Annual report for EL 22506 period ending 22 May 2004

Abstract

Exploration within the current year of tenure (23 May 2003 to 22 May 2004) involved a second pass interpretation of magnetic data. One magnetic anomaly within EL 22506 was highlighted for further follow up. Universal Tracking Systems were contracted to acquire 50 m line spaced data at 25 m terrain clearance over this anomaly, and also three anomalies selected on second pass interpretation within EL 23415. A total of 119 line km were flown over the four anomalies on the 5th May 2004 of which 35 line km were over EL 22506. A small ground magnetic survey was also undertaken on EL 22506 over a feature of possible interest selected from 200 m line spaced data. A total of 18 line km of data were acquired at 25 m line spacing. Based on the resultant data, this feature is believed to be of little interest and warrants no further work. An Aboriginal site clearance programme was conducted prior to a sampling programme being undertaken in April and early May 2004 and mainly over tenements EL 23415 and EL 22506. The sampling programme, on EL 22506, involved the collection of 32 stream samples and 21 loam samples.
