A large area in the South-East, extending from Karoonda to Keith, was considered prospective for the accumulation of heavy mineral sand deposits. Exploration, carried out jointly on several contiguous Exploration Licences, comprised an initial review of available data, followed by vertical aircore drilling, mainly as traverses along roadside verges. Thirty three open holes were completed in the now surrendered areas for 824 m total penetration. Minor and sporadic low grade heavy mineral placer concentrations were encountered, but their assemblages were dominated by non-economic "trash" minerals such as tourmaline, goethite and alumino-silicates.
