Ewan Edward Project Annual Report for the period 17 July 2017 to 16 July 2018

Abstract

This report details exploration undertaken during the twelve month reporting period between 17th July 2017 and 16th July 2018. This report is for EL 31532 (Ewan Edward Project). The Tenement lies within the Tennant Creek Mineral Field and is highly prospective for epigenetic structurally controlled ironstone and related gold copper mineralisation. During the 2017 dry season Truscott continued to carry out field mapping work. The main goals of the mapping exercise were to map elements of regional and local mineralised structures to further develop the understanding of the projects regional and local structural setting. In addition to mapping the location of ironstone and other mineralised outcrops, particular attention was paid to the ground expression of the 083 degrees dextral shear and the resultant 063 degrees (compression), and 103 degrees (extensional) shear zones. Previously unmapped shears Sigma 1(128 degrees and R' 153 degrees) were also noted (Strain Analysis diagram Figure 3) and its importance will be checked at other locations next field trip. These shear zones occur both locally and regionally and are visible on Google Earth, gravity survey maps and are also found on the ground during field mapping exercises. These structural features occur on the Westminster tenements (pilot project) which have been modelled and successfully applied to EL 31532. Laterites that usually occur above ore bodies (that may contain anything from Iron to mineralised low grade Au) were sampled at 3 localities across the Ewan Edward project and have been submitted to the lab for analysis.
