Sixth annual report for EL 7834 'Tanami East', for the year to 21 March 2001

Abstract

This report details exploration activities and results obtained during the reporting period. Work was conducted over two areas northern and southern portion of the licence. A RAB drilling program was conducted in the northern portion following up anomalous RAB gold and arsenic results and anomalous results were returned in the order of 20-50 ppb Au and 70 - 100 ppm As. Soil samples were collected in the southern portion of the licence to follow up anomalous gold and arsenic results in soils. The results extended the gold anomaly to the edge of the licence boundary with best values of 1.0 - 1.7 ppb Au. There were no anomalous arsenic results. Three RAB holes were also drilled to assess the regolith conditions of the soil anomaly. Anomalous results were returned in bedrock of up to 55 ppb Au, 125 ppm As and 1.2 ppm Ag.
