Bynoe Joint Venture final report on EL 6632, Cox Peninsula, NT

Abstract

This report summarises the results of exploration carried out on EL 6632 in the period from 7-11-1989 to 9-01-1991 when the tenement was surrendered. The area has been explored in the past for the tin-tantalum mineralised pegmatites as well as the tin and tantalum mineralised ancient alluvials. During the reporting period, a ground reconnaissance programme was carried out through the tenement area with the objective of locating any mineralised pegmatite depodits. The rare outcrops of the Burrel creek formation and several excavator trenches and dozer cuts from previous exploration were observed. A review of previous exploration in the area was completed. These results together with the results from the field investigation gave little encouragement, and the licence was surrendered.
