EL 9371 Mordor Pound No.2, First Annual Report for year ending 6 January 1996

Abstract

A variety of geophysical techniques including helimagnetics, ground magnetics, GEOTEM, and IP were utilised to determine the presence of any conductors etc and help define the structure of the Mordor Alkaline Igneous Complex. Other work undertaken consisted of 2 diamond and 4 RC holes, 22 rock chip samples and 155 soil samples. The rock chip sampling and mapping identified a small ironstone in Shokinite which returned elevated Cu, Ni +/- Au. A maximum assay of 0.73% Cu, 0.21% Ni and 0.18ppm Au. The ironstone has been given the prospect name Braveheart. Soil sampling about the ironstone revealed limited disposition. The contact with the Mordor Igneous Complex was also sampled and some areas of anomalous Cu +/- Ni were outlined. Diamond drilling as follow up at Brave Heart returned a best result of 30m at 0.25% Cu and 401ppm Ni including 1m at 1.4% Cu, 0.3% Ni, 0.1ppm Au and 0.4ppm PGE.
