Combined annual technical report for period 2 April 2009 to 1 April 2010 EL 26287 Mount Denison and EL 26478 Western Creek

Abstract

Following the desktop review of previous exploration, open file data was assessed by consultant geophysicist, David Wilson, and an area was set aside for an AEM survey with the aim of identifying conductors within covered basement and/or palaeochannels. Toro undertook a brief reconnaissance field trip in August 2009. This involved foot traverses and rock chip sampling. A consistent high background was noted, suggesting natural high Th and U concentrations in the granites. This is consistent with the airborne radiometric data. No local increases in counts per second (CPS) were recognised, nor were any pegmatites or phosphatic bodies. Several rockchip samples were collected.
