Exploration licence 9458, final report

Abstract

7/6/99: 195 heavy mineral stream sediment samples were collected during the first year of tenure - most samples contained an abundance of chromites derived form the Antrim Plateau volcanics. However, two chromites were considered anomalous and were followed up by an additional 21 stream samples collected; again chromites thought to be of interest were recovered and a further 41 samples collected - 1 sample contained a high interest chromite. As no other kimberlitic minerals, nor a definitive trail of anomalous chromites was indicated, it was recommended that the licence be surrendered.
