TARGET: Possible undiscovered willemite mineralisation near the historic Beltana zinc mine. EXPLORATION: A detailed gravity survey of the mine area, and follow-up percussion drilling (2 holes totalling 150 metres) of the largest and highest magnitude anomaly not obviously associated with more dense rock or relatively elevated surface features. RESULTS: The results of drilling were negative, and therefore the other gravity anomalies mapped are no longer considered to be associated with massive willemite.
