Portions of an exploration licence situated at the southern end of the Denison Range, north-east of Edward Creek township, have recently been relinquished due to their perceived diminished potential to contain buried IOCG style or other economic metallic mineralisation. The targeted basement and overlying cover rocks here lie at the northern end of the Peake and Denison Inliers, which comprise a series of outcropping north-west orientated fault-bounded wedges of Palaeoproterozoic metamorphic basement rocks (Peake Metamorphics), intruded by granitic and mafic rocks of Palaeoproterozoic and Mesoproterozoic ages emplaced immediately adjacent to the eastern margin of the Gawler Craton. No work has been carried out on the subject relinquished ground during Years 6-9 of tenure (as current EL 4308). However, work conducted on this ground by Red Metal under previous title of EL 3227 included: - shallow RC percussion drilling during December 2006 for testing the uranium potential of Mesozoic sandstones; - flying of part of a heliborne EM survey during September 2007; and - acquisition of part of a detailed gravity survey during December 2007. The licensee has indicated that no explicit subsets of EM and gravity geophysical data will be offered at this relinquishment, owing to the small areal extent of the surveyed portions involved. [Note: it is intended that DMITRE will release all of the >5 years old exploration data for Red Metal's prior EL 3227 late in 2014, under the provisions of the Mining Act Sunset Clause. Both the related drillhole and geophysical entire data sets will become open file then.]
