Comprises details of the operations, field acquisition, results and interpretation of the seismic and gravity survey. A total of 1360 km of seismic reflection were recorded; 5676 gravity readings were made corresponding to 2327 new stations. The survey began with a reconnaissance program followed by semi-detailed investigations in the NE part of the tenement. From the information obtained it was possible to map the Z unconformity and to determine the thickness and extent of a Permian basin. Several Permian structures with potential drilling sites were identified. A Devonian basin was delineated in the NW of the survey area. Gravity results confirmed the seismic interpretation.
