EL 27933 Wollunga Well First Annual report for period ended 27 October 2011

Abstract

Exploration within Rum Jungle Resources? Karinga Creek Lakes Project is targeting potassium, magnesium and sulfate-salts in salt lakes brines to eventually produce potassium sulfate and potassium magnesium sulfate (schoenite) fertiliser probably using solar evaporation ponds. EL 27933 is 80 km north and peripheral to the main project area. EL 27933 covers a palaeo-salt lake system, rather than an active lake as at Karinga Creek. The EL was pegged to target potash, other evaporites and possibly uranium. Angus Downs is an Indigenous Protected Area under Commonwealth legislation and this has delayed exploration to date. During the first year, a long awaited AAPA site survey was finally completed and the CLC were contacted twice, but no agreement has yet been reached. These delays have meant that no ground-disturbing work was possible in the first year.
