EL 3258 MT GEE

Marathon Resources (ASX: “MTN”) has continued its exploration activities within EL 3258 including:-

  • Flying the entire tenement using a helicopter with a high resolution magnetic and radiometric system. This system recorded magnetic response and radiometric signals as “total count”, “uranium channel”, “potassium channel”and “thorium channel”. A total of 4,443 line kilometres were flown along northsouth flight lines spaced 25 metres apart.

  • Reading 125 gravity stations as infill to the 1,967 stations collected in November and December 2008.

  • Collecting 85 stream sediment samples in addition to the 473 samples collected in 2008. The 85 samples are awaiting assay.

  • Detailed geological mapping within the tenement.

Preliminary processing of the geophysical data has highlighted several features:-

The new detailed radiometric survey has detailed several uranium anomalies in addition to the known occurrences. (Figure 1).
