9. 3. SUMMARY
This report documents an initial investigation of the geology, mineralogy, petrochemistry and
economic geology of the Mount Bisson claim-group, which comprises 12 contiguous claims (area of
3862.56 hectares) situated 65 km northwest of Mackenzie, B.C. The property is currently the subject of
a joint-venture agreement in which Seymour Ventures Corporation may acquire a 60% ownership from
Paget Minerals Corporation upon fullfillment of terms in this agreement. Thus, this report is submitted
to the TSX-V exchange as part of an acquistion transaction. All geological, geochemical and
geophysical work was undertaken by the vendor Paget Minerals Corporation. Under Section 6.2 (2) of
NI 43-101, the property is classified as an “early stage exploration property”. Seasonal weather
conditions (snow cover) prevented the author from accessing the property and obtaining surface
samples, particularly from the Central Occurrence, at the time of the request from the issuer. The issuer
intends to rectify the necessity for a site inspection by the author during the 2011 field season.
Focus of the present work was upon rare-earth element mineralization developed in granitic pegmatites
and associated metasomatic alteration that comprises the Wolverine pegmatite field of Černý (2005).
The purpose of this investigation is to examine accessible rare-earth element mineralization of the
Mount Bisson claim-group and to undertake a bedrock chemical and mineralogical data-base that will
facilitate exploration for rare-earth elements in the area.
The rare-earth granitic pegmatites of the area belong to the NYF-geochemical family (Niobium-
Yttrium-Fluorine) that have been classified by Černý (2005) and Ercit (2005) as Abyssal class, AB-
LREE subclass. The rare-earth element mineralization of the 3 by 9 km Wolverine pegmatite field, as
named by Černý (2005), comprises granitic pegmatites and metasomatized host-rocks of the Wolverine
gneisses that form a high grade metamorphic portion of the Upper Proterozoic Ingenika group in the
Omineca crystalline complex (Mansy and Gabrielse 1978) and is known as the Wolverine
metamorphic complex (Ferri and Melville 1994).
Granitic pegmatites of the abyssal class occur in upper amphibolite to granulite facies metamorphic
terrain and supposedly bear a connection to anatectic leucosome (Černý 2005). Examples in Canada
include the Parry Sound, Hybla and Madawaska districts of Ontario and the Evans-Lou and Lapointe
quarries in Quebec (Černý 2005).
The Wolverine gneisses consist of a mélange of clastic metasedimentary rocks interlayered with
carbonate-rich lithologies (marble, calc-silicate rocks) and mafic gneisses that have endured high grade
metamorphism, severe ductile deformation and local partial melting that occurred during the middle
Jurassic. The clastic metasedimentary rocks reveal localized partial melting in metawacke and
metapelite compositions that produced in situ and intrusive masses of S-type, peraluminous, pegmatitic
granites.
Later granitic rocks of the I-type, 72.6±0.2 Ma Wolverine intrusive suite crosscut the structural fabric
in the Wolverine gneisses and locally generated metasomatic skarn envelopes in calcareous
metasedimentary host-rocks as at the Ursa rare-earth element occurrence. The intrusive rocks exhibit a
compositional spectrum of granite, quartz monzonite, quartz diorite, diorite and calc-alkalic granitic
pegmatite.
The initial discovery of rare-earth element mineralization was made by Halleran (1987a, b, c and 1991)
and was evaluated by detailed mapping, petrography, litho- and mineral chemical work. Total rare-
element element content of bulk rock samples was found to range from 0.03 to 13.5 wt.% (Halleran
(1991 and Table 1) with the highest levels found at the Laura No.1 and No.2 occurrences on Mount
Bisson.
9

10. Five rare-earth element mineralized localities (Laura, Ursa, Will # 1 and 2 and the M12000 Road
occurrences) were examined in this work that involve three distinct geological settings.
 Granitic to syenitic, I-type intrusive rocks and related pegmatite that are interlayered with
allanite-diopside-rich skarns, ostensibly controlled by the contact between the Wolverine
Range intrusive suite and highly deformed diorite gneiss and calc-silicate rocks of the
Wolverine gneiss unit (Laura rare-earth element occurrence)
 Peraluminous, S-type pegmatitic granite hosted in calc-silicate and psammitic-metapelitic
metasedimentary rocks of the Ingenika group (Ursa rare-earth element occurrence), and,
 Late, undeformed, calc-alkaline, quartz-rich pegmatites and associated diopside-rich alteration
in host diorite and quartz diorite (M-12000 Road rare-earth element occurrence).
The M12000 Road occurrence, discovered in 2007 by the author, originally was situated on claim
568837 of Paget Minerals Corporation within a contiguous 22 claim block at Mount Bisson and
dropped by the vendor prior to the Seymour Ventures transaction. This mineral occurrence now lies on
claim 842836 (claim name CLONE 4) that is 456.87 hectares in area and belongs to A.R. Schindel as
determined by a search at https://www.mtonline.gov.bc.ca/mtov/searchTenures.do
The author cautions that the rare-earth element mineralization at this occurrence is not necessarily
indicative of that found on the adjacent Mount Bisson claim-group. Description of the M12000 Road
occurrence can be found in Section 17: Adjacent Properties.
The Laura occurrence is genetically affiliated with relatively undeformed, I-type granitic rocks of the
Wolverine Range intrusive suite that are exposed proximal to the rare-earth element mineralized zone
near Mount Bisson. Localization of the mineralization (512 to 7429 ppm total REE) is evident in sheets
of allanite-bearing syenite and titanite-plagioclase-diopside skarn that are concordant to the flat-lying
planar deformation fabric in diorite and quartz diorite in the host Wolverine gneisses.
The Ursa occurrence, with a range of 54 to 667 ppm total REE, reveals field evidence for allanite
mineralization associated with weakly peraluminous, S-type, granitic magmatism. Such rocks were
plausibly generated by partial melting of a metapelite protolith, a common rock type in the Ingenika
group. The mineralization occurs in an allanite-titanite-biotite-bearing, zoned potassic pegmatite that
has undergone extensive ductile deformation and lies concordant to its amphibolite-calc-silicate-marble
host-rocks.
The mineralization consists of black allanite and orange titanite that is mainly confined to a narrow,
plagioclase-rich border zone (667 ppm total REE) attendant to a diopside-rich skarn selvedge in calc-
silicate host-rocks. The biotite potassic pegmatite core zone contains anomalous but a lower total REE
content (370 ppm).
The M-12000 Road rare-earth element occurrence, found during this work, consists of vein systems of
undeformed, quartz-rich, titanite-diopside calc-alkaline pegmatite (2 to 3 m width over minimum 5 m
strike) hosted within lineated, titanite-hornblende diorite and quartz diorite.
The mineralization at the M12000 Road occurrence consists of calc-silicate pods within diopside-rich
quartz-rich segregations. These pods contain between 871 and 1463 ppm total REE, and exhibit very
complex mineralogy characterized by Y-epidote, allanite, titanite, vesuvianite and scheelite associated
with bright green diopside. Bulk rock values of 871 to 1463 ppm total REE occur in such zones with a
10

11. notable content of 123 ppm total HREE and 174 ppm yttrium. These results indicate a potential for
heavy rare-earth element mineralization in the M-12000 pegmatite system.
The allanite subgroup [(Ca,Ce,Y)2 (Al,Fe3+)3Si3O12(OH)] of the epidote group is the main rare-earth
element mineral of economic interest although subordinate concentrations of the rare-earth elements
can occur in coexisting titanite, fluorapatite and epidote. Electron microprobe analyses of allanite from
rare-earth element occurrences near Mount Bisson reveal an average La2O3+Ce2O3+Pr2O3+Nd2O3 of
20.3 wt.% and low to modest contents of deleterious elements such as ThO2 and UO2.
The Central Occurrence was discovered by T. Barresi during 2010 field work and one grab sample
from a 15 cm wide, allanite-rich, melanocratic pod hosted in biotite-bearing quartzofeldspathic gneiss
produced a ∑REE value of 8.64 wt.% (Paget Minerals Corp. News-Release, August 25, 2010), the
second highest documented in the claim-block to date in a database that includes the historical
analyses (see Appendix 1).However, the author cautions that this site has not been examined by a
qualified person and will be subject of an investigation by the author, as requested by the issuer, in the
2011 field season. Under Section 6.2 (2) of NI 43-101, the property is classified as an “early stage
exploration property”. Seasonal weather conditions (snow cover) prevented the author from accessing
the property and obtaining surface samples at the time of the request from the issuer.
No general exploration concept can be employed as the granite-related, rare-earth element
mineralization occurs in three distinct lithologic associations, as outlined above. Rather, exploration
should focus upon the particular rare-earth element-granite association of interest and its inferred
genetic history.
Further exploration is highly recommended for the claim-group that includes follow-up evaluation of
Central occurrence and systematic sampling and mapping of the Laura No.1 and No.2 and Will No.1
and No.2 occurrences. Bulk rock chemistry and soil sampling that focuses upon pathfinder elements
Ba, Sr, Ce, Nb and Th could prove useful in the exploration for I-type related rare-earth element
mineralization exemplified by the Laura #1 occurrence.
4. INTRODUCTION AND TERMS OF REFERENCE
4.1 Introduction
Seymour Ventures Corporation is a public company existing under the laws of Canada and listed on
the TSX-Venture Exchange (TSX-V: SEY). The company currently has no mineral properties but is in
the process of property acquisition as reported in its November 17, 2010 press release and also by
Paget Minerals Corporation in its November 18, 2010 News-release.
The purpose of this technical report is to support a submission with the TSX-Venture exchange that
involves a 60/40 joint venture agreement respectively between Seymour Ventures Corporation (TSX-
V:SEY) [‘Seymour’] and Paget Minerals Corporation [‘Paget’] whereby Seymour may acquire a 60%
interest in Paget’s Mount Bisson and Xeno rare-earth element properties in B.C. The financial details
of this proposed joint venture are given in Section 6. The Xeno property in the Dease Lake area of
B.C. will not be discussed in this report and the author has not visited this property.
Paget Minerals Corporation is a public mineral exploration company that was incorporated in British
Columbia on May 4, 2005 and was listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (TSX-V: PGS) on August 24,
11

12. 2009. The company has a diverse portfolio of properties range from precious, base metals, and rare-
earth element deposits in British Columbia and in the Canadian Shield of eastern Canada.
4.2 Terms of Reference
Seymour Ventures Corporation requested that the author undertake an independent technical
assessment of the Mount Bisson rare-earth element property on November 25, 2010 and prepare a
report in compliance with the standards of the Canadian Securities Administrators’ National Instrument
43-101 (“NI 43-101”). Two periods of field investigation, which totalled 11 days, were undertaken by
the author in October 2007 and in July 2008. The scope of these investigations involved geological and
mineralogical examination and sampling of accessible outcrops over the claim-block and examination
and sampling of the historical rare-earth element occurrences (Ursa and Laura) along with a REE
occurrence. Two occurrences (Will #1 and 2) could not be located due to dense second growth forest
covering large areas in vicinity of the historical showings.
A third period of surface geological and geochemical work was undertaken from July 2 to 15, 2010 by
T. Barresi, a graduate student at Dalhousie University, and under the supervision of J. Bradford, P. Geo
of Paget Minerals Corp. This work was done independent of the author, although five reference grab
samples, analyzed by ALS Chemex Labs, were sent to the author in September 2010 for petrographic
examination. The results from one sample E922522 in this work are included in this report (see Central
Occurrence in Section 11.1.5).
The revision of this 43-101 report did not involve a field examination by the author of the 2010 surface
work conducted by Paget Minerals Corporation as seasonal weather conditions in the Mount Bisson
area rendered access impossible due to heavy snow cover. This is in accordance with Section 6.2 (2) of
NI 43-101 that classifies the property as early exploration stage. Under Section 6.2 (2) of NI 43-101,
the property is classified as an "early stage exploration property". Seasonal weather conditions (snow
cover) prevented the author from accessing the property and obtaining surface samples at the time of
the request from the issuer. The issuer will request that a site inspection be undertaken by the author as
soon as practicable during the 2011 field season and file a revised technical report in due course.
Major, minor and trace element analyses of 100 grab samples were undertaken by four certified,
commercial labs [Acme Analytical Laboratories Ltd. (“Acme”), ALS Chemex Laboratory Group
(“ALS Chemex”), Activation Laboratories (“Actlabs”) and the Ontario Geoscience Laboratory (“OGS
Labs”)]. These samples involved the Laura #1 and Pegmatite 541 in addition to the M-12000 REE
occurrence discovered during the author’s investigations. Verification of the mineral compositions at
these occurrences was undertaken by Dr. Andrew G. Tindle, a geoscientist at the Department of Earth
Sciences of The Open University, U.K., who has about 30 years experience in the mineralogy of rare-
metal mineralization. Verification of the mineralogical species present and their compositions was
undertaken with a Cameca SX-100 electron microprobe. Mineral identification was also undertaken at
the Geoscience Labs of the Ontario Geological Survey.
The author is independent of the Issuer Seymour Ventures Corporation and also independent of Paget
Minerals Corp and Pembrook Mining and has no material interest in these firms or in any of their
mineral properties. To the author's knowledge, there has been no material change to the Mount Bisson
property in terms of follow-up exploration. Previously a change in ownership had been undertaken as
detailed in Section 2 that involved Pembrook Mining Corporation and Paget Minerals Corporation.
The author is a practicing member in good standing with the Association of Professional Geoscientists
of Ontario (member #760).

The Mount Bisson property was examined for a total of 11 days via field work in 2007 and 2008. The
field work was planned by the author. A further 14 days of field work was undertaken from July 2 to
15, 2010, by T. Barresi, a Ph.D. candidate at Dalhousie University. Mr. Barresi was under the
supervision of J. Bradford, P. Geo. of Paget Minerals Corp. and was not supervised by the author.
The author assumes and relies upon the fact that all historical technical information, as listed in the
References section, is accurate and represents the best practices of industry standards at that time.
However, while a careful review of these data was undertaken, the author cannot guarantee their
accuracy.
The documentation of claim status was undertaken online at
https://www.mtonline.gov.bc.ca:443/mtov/home.do but not verified with the B.C. provincial
government as the author is not qualified to validate the legal ownership of the property and therefore
cannot take any legal responsibility on this issue.
The author is not aware of any surface rights issues or environmental liabilities associated with the
property. No past mining activity has occurred within the current property area. No exploration follow-
up work has occurred subsequent to the author’s last field examination in July of 2008.
The author is not aware of any existing technical data other than provided by the company or that
within the public domain. Material changes have occurred subsequent to the author’s field
examinations and the 2010 field examination undertaken by T. Barresi. The first material changed
involved a change of ownership and the shares involved may be subject to escrow restrictions imposed
by the TSX Venture Exchange (Paget News-release November 24, 2009).
13

14. The second material change involves an option agreement between Paget Minerals Corporation and
Seymour Ventures Corporation (TSX-V: SEY) as announced in the November 18, 2010 News-release
of Paget Minerals Corp.
6. PROPERTY DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION
The claim-group, which lies within the Omineca Mining District of north-central British Columbia, is
situated 65 km northwest of the town of Mackenzie in the Swanell Mountains of the Omenica Ranges.
The claim-group occurs within map-sheets 093N/9, 093O/5, and 093O/12 of the National Topographic
System (NTS).The centre of the property is approximately at 438 000 E/615 000N Universe
Transverse Mercator (UTM) coordinates in Zone 10, NAD83.
The property initially consisted of 22 contiguous claims that were staked on November 2, 2005 and
October 29, 2007 as verified at Mineral Tenures Online BC at
https://www.mtonline.gov.bc.ca:443/mtov/home.do
The writer assumes that the locations of the claim-posts and claim-lines were accomplished by GPS
devices with the claim-lines blazed and flagged but his could not be verified, although a standard
practice in the mineral industry.
The locations of all known mineral occurrences within the claim-block are presented in Figures 2 and
3b that comprise the Laura #1 Laura #2, Ursa, Will #1, Will #2 and Central rare-earth element
occurrences. GPS data in the Universal Transverse Mercator system (UTM) on all samples collected
can be found in Appendices 2, 4, and 5.
The Mount Bisson property is 100 % owned by Paget Minerals Corporation. However, an
announcement in a November 18, 2010 News-release by the company indicated that Seymour Ventures
Corp. can acquire a 60% interest in the Mount Bisson and Xeno properties by fullfilling terms of the
joint venture agreement as detailed below. The property currently consists of 12 claims situated in the
Omineca Mining Division northwest of the town of Mackenzie. Previously, Paget Minerals Corp.,
announced in a November 24, 2009 News-release of the acquisition of a 100% interest in 22 claims
from Pembrook Mining Corp. ("Pembrook") covering 9,096 hectares located in the Omineca Mining
Division, British Columbia, known as the Mt. Bisson Property. As consideration for the acquisition of
a 100% ownership of the Property, Paget has agreed to issue 1,875,000 common shares to Pembrook
within ten days of receiving TSX Venture Exchange approval to the letter agreement; these shares may
be subject to escrow restrictions imposed by the TSX Venture Exchange. This transfer of shares in
regards to the Paget Minerals Corp. - Pembrook Mining Corp. transaction has been effected (D.
Volkert, Paget Minerals Corp., personal communication, February 15, 2011). There are no royalties,
back-in rights, payments or other agreements and encumbrances to which the property is subject
between Seymour and Paget
In addition, the Property shall be subject to a 2% net smelter returns royalty (NSR) in favour of
Pembrook. Paget shall be entitled to purchase, at any time, one half of the NSR by paying Pembrook
the sum of $1,000,000.
The recent 60/40 joint venture agreement between Seymour and Paget was announced on November
18, 2010 in a Paget News-release: “Seymour will pay $62,500 and issue 100,000 common shares of
Seymour to Paget upon receipt of applicable regulatory approvals. An additional $62,500 will be
payable to Paget on the first, second and third anniversaries of the option, together with an additional
100,000, 150,000 and 200,000 common shares of Seymour, respectively.
Pursuant to the option agreement, Seymour will be required to fund a $1,050,000 work program over 3
14

15. years on the properties. Paget will retain a 100% interest in the properties until all of the above
payments, work programs and share issuances are completed. In the event that Seymour exercises the
option, a 60/40 joint venture is deemed to be created to further develop the properties, with each party
contributing to their pro-rata portion of approved exploration programs. If either party decides not to
contribute to the joint venture and is diluted down to a 10% interest, their interest will convert to a 2%
Net Smelter Royalty (NSR), 1% of which may be purchased at the other party's option for
$1,000,000.”

16. 7. ACCESSIBILITY, CLIMATE, LOCAL RESOURCES,
INFRASTRUCTURE AND PHYSIOGRAPHY
The Mount Bisson claim-group is situated in the Swannell Ranges of the Omineca Mountains
physiographic region (Holland 1976) in north-central B.C. (Figure 1) and adjacent to the southeastern
margins of the northern Rocky Mountain trench, the most striking physiographic feature of the region.
The elevations within the claim-group vary from about 1600 m at the summit of Mount Bisson to about
1000 m at the lowest elevations at Munro Creek.
The claim-group is situated 65 km northwest of the town of Mackenzie and peripheral parts of the
claim-group are readily accessible by a 120 km drive from via a network of generally well maintained,
gravel base logging roads that infiltrate the region, i.e., the Mackenzie, Manson River, Munro Camp
and Nation River forestry service roads.
The main service centre for the region is the town of Mackenzie with a population of 5,450 that is
located within the Rocky Mountain Trench at the southern end of Williston Lake, one of the largest
man-made reservoirs in North America. The town was named after the famous explorer Alexander
Mackenzie, who camped near the town site on his journey to the Pacific in 1793. The economy of the
town is mainly supported by two pulp and paper operations and by tourism.
The town of Mackenzie, at 701 m elevation, lies in the Northern and Central Plateaux and Mountains
climatic zone that is marked by a range in January temperatures of -7 to -14 C and July temperatures of
8 to 20 C. Summers are short, generally cool with little precipitation.
The claim-group lies in the Subalpine Forest vegetation region in which the characteristic dominant
species are Englemann spruce (Picea engelmannii), Alpine fir (Picea alpestris) and Lodgepole pine
(Pinus contorta).
The Ursa and M-12000 Road occurrences are readily accessible by logging roads. Access to the Laura
#1 and #2 occurrences is not possible by road, however, a recent logging road that branches off the
Munro Creek Road at UTM 438177E/6150313N (Zone 10) provides access within 2 km of these
occurrences. Access to the Central occurrence can be gained by a 1 km traverse northeast from a recent
logging road that ends on claim 522753 (Figure 3b). Helicopter service is available at Mackenzie and
affords the best means of access to the higher elevations as around Mount Bisson that include the
Laura occurrences.
The nearest source of hydro-electric power is situated 120 km via road at Mackenzie. Power needed to
support a mining project would thus require alternative energy sources such as diesel powered
generators.
The claim-block is quite hilly with a maximum relief of 600 m and thus only a few areas could support
a mining operation such in the nearby Munro Creek Valley adjacent to Munro Camp. This area could
also be utililized as a site for infrastructure for extraction of ore minerals and as a despository for
tailings. A relatively flat ridge lies in the immediate area adjacent to the Laura occurrence near Mount
Bisson and could support mining operations with development of a road east from the aforementioned
logging road. However, processing of ore would require a nearby source of water, as in Munro Creek
valley that is not available in sufficient volume in the area covered by this flat ridge. This valley would
serve as potential waste disposal area for tailings.
Several streams, such as the Manson River and its tributary Munro Creek, flow all year and could
provide sources of water. Personnel required to run the mining operations could be hired in Mackenzie
and Prince George. Esker deposits of sand and gravel are present in the area and may serve as
16

17. aggregate for road-building related to mineral development. The length of a normal field season runs
from late June to late September as road access is impacted by snow cover especially at higher
elevations.
8. HISTORY
Recorded mineral exploration in the area proximal to the Mount Bisson claim-group commenced with
discovery of graphite at the Mon occurrence near Munro Creek by Halleran (1985). Rare-earth
mineralization was subsequently discovered and staked in the Mount Bisson area in 1986 and 1987 by
Halleran (1988a). The initial discovery was made at the Ursa occurrence on Munro Creek that was
followed by further discoveries in 1987 at the Laura No.1 and No. 2 occurrences on the flanks of
Mount Bisson (Halleran 1988b) and the Will No.1 and No. 2 occurrences, situated 7 km to the
northwest near the Manson River, in 1988 (Halleran 1988c).
A prospector syndicate led by A. Halleran undertook detailed geological mapping, scintillometer
surveys and soil sampling over four small grids and optioned the claim-groups to Chevron Minerals
Limited (Halleran 1988b, c). Further geological mapping on the Laura grid was undertaken in 1989
(Halleran 1989). A summary of the geology, mineralogy and lab analytical work in regards to the five
rare-earth mineral occurrences was presented in the 1989 annual fieldwork report of the British
Columbia Geological Survey Branch (Halleran and Russell 1990). This work was funded in part by a
fame grant of the BC government. The extensive work of Halleran on the Mount Bisson area rare-earth
mineralization culminated in a M.Sc. thesis (Halleran 1991) and two peer-reviewed publications:
Russell, Groat and Halleran (1994) and Halleran and Russell (1996).
The analytical work undertaken by Halleran (1991, p. 29-56) from four rare-element occurrences
produced 31 bulk rock compositions of grab samples augmented by 429 electron microprobe analysis
of major rock-forming minerals (apatite, aegerine-augite, biotite, diopside-hedenbergite, hornblende,
K-feldspar, plagioclase and titanite). These data include twelve electron microprobe compositions of
the allanite subgroup of the epidote mineral group as defined by Giere and Sorenson 2004 and
Armbruster 2006. The historical bulk rock composition data are given in Appendix 1 and summarized
in Table 1. It should be noted that all samples selected during Halleran’s work are grab samples with
no photographic documentation of the outcrops sampled. More detail on the results of the Chevron
Minerals and A.A.D Halleran exploration work can be found in Table of section 9 and sections 11 and
12.
Exploration work on the rare-earth mineralization subsequently remained quiescent after 1989 except
for a property examination by Leighton (1997) undertaken for the Argonauts Group Limited that
involved a brief inspection of the geology and analyses of four grab rock samples from the Laura No.1
occurrence. These claims subsequently lapsed and were re-staked by Paget Minerals Corporation in
2005 and additional claims were added in 2007 that currently represent a group of 12 contiguous
claims with a 100 percent ownership by the company.
During October 2 to 8, 2006 an airborne magnetic-radiometric survey was conducted over the property
by Fugro Airborne Surveys Ltd. that involved 595 line-kilometres (see Section 21.1 for detailed
information).
There has been no mining development or any historical resource estimates of any mineralization-type
on the claim-group.
17

18. 9. GEOLOGICAL SETTING
9.1 Regional geology
The Mount Bisson property is situated in the Ingenika group of the Omineca crystalline belt initially
defined by Gabrielse (1975) and subsequently divided into four groups by Mansy and Gabrielse
(1978). The Germansen Landing-Manson Creek area was the focus of a 4 year, 1:50 000 scale regional
geological mapping project by Ferri and Melville (1988, 1989, 1994) and the southeast corner of this
map area covers parts of claims 522746, 522747 and 522749 of the Mount Bisson property. This
project also included stream sediment and bulk rock analysis and a revision of MINFILE mineral
inventory of the area and available at http://www.em.gov.bc.ca/mining/GeolSurv/Minfile/ . Otherwise
no government sponsored geological mapping has been undertaken on the rest of the claim-group since
Tipper et al. (1974).
The Ingenika group is interpreted as Upper Proterozoic in age by Ferri and Melville (1988) and forms
part of the Cassiar continental margin assemblage (Colpron, Nelson and Murphy 2006) that is part of a
widespread zone of clastic metasedimentary rocks that stretches from southeastern British Columbia to
the northwestern Yukon (Roots 1988). This assemblage represents crustal rocks displaced from the
ancestral North American cratonic margin (Figure 1). In the project area, the Cassiar terrane comprises
lithologies that were complexly deformed and subjected to regional metamorphism during the middle
to Late Jurassic (Parrish 1979; Ferri and Melville 1994).
The term “Wolverine Metamorphic Complex” was employed by Ferri and Melville (1988; 1994) in
reference to a 5 to 50 by 150 km area of the Ingenika group rocks subjected to high-grade
metamorphism and severe deformation such that protolith recognition is difficult or impossible. The
term “Wolverine gneisses” will be used in this report in reference to the highly deformed and
metamorphosed lithologies within this complex (Ferri and Melville, 1988, p. 4) that locally have been
subjected to partial melting. The Ingenika group lies in structural contact to the west with the Slide
Mountain terrane that is much lower in metamorphic grade.
Granitic pegmatites of peraluminous composition and S-type characteristics (e.g., Breaks and Moore
1992) were plausibly generated during the middle Jurassic by partial melting of metawacke-metapelite
protoliths of the Wolverine gneisses. These distinctively white pegmatites are deformed, generally
subconcordant to the enclosing host rock foliation and exhibit boudinage and strong mineral stretching
lineations. Peraluminous minerals indicative of S-type granitic magmatism, such as sillimanite,
andalusite, garnet and tourmaline, are particularly prominent at locality 07-FWB-06.
Plutons interpreted as Late Cretaceous age and younger were also delineated by (Ferri and Melville
1988; 1994, p. 54-55) and are widely emplaced in the Wolverine gneisses. These rocks, grouped into
the Wolverine Range intrusive suite (Ferri and Melville 1994, p. 56) comprise batholiths, stocks and
narrow dykes of massive and weakly foliated biotite granite and granodiorite and related pegmatite that
commonly contain peraluminous minerals (muscovite and garnet).
The largest member of this group is an 8 by 10 km pluton of biotite granite and granodiorite situated
proximal to the Manson River that was delineated but unnamed by Ferri and Melville (1988). The
author has given the name “Chamberland Creek pluton” to this mass that has a southern lobe situated
within two km of the Wolverine pegmatite field (Figure 2). A U/Pb monazite age of 72.6±0.2 Ma was
determined by Ferri and Melville (1994, p. 56).
18

19. In vicinity of Mount Bisson, smaller masses of syenite, monzonite, quartz monzonite, diorite and
quartz diorite, up to 0.8 by 3 km in size, occur adjacent to the Laura No. 1 and No. 2 occurrences
(Figure 2) and were termed the “Mount Bisson intrusions” by Halleran (1991, p. 4). Similar rocks were
encountered in the present work near the Manson River (locality 07-FWB-03) and about 2 km north of
the Will No.1 and No.2 occurrences (localities 07-FWB-08, -10, -11 and -12). No absolute age
determinations are available for these rocks and are regarded by Ferri and Melville (1994, p. 55) as
Cretaceous or Tertiary in age. These plutons have been grouped into the Wolverine Range intrusive
suite in this report.

9.2 Property geology
The property and adjacent area comprise a diversity of rock-types that were examined during the field
investigations between October 2 and 5, 2007, July 17 and 23, 2008 and July 2 to 15, 2010, along
accessible roads and helicopter drop-offs. The lithologies encountered include the Wolverine gneisses
and later intrusive rocks. Three of the historical rare-earth element occurrences (Ursa, Laura #1 and #2)
were examined coupled with discoveries of a rare-earth element-mineralized pegmatite system at
locality 07-FWB-08 along the M-12000 Road (see M-12000 Road occurrence) by the author and at the
Central occurrence in 2010 by T. Barresi. The M12000 Road occurrence, discovered in 2007 by the
author, originally was situated on claim 568837 of Paget Minerals Corporation within a contiguous 22
claim block at Mount Bisson but was dropped by the vendor prior to the Seymour Ventures transaction.
This occurrence now lies on claim 842836 (claim name CLONE 4) that is 456.87 hectares in area and
belongs to A.R. Schindel as determined by a title search at:
https://www.mtonline.gov.bc.ca/mtov/searchTenures.do
The author cautions that the rare-earth element mineralization at this occurrence is not necessarily
indicative of that found on the adjacent Mount Bisson claim-group. The author also cautions that the
Central Occurrence was not examined by a qualified person in 2010 in regards to Section 6.2 (2) of NI
43-101. Under this section, the property is classified as an “early stage exploration property”. Seasonal
21

22. weather conditions (snow cover) prevented the author from accessing the property and obtaining
surface samples at the time of the request from the issuer and therefore the issuer will request that a
site examination be undertaken by the author in the 2011 field season.
Location data for all sample sites are provided using Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) co-
ordinates for Zone 10 in North American Datum 1983 (NAD83) that utilized a Garmin 76 GPS unit. A
tabulation of all localities in which samples were sent to commercial laboratories for bulk analysis or
for electron microprobe analysis at The Open University, Milton Keynes, United Kingdom, is given in
Appendices 2 and 4 and. The locations of all samples are also shown in Figures 3a, 3b, 10, and 15.
The bulk rock chemical data was processed with the Geochemical Data Toolkit (GCD kit) that is
petrogenetic software freely available at http://www.gla.ac.uk/gcdkit/ (Janousek, Farrow and Erban
2006). The chemical variation of the rare-earth elements was mainly assessed with chondrite-
normalized plots calculated by the reference standard of Boynton (1984). The chondrite-normalized
ratios La/YbN and Eu/Eu* are respectively employed to reveal the degree of the rare-earth element
fractionation and the extent of repletion/depletion of europium.
The ensuing text will now provide detailed field, petrographic and mineralogical features of all
lithological groups encountered. Fourteen thin-sections from zones of rare-earth element
mineralization were selected for Cameca SX-100 electron microprobe analysis and generation of X-
Ray maps. These data comprise 1179 mineral compositions that are given in Appendices 3, 5 and 6
along with analytical conditions and standards used for the probe work and details of the X-Ray map
procedure. The probe work was designed as a pilot project at the Department of Earth Sciences of The
Open University to determine if such data could facilitate exploration of rare-earth elements in the
study area.

24. 9.2.1 Wolverine Metasedimentary Gneisses
This group comprise the most abundant rock types in the area investigated and are exposed at 80
percent of the localities in Figure 3. The most common lithologies comprise:
 clastic metasedimentary rocks (quartz arenite, wacke and metapelite),
 calcium-rich metasedimentary rocks (marble, calc-silicate rocks and calcareous
metapelites and wackes), and,
 diorite and quartz diorite gneiss.
Thin layers of amphibolite of unknown derivation are interlayered with calc-silicate rocks such as
at the Ursa rare-earth element occurrence.
9.2.1.1 Metawacke, Metapelite and Related Migmatites
Excellent exposures of clastic metasedimentary rocks occur at locality 07-FWB-06 where a freshly
blasted section reveals typical Wolverine metasedimentary gneiss (Photo 1).
Photo 1. Good exposure of highly deformed and locally migmatized clastic metasedimentary rocks on the Munro Camp
Road. Arrow on the right side indicates a dyke of peraluminous, S-type pegmatitic granite that is discordant to host-rock
foliation and yet has been subjected to ductile deformation along its contact.
The outcrop consists of strongly foliated and lineated biotite and garnet-biotite metawacke and biotite-
sillimanite metapelite that locally reveal low leucosome-fraction partial melt features. Here, metatexite
contains thin, deformed leucosomes oriented concordant and at low angles to the dominant foliation of
the mesosome host. Similarly, partially melted, sillimanite-bearing metawacke and metapelite were
encountered at 07-FWB-08 on the M-12000 Road and a high degree of flattening of leucosomes is
notable in the sillimanite-rich metapelite host-rocks such that the granite leucosome and mesosome
24

25. constituents of the migmatite become blurred and may only be clearly distinguished on rock slabs
etched with hydrofluoric acid and stained for K-feldspar.
The clastic metasedimentary constituent contains white weathering granitic pegmatite masses that are
generally subconcordant or modestly discordant to the host rock foliation but yet reveal evidence of
overprinting deformation along the pegmatite contacts or by foliations that refract across such bodies
(Photo 1). These rocks are described in more detail below (see Peraluminous, S-Type granitic
pegmatites).
Figure 4. Chondrite-normalized REE plot for various clastic metasedimentary rocks from the Wolverine gneisses.
Clastic metasedimentary rocks of the area reveal chondrite patterns that are mostly confined to a band
with total rare-earth elements in the range 162 to 199 ppm (Figure 4). These modestly negatively
sloping patterns (12.7<La/YbN<28.1) compare closely with the average post-Archean Australian shale
composite (PAAS) of Taylor and McLennan (1985) that is a good estimate of the average upper
continental crust composition.
Only one sample (148674: sillimanite-biotite metapelite) at locality 07-FWB-16 contains anomalous
rare-earth element concentrations (756 ppm) that depart from the otherwise tight compositional cluster
of the other clastic metasedimentary rocks. The mineral repositories of the rare-earth elements are not
known but these could include monazite.
25

26. 9.2.1.2 Quartz Arenite and Quartz-rich Metawacke
These rock types, described by Ferri and Melville (1988, 1994), are abundant to the west of the
marble-calc-silicate rock band in Figure 2 but were only observed at locality 07-FWB-15. Here, layers,
5 to 30 cm thick, are tectonically layered with garnet-biotite metawacke and sillimanite-biotite
metapelite (Photo 2).
Photo 2. Highly tectonized layers of buff coloured quartz arenite (towards left side of photo) within a dominant, dark brown
sillimanite-biotite metapelite at locality 07-FWB-15.
9.2.1.3 Calcium-rich Clastic Metasedimentary Rocks
Rocks that comprise this unit were only found at locality 07-FWB-17 where a garnet-quartz-
hedenbergite-plagioclase rock, interpreted as a calcium-rich metawacke, is layered with potassic
feldspar-rich bands that conceivably represent meta-arkose. Minor amounts of fluorapatite, titanite and
allanite were also confirmed in thin section and by electron microprobe analysis.
Late fracture-controlled alteration, locally with quartz-rich lenticles, transects the foliation at this
locality and indicates that breakdown of K-feldspar and hedenbergite occurred in these domains. Such
bands post-date formation of the allanite as micro-fractures related to this deformation event slice
through some grains of this mineral.
9.2.1.4 Calc-Silicate Rocks and Marble
These rocks are mainly confined to a southeast-striking band, up to 200 metres wide, that was
delineated by Ferri and Melville (1988). This unit is traceable for at least 10 km from the Chamberland
Creek pluton on the north to beyond the southeastern limits of their map-area. Elsewhere, calc-silicate
rocks and calcite marble were encountered as small outcrops (e.g., locality 07-FWB-01) or as layers up
26

27. to 3 metres in thickness within a dominant clastic metasedimentary host as at localities 07-FWB-04 and
-17. The mineralogy consists of calcite, plagioclase, diopside, phlogopite, and minor garnet, epidote,
and pyrite. Diopside is a characteristic mineral and can compose up to 60 percent of the mode.
The Ursa rare-earth element pegmatite is situated within the mid-part of the calc-silicate band at
Munro Creek where a diopside-biotite-calcite-plagioclase unit is dominant and locally layered with
thin amphibolite. Diopside-rich skarn envelopes are conspicuous at this locality adjacent to a granitic
pegmatite that has subjected to severe ductile deformation and late discordant biotite- and hornblende-
bearing, medium-grained granite dykes.
9.2.1.5 Migmatized Tonalite and Quartz Diorite
Rocks of this map unit consist of tonalite and quartz diorite that have been subjected to high strain and
intense migmatization. These rocks occur at localities 07-FWB-13, -14 and -18 and proximal to the
Laura occurrence where these are widely distributed. Near the Munro Creek at locality 07-FWB-13, a
0.6 by 0.8 km mass was included in the “Mount Bisson intrusions” by Halleran and Russell (1990, p.
298).
These migmatites are characterized by compositional layering marked by light pink, coarse-grained to
pegmatitic, granite and syenite leucosomes, 1 to 5 cm in thickness, that have been severely flattened
such that rootless, intrafolial, isoclinal folds and shear bands are commonly evident. Some areas of the
quartz diorite mesosome have undergone hornblende porphyroblastesis that imparts a coarsening to
the host of the leucosome layers (Photo 3).
There is no absolute age determination for these complex rocks, however, given the high state of
deformation and migmatization, such material could represent slivers of granitic basement to the
Wolverine metasedimentary gneisses that were thrust into the metamorphic complex. However, no
contact relations with the enclosing Wolverine metasedimentary rocks were observed. The migmatized
quartz diorite to tonalite rocks are intruded by white, relatively massive, biotite-bearing, granitic
pegmatitic leucogranite of probable S-type, peraluminous derivation, as at locality 07-FWB-14, where
enclaves of the migmatized quartz diorite were noted.
27

28. Photo 3. Highly strained, migmatitic quartz diorite to tonalite with granite leucosomes in which severely flattened, isoclinal
folds are barely discernible (as left of pencil).
9.2.2 Felsic to Intermediate Intrusive Rocks
Lithologies of this category are abundantly distributed in the area and comprise two groups.
9.2.2.1 Peraluminous, S-type Granitic Pegmatites
Granitic pegmatites of this category consist of pegmatitic leucogranite and potassic pegmatite in the
pegmatitic granite classification of Černý and Meintzer (1988). The presence of strongly peraluminous
accessory mineralogy such as andalusite, sillimanite, garnet and tourmaline, as exemplified by locality
07-FWB-06, in the context of a high grade clastic metasedimentary setting, supports a S-type origin for
these granitoid rocks. Similar granitic pegmatites are widespread in high grade, clastic
metasedimentary-dominant subprovinces in the Superior Province of Ontario as observed and
delineated by the author (Breaks 1991; Breaks and Moore 1992; Breaks, Selway and Tindle 2005 and
2006).
These pegmatites are modestly to intensely deformed (Photo 1) and marked by a cataclastic,
protomylonite texture and a quartz mineral stretching lineation. These pegmatite masses may have been
emplaced during several anatectic events prior to a final overprint of ductile deformation.
At the Ursa rare-earth element occurrence, an internally zoned potassic pegmatite is poorly exposed
(henceforth named the “Ursa pegmatite”) but appears to be concordant to the foliation of host rocks that
consist of calc-silicate metasedimentary rocks layered with amphibolite, as surmised from very limited
rock exposure.
28

29. Figure 5. Chondrite-normalized REE plot for peraluminous, S-type granitic pegmatites of the Mount Bisson area.
These rocks are severely depleted in rare-earth elements with the range of total rare-earth elements of
37.6 to 54.3 ppm (Figure 5). Such values are approximately 0.3 to 0.5 times the upper continental
crustal average (140 ppm: Taylor and McLennan 1985). A similar degree of rare-earth element
depletion is typical of Archean S-type pegmatitic granites of the Quetico subprovince of Ontario
(Breaks, Selway and Tindle 2008).
The rare-earth element chondrite patterns are typically flat to modestly negatively sloping
(3.5<La/YbN<29.3) and are characteristically marked by positive europium anomalies
(1.08<Eu/Eu*<2.76) due to retention of Eu2+ by feldspar-rich rocks such as these.
Rocks of this category are generally not good candidates for achieving economic concentrations of the
rare-earth elements because of their very low calcium content.
9.2.2.2 Wolverine Range Intrusive Suite
This lithologic group is dominated in the immediate area by the 78.2 ±2 Ma Chamberland Creek pluton
(Figure 2). Related dykes and were encountered at several localities in the area as proximal to the
southeastern flanks of the pluton as along the Manson River Forestry Service Road (e.g., locality 07-
FWB-02). Here, white weathered, massive, predominantly medium-grained, biotite granite is exposed.
Sporadic garnet and K-feldspar megacrysts up to 1 cm diameter occur in the granite that is later
transected by fracture-controlled chlorite and hematite alteration. Halos of retrograde alteration, marked
by chlorite replacement of biotite, are evident up to 1 cm from these fractures.
Two identical masses, respectively 0.3 by 1.5 and 0.3 by 0.6 km in surface dimensions, were
encountered proximal to the Laura rare-earth element occurrence and comprise part of this intrusive
29

30. suite (Figure 2).Similar dykes of biotite granite, which intrude the Wolverine gneisses, were found at
localities 07-FWB-03, -05 and -16, and 08-FWB-07.
At the Ursa rare-earth element occurrence, post-tectonic, planar dykes of biotite granite sharply intrude
its calc-silicate host-rocks where 5 to 10 cm thick skarn rinds are obvious and dominated by coarse-
grained, bright green diopside (60-70 %).
9.2.3 Mafic to Intermediate Intrusive Rocks
Rocks of this unit are relatively minor in abundance and mostly confined to the M-12000 Road intrusive
complex that includes the area around the Will #1 occurrence.
9.2.3.1 M12000 Road Intrusive Complex
Rocks of this mass, which was not comprehensively delineated by this work, occur along the M-12000
Road at localities 07-FWB-08, -10, -11 and -12 (Figure 3b) and proximal to the Will # 2 occurrence at
localities 08-FWB-02 and -06 (Figure 14). This intrusive complex is at least 3 by 5 km and consists of
biotite-diopside-hornblende diorite, quartz diorite and sparse quartz monzonite that contain sparse mafic
to ultramafic plutonic enclaves.
Small amounts of allanite, titanite, diopside, epidote, rutile, magnetite, ilmenite, zircon and pyrite were
observed in thin section and confirmed by electron microprobe work in the majority of rock types of
this complex (see M-12000 Road rare-earth element occurrence in Section 17.2).
Isolated exposures of massive, white weathering, biotite granite at localities 07-FWB-09, 07-FWB-12
and 08-FWB-07 are petrographically identical to the Chamberland Creek pluton and represent dykes or
small stocks that cut the M-12000 Road intrusive complex.
The chondrite REE patterns (Figure 6) are generally modestly sloping (7.2<La/YbN<29) and usually
with small positive europium anomalies (0.98<Eu/Eu*<1.6). Sporadic K2O-rich ultramafic enclaves,
mineralized with chalcopyrite, pyrrhotite and scheelite, have a higher content of total rare-earth
elements (240 ppm) than a sample of a similar rock selected a small distance from the mineralized zone
(72 ppm). The highest total rare-earth element value occurs in a biotite-clinopyroxene-hornblende
diorite (528 ppm) and is petrographically similar to titanite-diopside-hornblende diorite at the M-12000
Road rare-earth element occurrence.
30

31. Figure 6. Chondrite-normalized REE plot for various units of the M-12000 Road intrusive complex.
9.2.3.2 Lamprophyre Dykes
A one-metre thick, fine-grained, undeformed, pyrite-hornblende-biotite lamprophyre dyke cuts across
calc-silicate and metawacke units at locality 07-FWB-04. The rock has a panidiomorphic granular
texture marked by 20% randomly oriented biotite laths that are enveloped by plagioclase and rare quartz
phenocrysts up to 2 mm diameter. Accessories include epidote, allanite, apatite and titanite.
The bulk rock chemistry suggests a lamprophyric affinity with the elevated K2O, Ba, Sr and total rare-
earth elements and modest fractionation of the LREE (Appendix 2). The chondrite rare-earth element
plot, with gently sloping negative curves (La/YbN = 24.4 to 30.2) bear a similarity to lamprophyres that
occur elsewhere, as for example, the Cretaceous camptonites of northwestern Namibia (Roex and
Lanyon 1998).
10. DEPOSIT TYPES
The rare-earth mineralized granitic pegmatites of the Wolverine field belong to the NYF geochemical
family (Nb-Y-F) and were classified by Černý (2005) and Ercit (2005) as Abyssal class, AB-LREE-
subclass.This deposit type is currently the sole target of the proposed exploration program.
The granite-related, rare-earth element mineralization in the Wolverine pegmatite field occurs in three
distinct geological settings and hence no singular exploration model is applicable:
 post-tectonic, quartz-rich, calc-alkaline pegmatite vein system hosted in diorite and quartz
diorite (M-12000 Road occurrence),
31

32.  S-type, peraluminous granite and pegmatite hosted in calc-silicate units of Wolverine gneiss
(Ursa occurrence), and,
 contact skarn mineralization layered with I-type, syenite, syenogranite, and trondhjemite of the
72.6±0.2 Ma Wolverine Range intrusive suite (Laura # 1, #2 and Pegmatite 541 occurrences
and possibly the Central occurrence).
Future exploration should focus upon the particular rare-earth element-lithologic association and
inferred genetic history as summarized below:
Ursa Rare-Earth Mineralization Type
At the Ursa occurrence, relatively early, ductily deformed, weakly peraluminous to metaluminous
granitic pegmatites of plausible S-type origin contain local concentrations of allanite in border zones
that contact calc-silicate and marble host-rocks. Skarn selvedges of contact metamorphic origin are
characteristic of the pegmatites of this group and typically are diopside-rich with sparse garnet, epidote,
and scheelite.
Exploration for this type of rare-earth element mineralization should focus upon delineation of
peraluminous pegmatitic granite intrusions that have elevated calcium contents and characterized by
diopside, titanite, epidote and allanite due to interaction with calc-silicate host-rocks.
Laura Rare-Earth Mineralization Type
The second type of rare-earth element mineralization is exemplified by the Laura and Pegmatite 541
occurrences that are inferred to be genetically related to the 72.6±0.2 Ma Wolverine Range intrusive
suite. Here, masses of allanite-titanite-plagioclase-diopside skarn are interlayered with allanite-diopside
sodic pegmatite, and medium-grained, quartz-bearing syenite, syenodiorite, monzogranite and
trondhjemite along the contact zone with the Wolverine gneiss. Such metaluminous to weakly
peraluminous rocks have similarities to volcanic arc granitic rocks in terms of trace element
classification schemes that involve high field strength elements (HFSE) such as Ta, Nb, and Y (Pearce,
Harris and Tindle 1984). The Central Occurrence is currently of undetermined genetic affiliation but
may be related to the Laura occurrence situated 3.6 km to the SE. Further field examination is required
to define whether a genetic relationship exists between the Laura and Central occurrences.
Skarn mineralization that contains allanite appears widespread on global basis as inferred from an
internet search of relevant publications. In contrast, allanite is relatively sparse in carbonatite intrusions,
silica-undersatured alkaline intrusive rocks (Plimer 1993) and quartz-bearing granitic rocks enriched in
alkali metals (e.g., Rodeo de los Molles REE-Th deposit, Argentina: Lira and Ripley 1991).
The Mary-Kathleen U-REE deposit in Australia exemplifies an association of allanite with a diopside-
rich, calcic skarn spatially associated with the endoskarns related to the 1.7Ga Burstall granite (Page
1982; Oliver 1995; Australian Geoscience: http:// www.ga.gov.au/image_cache/GA3785.pdf ). The
formation of this deposit, however, is interpreted as a later event related to regional metamorphism,
ductile shearing and hydrothermal mobilization (Maas et al. 1987).
During 1958 to 1982, 9.5 million tonnes of ore that averaged 0.13 wt.% U3O8 were mined and this
development included 200, 000 tonnes of allanite-rich ore with an average grade of 2.6 wt.% total
REE (Plimer 1993). The author, however, is unable to verify the information in relation to the tonnage
and average grade of the Mary-Kathleen U-REE deposit and therefore these data are not necessarily
indicative of mineralization on the Mount Bisson claim-group that is the subject of this technical report.
32

33. Mineralization of a possibly similar style occurs at Hoidas Lake in the Rae Province in northern
Saskatchewan, where rare-earth elements, present in allanite and apatite, are associated with a diopside-
rich skarn contained within a shear zone called the Hoida-Nisikkatch fault (Gunning and Card 2005).
Rare-earth element mineralization of probable skarn affiliation and associated with calc-silicate,
paragneiss and mafic metavolcanic rocks are also known in northern Quebec where veins enriched in
allanite occur at the Lataille showing. Samples of Madore et al. (2002) and Labbe et al. (2003) returned
an average of 0.25 wt % total REE and with a maximum content of 1.59 wt.%.
Halleran (1991) interpreted the metasomatism and origin of the rare-earth element mineralization at the
Laura occurrence as due to alkalic intrusive activity and related fenitization. However, data in present
work (electron microprobe analysis and lithochemistry) have thus far indicated a complete absence of
minerals and rock types that substantiate the presence of fenitization such as aegerine-augite,
arfvedsonite group, and riebeckite group. Fenitization is commonly linked to undersaturated, alkaline
intrusive rocks such as nepheline syenite, ijolite and urtite or to carbonatite masses (Bell 1989) and
these two lithologic groups were not observed on the property.
Evidence of metasomatism and rare-earth element enrichment due to interaction with pegmatite-
forming fluids was, however, noted along the contact of Pegmatite 541 near the Laura occurrence where
diorite of the Wolverine gneiss host-rocks contains a notable increase in diopside, titanite and allanite at
the partial expense of hornblende.
Exploration should closely examine the contact zones between plutons of the Wolverine Range
intrusive suite and the Wolverine metasedimentary gneisses, particularly where interleaved calc-silicate
units are involved that could generate skarn mineralization through magmatic interaction.
M-12000 Road Rare-Earth Mineralization Type
The M-12000 Road occurrence constitutes the third rare-earth element mineralization type documented
in this work. This occurrence was originally situated on claim 568837 of Paget Minerals Corporation
within a contiguous 22 claim block at Mount Bisson but was dropped by the vendor prior to the
Seymour Ventures transaction. This occurrence now lies on claim 842836 (claim name CLONE 4) that
is 456.87 hectares in area and belongs to A.R. Schindel as determined by a title search at:
https://www.mtonline.gov.bc.ca/mtov/searchTenures.do
The author cautions that the rare-earth element mineralization at this occurrence is not necessarily
indicative of that found on the adjacent Mount Bisson claim-group.
The showing consists of vein systems of undeformed, quartz-rich, titanite-diopside calc-alkaline
pegmatite (2-3 m width and exposed over 5 m minimum strike length) hosted within lineated, titanite-
hornblende diorite and quartz diorite. The mafic rocks, in turn, are contained within migmatized and
highly deformed clastic metasedimentary rocks. A distinctive green metasomatic aureole is
symmetrically deposed along the vein margins and comprises titanite-diopside enrichment in
hornblende quartz diorite that is evident along the flanks of the pegmatite veins.
Elevated total REE contents up to 1463 ppm, with the highest yttrium (124 ppm) and total HREE values
(123 ppm), were found in grab samples from the occurrence. Epidote, titanite and vesuvianite reveal
enrichment in Y2O3 up to 3.5 wt.%. The close geochemical similarity of yttrium with some of the
HREE’s such as holmium and gadolinium (Samson and Wood 2005) suggests that exploration potential
exists in the immediate area of this occurrence for such elements
33

34. Exploration is recommended that targets mafic and intermediate plutonic rocks of the M-12000 Road
intrusive complex in the northern part of the claim-group at least to further delineate this new type of
rare-earth element mineralization type which is entirely open in strike length.
11. MINERALIZATION
The Mount Bisson claim-group contains two mineral deposit types and both were examined by the
author:
 Cu-W-Ag in mafic intrusive rocks (Manson River East Occurrence), and,
 Rare-earth element mineralization hosted in diverse lithologies at four localities.
Grab samples were collected from various localities and those destined for analysis consisted of fresh
pieces of bedrock collected over representative areas of a given outcrop. Between 0.5 and 21 kg of
rock material was selected and the sample size was dependent upon grain size. For coarse-grained to
pegmatite units, larger amounts were collected and up to 21 kg. All samples selected for analysis were
homogeneous with respect to grain size at the collection site. The author is not aware of any sampling
factors that could impact the accuracy and reliability of the chemical data. However, the author
cautions that grab samples are by nature selective and therefore may not represent average grades.
The mineralization at the Manson River East Occurrence and the M12000 Road occurrences were
situated on claim of the Mount Bisson claim-group when the author conducted field work for Paget
Minerals Corp in 2007 and 2008. As these mineral occurrences now exist on property adjacent to the
Seymour claim-group, the detailed description of the mineralization has been transferred to “Adjacent
Properties” in Section 17. The author cautions that the mineralization at these occurrences is not
necessarily indicative of that found on the adjacent Mount Bisson claim-group.
The rare-earth element mineralization in the Wolverine pegmatite field exposed on the claim-group
occurs in two distinct local geological settings and hence no singular deposit model is applicable:
 Laura #1, #2, Pegmatite 541 and Central occurrences: granitic to syenitic intrusive rocks and
related pegmatite that are interlayered with allanite-diopside-rich skarns ostensibly controlled
by the contact between the 72.6±0.2 Ma Wolverine Range intrusive suite and highly deformed
diorite gneiss and calc-silicate rocks of the Wolverine gneiss unit, and
 Ursa occurrence: peraluminous, deformed, S-type pegmatitic granite hosted in calc-silicate and
psammitic-metapelitic metasedimentary rocks of the Ingenika group.
The allanite subgroup [(Ca,Ce,Y)2 (Al,Fe3+)3Si3O12(OH)] of the epidote group is the main rare-earth
element mineral of economic interest although subordinate concentrations of the rare-earth elements
can occur in coexisting titanite, fluorapatite and epidote. Electron microprobe analyses of allanite from
rare-earth element occurrences near Mount Bisson reveal an average La2O3+Ce2O3+Pr2O3+Nd2O3 of
20.3 wt.% and low to modest contents of deleterious elements such as ThO2 and UO2.
A summary of mean contents and ranges for ∑REE and Y from various occurrences examined by the
author is presented below and compared to historical data.
