Exploration for possible economic stratabound/hydrothermal copper and other base metal deposits in an area located on the northern margin of the Murray Basin, south-west of Yunta, failed to find evidence of diapiric breccia and did not reveal any significant geochemical anomalism from reconnaissance soil sampling carried out across previously recorded radiometric, lithological and magnetic features. The historically worked mineral occurrences within the licence were inspected and do not warrant further investigation. It was recommended that tenure be surrendered.
