TARGET: Exploration in the Minnipa - Kyancutta region for uranium in Recent lake sediments, heavy mineral sands in Tertiary palaeochannels, base and precious metals in basement rocks, and diamonds associated with possible kimberlitic intrusions. EXPLORATION: Aerial magnetic and radiometric surveys, helicopter radiometric traverses, image processing and reinterpretation of the 1988 SADME / BMR aerial geophysical survey, rock chip and loam sampling, ground magnetic, IP and gravity surveys, and drilling (106 RAB holes totalling 1707 m, 67 reverse circulation holes totalling 1599 m, 3 percussion holes totalling 445 m, and 2 diamond drill holes totalling 277 m). RESULTS: Trace ilmenite and zircon were recorded in Tertiary sand units. Elevated gold assay values recorded in the samples from two drillholes at the Mambrae prospect were not substantiated by subsequent re-assaying.
