Abstract: | This report outlines historical exploration data and our investigations through April 2008 and includes our conclusions for the continuation of exploration over the area during the dry season of 2010-11, 2011-12 and the progress made from the collection of fresh samples. Mineral comparisons were made with local and international product currently in use for the offshore oil & gas drilling industries. With consideration for the initial results obtained. it has been ascertained that swelling clays, vermiculite and smectite exists within the zones between 20 and 28m depths these results have provided us with enough incentive to re-apply for the entire 3 blocks and to undertake shallow sample drilling or costeaning in the areas due west of drill holes 12 - 16. The area selected for sampling is intended to provide us with access to target zones using the natural descending contours of the landscape and to further explore the extents of the zones of interest across the axis of the original linier drilling pattern. The drill hole areas 12-16 contained the core samples of interest in which our analysis re-confirmed the presence of montmorillinite. |
