Exploration for hidden copper-gold deposit mineralising systems, possibly genetically related to fractionated, high crustal level emplaced Cambro-Ordovician intrusives, has addressed an arcuate, 300 km long north-south and 50 km wide east-west segment of eastern South Australia extending between Bordertown, The Coorong, Murray Bridge, Morgan and Yunta. 22 aircore holes (total 2697 m) and 14 diamond-tailed rotary mud holes (total 2140.2 m) targeted discrete magnetic highs and possible alteration zones in the vicinity of Delamerian granites. The drilling intersected Truro Volcanics equivalents plus gabbros, granites and metasediments, but no large alteration or mineralisation systems were indicated.
