This appraisal was carried out at the request of Mr. G.C. MacGregor, Manger of S.N. Rodda and Co. South Australia Pty Ltd. This company had secured an option to purchase an interest in the property for 14 days from Noarlunga Barytes Ltd, and at the time that this request was received by the writer the option had but three days to run. An extension of the option for seven days was obtained in response to the writer's request. In such a short time it was possible to do no more than a reconnaissance of the area and a search of previous reports and records. Mr E. Bradshaw, foreman at the mine, gave very valuable assistance in conducting a tour of the property and revealing his intimate knowledge of the workings (now largely inaccessible) and their history. Upon such fragmentary information is this appraisal based and it represents, therefore, no more than a geological opinion.
