2008-2009 Annual report for EL 9944

Abstract

EL 9944 is located approximately 7 kilometers west/north-west of Emerald Springs on the Burrundie (14/6-N) 1:50,000 scale map sheet. Exploration activities by Jiaren International are based on further proving up of base-metals found through previous exploration. Previous exploration programs covered research studies and detailed analysis of aerial maps including magnetic image maps and slope vector maps. Field trips were carried out to investigate best possible methods for further exploration in the Southern and Eastern parts of the lease. Removal of vegetation to facilitate exploration work and soil sampling was carried out in the last exploration season. The area covered by the tenement is dominated by rocks of Upper Wildman Siltstone, the Lower to Upper Koolpin Formation, and the Gerowie Tuff. The sediments have been intruded by pre-orogenic sills of Zamu Dolerite and by granitic rocks of the syn-orogenic Cullen Batholith. The Margaret Anticline is the dominate structure in the area, trending north/north-west through the tenement.
