Extract from MINFILE Nos.: 082LNW023, 082LNW021, and 082LNW024.
Name: ANNIS (MAIN), ANNIS 5,6,7,8, LARCH HILLS, ANNIS MINES, and LG.
Mineralization consists of massive to semi-massive sulphides made up of galena, sphalerite, minor chalcopyrite, pyrite and considerable pyrrhotite. Sulphide bands are found in biotite schist, usually with quartzite, and appear conformable to bedding. These bands vary from several centimetres to 1 metre wide. Locally, closely spaced sulphide bands occur over a 3 to 3.6 metre width.
Drillholes 11 and 12 in Pit L intersected a zone of mineralization 3.6 metres thick, in which individual sulphide bands 0.9 to 1.2 metres wide, assayed from 0.5 to 2.9 per cent combined lead-zinc (see Annis (Main), 082LNW021 - Prospectus, Annis Mines Ltd., May 4, 1966).
The main Annis showing (082LNW021) is developed by an adit 48 metres long and by several pits (A to J). Three southernmost trenches/pits (2, 3 and 6) comprise the Annis 11 showing (082LNW025), and are located 304 metres south of the adit. Trench 5, 122 metres north of the Annis 11 showing, comprises the Annis 5 showing (082LNW024). Three pits/trenches (K to M), about 182 metres north-northwest of the adit, comprises the Annis 8 showing (this description) (see Annis (Main), 082LNW021 - Sketch map of trenches, 1966).
