Exploration for base metals and uranium comprised the acquisition of aerial magnetic and radiometric surveys, gravity, ground magnetic, Sirotem and radon gas surveys, plus limited rock chip sampling, percussion drilling (448 holes totalling 9801 m) and diamond drilling (4 holes totalling 550 m). A trial INPUT survey of 109 line km was also flown. RESULTS: Significant hydrothermal copper with associated nickel, cobalt, silver and rare earth mineralisation was intersected near Weetulta, at the Hillview and Teatree Glen prospects.
