Abstract: Elkedra Pound Project is situated in the southeast Davenport Province in the central part of Northern Territory, 315 kilometers north northeast of Alice Springs (Figures 1). Historical activity centered at Hatched Creek, tungsten mineralisation was discovered in the area about 100 years since 1913, the tungsten mineralisation occurs in steeply dipping variously orientated narrow quartz veins which cut the Ooradidgee Group and postdate the Hatches Creek Group folding event. They are postulated to originate from the Elkedra Granite and similar granites in the region (Blake et al., 1986). There are three types of mineralisation: wolframite-scheelite in lodes in gabbro; cupriferous wolframite in lodes in acid porphyritic volcanic rocks; Wolframite in lodes in sedimentary and volcanic rocks. EL 28764 is granted in November 2011, the tenement covered 91 graticular blocks on Elkedra Station, located about 100 km east of Barrow Creek in the Northern Territory of Australia. Most areas of EL 28764 located around the Elkedra Pound region, it is comprised of an ellipse of Coulters Sandstone, forming the hills of the Davenport Range. These hills limit access with wheeled vehicles. The core is comprised largely of dacite, rhyolite and ignimbrite of the Newlands volcanic. There is an overlying sequence of mostly felsic Arabulja Volcanism in the north and northwest. These volcanic shows strong radiometric anomalism. During 2012-2013 period, Australia Mining and Gemstone Co. Pty. Ltd (AMG) disposed historical data in MapInfo. Due to the tenements distance from accommodation and no surface water, AMG staffs were not able to erect a simple camp site, therefore no on-ground exploration work was completed. AMG implemented its main field activity to the north of the tenement around the Kurinelli goldfield. During 2014-2016 period, Australia Mining and Gemstone Co. Pty. Ltd (AMG) continued to review all historical data from the STRIKE, and want to find the mineralisation about the Zinc, Lead and Copper et al. During 2018-2019 period, AMG continued to review all historical data from the STRIKE, and concerning the market and economic reason we decided to surrender this title.
