In connection with the search for phosphate deposits a survey was carried out over portions of ORROROO and BURRA. Areas were selected for two purposes, firstly it was desired to test the equipment over known phosphate deposits, and secondly to investigate areas of anomalous radioactivity detected by airborne scintillometer. After consideration of the results some modifications have been carried on to the instruments, and more detailed surveys recommended in some areas.
