Liverpool Project EL 2855 Partial Relinquishment Report 25 July 2000 to 24 July 2005

Abstract

This report is the final report for exploration work undertaken on relinquished blocks within the Liverpool Project during the period 25 July 2001 to 24 July 2005. The tenement is part of a joint venture between Cameco Australia Pty Ltd (Cameco) and the Ngalangak Aboriginal Corporation Exploration activities included airborne magnetic and radiometric surveys, as well as a hyperspectral survey covering the exploration licence. Regional sandstone traverse sampling was conducted with samples being analysed for a suite of geochemical elements and PIMA clay determinations. Radiometric anomaly ground truthing failed to locate any significant anomalies, with most being attributed to element scavenging by lateritisation of the ferruginous units or Cretaceous sediments. Illite and kaolinite were the dominant clay mineral assemblages noted and is consistent with regional clays in the Gumarrirnbang and Marlgowa Sandstone Members of the Kombolgie Subgroup.
