An ore block, 91 metres long grading 29.14 grams per tonne gold over a 1 metre width, is believed to exist at the west end of the No. 3 level. 36,000 tonnes has been calculated for this zone $46,464,416 AU USD (AU @ $1200) The California deposit is located 4 kilometres south of Nelson. The vein has been developed on 3 levels by 650 metres of drifts, producing 1,462 tonnes from 1910 to 1949. A channel sample taken (CAFS-2) from level No. 2, in 1987, across parallel well mineralized quartz veins, 5 to 15 centimetres wide, and hosting sphalerite, chalcopyrite and possibly tetrahedrite in narrow bands and as patches or disseminated grains assayed 73.05 grams per tonne gold
The Union vein, several hundred metres north of California vein, is hosted in granodiorite. The vein dips at 15 degrees toward the volcanic contact and appears to be a tension feature. The vein, 0.3 to 0.8 metre wide, consists of white quartz hosting sparsely disseminated pyrite and sphalerite, similar to the California vein. Samples from the stope area have assayed up to 13 grams per tonne gold and 222.82 grams per tonne silver over a 0.3 metre width
The Cabin vein, Exchequer vein and Creek showing occur roughly along strike of the California vein. Sampling of the Cabin vein, 300 metres east of the California vein, assayed 8.98 to 26.43 grams per tonne gold across 1 metre (Property File - Christina Explorations Ltd., Prospectus, May 12, 1988). Sampling of the Exchequer vein, 50 metres west of workings, assayed up to 53.58 grams per tonne gold 1988). The Creek showing, 400 metres east of the California vein, assayed 2.88 grams per tonne gold and 375.02 grams per tonne silver across 1.3 metres (Assessment Report 11027).

A weighted average of 42 channel samples taken from the main vein in the upper adit yielded 14.88 per cent lead, 7.58 per cent zinc, 298 grams per tonne silver and 6.5 grams per tonne gold. The main vein within the upper adit has an average width of 40 centimetres and dips 48 degrees northeast. Mineralization is unevenly distributed throughout the vein with the higher grades being associated with pods of massive sulphides that appear to plunge to the north. Silver values are highest within the galena-sphalerite rich portions of the massive sulphide while gold is associated with pyrite in the lower portion of the massive sulphide ore shoot (see Noonday, 082KSW127 - Prospectus, Ambergate Exploration Inc., 1988).
In 1928, eight tonnes of ore were mined from the property to produce 6158 grams of silver, 2667 kilograms of lead, 1809 kilograms of zinc and 93 grams of gold.

The Llewelyn Fault Zone: A district-scale plumbing system analog to other pro...Stephan Bogner
Core Assets Corp. believes to be onto something big. And there‘s good reason to believe so: The Llewelyn Fault Zone (LFZ) runs through the company‘s recently vastly expanded property (now 148 km2) located in the Atlin Mining District of northwestern British Columbia (BC). The world-class porphyry-related copper-gold deposits in BC‘s prolific Golden Triangle typically share a highly important characteristic: Structure, such as a major fault zone acting as a plumbing system for a metal-enriched feeder zone at depth. With geophysics and subsequent drilling, Core Assets aims to make a major discovery by confirming the LFZ to be the main transport corridor for high-grade metals found on the property at surface.

The Llewelyn Fault Zone: A district-scale plumbing system analog to other pro...Stephan Bogner
Core Assets Corp. believes to be onto something big. And there‘s good reason to believe so: The Llewelyn Fault Zone (LFZ) runs through the company‘s recently vastly expanded property (now 148 km2) located in the Atlin Mining District of northwestern British Columbia (BC). The world-class porphyry-related copper-gold deposits in BC‘s prolific Golden Triangle typically share a highly important characteristic: Structure, such as a major fault zone acting as a plumbing system for a metal-enriched feeder zone at depth. With geophysics and subsequent drilling, Core Assets aims to make a major discovery by confirming the LFZ to be the main transport corridor for high-grade metals found on the property at surface.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

Institution:
VIIT Pune, India
Abstract:
This paper proposes a system to differentiate between human-generated and AI-generated texts using stylometric analysis. The system analyzes text files and classifies writing styles by employing various clustering algorithms, such as k-means, k-means++, hierarchical, and DBSCAN. The effectiveness of these algorithms is measured using silhouette scores. The system successfully identifies distinct writing styles within documents, demonstrating its potential for plagiarism detection.
Introduction:
Stylometry, the study of linguistic and structural features in texts, is used for tasks like plagiarism detection, genre separation, and author verification. This paper leverages stylometric analysis to identify different writing styles and improve plagiarism detection methods.
Methodology:
The system includes data collection, preprocessing, feature extraction, dimensional reduction, machine learning models for clustering, and performance comparison using silhouette scores. Feature extraction focuses on lexical features, vocabulary richness, and readability scores. The study uses a small dataset of texts from various authors and employs algorithms like k-means, k-means++, hierarchical clustering, and DBSCAN for clustering.
Results:
Experiments show that the system effectively identifies writing styles, with silhouette scores indicating reasonable to strong clustering when k=2. As the number of clusters increases, the silhouette scores decrease, indicating a drop in accuracy. K-means and k-means++ perform similarly, while hierarchical clustering is less optimized.
Conclusion and Future Work:
The system works well for distinguishing writing styles with two clusters but becomes less accurate as the number of clusters increases. Future research could focus on adding more parameters and optimizing the methodology to improve accuracy with higher cluster values. This system can enhance existing plagiarism detection tools, especially in academic settings.

California Location Access History Mineralization and Geology
California Location:
The California deposit is located 4 kilometres south of Nelson within the Nelson Mining division in
South-Central British Columbia. The property is located approximately 30 kilometers North of Salmo B.C.
and 30 Kilometers North-East of Castlegar British.
California Access:
The property was accessed from Harrison Hot Springs, British Columbia by way of Harrison Hot Springs
Road South to Highway 9 East to Hope, B.C. to Highway 3 East to Castlegar to Highway 3A North East to
Nelson to Highway 6 South 5 kilometers to access Rd West to property.
The access road west from Highway 6 was in good condition with regular vehicle access for 2 kilometers
then the road splits and access to the property by a rougher 4 by 4 road directly to the California lower
Adit site. From there, it was a short hike to the Exchequer, and the third and second levels.
California History: (Prospectus Report Delgrartia Developments 1991)
Since 1897 the property has been variously held and worked under a number of lease and bond
arrangements, however most operators have been unable or un willing to undertake a systematic
exploration programme of the property. The annual reports of the British Columbia Department of
Mines between 1897 - 1947 describe the early operations on the property.
In 1934 W1ddendon and Company left a record of underground sampling (refer to figure no. 5;
Longitudinal Section of the Callfomla Mine Area) which Indicates an ore block 91 meters long grading
0.85 ounces per ton gold over approximately 1 meter width remaining on the west end of No.3 level.
This ore block abuts a claim line (California/exchequer) and local prospectors suggest It wasn't mined
because of property and boundary disputes. Jones (1982) calculated a tonnage potential for this zone of
roughly 4O,CXX) tons above the NO.3 level. Recent work has provided access to this part of 1he
Callfomla Mine and assay data suggests that sampling by W1ddendon and Co. may have been somewhat
optimistic. Available data does however confirm that gold mineralization occurs along a strike length of
over 100 meters on this level.
In 1941 the Provincial government conducted a gold mine leasing experiment on the California which
Involved shipping of 75 tons of hand-sorted ore from areas above No. 1 level. Published records Indicate
that this shipment averaged 2.10 oz./ton gold. The property was subsequently purchased by Sheep
Creek Gold Mines In 1944 who leased the property to various parties, and eventually relinquished title.
In 1982 New Tyee Resources can1ed out a programme of surveying, mapping, and sampling on the
property. Mr. H Jones recommended that the No.3 Level drift be rehabilitated to provide access for
sampling and drilling.
10. 10
In 1987, Christina Explorations optioned the property, sampled accessible parts of existing underground
workings and commenced rehabilitation of the NO.3 Level drift of the Callfomla Vein. Results are
Included In a report by M. Magrum dated November 20, 1987. During 1988 Christina constructed a new
drift to bypass a badly caved stoped section and provide access to the remaining part of the No.3 Level.
On completion of this work the Company abandoned the property and no further work was carried out
until 1990.
During the late 1980's Pacific sentinel Resources and others carried out extensive surface exploration
and drilling of various prospects In the area of the Hillside Claim Group. Of particular Interest were soil
geochemical results which Identified several Prospective areas within Elise Formation volcanics. One of
the most significant of these areas Is the Toughnut Showing. Geochemical data showed co-incident
copper - gold geochemical anomalies (gold values of over 40 ppb and copper values greater than 100
ppm were considered anomalous). Later drilling of this anomaly resulted In the discovery of a
mineralized zone 26 meters wide averaging 0.044 oz/ton gold.
California Geology and Mineralization: MINFILE Number: 082FSW169
The California deposit is located 4 kilometres south of Nelson. The vein has been developed on 3 levels
by 650 metres of drifts, producing 1,462 tonnes from 1910 to 1949.
The area is underlain by schistose volcanics comprising augite basalt flows and flow breccias of the
Lower Jurassic Elise Formation, Rossland Group. These have been intruded by plagioclase porphyry of
the Jurassic Silver King Intrusions and granodiorite and quartz monzonite of the Middle to Late Jurassic
Nelson Intrusions.
The California occurrence comprises the California vein, the Deadwood vein, the Union vein, the Creek
showing, the Cabin vein and the Exchequer vein.
The California vein is hosted in andesite near the ganodiorite contact in a shear zone which strikes east
and dips 45 to 50 degrees south. The shear zone is up to 30 metres wide and hosts two parallel quartz
veins with graphitic andesite between them. The vein on the hanging wall, 0.5 to 1.0 metre wide,
contains the best sulphide mineralization and the footwall vein, rarely more than 0.3 metre wide, hosts
higher gold values. The veins touch or can be separated by up to 2 metres of altered rock. Mineralization
consists of quartz gangue containing significant pyrite with some galena, sphalerite, and free gold. The
quartz veins are strongly sheared with graphitic material on fracture and shear planes. The contacts with
the country rocks are heavily slickensided. Some enrichment of metal values was observed where
normal faults crosscut the vein-shear zone. Faulting, with movement of up to 1.2 metres, has been
observed in the workings. A channel sample taken (CAFS-2) from level No. 2, in 1987, across parallel well
mineralized quartz veins, 5 to 15 centimetres wide, and hosting sphalerite, chalcopyrite and possibly
tetrahedrite in narrow bands and as patches or disseminated grains assayed 73.05 grams per tonne gold
(Property File - Christina Explorations Ltd., Prospectus, May 12, 1988). An ore block, 91 metres long
grading 29.14 grams per tonne gold over a 1 metre width, is believed to exist at the west end of the No.
3 level. A potential tonnage of 36,000 tonnes has been calculated for this zone (Assessment Report
11027).
11. 11
The parallel Deadwood vein, which outcrops to the southeast of the California vein, comprises a zone of
numerous quartz stringers and veinlets hosted in a shear zone. The zone is approximately 75 metres
wide in pyritized and carbonate altered tuffaceous volcanics. Reports indicate significant but erratic gold
values were present.
The Union vein, several hundred metres north of California vein, is hosted in granodiorite. The vein dips
at 15 degrees toward the volcanic contact and appears to be a tension feature. The vein, 0.3 to 0.8
metre wide, consists of white quartz hosting sparsely disseminated pyrite and sphalerite, similar to the
California vein.
Samples from the stope area have assayed up to 13 grams per tonne gold and 222.82 grams per tonne
silver over a 0.3 metre width (Property File - Christina Explorations Ltd., Prospectus, May 12, 1988).
Samples taken in 1987 assayed between 0.41 to 4.5 grams per tonne gold with minor silver values
(Property File - Christina Explorations Ltd., Prospectus, May 12, 1988).
The Cabin vein, Exchequer vein and Creek showing occur roughly along strike of the California vein.
Sampling of the Cabin vein, 300 metres east of the California vein, assayed 8.98 to 26.43 grams per
tonne gold across 1 metre (Property File - Christina Explorations Ltd., Prospectus, May 12, 1988).
Sampling of the Exchequer vein, 50 metres west of workings, assayed up to 53.58 grams per tonne gold
1988). The Creek showing, 400 metres east of the California vein, assayed 2.88 grams per tonne gold
and 375.02 grams per tonne silver across 1.3 metres (Assessment Report 11027).

California 2013 Work Program
The purpose of the 2013 California exploration program was to validate and define the mineralization
occurrences within the property. Additional work was done to define accessibility of and to the
property. Prior to the field work, an investigation of information in the public domain relating to
previous work and mineral occurrences was carried out and a prospecting plan was developed.
Assessment and Minfile Review: A preliminary interpretation of the available information was
completed by reviewing the BC Department of Energy Mines and Petroleum Resources web site of
known showings (Minfile) and files of assessment work, additional research through the review of
documentation available through B.C. property files, and other resources were used to access and plan
the 2013 work program. There are many known occurrences in the area and it was determined that the
California and Exchequer occurrences would be the first sites visited.
Field Investigation: The 2013 California field investigation constitutes a preliminary survey of the Nelson
California property and area and involved sampling and assessment of workings and deposits referenced
in minfile accounts relating to the property in addition to evaluating the accessibility to the property by
roads and trails and by obtaining samples of hard rock (In situ) float boulder, and heavy minerals for
future geological survey work.
Werner Streicek a Prospector/ equipment operator, and logger with over 40 years prospecting
experience was assisted by his associate Rayanna Anderson who has worked with Werner on many
other related mining projects, an engineer from Nelson, and his Son in Law and grandchildren from
Alberta.
The physical work program took place from August 06 to August 13 2013. Additional technical, mapping
and report preparation was performed by John Bakus from August 05 to September 24 2013. August 06
and August 13 was spent mobilizing and travelling to and from the property from Harrison Hot Springs,
British Columbia by way of Highway 3 East to Nelson.
A vehicle was used to travel from Harrison Hot Springs B.C. to Nelson B.C. and then to and from the
California property as far as possible, then hiking on foot with equipment carried where needed. Roads
and trails were had drawn with general notes. Other development work was noted with rock samples
taken as appropriate. Notes were taken on terrain, watercourses, overburden etc with future
prospecting, geological mapping, geochemical and geophysical work in mind. Marking of sample sites
occurred with multiple photos taken of samples and areas of interest available upon request. General
GPS coordinates were taken, and all samples were recorded and logged. Mapping of the property was
done by way of Google, IMAP and Exploration assistant, and all data was compiled and sorted by use of
Excel. This data formed the template for this report.

Assay results from laboratory tests may be provided upon submission of a future technical report, and
geologist descriptions of Hard rock and Float boulders are pending. Sample information included in situ
hard rock (Adit), float boulders (Dump) and additional points of interest.
Equipment List:
Vehicle, chain saw, field tools , laptop, compass, clinometer, VHF radios, Spot GPS emergency locator,
bear spray, air horn, bags, tags, assorted markers, Etc.
Prospecting trip to California Mine 4.5 KM south of Nelson BC.

Arrived in Nelson August 07th
,2013 Assisted by Rayanna Anderson (Harrison Hot Springs)
Stayed at the Riverside Inn, for 3 days.
Travelled to” Giveout creek forestry road” West, which is the main access road to subject property and
reviewed entry and exit into property.
On August 08th Assisted by retired engineer (Nelson) and Rayanna Anderson (Harrison Hot Springs)
visited the property with a retired engineer, who is familiar with the area and also with the well known
California vein.
Located level 3, 2 and 1 Portals. Collected samples from all Levels near Portal entrance.
August 09th
, 2013 Assisted by Son and Grandchildren (Alberta)
visited property with three helpers. Revisited Level three, two, and one for more samples.
Then hiked on a fairly steep incline , North Westerly to the Exchequer Portal.
We then entered the drift for 220 feet and collected samples from the face of the old workings.
A three foot quartz vein crushed and micro fractured and well mineralized with sulphites
of iron, silver, lead and zinc.
August 10th
Assisted by Rayanna Anderson (Harrison Hot Springs)
explored the Gold Creek Forestry Road to find access from the south side to the Exchequer Portal, and a
parallel vein structure to the California vein.
