Airborne magnetic / radiometric and ground magnetic surveys were conducted west of Woomera to detect possible kimberlitic pipes. Aircore/RC drilling of a dipolar aeromagnetic anomaly situated on the edge of an interpreted buried Gairdner Dyke (2 holes, total 143 m) intersected mafic rocks having high magnetic susceptibilities but which lacked anomalous metal values. Gravel sampling over aeromagnetic anomalies east of Koolymilka yielded two microdiamonds and numerous kimberlitic indicator grains. No new targets emerged from an airborne electromagnetic survey of this area.
