EL 27250 Beatrice East Annual report 9 December 2014 to 8 December 2015

Abstract

In 2015 a field reconnaissance trip to the northern portion of the tenement was conducted to establish the feasibility of a SAM survey to help define sub Kombolgie stratigraphy. The aim of the reconnaissance was to find potential electrode pit locations. Ideally pits would be located in proximity to basement stratigraphy, however only sandstones and occasional fine grained dolerites intruding the steep sided sandstone valleys have been recorded. Additionally the option of utilising the historic drill hole for a down-hole probe also proved untenable. It has been theorised that basement penetrating structures observed in the sandstone could also be utilised for pit locations however no suitable such structures are recorded on this tenement. Fixed loop Electromagnetic's has now been trialed on the Tin Camp Creek project, with the advantage that pits are not required. Initial results from this data have been disappointing in sub Kombolgie application however Alligator is working with GAP Geophysics to enhance processing techniques. If this data can be refined then this technique may be suitable for deployment on EL 27250.
