Exploration within an area of outcropping Adelaidean sediments located 80 km north-east of Hawker targeted possible stratiform copper-gold mineralisation in dolomitic sediments, as at Martins Well and Willippa Dome, and cobalt-nickel(-copper) concentrated by weathering and by geochemical scavenging into manganese wad. The collection and assaying of fifty-five rock chip samples from sites distributed across the tenement showed that metal values are not sufficiently elevated, nor are the manganese wads sufficiently abundant, to form the basis of a mining operation.
