EL 30701 Annual Report Reporting period 20 August 2016 to 19 August 2017

Abstract

During the year Meteoric carried out a ground magnetic survey with a cesium vapour magnetometer (Geometrics G-858) on E-W lines at 50m spacing, totalling 16.5 line-km. The location of the survey is shown in Figure 1. Access to the area proved to be heavily overgrown with dense bush, hampering the progress of the survey. Owing to slow progress and prior commitments by the geophysical contractor, the survey was not completed in its entirety, with approximately 50% of the proposed survey completed. Results of the survey are summarised in Figures 3 and 4. The survey shows a pronounced discrete magnetic anomaly in the western part of the survey area, interpreted to be the R29 anomaly. A broader anomalous magnetic zone occurs in the eastern part of the survey area, the cause of which is yet to be determined.
