AB  - Exploration activity in 2011/2012 included office studies, Geoeye-1 satellite imagery and a site field visit by exploration staff in September 2012. The site visit established logistical issues, verified local geology and checked for surface manganese exposures. Inspection of EL 28627 revealed mostly barren sandstone, though minor manganese nodules were observed in adjacent flat laying manganiferrous pisolite-laterite outcrops. The small extent of EL 28627 (2 blocks) and dominance of sandstone outcrop limits the potential for the discovery of significant manganese mineralisation. More detailed site inspection is required to follow up the manganese mineralisation recently observed in the area adjacent to the east boundary of the licence. Recent application for three new exploration licences, located in the surrounding area, warrants that EL 28627 be retained in the short term while assessment of the newer applications proceeds.
