Introduction

In October of 1998 Nelson Granite Limited carried out a

drill dust sampling program followed by stripping and bulk sampling

on mining claim K-1149879 in the Kilgour Lake Area, Kenora Mining

Division. Drill dust was collected from 70 percussion drill holes

and differences in colour were determined using a Munsell Rock-

Colour Chart.

The advantages of drill dust sampling over other conventional

sampling methods are:

1) Material can be sampled below the area affected by weathering.

Surface sampling using a sledge hammer is seldom successful in

getting unweathered material.

2) Drill dust sampling is a faster and more cost effective method

than core drilling in areas where there are variations in colour

and a large number of holes are required to determine colour changes,

The main disadvantage is that textural changes and streaking

cannot be observed.

Stripping and bulk sampling were carried out targeting mainly

the red granites encountered on the property. In total 8 sites -

were examined.

Location Access and Topography

The Black Lake Property, mining claim K-1149879 is located

33 kilometers north and 38.5 kilometers east of the city of Kenora.

UTM: 393500 mE Zone 15 UTM: 432000 mE Zone 15

5514000 mN 5547000 mN

Access to the property is via the Jones Road, a hard surfaced

secondary highway which passes directly through the property.

Fifty percent of the area of claim K-1149879 is bare granite

outcrop. The remainder is covered by thick Jackpine and spruce

regeneration and odd areas of mature standing timber. It is part

of larger area burnt over in 1980.

The claim is centered over a topographically high granite

structure. In the western part of the claim the granite dips

gently to the southwest. In the eastern part of the claim area

the granite drops steeply down 100 meters towards Black Lake

and a line of swamps south of it.

Description of the Granite

The granite is predominately porphyritic containing brown,

pink or red megacrysts in a grey, medium to coarse-grained matrix.

The megacrysts reach a maximum size of 4 centimeters and are

usually lath shaped, but may appear rounded depending on their

orientation. In most places megacrysts have a preferred orientation,

but this characteristic varies in intensity and grades locally

into areas of random crystal orientation. Also noted on the property

were areas having few megacrysts and the granite appears medium to

coarse grained.

In the northeast corner of the property the granite is quite

red. Here the proportion of megacrysts to matrix material is very

high. As the proportion of matrix material increases the colour

of the granite becomes less red.

In the southwest corner of the property the granite has a

predominant grey matrix and the material is somewhat similar to

that being quarried by Cold Spring Granite approximately 2 kilometers

to the north.

The colour of the granite is influenced by two things: 1) The

colour of the megacrysts gives the granite it's basic colour.

2) The proportion of matix material influences the shade.

Drill Dust Sampling

During quarry operations often the first indication of colour

change in the granite is noted by the drillers when they observe

colour changes in the drill dust. Experienced drillers can usually

predict the colour of the granite being drilled with a fair degree

of accuracy. When the drill dust is wet during rainy days the

colour differences are even more noticable.

Method

A series of 16 foot deep percussion drill holes were put down

in the granite outcrop at roughly 100 foot intervals. The work

was done using a self-propelled Tamrock Commando hydraulic rock drill.

Drill dust samples were collected from cuttings at a depth

interval between 10 and 16 feet. The rock drill is equipped with a

dust collector which collects dust during the drill cycle and dumps

the collected dust once drilling stops. Two lengths of drill steel

were used, a 10 foot and a 16 foot length. After the 10 foot length

was drilled the dust was allowed to dump on the ground. A pail was

used to collect the dust from the 10 to 16 foot interval. These

samples were bagged and labelled by drill hole number.

Sample Preparation

Each sample was prepared for colour analysis using two different

proceedures: 1) A small sample (pill bottle sized) of unscreened

dust was completely immersed in water, deslimed by shaking and running

water over the sample until the water became clear. 2) The remaining

drill dust was screened and the +1 mm. size fraction was retained,

put in clear glass pill bottles and covered with water (run until

clear).

Both groups of samples were then arranged in order of colour

from the darkest red through to the darkest grey. Using a Munsell

Rock-Colour Chart samples were grouped into colour ranges. Table

l lists sample numbers by colour range and positions within that

range for unscreened samples. Table 2 does the same for screened

samples. Table 3 gives the correlation between the two sample

preparation methods.

Observations

The screened +1 mm. samples gave the best indication of phenocryst

colour. This was probably due to differences in crushing characteristics

of the minerals with phenocryst material having a tendency to crush

to larger size particles. Unscreened samples gave a better indication

of the proportion of matrix material and therefore the shade.

Results

An interpretation of the results of the drill dust sampling

is shown on the map appended to this report. The drill dust colours

as described in the Munsell Rock-Colour Charts are the basis for

the interpretation of the colour of the granite. The interpretation

is simplified by using the common industry colour distinctions red,

pink, brown and grey.

Stripping and Bulk Sampling

Stripping and Bulk Sampling was carried out on 8 different

sites on the Black Lake Property. The principal target was the

red megacrystic granite found in the eastern part of the property.

Although red granite is found elsewhere on the claim the reddest

colour occurs here and most of the sampling was directed toward this

area. Two sites were tested in the southwest corner of the claim.

At one of the two thick granite ledges are exposed affording an easy

chance to get a good sample.

Equipment Used

The equipment used for the stripping and bulk sampling included

a Cat 215 Backhoe and a Tamrock Commando hydraulic rock drill.

Explosives used included K-pipe charges, 50 grain detonating

cord and safety fuses. Hand tools consisted of plugs, feathers and

sledge hammer

Results

Sample Site 1:

The stone here was a very dark red megacrystic granite of

exceptional good colour. Test quarrying revealed that there was

too many black streaks and microfractures.

Sample Site 2:

The stone at site 2 had a predominately grey matrix and the

general colour did not look good. There were many cracks in the

stone.

Sample Site 3;

The stone at site 3 was a red megacrystic granite that contained

both black and red streaks. Multi directional microfractures were

common here.

Sample Site 4;

The stone at site 4 was a red megacrystic granite with an odd

red streak. The formation here was very difficult to test quarry.

Sample Site 5:

The stone at site 5 was a red megacrystic granite with a grey

matrix. Phenocrysts were randomly orientated, 5 centimeters long,

lath shaped. This location had horizontal to sub-horizontal micro-

fractures spaced about every half meter.

Sample Site 6:

The stone at site 6 is two-toned having seperate areas of both

red and brown megacrysts in a grey matrix. The granite had red and

black streaks and microfractures occur about every 30 centimeters.

Plate 9 shows the kind of streaking and colour variation that is

found at this location.

Sample Site 7;

The stone at site 7 is a pink to red megacrystic granite with

a grey matrix. The odd grey streak was observed here along with

microfractures.

Sample Site 8:

The stone at site 8 is a pink to brown megacrystic granite in

a grey matrix. Some grey and pink streaks were observed along with

some microfractures near the top of the ledge. Below this the

granite looked quite uniform and may present the best location for

quarrying. The ledge is 16 feet thick with wide spaced vertical

joints.

Conclusions

Drill dust sampling indicates that there is considerable

variations in colour on the property. Bulk sampling was not

successful in locating an area of quarryable red granite. Virtually

all sites tested had problems with streaking and microfractures.

All material test quarried was left on site with the exception of

l small red granite block. This block was shipped to the company's

monument plant for sawing. It was found to have many microfractures

and was discarded.

One area to show some promise was at sample site 8 where large

blocks (defect free) could be obtained. The colour of the stone

here is not exceptional and the amount of area covered by this

material is not known.

The central part of the deposit was not tested and there may yet

be possibilities of quarryable material found here. This area of

exposed granite is massive with no exposed ledges making test quarrying

of the material nearly impossible with the equipment used.

Recommendations

If further work is to be done on the property it should consist of diamond drilling to confirm colour and colour variations in the

central claim area. Ground penetrating radar surveys could give

useful information about structure. This would be helpful in any

future test quarry program.

EXPLANATION OF THE ROCK-COLOR CHART

This chart is designed primarily for field use, but nevertheless it indi cates the range of rock colors for all purposes. The mineralogist and the geologist working in the laboratory no doubt will feel the need of more colors and perhaps a different style of mounting. For their purpose, sim ilar color chips or large colored sheets that may be cut into any de sired size can be purchased from the Munsell Color Company, 2441 N. Calvert St., Baltimore 21218, Maryland. Additional color names for colors outside the range of rock colors can be found in U.S. National Bureau of Standards Special Publication SP 440, "Color, universal lan guage and dictionary of names," 184 p, (1976) available from the Su perintendent of Documents, Washington D.C. 20402.

The form and arrangement of the chart are based on the Munsell system, the most widely accepted system of color identification in use in the United States. This system is based on a color solid or approximate ly a color sphere, which has a neutral gray axis grading from white at the top to black at the bottom (see fig. 1). This property of lightness is called value. Around the circumference or equator of the solid are the 10 major hues shown in fig. l, each of which is divided into 10 number ed divisions, so that 5 marks the middle of a hue and 10 marks the boundary between one hue and the next. Thus any particular hue can be designated by a number and a letter such as 5R or 10YR. Any single vertical section through the neutral gray axis and a particular hue constitutes a color chart on which the colors grade in value from light at the top to dark at the bottom and in chroma (degree of saturation) from gray at the left to the most vivid colors at the right. Both value and chroma are numbered so any particular color can be given a numer ical designation representing hue, value, and chroma such as 5R 6/4 and 10YR 8/2. The rock colors have been placed on the charts in ap proximately their correct relative position according to the Munsell system, and the Munsell numerical designations have been placed un der the color names for the use of those who wish to make fine color

distinctions. Numerical designations of colors lying between the color chips on the chart can be interpolated, as for example, if the color of a rock lies half way between light red (5R 6/6) and moderate red (5R 4/6) it can be designated as 5R 5/6, or if it is nearer to light red, it can be de signated as 5R 5.5/6. In the same way hue and chroma can be interpola ted. The spacing of the color chips according to chroma has been slight ly modified in order that, if the geologist desires, he can cut each chart into two strips along the center black line and thus have most of the col or chips along the margins of the strips so that they can be closely com pared with the rock specimen. However, the chart is simpler to use when not cut into strips and some geologists will prefer to leave it un cut. All the grays or one chroma colors have been grouped together on the last page of the chart in order that they can be readily compared with one another.

The color names have been taken from the ISCC-NBS 1 system as described in U.S. National Bureau of Standards Special Publication SP440 as this system has been accepted by a large number of scientific organizations. According to this system each color name, such as pale purple, occupies a field or portion of space in the color solid (fig. 2), whereas a Munsell designation, such as 5 P 6/2 is represented by a point. Consequently a single color name may be represented by two or more differently colored chips, each having a different Munsell designa tion. The use of the Munsell system is recommended to geologists who find need for closer discrimination than is provided by the color names on the chart.

The Rock-color Chart Committee decided to adhere as closely as pos sible to the ISCC-NBS system of names, inasmuch as the system is al ready widely used by organizations interested in color. However, the ISCC-NBS Subcommittee on Color Names has tentatively adopted cer tain modifications in their system which will be incorporated in a new edition of the Bureau of Standards Research Paper RP 1239. These mo difications consist chiefly in substituting the adjective grayish for weak, the term dark grayish for dusky, and the term light grayish for pale. With respect to the last two terms, however, the ISCC-NBS Subcom-

mittee provides for the use of the terms dusky arid pale as alternatives. The Rock-color Chart Committee, therefore, decided to substitute gray ish for weak, but to retain the terms dusky and pale as these tend to shorten several of the color names and to avoid the use of 4-word color names. The Rock-color Chart Committee has also made a few other mi-

-* - ' -.-. ^nor changes from the ISCC-NBS revised names, in order to eliminate as many duplications of names on the chart as possible, and in order to avoid awkward combinations such as grayish reddish brown and gray ish greenish yellow. However, the Committee has attempted to make these changes entirely consistent with the ISCC-NBS system.

It is hoped that these color names will eventually become familiar to all geologists, but it is realized that some geologists may prefer to use a different system of names. To them it is suggested that in published re ports, they follow each color name with the Munsell notation so that other geologists can readily refer to the right color on the chart. For a comparison of the Munsell and ISCC-NBS systems with other systems of color identification and color names, geologists are referred to NBS Special Publication SP 440.

The color chips are as permanent as it is possible to make them. However, it is considered advisable to protect the Rock-Color from bright sunlight and dampness as much as possible.

The chart is chiefly of value in describing the colors of medium-to fine-grained rocks but is also helpful in working with coarse-grained rocks. In describing very coarse-grained rocks, such as porphyritic gra nites, it is necessary to give the color of each mineral, and the chart is designed to cover the range of the chief rock-forming minerals such as feldspar, quartz, mica, and hornblende. If the rock is not too coarse- grained, a blending of the individual colors can be secured by spinning the specimen like a color disc or by looking at the rock from a short dis- - tance and thus getting a monotone which can be matched with the chips on the chart.

The number and range of colors on the Rock-color Chan are based on studies made by the Committee of more than 1300 selected rock specimens collected from the United States and Alaska. The colors of these rocks were plotted on Munsell charts and these charts served as a

basis for selecting the colors. The committee believes that the full range of rock colors is covered by the chart, except possibly for very rare rocks of high chroma. For most rock colors, the chart will serve for both wet and dry specimens. It was found by experiment that wetting the rock specimen merely decreases the value, that is, makes the speci men darker, but does not change the chroma. Accordingly, the Rock- color Chart Committee selected colors for the chart as far as possible in to the dark range in order to cover wet specimens as well as dry.

The Committee wishes to thank the many geologists throughout the country who contributed rock specimens and also those who contribu ted comments and suggestions. It also wishes to express its appreciation to Miss Dorothy Nickerson, of the United States Department of Agri culture, Mrs. B.R. Bellamy of the Munsell Color Co., and Dr. Deane B. Judd of the National Bureau of Standards for their wholehearted help and cooperation. The Committee hopes that the chart will attain wide usage among geologists and also that it will be useful to mineralogists, though the latterwfwHiave need of a much wider range of colors.
