Deposit (sub) types: |
stratabound tabular and lensoid bodies; bedded magnetite in the Treasure Lake Group; as much as 20 m thick and folded; no other metal found to date, but the zone is regarded as potentially favourable for Cloncurry-type mineralization ; Reference: Gandhi, S. S., 1992: Magnetite Deposits in Metasiltstones of the Snare Group at Hump Lake, Northwest Territories; in Current Research 1992, Part A, Edited by Geological Survey of Canada, Paper, Geological Survey of Canada, 92-1A, p. 225 - 235 |
