“ It is readily apparent in the VLF data that an
anomaly is streaming to the northeast in even more definite
fashion than to the south (Walsh Lake grid). This comes as no
surprise since the country rocks here, the volcanics and sediments
are being increasingly squeezed as they head northeast. Granite
intrusions lie to the south and broadly to the north.
The magnetics for the area contain a fair amount of activity
in the range 56,500 – 58,000 nT. Some of the highpoints
are sharply resolved and indicate a bedded environment variously
intruded under a comparatively thin cover. In terms of potential
gold mineralization, the southern reaches of the area appear
the more interesting. Here, there are more irregularities in
the otherwise smooth continuum of contours, exemplified best
by the prominent quasi-circular high in the south-centre of
the area. By all appearance, this feature portrays an intrusive
centre more mafic than its surrounds. It peaks at 360E on line
1100N.
There is evidence that it also sits on a major N-S fault
line. The focus of this structure hence becomes a prospective
target, and as it extends north from the intrusion, it is of
some considerable note that it should thread a succession of
magnetic lows as it does so. The closest two to the intrusive
contact are also among the strongest in the area, but not the
strongest. That distinction belongs to another magnetic low
sitting 200m to grid East on line 1200N. In that location it
too nestles in close to the granite contact and is eminent there.
Should interesting mineralization and/or alternation be
encountered in the first 2 holes, then this section will offer
immediate scope for in-fill drilling.”
