Assessment of existing aerial magnetic surveys, was followed up by ground magnetic surveys over 19 linear aerial magnetic anomalies interpreted as BIF horizons within Early Proterozoic Hutchison Group. These BIFs and related chemical sediments were believed to be potential host rocks for stratiform lead zinc sulphide deposits. They were tested by 80 RAB drill holes which indicated that the horizons were gneisses of sedimentary origin, metaquartzites representing chemical sediments, including BIFs, and amphibolites. Concentrations of base metal and indicator elements were not anomalous.
