| ABSTRACT: | The Governor Broome Heavy Mineral Deposits occur within a surficial Pleistocene sand unit, the Warren Sands, and in the immediately unconformably underlying Beenup Beds of the Cretaceous Warnbro Group. Both units are horizontal The Warren Sands vary in thickness from 4m to 9m.. They contain HM mineralisation, which increases in grade in the unit’s lower few metres. The Beenup Beds sediments are of two main facies in the area: clayey sands and organic clays. The clayey sands contain medium- to coarse-grained, angular to sub-angular, unconsolidated quartz and minor feldspar grains. The clay content, which is variable, tends to increase downward. Generally, it contains between 1% and 8% of valuable HM in its top few metres. The HM assemblage averages of the order of 53% ilmenite, 6% secondary ilmenite, 3.5% leucoxene, 1.5% Hi-Ti, and 5% zircon for a total of 69% valuable HM. A total of 289 vertical air-core holes were drilled during February and March. The location of the holes is shown in Figure 1. The holes were drilled in five separate areas | |
