The McClean project includes the deposits of the Sue Trend, and the JEB, Caribou and McClean Lake sandstone hosted deposits. The "Sue Trend" represents an arcuate graphitic gneiss which flanks various granitic domes, and one of these domes is associated with virtually all of the mineralization at the property. Depths to basement are relatively shallow, rarely exceeding 175 metres, which is well within the range of open pit mining methods. The Sue Trend is host to five deposits, including Sue A, Sue C, Sue E and Sue B which have been mined. The Sue E deposit is geologically similar to the Sue C deposit, in that it is basement hosted and contains an order of magnitude more pounds than the nearby unconformity hosted deposits (Sue A, B and D).
Work in 2008 tested the Tent-Seal trend, where basement mineralization was discovered during three previous drill campaigns. The Tent-Seal is a relatively long conductor which has not been thoroughly drill tested and exhibits good alteration. While no economic intersections were made this year, the continuity of this mineralization was confirmed, and infill drilling is proposed. Several drill holes will also test untested areas proximal to the McClean North and South deposits. The corridor between the Caribou and McClean North/South deposits is also untested and is still presently targeted for drilling.
