About the Jillewarra Project
The Jillewarra Project area is located between 50km and 75km west ‐ northwest of Meekatharra, within the Meekatharra Mineral Field in the Murchison Province of Western Australia. The project comprises two granted exploration licences, E51/1616 and E51/1617, and one granted prospecting licence P51/2868, which covers a large part of the highly prospective Mingah Hills greenstone belt. The project area is prospective for gold, nickel and base metals.
The Jillewarra Project incorporates a significant portion of the Archaean Mingah Greenstone Belt which has been folded into a broad south ‐ plunging anticline. ‐ High grade gold mineralisation has been identified by previous mining and exploration ‐ activities along the south western limb of the structure. Previous exploration within the Project area has identified gold and to a lesser extent copper mineralisation along the Jillewarra Shear Zone, a thrust fault plane at Zapata and along the Jillewarra ‐ Wardabie Shear. These targets have been partially explored with mineralisation identified to date remaining open in several areas.
Copper and nickel mineralisation has been identified within layered ultramafic/mafic sills and gold mineralisation occurs along the contact between the mafic/ultramafic rocks.
Three historic Gold Mining Centres - the Chesterfield, Jillewarra and Wardabie - occur within and/or adjacent to the Jillewarra Project area. The location of these occurrences is largely controlled by significant structural features, which transect the project leases.
The Jillewarra Project encompasses significant gold and base metal structural targets and layered nickeliferous ultramafic/mafic sills which remain to be fully explored. This provides an unique opportunity to systematically assess a significant area of under ‐ explored greenstone terrane.
Jillewarra Project Status
The Company acquired its rights to explore the Jillewarra Project on 15 September 2015, The Company has engaged the services of a consulting geologist to manage an initial 12 month exploration program for the Jillewarra Project. The consulting geologist has commenced a review of historical exploration data and is currently collating and compiling the information.
Pending the results of this review, the most prospective targets will be identified and followed up. Work will be recommended which will most likely consist of infill / followup MMI geochemical sampling. Pending favourable results, the Company will look to further enhance the most prospective geochemical targets with a targeted RAB/Aircore drilling program.
