DUVANCu Ag SHEARQUEBEC
Geology: 
Abitibi region greenstone belt; roughly northwest trending ultramafic flows, mafic to felsic volcanics with coeval intrusions, volcanoclastic sedimentary rocks and several large intrusive batholiths. Metamorphic grade low-to medium greenschist facies.
Mineralized shear structure contained within a locally NNW trending belt of highly metamorphosed (amphibolite facies) Precambrian metavolcanics and metasediments (Kinojevis Group) situated between the La Reine granitic batholith to the west and a satellite granitic body to the east.
Mineralization:
Work:
late 1920's: earliest work on and ajacent to property was trenching and 3,000 feet (914 meters) diamond drilling (Rex Mining Ltd.)
1952:  drilled 11 shallow holes totaling 2,050 feet (625 meters)(Des Meloizes Mining Corp)
1954:  14 holes totaling 4,134 feet (1260 meters).(Normetal Mining Corp) 1954 & 56:  22 drill holes totaling 16,101 feet (4907 meters); completed 205 m shaft (Duvan Copper Co)
1975-1978:  geological mapping,IP and magnetic surveys, one test hole was drilled (New Insco Mines Ltd & Great Plains Resources Ltd.)

Property Details & Access:
2 non-contiguous surveyed mineral claims, 91 ha
via all-season gravel road and provincial Highway 111
Detail Location:
Des Meloizes Township, Noranda-Normetal MD, Abitibi region, Quebec. 7 km east of the Quebec-Ontario boundary. NTS map sheet 32D14.
Other Comments: 
Testing along Duvan structure has not been extensive at depth and it remains as an attractive exploration locus.
Duvan mineralized structure strikes ~N 25o and dips ~75o towards 'and under' South Claim. Atleast 800 m strike length of the Duvan structure at depths below ~400 m on South Claim; Except for 4 diamond drill holes at the north end of the South Claim, these depths remain entirely untested by drilling.South Claim of property located 250 m W of Duvan Mine Shaft.
Duvan deposit ~102,584 tonnes sulphide ore grading 2.5% Cu and 100.8 g/T Ag above 950 foot level (1957). Ore mineralization = pyrite, pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite, sphalerite, bornite, magnetite.
