Lookout Rocks South Prospect
-
Seven shallow reconnaissance aircore/RC over a structural target
-
Drilling confirmed Broadhurst Formation (Nifty host) stratigraphy
-
Broad intervals of moderate copper and lead anomalism strengthening to the east and towards the bottom of hole
-
Intense leaching of the regolith material indicates it may have been significantly depleted any primary copper mineralisation
-
Surface gossan with ex-sulphide boxwork textures identified to the east of drilling (assays pending)
-
Interpretation is that these initial reconnaissance results are significant and further drilling is required to test for the primary mineralised position at depth
