COALBANK Developed New Interpretations
----- End of picture text -----
COALBANK re-evaluated the stratigraphy of the Tambo project area using advanced photogeology interpretation methods. This powerful tool clarified the stratigraphic position of many of the coal-bearing horizons identified from the waterbore dataset. It also revealed additional areas to target with field reconnaissance and exploration drilling.
