EL 10189 Partial relinquishment report 23 July 2002 to 22 July 2012

Abstract

Exploration activities that have been undertaken in the relinquished area of EL 10189 include 11 HMA samples taken in the 2004-2005 reporting period, along with 69 geochemical samples. These samples were collected as follow-up of a number of airborne geophysical anomalies. All results suggested they were not related to kimberlite intrusive. One HMA sample was also collected in the 2011-2012 reporting period. This sample was collected in an area reporting historic positive samples and was aimed at recovering chromite for mineralogical assessment. Results were disappointing suggesting a kimberlite intrusive is not the likely source of the historic results.
