A regional soil sampling programme across the Kanmantoo Group metasediments between Mt. Barker and Cape Jervis has been completed. One thousand two hundred samples were collected and analysed for Cu, Pb, Zn and As. Twenty five Cu, thirty one Pb, seven Zn and thirty four As values were found to be anomalous. It would appear that there has been a migration of metals, probably during the Delamerian Orogeny, to the syncline-anticline structure near Strathalbyn and this area would appear to offer the most potential for metal deposits within the area sampled. The statistical distribution of metals in the private phyllites and schists of the Brukunga Formation appear to be similar to the Inman Hill Formation.
