During the six months, the following exploration activities were undertaken:

Mooletar Project

A systematic review of the geology of Laconia’s projects and detailed geological mapping identified potential high-grade iron mineralisation along a 5.2km long strike length at the Mooletar Project, comprised of two thick parallel bands of Banded Iron Formation (BIF) mineralisation separated by a layer of thin BIF/Mafic rock types. Two distinct, separate high grade BIF units have been mapped over 5 kilometres at Mooletar .[1]

Barramine Project

Recently acquired geophysical data and interpretation from the Barramine Project has indicated a number of electromagnetic (EM) anomalies. A systematic sampling program was completed in September 2010. A total of 970 samples using various sampling media as defined from the geochemical sampling orientation survey conducted in May.

Detailed geochemical survey confirms potential for project to host significant base metal and gold mineralisation.

  • Potential mineralisation styles include; Mississippi Valley Type (MVT) base metal mineralisation, Volcanic associated (VHMS) base metals mineralisation, and epithermal gold-silver mineralisation.

  • Drill targets to be identified for planned drilling program to commence by end of Q2, 2011.

Extension of geochemical sampling grid completed in December 2010.[2]
