Stockdale's diamond exploration work included reconnaissance stream sampling, and photogeology and Landsat interpretation. Ground magnetic surveys were run over aeromagnetic anomalies interpreted from the previous nickel exploration (Mount Purvis) survey flown by Geometrics for Kennecott Exploration. Isopach maps of total Mesozoic sediment thickness, and geophysical data for a portion of a new aerial magnetic survey of the Arckaringa Basin, flown by Aerodata- McPhar, were compiled over the south-eastern corner of the licence: for the latter, magnetic, radiometric and VLF-EM data were acquired. Scattered kimberlitic indicator grains were recovered. Getty's exploration for sub-bituminous coal in the Permian Mount Toondina Formation of the Boorthanna Trough included a review of seismic reflection profiles shot within EL 1013. Planning is underway for detailed field investigations to support a mining feasibility study for the Weedina coal deposit (situated within EL 1168).
