Staten Project

(ELA52/2126) - Encounter 80%, Avoca 20%

The Staten Project covers over 300km 2 and is located near the southern margin of the Bangemall Basin, some 60kms east of Mt Augustus. The tenement covers two historical BHP regional stream sediment gold anomalies and an extensive uranium channel radiometric anomaly along the eastern flank of Staten Hill.

A small rock chip sampling program was completed along a 200m section of the +10km long radiometric anomaly at Staten Hill. An interesting multi-element anomaly in U-Ag-Cu-Mo-Ni-Zn was noted within a highly altered and sheared siltstone. This metal association highlights a potentially extensive area of metal enrichment along a key stratigraphic horizon. A systematic program of ground geochemistry and geophysics is planned once the tenement is granted.
