The Company’s 100% owned Berringara project lies in greenstones in the Narryer Terrane, immediately north of the Jack Hills Greenstone Belt. The Narryer Terrain is known to host discrete mafic and ultramafic intrusives with nickel, copper, chromium and Platinum Group Element mineralisation identified by previous explorers.
Detailed magnetics flown in December 2007, in conjunction with Landsat and radiometric images, highlighted a large oval feature, 12km NE by 9km SE, cut by NE and NNE fault zones containing outcropping ultramafics, including olivine cumulate textures, and suggests extensions of 9km (East) and 10km (West) in length.
The Company is targeting Ni-Cu-PGE with the possibility of shear-hosted gold and felsic intrusive hosted uranium.
The Company’s field crews commenced soil and rock chip sampling on an initial 12 priority targets in April, with results expected later this quarter. Targets producing encouraging surface anomalies will be ranked for follow up drill testing.
