The southern two sub-blocks of a tenement area bordering the south-eastern Gawler Ranges, which is considered prospective for finding buried hypogene IOCG mineralisation and possible stratiform and metamorphic base metals in a peri-volcanic basement environment, have recently been relinquished. The only work done on them, which took place between 2006 and 2009, has been regional reconnaissance soil sampling for a range of epithermal pathfinder elements, with 307 samples collected and assayed from a 1 km x 1 km grid. Some closer-spaced sampling was done in the Salt Creek locality to follow-up initial anomalous indications, without success. Because the soil sample base and precious metal values were generally low, it was decided that the rest of the now relinquished ground did not warrant any infill sampling or other exploration.
