In 2014, a 2200m borehole was drilled at Afton Township where the anomaly is at its maximum. Analysis of the lowest most rocks indicated similarities with the quartz diorite dykes found at the

The Temagami Magnetic Anomaly is egg-shaped, 58 km (36 mi) long and 19 km (12 mi) wide. The central section has the greatest amplitude and an east–west strike.

The western portion appears smoother in character while the eastern section is long and narrow. With an areal extent of 50 x 15 km, it reaches a magnitude of approximately

The Temagami Magnetic Anomaly was first found in the late 1940s during a magnetic survey by Norman Bell Keevil.
