Exploration: Regional Reconnaissance Program
-
Objectives – generate new discoveries within the belt
-
Method – generate regional consistent datasets for:
-
1:10,000 or 1:5,000 detailed geological outcrop mapping
-
Regional advanced 3D modelling where appropriate
-
Soil Geochemistry – auger drilling targeting the calcareous horizon (best gold response) aimed at regenerating regionally consistent dataset
-
Detailed air magnetic survey
-
This process has already commenced:
-
Detailed geological outcrop mapping – Siberia, Davyhurst
-
Regional advanced 3D modelling – Siberia
-
Soil Geochemistry – Mulline
-
Ongoing budget commitment of approximately $1m per year
