This tenement was procured by WMC for an attempt to locate buried strata of the Lower Permian Mount Toondina Formation of the Arckaringa Basin, and to determine if they are coal-bearing, in the area to the south-west of the Wilkinson Lakes. However, drilling of 7 percussion/RC open holes totalling 452 m failed to disclose any coal, and palynological analyses of drill cuttings were inconclusive regarding the stratigraphic age of the sequence penetrated.
