Year 1 Annual report, Corella Creek EL 28581, 12 September 2011 to 11 September 2012

Abstract

NRE's exploration rationale and objectives for its Corella Creek Prospect considered the evaluation of potential uranium and base metal mineralisation. Investigations were intended to locate any outcropping of mineralisation and any indicators of any sub-surface mineralisation within the tenement based on desktop reviews. Office-based studies have included desktop reviews of all previous exploration across the tenement, assessment of the geology, radiometrics, aeromagnetics, gravity and ASTER imagery within the Corella Creek Prospect during the first year of grant. NRE also attended the Alice Springs core library with a view to analysing water bore cuttings held at the library. NRE carried out both XRF and ALS Analysis of water bores located within the Corella Creek Prospect and the surrounding region. Not all water bores had cuttings available for testing however, NRE was able to test six (6) water bore cuttings within EL 28581. Office-based studies and analysis of cuttings have allowed us to delineate prospective areas for base metal and uranium mineralisation.
