Exploration of an area located in the south-eastern Kanmantoo Trough, 70 km north-west of Naracoorte, aimed to discover a giant stratabound sedex, skarn or sandstone-hosted silver-lead-zinc-copper deposit by drilling into previously untested stratiform and low amplitude or reversely polarised magnetic anomalies, that were being interpreted as possible pyrrhotite-rich metasediments associated with such forms of metalliferous deposit. Following this exploration concept, available magnetic data was re-interpreted with the objective of identifying previously untested drill targets considered prospective for the above-mentioned styles of mineralisation. Early in 2010 the licensee decided to surrender the ground, because its exploration priorities had shifted to other geological provinces.
