CARRAPATEENA is hosted by strongly brecciated granitoid, variably foliated, sheared gneissic quartz-granite and quartz-diorite) dated at 1857±6 Ma and assigned to the Palaeoproterozoic Donington Suite. Regional setting is within the core of a NS-trending 30 x 100 km mass of granitoid overlain 10-15km to the W by ~1590 Ma mafic and felsic GRV. Cover is ~470m of flat lying Neoproterozoic sediment. Geophysical signature is a broad, weak and diffuse 200nT magnetic peak, and slightly offset, ellipsoidal, 3.5km diameter, 2 mGal gravity anomaly. The ore deposit occupies a NS-trending zone ~800 x 600 m at the unconformity surface with the underlying Palaeoproterozoic host rock.
