No significant mineralisation was intersected at South Breccia in diamond drill hole DLY9. Basic igneous rock and dolomite outcrops in and around the diapir have been re-examined and rock-chip sampled. The basic igneous rocks have been divided on grain-size into two types, microdiorites and diorites. The diorites are closely associated with copper mineralisation, and contain up to 12 times the copper content of the microdiorites. Wagon drilling of two diorite intrusions is recommended. Further investigation of zinc-rich Burra Group dolomites located south of the Avondale mine is also recommended.
