A review has been carried out by Amdel Ltd, under contract to the licensee, of the applicability and suitability of low-cost geophysical reconnaissance tools in prospecting for concealed talc occurrences in the Mount Fitton area. It appears that use of such methods has previously scarcely been applied anywhere in the world to the search for non-metallic or industrial minerals. Technical enquiries were made into the relevant acquisition and interpretation aspects of infra-red photography, spectral reflectivity, magnetic susceptibility, specific gravity, self-potential, electrical resistivity, seismic velocity and thermal conductivity, both in the laboratory and in the field. As well, a great deal of very detailed information about the mode of occurrence of known worked and unworked talc deposits at Mount Fitton was gathered and documented. The conclusions made from this project are that none of the methods studied is directly of use in exploring for talc in the Mount Fitton area, and none provides a viable alternative to the present exploration techniques of bulldozing or drilling talc outcrops.
