The Kangarilla lead mine, situated on section 796, Hundred of Kuitpo, is enclosed by the Stonyfell Quartzite (Proterozoic Age). Lead mineralisation occurs in a narrow near vertical joint or fault of average width 2 inches and strike length over 200 feet. The lead occurs as galena and cerussite in bunches comprising from 20 to 70% of the vein material. No thicker portions of the vein as mined are anticipated and if parallel veins to the north or south exist they would probably be no wider. No further exploration is warranted.
