dc.description.abstractDuring 1975, a programme involving detailed geological mapping, soil geochemical sampling and diamond drilling was carried out along the Emu Fault Zone. This programme was part of a continuing exploration survey started in 1972. The aim of the survey is to investigate the potential for coarse-grained copper, lead and zinc mineralisation. Geological mapping led to the re-appraisal of an IP survey done in 1965, and another IP survey traverse was conducted over mapped area during the year. Drilling at Squib failed to locate any sulphide mineralisation, and the surface exposures are considered to be of limited extent. No further work is planned at that prospect.en_US

dc.description.geochemicalsamplingSoil and rock chip geochemical sampling was carried out in several areas along the Emu Fault Zone during the year. All samples were assayed for copper, lead and zinc by Mount Isa Mines Limited. The results of the sampling are discussed from north to south under the relevant 1:5000 sheet sub-headings in the annual report.en_US
