Shallow aeromagnetic targets in the vicinity of the Padthaway Ridge were investigated in the Sherlock area, 35 km east of Tailem Bend. Ground magnetic surveying follow-up, and a program of 41 rotary mud / diamond drillholes (respective total penetration 4150 m / 879 m) returned a base metals - mineralised intercept of 2.5 m @ 1.6% Zn and 0.6% Pb from 123 m depth, found within sheared and weakly altered metasediments. Strongly altered black slate was recorded at a similar depth, 3.7 km to the south-east. Results of surface and downhole EM surveys were adversely affected by a highly conductive overburden.
