EL 235 Final report, Dorisvale area for the period 07-05-1972 to 06-05-1973.

Abstract

The area is around Bradshaw, Jinduckin and Bamboo Creeks and was previously explored by the same company under AtP 2545. It lies southeast of the old Collia tin workings. The geology is Cambrian limestone and deeply weathered Cretaceous cover. The west of the area also contains Antrim Plateau Volcanics and Proterozoic Waterbag Creek Formation. Previous work established percent levels of lead with elevated Zn and Ag in surface samples. Ironstone outcrops were also mapped. However, in view of the high cost involved for further exploration and lack of interest shown by potential farm-in partners, no further work is planned in the area.
