Partial relinquishment report on EL 24928, Ngalia Project, 19 October 2012

Abstract

During the term of these relinquished bocks, a desktop study of the project area was undertaken. It involved retrieval of previous exploration data from archive repository, and interpretation of geological, structural and geophysical data. In a collaborative study of the Ngalia Basin covering the project area was undertaken in order to understand basin architecture, utilising high resolution geophysics, geochemistry, sedimentology, mineralogy and petrology. This research program has added much to our understanding of uranium mineral system which will help to devise better exploration strategies. An assessment of the relinquished area revealed that it has no mineral potential, and therefore 6 blocks were surrendered.
