The year that was......project review
-
Warda Warra – tested and exited
-
Western Shaw – sold
-
Eelya Hill – access issues
-
Kanandah – just drilled
-
Dempster – geochem ongoing
==> picture [264 x 381] intentionally omitted <==
Warda Warra Project – Sulphide Nickel
==> picture [320 x 426] intentionally omitted <==
VTEM – right tool, cost effective
-
screened the greenstone belt
-
no conductors hosted by ultramafics
Downgraded Ni sulphide potential
==> picture [176 x 234] intentionally omitted <==
Warda Warra Project – Sulphide Nickel
==> picture [293 x 221] intentionally omitted <==
Conductors detected, but...
-
hosted by basalts
-
associated with narrow steep quartz
-
sulphide veins
Likely to be small and sub‐economic

- to end of hole
New zones of laterite Ni mineralisation discovered, but...
-
Thin clay zones
-
All < 1% Ni
Low‐grade & limited tonnage potential

Western Shaw Project – Iron
==> picture [363 x 429] intentionally omitted <==
-
Hematite zones located, but... • mostly narrow zones
-
• high silica content
-
• sub‐ore grades
-
Unlikely to host large tonnages of iron ore
==> picture [322 x 243] intentionally omitted <==
Kanandah Project – Base Metals
Gravity – right tool, cost effective
-
screened large area of prospective host rocks
-
four priority targets selected for drill‐testing

Five holes drilled (944 m)
-
no visible base metal mineralisation
-
localised pyrite development (up to 5%)
Awaiting assay results
Dempster Project – Gold
==> picture [721 x 262] intentionally omitted <==
Calcrete Geochemistry – right tool, cost effective
• regolith well understood
• < 20 m to basement
Dempster Project – Gold
890 calcrete samples
- large low‐level gold anomalies detected
