Regional Geology:

Syine Township is underlain by Archean age Hemlo-Schreiber greenstone belt rocks in the Wawa sub-province. The greenstone belt rocks include Keewatin mafic volcanic rocks which were intruded by Algoman syenodiorite to granodiorite masses. During the intrusion the mafic metavolcanics were highly fractured. The most prominent fractures lie in a NE direction. Syenite and granodiorite dykes were injected into these fractures as quartz veins, lamprophyre and +/- porphyry. These dykes range from centimetre – meter in scale. Dykes and quartz veins are generally steeply dipping o the northwest but some are found to dip 20 degrees to northwest.
 
Local Geology:

The oldest rocks are mafic metavolcanics consisting of various iron-rich tholeiitic basalts. These rocks are folded along a synclinal axis plunging to the east. The Terrace Bay Batholith has intruded into the area to the west; there is an increase in mafic minerals at the contacts.

Jackfish Lake property ties on to Jon’s Showing (historical assays of 11 g/t gold and 968 g/t silver).

This showing lies 200m southeast of Zone 1. Outcrop contains silicified stringers within pyritemafic enriched assimilated-metamorphosed granodiorite. A 1.0 m section was well mineralized with fine cubic pyrite and assayed 2 g/t gold. Numerous flat lying quartz veins occur in the amphibolites schist zone at the contact of the grandiorite intrusive to the northwest and the mafic metavolcanics to the southeast. The veins in this area have not been thoroughly tested. At 180m southwest of the shear zone is a carbonate-rich shear zone within siliceous rich fractures.
