A copper-zinc mine located 200 km East of Thunder Bay near Manitouwadge. Ore is an Archean Cu-Zn massive sulfide deposit. Mine is at least to the 2,850 level.
This volcano-sedimentary deposit has been affected by an amphibolite facies metamorphism (T=650 °C, P=6 kb) resulting in the formation of rocks such as gedrite-cordierite gneisses (cf. Petersen, 1984).
