Abstract

This report summarises work that was carried out on the area by the JV partners during the reporting period 1991-1998. Work conducted by Aztec Mining Limited during the period of tenure has included literature research, data compilation, gridding, detailed geological mapping, detailed stream sediment sampling, gossan rock chip sampling, an EM geophysical survey and follow-up diamond drilling. Troy Resources carried out exploration prior to Aztec within EL 6391. They gridded areas of interest, geologically mapped and rock chipped gossanous areas and conducted a shallow RC percussion drilling programme to test the best targets. This work has revealed that the Coronet Hill area is geochemically highly anomalous. There is a metal zonation that can be recognised and areas with high base metals but low arsenic have been recognised. The EM geophysical survey located a number of discrete conductive anomalies, however drill testing the best one has revealed the source to be carbonaceous mudstone.
