Upper) drill pad setup at northwest margin of Westwood Complex for Hole 004. (Lower) Megacrystic amphibole with pale interstitial melt segregations and local sulfide has been intersected in the top 30m of WW24-004 on the west margin of the Westwood intrusive complex. The rock is similar in texture to the mineralized highway showing and the mafic-ultramafic interval dominating Hole 002 some 800 m away. The coarse and elongate crystal habits of amphibole are characteristic of this rock unit and suggest a ‘quenching’ process during crystallization of an immiscible fluid, which is commonly targeted in exploration for magmatic sulfide mineralization in Ontario.
