Mount Woods. Combined first progress/final report at licence full surrender, for the period 6/9/1979 to 5/12/1979.

Created: 28 Oct 2024 Revised: 15 Dec 2024

Author: Pedler, A.D.

Following an evaluation of existing subsurface data, 9 vertical percussion holes totalling 670 m were drilled to test discrete gravity anomalies in the Mount Woods area, in a search for Olympic Dam type mineralisation. The holes encountered magnetite-bearing basic intrusive and granitic and metamorphic basement rocks, without disclosing significant mineralisation or giving encouragement for further exploration for such targets.
