EL 6800 Black Mountain Mt Todd District Final Report for Exploration Area Relinquished 29 May 1990 to 28 May 1999

Abstract

Stream sampling conducted in years 1, 2 and 3 obtained some gold anomalism ie, 22.5, 20, 17, 16.5 and 14.7 ppb Au. Initial soil sampling was done on a broad scale in years 3, 4 and 5 with some anomalism obtained ie. 15.7 ppb, 35 ppb and 23 ppb Au. A systematic soil sampling program was completed during the renewal periods with most sampling completed at 200 x 20m and/or 100m @ 20m spacing. This generated a broad zone of low anomalism 10-50 ppb extending for 2 kms and was tested by 5 RC holes. Most holes did not intersect significant anomalism except for hole 1. A detailed aeromagnetic survey was completed over the licence.
