The subject EL areas are located adjacent to the Woomera Defence Area reserve, 800 km north-west of Adelaide. Exploration targeted stratiform base metal mineralisation of the sedimentary - exhalative or sabkha type, based on the McArthur River model, within the Cambrian carbonate and clastic sequence of the Tallaringa Trough near the Karari Fault Zone. Diamond drilling of 2 holes to 450 m did not intersect significant mineralization, although a pronounced barium and manganese association, averaging 340 ppm Ba and 390 ppm Mn, was noted. Regional correlation suggests that potential host rocks for base metal sulphides are better developed to the north-east towards Wilkinson 1, and that in the southern part of the area, target depths are considerably greater.
