Annual report on EL 9569 and EL 9602, for the period 23 October 1998 to 22 October 1999

Abstract

The report details soil sampling programs designed to delineate further drilling targets. The results from the reconnaissance surface sampling returned very low gold anomalism (less than 2ppb), however they appear to coherrently outline anomalies for the infill sampling. Sampling over EL 9602 area resulted with gold anomaly coinciding with breaks within the north-north westerly trending magnetic high. Anomailism obtained over EL 9569 area appeared to be coherrent and coincide with major secondary north-west structures through the region. Four infill soil sampling programs were designed and the results obtained were encouraging. Results obtainedfrom program1 show a high of 1.1ppb Au with a north south trend over 25m width and 800m length. Results from program2 show a highs of 1.2 and 0.3ppb Au with a north easterly trend with coincidence of the two highs of 1.2ppb Au over 200m. Results from the program3 show highs of 1.6, 1.0 and 0.8ppb Au with coherency emerging in a north west trend (similar to the structure determined from the aeromagnetics survey). Further investigation is needed. During program 4 some highs of 1.9 and 1.7ppb were obtained with north west and north east trend. The results obtained from that sampling programs are promising and are worthy of on ground inspection.
