Geological report on ATPs 1638 and 1639, Roper Bar

Abstract

Following the relinquishment of Authority to Prospect No. 1436 (Roper Bar) two small areas were applied for as Authorities to Prospect on which it was proposed to undertake more detailed investigation. These were duly investigated in more detail and eventually relinquished in turn. The Kookaburra Creek Formation which outcrops in these two areas was the main objective of the work and detailed traverses and sections undertaken on this formation are described in the report submitted at the time of relinquishment of Authority to Prospect No. 1436. Reference should be made to this report for these details. It was concluded that ATPs 1638 and 1639 do not have sufficient economic potential to warrant further work.
