Mount Gunson district. Geological mapping data, 1971-1972.
A mapping programme was undertaken by the licensees to test the possibility of the near-mine area to Mount Gunson being a suitable host environment for stratiform copper mineralisation. The exploration hypothesis used was that such mineralisation...-

Report on diamond drilling, February-March 1975, Gully area, Mount Gunson.
16 diamond drill holes tested the distribution and grade of copper mineralization occuring in the Woocalla shales. Drilling results suggest that no economically viable copper deposit exists in the Gully due to the low grade, high overburden and...-
