Kings Bluff. Progress reports to licence expiry/full surrender, for the period 3/3/1988 to 6/6/1988.

Created: 12 Nov 2024 Revised: 12 Nov 2024

Hallmark Gold's Manna Hill Gold Project comprises EL 1436 and ELA 295/87. The area under licence covers many old gold mines including the Aurora Australis, Birthday, Nectar, No Gammon, Trojan, Odd Trick, Euro, Klondyke and Royal Charlie gold prospects. Several earlier phases of gold exploration have been carried out by others in this general area, and have provided drilling and geological data which has been reviewed by a consultant to the present licensee. The aim of the investigation was to identify possible economic Telfer style gold mineralisation within faulted and folded Late Proterozoic metasediments in the vicinity of the historic gold workings. Drilling that was done by CRA Exploration on the Nectar / No Gammon zone showed anomalous gold in 10 of the 11 holes drilled. On the Royal Charlie prospect, rock chip sample assay values of up to 58 g/t Au were recorded by Western Mining Corp. over a 200 m strike length of a quartz-gossan unit in the Tarcowie Siltstone. A significant soil geochemical anomaly, to 97 ppb Au, also delineates this zone.
