TARGET: Possible epithermal or stratabound base metal deposits within Proterozoic volcanic rocks or older Carpentarian sediments, respectively. EXPLORATION: Acquisition of an airborne magnetic and radiometric survey, with follow-up ground magnetic, EM and gravity surveying over 38 line km, plus geological mapping at 1:40,000 scale, and the targeted drilling of 2 percussion holes to 240 m and 245 m respectively. RESULTS: Hole BD1 intersected the lower sequence of the Gawler Range Volcanics, and hole JD1 intersected probable Willochra Subgroup (Yudnapinna Beds), Pandurra Formation and lower Gawler Range Volcanics. The resulting subsurface sample assay results do not appear in this Envelope (due to late submission).
