 1. Firstly, the general attitudes of small scale faults are predominantly in the range 16-18Oo/75OW, with most faults nearly vertical. Secondly, white quartz veins 5-2cm wide were seen, in places, sub-parallel to the fault set noted above. These veins were not sampled.

r" t J. F. MclNTYRE, P.ENG. 5. GEOPHYSICS A V.L.F. - E.M. survey was conducted by R.F. McIntyre over the known length of the mineralized shear, and its projected extensions to the east and west, to try to locate the ore body in areas covered with overburden, The survey was done with a Geonics EM-16 unit using the manufacturers' recommended procedures. The Seattle V.L.F. station was used. Its bearing from the property was lloo true and all cross lines were run perpendicular to this, on a bearing 2 true. These lines were spaced 3m apart along the baselines, and readings were taken every 15m. All readings were taken facing 2, The raw data was transformed using two separate methods, in an effort to reduce the obvious distortion due to topographic effects, and "electomagnetic noise". The first method is the "First Derivative Method" presented by A.B. Whittles; (1969, Reference 2). The second method is know as "Frazer Filtering" as presented by DOC, Frazer (1969, Reference 3). All data, including the results of these two filtering methods, are presented in Table 2, Frazer-filtered results are contoured in Figure 4). Examination of the data shows that V.L.F. - E.M. is apparently not a useful exploration tool for this property, The stations taken over known occurrences of the mineralized shear show no anomalies, hence no projections can be made to other areas. It must be concluded that the shear is not a detectable conductor, so no further V.L.F. - E.M. surveys are recommended. A partial anomaly is located at the extreme northwest edge of the grid, at some distance from the known shear and

L J. F. MclNTYRE, P.ENG. 6. not along strike. It is unlikely that this anomaly is related to the shear. It may be due to an extreme topographic effect, or to magnetite or some other trace mineral interfering with the local magnetic field. The E.M. grid cannot be extended northward due to unscaleable cliffs. Surface prospecting of the area is suggested, below the cliffs.

J, F. MclNTYRE, P.ENG. 17. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS The V.L.F. - E.M. survey did not provide useful data for investigating the extent of the gold-bearing shear, beyond its known boundaries. It did indicate a partial, lowintensity anomaly on the northwest edge of the grid that should be prospected to identify any mineralization which could be the cause. A quartz-chalcopyrite vein was found by prospecting south of the shear zones. It appears to be younger than the shear, and opens up the possibility of other similar veins in the surrounding area. This vein should be trenched on its lower end to try to determine maximum width. Further prospecting should be carried out. Sampling of the #l Drift revealed assays ranging from.2 to 13.6 oz/ton of gold, averaging 4.1 oz/ton. Fyles (1955) reported assays from the same drift in the range -1 to -92 oz/ton, averaging about.3 oz/ton gold. No attempt has been made by the authors to reconcile this disparity. In any event, further work is indicated in the form of bulk sampling, diamond drilling and/or refurbishing and extending the underground workings. Respectfully submi t ted, R.F. McIntyre, B.Sc.
