EL 26562 Renner Springs Project, Annual (Year 5) and Final Technical Report 2 September 2008 to 31 July 2013

Abstract

A regional aeromagnetic and radiometric geophysical survey was flown in year one and reprocessed in year two. Interpretation of the data indicates the western half of the original EL area hosts Helen Springs Volcanic rocks beneath alluvium. A program of detailed aerial photography was conducted over the eastern half of the original EL, dominated by outcropping units belonging to the Renner Group, and regional mapping at 1:20,000 scale was undertaken during year two. No manganese mineralisation was identified on EL 26562. There was no exploration activity in Year 5. EL 26552 had been reduced from the original 73 blocks granted in 2008 to 6 blocks by 2012. It was concluded that the remaining 6 blocks were no longer considered prospective for manganese mineralisation and were recommended for surrender prior to the end of Year 5.
