An area centred ~45 km south-west of Tarcoola is being explored for possible buried epithermal/hydrothermal copper-gold and magmatic copper-nickel-PGE mineralisation which could have formed within Archaean and Proterozoic basement rocks. During the first and second licence years, no work was done. During the third licence year no on-ground exploration work was undertaken. Vale’s efforts were focused on compiling and acquiring data in preparation for future exploration efforts, which included geology/geophysics historic data compilation, core inspection at the Core Reference Library, and the acquisition of SPOT6/SPOT7 satellite imagery.
