Exploration work by BHPB was targeting magmatic Cu-Ni deposits (eg Voiseys Bay, Jinchuan) associated with post-tectonic, mafic-ultramafic intrusions in the Litchfield Province. The Litchfield Province is interpreted to be an extension of the Halls Creek Mobile Belt. Numerous small Cu-Ni prospects occur scattered along the Halls Creek Mobile Belt, with the best example being Sally Malay (Resource 3.74 Mt @ 2.2% Ni equivalent. Source: Open Briefing to ASX by Sally Malay Mining, January 2004). No on-ground exploration work has been carried out on EL 23146. An internal review of the project downgraded the Ni-Cu sulphide targets. Initial magnetic targets selected from desk-top studies were found (discovered during technical due diligence) to relate to pyrrhotite-bearing metasediments and not mafic-ultramafic bodies. Consequently, EL 23146 was surrendered, effective 7 March 2005. T2 - CR2005-0228 UR - https://geoscience.nt.gov.au/gemis/ntgsjspui/handle/1/73307 ER -
