The Wawa gold corridor is an area to the east of Wawa, Ontario that is being explored for gold by Red PineExploration Inc. The corridor has been the site of numerous small gold mines in the past, but holdsconsiderable potential for further development. The type of gold deposit in this area is similar to many in otherparts of Canada and the questions faced by Red Pine are typical of those for other exploration companies, themost important of which is why gold grades are high in some areas and low in others. This research willaddress that question by examining the rocks in the Wawa gold corridor and assessing the reasons for goldenrichment using a variety of types of chemical analysis. These investigations will help Red Pine focus theirexploration efforts on areas that have favourable characteristics for enhanced gold grades and will allow themto more effectively utilize the geochemical data that they routinely collect. The Wawa system has someunusual characteristics compared to many other similar gold systems and the research will understand thesignificance of this and the potential implications for other deposits in Canada.

瓦瓦黄金走廊是安大略瓦瓦东部的一个地区，红松树勘探公司正在勘探黄金。该走廊过去曾是许多小型金矿的所在地，但仍有相当大的进一步开发潜力。这一地区的金矿存款类型与加拿大其他地区的许多金矿相似，赤松面临的问题与其他勘探公司的问题一样典型，其中最重要的是为什么有些地区的黄金品位高，而另一些地区的黄金品位低。这项研究将通过检查瓦瓦金矿走廊的岩石，并使用各种类型的化学分析评估金矿富集的原因来解决这个问题。这些调查将有助于赤松集中他们的勘探工作的地区，具有有利的特点，提高黄金品位，并将使他们能够更有效地利用地球化学数据，他们经常收集的瓦瓦系统有一些不寻常的特点相比，许多其他类似的黄金系统和研究将了解thesignificance的这一点和潜在的影响，其他矿床在加拿大。
