Mining Reviews 9548 and 9549 contain sand dunes migrating over outwash clays and gravels which rest on Archaean pegmatites and gneisses. Heavy minerals occur on the beach as the result of storm action and in the dunes as the result of wind concentration. Tonnage and grade are too small to warrant exploitation and mining would be difficult.
