As part of a regional search for possible economic buried Cambrian stratabound lead-zinc mineralisation, anomalous bedrock zones defined by aerial magnetic, radiometric and INPUT surveys and by stream sediment sampling were followed up with soil and rock chip sampling and the conduct of, variously, ground magnetic, several sorts of EM (TEM, CSAMT, GEM8, Pulse, UTEM, Sirotem, Mise a la masse), IP and SP surveys. Two prospects were rotary percussion drilled (5 holes totalling 704 m), with best assay values of 18 m @ 0.2% Zn and 2 m @ 0.85% Cu being returned from the Woodchester and Reservoir prospects respectively.
