TARGET: Possible diamondiferous kimberlites, Olympic Dam style Cu-Au-U mineralisation, and base metals associated with chemosedimentary iron formations. EXPLORATION: Ground magnetic and gravity surveys, rock chip and loam sampling, and stratigraphic RAB (rotary air blast) drilling (46 holes totalling 1382 m) of BIF horizons, plus targeted RC (reverse circulation) drilling of magnetic anomalies (7 holes totalling 516.5 m), and one deeper percussion drill hole (depth 260 m) to find a magnetic source for the largest, A1 anomaly. RESULTS: Some sporadic elevated base metal values were encountered in the BIF drillholes, but no mineralisation of note. Due to the RC drilling rig's mechanical inability to reach deeper than expected basement depths, the results of kimberlite exploration were inconclusive.
