Basal Umberatana Group glacial tillitic sedimentary sequences and upper Burra Group interglacial arenaceous sediments were explored for possible economic stratabound gold mineralisation in an area located about 20 km east of Burra. In the main the search emphasis was for hydrothermal gold in quartz veins associated with stratal dilational zones developed near the hinges of regional synclinal folds and inferred related thrust faults. Calcrete sampling (228 samples) and limited rock chip sampling (28 samples) identified two areas having elevated base metals within calcrete that has formed in the surficial weathered upper layers of Adelaidean units. Isolated elevated gold to 2 ppb Au was also recorded.
