Abstract: EL 30601 is 100% held by Ian Cole, the EL is 6 Blocks a total of 20.06 km and was granted on the 6th May 2015. The EL is made on an area west of Nemours granted ML in the Mount Tymn Area and including old gold workings situated within the Burrell Creek Formation. Located approximately 15 kilometers South East of the Adelaide River Township adjacent to the Stuart Hwy. Work undertaken includes review of pervious reports and maps, prospecting using metal detectors and walking the ground to observe areas of interest. Due to the nature of this EL being located on Bridge Creek Station the area is actively used to store cattle therefore access can be a challenge due to the area not being exposed to traditional dry season burn offs. Activities completed include prospecting of the lease with metal detectors working gullies and runoffs, due to high grass and traditional wet season flooding these activities are restricted to the late dry season. Previous reports where reviewed to identify areas of interest a number of these areas appear to have been worked and scrapped, the station owner indicated that some had been used as gravel pits for road construction. A large dam has been constructed on what was hopped to be an alluvial area indicated from maps, there is no indication of the material that was removed. The station owner advised it was venture between himself and the adjoining ML this activity occurred prior to the grant of EL 30601. Artificially stored water was requested from this dam but the station owner refused to grant. No exploration map submitted as no samples have been removed during the reporting period. No Gold was found during the reporting period. Further work is required in the lease this dry season once access improves. This includes further review of previous reports, field trips to identify areas of interest, soil and rock chip sampling of areas of interest.
