dc.description.abstractExploration License EL 24807 is part of the Ngalia Regional Project which immediately surrounds the Bigrlyi project (ERL's 46 to 55 inclusive) located 390 kilometres (by road) northwest of Alice Springs. The Ngalia Regional Project is 100% owned by Energy Metals Limited and the Bigrlyi Project is a Joint Venture between Energy Metals Limited with 53.3% (operator), Valhalla Uranium (a subsidiary of Paladin Resources Ltd) with 41.7% and Southern Cross Exploration NL with 5%. Uranium mineralisation was discovered at Bigrlyi by a joint venture managed by Central Pacific Minerals (CPM) in 1973. In the period 1974 to 1982 the project was subject to several major drilling campaigns, with some 413 holes (total 37,500m) completed. Subsequent to 1982 CPM completed metallurgical testing and resource calculations, with a global resource of 809,000 tonnes at 3.43 kg/t U3O8 for 2,770 tonnes of contained U3O8 delineated at Bigrlyi (note that these resources are not JORC 2004 compliant). Field activities conducted in the period 1983 to 2004 were limited to maintenance of the core shed. In May 2005 Energy Metals acquired a 53.3% interest in, and assumed management of, the Bigrlyi project through the purchase of the interests of CPM and Yuendumu Mining Company NL. In September 2005 Energy Metals listed on ASX after raising $3m, primarily to fund exploration at the Bigrlyi and Ngalia Regional Projects. Exploration undertaken in the period 14 August 2006 to 13 August 2007 on the Bigrlyi and Ngalia Regional Projects included: - Re-establishment of the exploration camp at Bigrlyi - Compilation of historical data - Converting some historic data to digital format - Clearing access to prospects and drill pads - Surface prospecting, mapping and sampling - Completion of some CLC notifications and aboriginal heritage surveys - Completion of approx 150 combination RC/Diamond drill holes for approx 35,000m at Bigrlyi and east along strike of the Bigrlyi prospect into EL 24453.en_US
