Abstract: | This Final Technical Report documents the 2007/2009 exploration program conducted at the Ethel Creek Gold prospect (EL 25382) by United Orogen Ltd (UOG) formally Uranium Oil & Gas Ltd. UOG has an agreement with the tenement holder Bralich Holdings Pty Ltd whereby it can earn 70% by spending the minimum of 2 years expenditure. UOG is the tenement operator and spent the required amount. The Ethel Creek prospect is located on the southwest Arunta block 370 km WNW of Alice Springs NT. Previous explorers in the area have delineated a significant soil anomaly over 3km in length, highest soil assays was 31 ppb Au with shallow follow up drilling returning a maximum assay of 43.9 ppb Au. There are no known mines or resources established in the area. UOG's first year activities included literature research, field reconnaissance, soil sampling, rock chip sampling, a ground checking some radiometric granites, GIS database and drafting. Results to date have been encouraging. UOG planned to drill test the soil anomaly during 2008. However the better areas of the soil anomaly have been deemed to be of significance to the Aboriginal Tribal elders of the locality and have not been given clearance to drill. No drilling took place during the year. GIS database upgrades continued and a trip to site was aborted due to bad weather. The size of the tenement was halved at the end of Year 2. The tenement was maintained but a joint venture partner was not found. There was no change in the circumstances and the tenement was surrendered. |
