Drilling collaboration between PIRSA and industry

Description

Theme 2 is a partnership between the South Australian Government and the minerals industry. The Theme is designed to stimulate exploration in the State by providing a grant for drilling programs with economic mineral potential but they are hampered by factors such as thick or problematic cover sequences, which may have previously discouraged investment.

The Theme is run on an annual cyclic timeframe and grants are not limited to the minerals industry as funding is also provided for petroleum and geothermal exploration drilling projects.

Process

The cycle begins when PIRSA seeks proposals from industry to undertake exploration drilling projects that are to be jointly funded by both the proponents and PIRSA.

The submitted proposals then undergo a rigorous assessment by both an internal panel of PIRSA Geological Survey Officers and an external, highly experienced and independent group of assessors.

Successful projects are viewed as the highest quality exploration targets based on sound technical, scientific and commercial criteria.

Theme 2 provides grant monies for up to 50% of the direct drilling costs, up to a maximum possible allocation of $100,000 per proposal.

The successful proposals are then officially announced and the proponent companies then have one year to complete their programs and submit reports and drilling samples. These reports and core samples become open file very soon after completion.

The project proponents and/or operational nominees undertake management of the projects.

Outcomes

• An increased focus on more frontier areas of the Curnamona Province, Musgrave Province and Gawler Craton, as indicated by expansion in new tenement applications in under explored areas.
• A substantial increase in new drilling metres is planned.
• A sizeable increase in new companies entering South Australia.
• To ensure that final company drilling reports, including associated data, are made available as soon as practicable (recognising commercial confidentiality and Australian Stock Exchange disclosure rules).
• To ensure that new drill core / samples are readily accessible at the PIRSA core library.
• An increased number and diversity of exploration targeting criteria is to be introduced to work programs within PIRSA to promote a more responsive approach to future exploration stakeholder needs.
• To gain a heightened awareness of exploration methodologies and mineral deposit model knowledge, with government personnel as a training aid for future departmental exploration-related projects.
• To enhance the PIRSA geoscientific databases.

Key Highlights

• The PACE Theme 2 program receives an outstanding response from industry.
• $2.0 million was committed to each of the five Rounds.
• Large financial commitments for future exploration were generated through Iluka Resource’s Gulliver’s prospect, Lynch Mining’s western Eyre Peninsula project, Quasar Resource’s Beverley 4 Mile deposit, RMG Service’s Carrapateena deposit and Petratherm’s Callabonna geothermal project.
• An outstanding success occurred with Minotaur’s discovery of a large volume of water that can be used as a water source for the Prominent Hill mine development.
• A total of 335 proposals were received over the five Rounds with 168 proposals receiving PACE funding.
• From the 168 successful projects, 156 of the projects were for minerals exploration, 10 for geothermal and 2 for petroleum.
• An outstanding number of PACE drilling programs have uncovered significant new deposits and mineralisation styles, some in areas of the state previously believed to be unattractive for the targeted mineralisations.
• PACE exploration projects have facilitated large financial commitments for future exploration from industry participants.
• There has been a substantially improved perception of South Australia’s mineral prospectivity within the international resources investment sector.
• There has been a significant increase in PIRSA’s knowledge of exploration criteria and methodologies.

Achievements

2004-2005 - Round 1

A total of 48 submissions were received in the first call for drilling proposals and of these, 28 were approved for funding. Nineteen projects proceeded within the required timeframe, while nine were unable to proceed, for varying reasons.

Of the Round 1 PACE supported projects, the Gawler Craton hosted half of the projects and nearly one third focused on IOCG exploration targets.

The following discoveries were all made with the assistance of PACE funding during Round 1.

Adelaide Resources Ltd - Gemini

• Three drillholes were completed in October and November 2004, with two holes successfully penetrating into basement rocks. Accessory titanomagnetite in volcanic rocks in the basement was found to account for the targeted magnetic anomalies at Gemini, and the presence of mafic volcanics may explain the subtle semi coincident gravity feature.
• No mineralisation was intersected however weak hydrothermal alteration of probable IOCG association was encountered. Petrology indicates that the hydrothermal alteration encountered in the drillholes has destroyed the magnetic phases and therefore areas of 'magnetite destruction' may form more prospective targets than those tested in this program.
• Significant volumes of saline ground water (21,000ppm NaCl equivalent) were intersected in one hole and may form a valuable future water resource for the planned Prominent Hill development.

Gunson Resources Ltd – Chianti

• Two holes totalling 1161.1 m were drilled on this project targeting IOCG mineralisation in the Gawler Craton. Over some sections of core up to 0.5 m long, the overall percentage of sulphides was seen to approach 50%.
• Mineralogically, the mineralisation consists of chalcopyrite and minor bornite, associated with pyrite in a quartz-rich host unit. Mineralised intervals include 2.00 m @ 3.39% Cu, 0.17 ppm Au, 3.0 ppm Ag from 549 to 551 m and 6.00 m @ 1.40% Cu, 0.07 ppm Au, 2.0 ppm Ag from 548 to 554 m. At this depth, this intersection is not of economic interest. It does however demonstrate that within the Chianti Prospect setting there is the potential to generate mineralisation of potentially economic grades.
• Data from the PACE project has extended the regional understanding of basement geology in the Mt Gunson area. The implication is that while the Chianti area has all the features required to host
  a significant body of mineralisation, drilling in 2005 did not intersect that body.

Minotaur Resources Ltd – Mount Woods Groundwater

• Development of the Prominent Hill deposit requires an adequate source of water to support the mining and processing operations. Although water is available from the Eromanga Basin, approximately 100-200 km to the east, the potential to locate water more proximal to the deposit was the central theme of this PACE proposal.
• Groundwater resources on the Gawler Craton outside the Great Artesian Basin were believed to be restricted to Tertiary Palaeochannels and in isolated fractured bedrock and Permian Troughs. Minotaur’s regional drilling encountered significant water flows from Permian sequences that were locally thickened. Processing of detailed gravity data revealed the presence of Palaeochannels that coincided with known Permian occurrences, close to the Mount Woods Inlier.
• Drilling confirmed the presence of water-bearing basal Permian sequences above the shallow basement rocks of the Mount Woods Inlier and yielded water flows that were extremely encouraging, and the program was a success.
• Further work was planned to better define the palaeochannels and troughs, followed by testing within the central part of those channels to determine the drawdown capacity and safe yield of the aquifers.

Mithril Resources Ltd - Harris Greenstone

Cumulatively, the funded exploration programs continued to provide scope for future exploration activities.

• In September and December 2004 Mithril Resources completed 53 drillholes as part of their program. The drilling tested the development of nickel enrichment in the weathering profile of the Harris Greenstone Belt in the Gawler Craton, first recognised in Mithril’s exploration at the Mullina Prospect in June 2004, located approximately 15km southeast of Tarcoola.
• Drilling was also conducted at two other untested portions of the Harris Greenstone Belt, the Mullina West target and the Moolkra target. At the Mullina prospect, the PACE drilling delineated a zone of nickel enrichment over a 900m x 150m area with nickel above 1500 ppm and reaching up to 7000 ppm (in three metre composite drill samples). Similar degrees of cobalt and iron enrichment geochemically characterise the nickel anomalism as being derived from an (as yet) unlocated sulphide source. Harris Komatiite was intersected at the Mullina West prospect and metapyroxenite and metagabbro was intersected at Moolkra.
• Follow up drilling was planned but the results, particularly the large ‘foot print’ of the Ni anomaly in the regolith, suggested that shallow drilling of the regolith, may be a viable exploration strategy for Ni sulphides in this region.
• Cumulatively, the funded exploration programs continued to provide scope for future exploration activities.

Red Metal Ltd - Moonta

• A single diamond drillhole 656.7 m deep testing a strong gravity low was completed for this program. The hole intersected a broad sequence of poorly bedded to massive dominantly felspathic metasediments in the upper section of the hole with more finely laminated, quartz-rich, metapelitic units dominating in the lower section.
• Sulphide mineralisation occurs throughout the hole with density of veining and level of copper mineralisation strongest within the lower part of the massive felspathic sequence. Copper occurs as chalcopyrite mainly within carbonate±biotite veins, but also as disseminations within intense carbonate altered intervals.
• Assays defined a broad zone of low order copper +/- Mo through the lower part of the felspathic sequence. Additional low order copper occurs near the end of the hole. No economic levels of copper were intersected. The sub-economic copper mineralisation represents a new carbonate-sulphide, low iron oxide style of IOCG mineralisation.
• Additional work during the period confirmed the presence of wide spread anomalous geochemistry in the project area and formed the basis for additional testing of the area during the following period. Planned work included further air-core and diamond drillholes in priority areas.

Tasman Resources NL - Marathon South

• Located in the Olympic Subdomain of the Gawler Craton, a single hole intersected over 270 m of variable haematite–sericite–silica–carbonate altered breccias. Only sporadic anomalous Cu and Au were recorded but it is possible the rocks intersected may be part of a large hydrothermal-volcanic system. Such a system is of obvious interest particularly in the region that hosts the Olympic Dam deposit, where alteration systems are large and overlapping such that any information on alteration mineralogy gives valuable insights into the location of drillholes in relation to mineral system zonation and where economic metal values may be located.

Terramin Australia Ltd - Menninnie Dam

• The Menninnie system encompasses the largest known lead-zinc and silver deposit in South Australia, with almost equal proportions of lead and zinc, plus extensive copper targets in the south.
• The 2004 PACE funded drilling on the Menninnie Dam prospect investigated a variety of RAB-delineated stratabound and structural targets. A total of 262 aircore and RAB hammer drillholes were completed for a total 8633.5 m.
• Significant Pb–Ag and Pb–Zn mineralisation was intersected during this drilling. Some of the better intersections were 3.5 m @ 4.2% Zn, 21.5g/t Ag and 50 m @ 1.1% Pb.
• Importantly, all intersections identified previously unknown zones of mineralisation within the Menninnie Dam project. Nearby and possibly across strike, a single percussion hole MD RCP14 tested the B1 target and intersected 8 m @ 18% Pb as cerussite at a shallow depth. This carbonate mineralisation had not previously been encountered at Menninnie Dam.
• Subsequent to the PACE drilling program Terramin undertook a major drilling program at Menninnie Dam representing a major investment in the project.
• Menninnie Dam has been long known to be an unusually complex and enigmatic mineral system,
  and any additional information derived from PACE drilling is a valuable contribution to unravelling this complexity in order to delineate extensions to mineralisation and, importantly, to locate additional ore bodies of this type elsewhere.

Vintage Exploration Pty Ltd – KiKi

• The project area occurs within the poorly explored Kanmantoo Trough located 130 kilometres southeast of Adelaide. Drilling targeted two magnetic anomalies, interpreted as having potential for sulphide mineralisation associated with a layered ultramafic complex in the Cambro-Ordovician basement beneath the Tertiary cover of the Murray Basin.
• Two holes were drilled for a total of 398 m and intersected ultramafic rocks containing visible nickel sulphides and magnetite which assayed up to 0.135% nickel, 0.125% chromium and 34.3% magnesium. This represented the first ultramafic rock type, considered highly prospective for nickel mineralisation, to have been intersected in the region.

Opal Exploration

The grant went towards the purchase of a new auger drill rig which was then used for an ongoing, self-sustaining drilling program providing an opportunity for participation by as many miners as possible.

• Two grants were given to South Australian Opal Miners Association Inc. (SAOMI) and Coober Pedy Miners Association Inc. (CPMAI) to explore for opals in more regional and unexplored areas of the opal fields. The grant went towards the purchase of a new auger drill rig which was then used for an ongoing, self-sustaining drilling program providing an opportunity for participation by as many miners as possible. The program was managed by the CPMAI with drill sites nominated by participating miners and/or by a PIRSA representative.
• Up to December 2005, the drilling program had successfully completed 714 drillholes with 10 miners participating. Encouragingly, 20% of drillholes intersected ‘good sandstone’, the favoured opal-bearing horizon, while 12% of drillholes were observed to contain opal trace.
• The drilling program has shown that opal can be found in previously unexplored areas, as demonstrated by the discovery of the newly opened Opal Ridge Field. The data gathered from the logging of drillhole samples has significantly added to the geological knowledge of the factors affecting opal formation and occurrence.
• The grant given to SAOMI has gone towards subsidising drilling by local miners in the northern opal fields. This program is ongoing and is managed by SAOMI.

2005-2006 - Round 2

A total of 69 drilling proposals were received in Round 2 of which, 43 were approved for funding. Of these 43 successful proposals, 38 were completed within the required time frame.

New commodity targets emerging in Round 2 included uranium, heavy mineral sands, diamonds and iron. Funding was also awarded to three geothermal projects.

A number of Round 2 drilling programs uncovered significant new deposits and mineralisation styles, some in areas of the state previously believed to be unattractive for the target mineralisation. Other Round 2 projects confirmed the potential presence of target mineralisation and company exploration will continue.

The following discoveries were made with the assistance of PACE funding during Round 2.

Dominion Gold Operations Pty Ltd – Notrab

• This project was initially targeting gold in the basement rocks but drilling difficulties prevented testing at this depth. As is common however, the program generated unexpected results for another type of mineralisation common to the same geological environment (i.e. tertiary marginal marine basins). Drilling encountered potentially significant heavy mineral concentrations in near surface sands.
• Grades of up to 2.64% heavy minerals over 16 m were intersected. These sands were interpreted as being part of a NE-SW trending barrier of Tertiary Eucla Basin sands. The area is located approximately 40 km to the north of Iluka Resources’ Jacinth and Ambrosia heavy mineral sands discoveries.

Dominion Gold Operations Pty Ltd – Challenger

• This PACE project was part of a deep drilling program designed to demonstrate a quantum increase in the potential size of the Challenger system by testing the down-plunge extension of the Challenger structure.
• A major step-out hole, Wildcat 2 (05CDDH0072), was designed to test for the continuation of the M1 shoot at a vertical depth of 700 m. As Wildcat 2 was such a large step-out, the hole was designed to drill from the north. The hole was completed to a depth of 843.3 m and successfully demonstrated the continuity of the M1 shoot to this depth. After completion of ‘Wildcat 2’, two infill holes (05CDDH0070 and 05CDDH0071) were drilled to intersect the M1 shoot, at vertical depths of respectively 450 m and 500 m. These holes also demonstrated excellent continuity of the M1 shoot, returning intersections of 35 m @ 10.7 g/t Au and 26 m @ 12.5 g/t Au respectively. These holes demonstrate the benefit of drilling from the favoured southerly direction.
• The results from this PACE drilling enabled this deeper part of the M1 resource to be upgraded to Indicated status and, subsequently underpinned a significant increase in the M1 gold reserves. Moreover the program provided a critical validation of the structural geology model for the deposit and will undoubtedly provide a platform for future discover both in and around Challenger.

Goldstream Mining NL – Kangaroo Dam

• The Kangaroo Dam exploration licence covers the western portion of the Palaeoproterozoic Mount Woods Inlier. A total of 5 diamond holes for 1740.6 m were drilled at the prospect intersecting a sequence of high-grade felsic to mafic gneisses and quartz-garnet rich gneisses.
• Assay results for most holes were low, with the ▪▪exception of KDD003 which intersected 22 m @ 0.91 ppm PGE (Pd+Pt+Au) from 148 m, including 2 m @ 1.94 ppm PGE from 151 m and 6 m @ 1.15 ppm PGE from 160 m.
• The mineralisation in drillhole KDD003 is palladium-▪▪dominant with a Pd:Pt ratio of 26:1. The mineralisation is located between two distinctive gneissic packages. The host rock in the mineralised zone is composed of fine-grained qz-bio-plag-gnt±pyx-hbl with 2 to 3% disseminated magnetite. This drilling has outlined a new style of PGE mineralisation not been previously seen in the Gawler Craton. There will be a significant follow-up program to further investigate this new discovery.

Havilah Resources NL – Eurinilla Dome

• Seven deep RC drillholes were completed to follow up previous copper and gold intersections within the target copper horizon.
• Two holes intersected mineralisation of potentially economic significance. Hole HMURC073 intersected 42 m of 1.44 ppm Au beginning at 36 m and 42 m of 1.61 ppm Au beginning at 132 m.
• Notably, copper sulphides were logged in some holes within the interpreted prospective sequence, with the best result being in EURC002 of 18 m @ 0.54% Cu between 138-156 m depth.
• The prospective sequence was intersected in a number of holes and two holes reached the magnetic albitite footwall providing good geological information on the position and dips of the main lithologies. This drilling also confirmed the earlier indications of copper mineralisation in the Eurinilla Dome, and will be followed up by further drilling.

Havilah Resources NL – North Benagerie Dome

• Twenty one holes were drilled on four prospects in the North Benagerie Dome Cu-Au Mo prospect. Extremely difficult drilling conditions were experienced at all prospects, which slowed drilling considerably and brought about poor sample recoveries.
• Drilling of the extensions of the North Portia Cu-Au-Mo mineralisation produced several potentially ore-grade intercepts, including 84 m of 1.03% Cu, 0.78g/t Au and 159 ppm Mo and 12 m @ 2.3% Cu & 1.8g/t Au. These and earlier drilling results will be incorporated into a new resources estimate for the North Portia deposit in due course.
• Drilling along strike extensions to the south towards the Portia gold prospect clearly intersected the mineralised horizon, but with weaker mineralisation evident. Testing of possible fold repetitions of the mineralised horizon at the West Portia and Arragon prospects intersected weakly mineralised footwall rocks.
• Time did not permit further drilling in the vicinity which sought to locate possible up sequence rocks. It is apparent that many potential targets exist around the Benagerie Dome, and that more drilling is required to fully resolve the questions that this program attempted to answer.

Hillgrove Resources Ltd – Kanmantoo

• Hillgrove Resources Ltd reported excellent exploration results from drilling around the Kanmantoo Mine south of Adelaide. PACE funded drillholes intersected significant copper and gold mineralisation that has led to the identification of a northern extension to the main orebody and a significant increase in resources. Drilling targeted structures that controlled mineralisation, with the aim of expanding the resource base at the Kanmantoo Mine area.
• The results have been encouraging and an important step in the development of the Kanmantoo Project. Intercepts from the drilling include 32 m @ 1.54% Cu & 0.38g/t Au, 23 m @ 1.52% Cu & 0.98g/t Au and 17 m @ 1.06% Cu. The drillhole that identified the northern extension to main orebody beneath the existing pit had an intersection of 47 m @ 1.13% Cu.
• The most important discoveries from the drilling were the generation of two new prospects to the north of the Kanmantoo open pit, which in turn has confirmed that significant base metal mineral potential for the Kanmantoo Trough regionally.

Iluka Resources Ltd – Gulliver’s

• This PACE project drilling was conducted over three months on the western Eyre Peninsula to the end of April 2006. Drilling helped to define a 7.0 by 2.5 km wide zone of heavy mineral mineralisation and subsequently named Gulliver’s prospect.
• Laboratory results revealed a relatively uniform ore body with heavy mineral grades ranging from
  1 to 7.9%.
• The Gulliver’s Prospect represents a different style of mineralisation to that of Jacinth, Ambrosia and Tripitaka. The prospect represents a large sheet like body of homogenous, fine-grained heavy minerals and, though dominated by altered ilmenite, still includes zircon as a significant component.
• This PACE-funded project has further confirmed the potential of the Eucla Basin for world-class HMS deposits, and further exploration work is planned and has maintained the momentum for encouraging domestic and international interest in this area.

Lynch Mining Pty Ltd – Western Eyre Peninsula

• The PACE initiative supported the discovery of Lynch Mining’s massive sulphide intercept at the Oakdale prospect on the Western Eyre Peninsula. This intercept is of prime importance as it represents a style of mineralisation not previously seen in South Australia and opens the region up to potential Archaean copper-zinc mineralisation.
• Drillhole BLDD04 at the Oakdale North prospect intersected 19.2 m @ 1.77% Zn, 0.86% Pb and 3.5 ppm Ag between 141.0 m and 160.2 m. This zone was underlain by 3.1 m @ 4.92% Zn, 3.3 ppm Ag and 0.12 ppm Au between 172.6 m and 175.7 m. Drillholes BLDD02 and BLDD03 at Oakdale also intersected massive exhalative iron sulphides containing anomalous Zn.
• These intersections are considered highly encouraging with the potential for Archaean Cu-Zn mineralisation discoveries in the region. Drilling at Bramfield intersected skarn iron mineralisation with a zone of 37.8 m @ 40.4% Fe outlined from 87.3 m to 125.1 m identified in hole BLDD06.
• Since the PACE funded exploration Lynch has continued on with significant exploration activities
  to further develop the prospect.
• The project has confirmed the long-suspected presence of VHMS-related potential in the Archean of the Gawler Craton (a related depositional basin to that hosting the Challenger Gold Deposit), as well as highlighting enough fundamental difference from the standard mineral deposit model to better guide future exploration strategies.

PepinNini Minerals Ltd - Mount Harcus

• PepinNini conducted drilling at Mount Harcus in the Musgrave Province in April-May 2006 with the approval of APY and Indigenous Custodians of the area. The program consisted of twenty-one drillholes and a water bore for a total 3111 m of drilling and investigated a variety of targets associated with two prominent ultramafic/mafic intrusions belonging to the Giles Complex.
• Drilling intersected massive, sub net-texture and disseminated sulphide mineralisation associated with the Mt Harcus Intrusion. The mixed sulphide presence confirms sulphur saturation and the potential for primary sulphide accumulations within the targeted mafic intrusions. The sulphide encountered is dominated by pyrrhotite but is also accompanied by modest proportions of chalcopyrite and possible pentlandite.
• This drilling was highly encouraging and will be
