Contains a summary log of diamond drillhole WP1, put down to a total depth of 654 feet over the "Wheat Paddock" aeromagnetic anomaly situated 5 km east of Brukunga and 8 km north of the Kanmantoo mine, plus data plots from prior surface geophysical surveys carried out on the surrounding ML 3711 in ?1973, which revealed anomalous IP effects also targeted by the drilling. A wide interval of quartz mica schist bedrock containing minor to massive interstitial magnetite plus coarse pyrite stringers was intersected below 230 feet driller's depth in the increasingly westwards-inclined drillhole, and this mineralisation explains the observed geophysical anomalies.
