Driffield claims annual report period ending 28 April 1989.

Abstract

Gold and tin mineralisation are hosted in sedimentary rocks of the Early Proterozoic Tollis Formation which consist of volcanolithic greywacke, tuffaceous material and siltstone. Three stream sediment samples within the tenements have defined an anomalous lead, tin, arsenic zone. Elevated gold values, relative to background, between 0.85 - 165 ppb Au also indicate a potential gold-bearing zone. In-fill stream sediment sampling is presently underway to further define the anomalous zones. A regional aeromagnetic and radiomagnetic survey was also flown over the Driffield Creek and Horseshoe Tin Field area. However, no magnetic response was recorded over the HCN's.
