Title: | Annual report on exploration activities for EL 10072 'Waterloo', year one of tenure, 11th April 2003 to 10th April 2004 |
Title Holder / Company: | Gravity Capital Diamond Mines Australia Ashton Mining |
Report id: | CR2004-0236 |
Tenure: | EL10072 |
Year: | 2004 |
Abstract: | EL 10072 forms part of a farmin agreement between Rio Tinto Exploration Pty Ltd and Diamond Mines Australia Pty Ltd. Under this agreement, DMA will conduct predominantly diamond exploration over the tenements and will utilise the newly-developed Falcon(tm) airborne gravity gradiometer system, to detect kimberlite pipes. Gravity Capital Ltd is managing the farmin arrangement for Diamond Mines Australia and owns 40% of DMA. During the initial year of tenure, a review of historic exploration data, including surface sampling focussed on diamonds, was conducted by Gravity and a number of anomalous results were noted in and around EL 10072. Owing to the timing of the exploration agreement between DMA and Rio Tinto (late July 2003) field exploration under the agreement did not extend to EL10072 during the 2003 field season. Field work is planned to commence during the 2004 field season. |
