Exploration for graphite and base metals in the Uley - Mikkira region, south-west of Port Lincoln, comprised an aerial INPUT / magnetic / radiometric survey, with ground EM34-3, magnetic, SP and IP surveys to follow-up INPUT responses. 4 EM anomalies were drilled (7 holes totalling 433 m), with best intersections of 20 m @ 3.6% carbon, 20 m @ 2.4% carbon, and 4 m @ 0.15 ppm Au recorded at anomaly M10. None of the drillhole samples returned significant base metal values.
