ERL 116 Mount Porter Annual report September 1993 to 1994

Abstract

At 1.7g-t Au cut off grade, the mineral resource estimated for the Mt Porter Central zone was 21500t at 3.93 g-t Au. It is noted from the waste characterisation study that there may be a risk of acid rock drainage from Mt Porter. Studies completed as part of the feasibility study included an archaeological study and a terrestrial vegetation study. Numerous quarry sites and artefacts were found but none are immediately effected by the proposed pit location. The vegetation study showed no endangered-threatened species would be effected. Structural features reported include: Mount Porter anticline.
