13 percussion holes (total 974.5 m) drilled over large gravity anomaly intersected a granular amphibolite containing variable magnetite, which probably represents an original, intermediate igneous pre-Kimban intrusive. It is of higher density than the local Hiltaba Granite, and the presence of magnetite explains the magnetic anomalies. Only minor pyrite was observed, and assay values were uniformly low.
