EL 9625 Upper Daly Project Final Report

Abstract

A total of 134 stream sediment samples were collected and analysed for kimberlitic indicator minerals. Chromites were recovered from 46 samples but were considered to be derived from the Antrim Plateau Basalts. In addition 3 samples recovered some grains of ilmenite. A singular microdiamond was recovered and was a fragment and is not considered to be locally derived. A small aeromagnetic survey was completed over part of the western portion of the licence. A review of this data located a small dipole magnetic anomaly which was further evaluated by a detailed small aeromagnetic survey and the collection of a loam sample which produced no indicator minerals of interest.
