As part of a regional search for economic small-scale deposits of rare earth metals in the Mount Painter district, geochemical prospecting revealed several atypically high background niobium values, in stream sediments derived from watercourses known to be draining across pegmatites, which were confirmed by rock chip sampling. Niobium values to 195 ppm and tantalum to 20 ppm were obtained from samples of a pegmatite at Mount Pitt.
