| ABSTRACT: | Exploration activity in the March 2017 quarter consisted of RAB/aircore drilling programs at Far Kundana West and Papa Bear areas in addition to ongoing diamond drilling at Raleigh South. Twenty-eight diamond holes (5,231m) were completed at Raleigh South in the quarter as part of the Phase Two Upper Infill program. Of the twenty-eight holes completed, fourteen are diamond tails from RC pre-collars initiated in 2016 and fourteen are diamond holes drilled from surface. The completed RAB/aircore program tested three NW-SE trending structures over an area of 3km2. highlighted by the 2016 SAM survey. Eight drill lines, spaced 400m apart with drill hole spacings either 40m or 80m apart, were completed for a total of 218 drill holes. Four metre composite samples were collected for the entire drill hole length with one bottom-of-hole sample collected for multi-element analysis from each drill hole. At the Papa Bear prospect, aircore drilling tested NW-SE trending lithological contacts adjacent to the Kurrawang Unconformity over a 3 kilometre strike distance. The drilling covered an area measuring 6km2 with most holes on M16/309 with only two holes drilled on M16/308 (PBAC17019-20). Ten drill lines, spaced 200m to 400m apart with hole spacing of either 100m or 200m were completed for a total of 110 holes. Four metre composite samples were collected for the entire drill hole length with one bottom-of-hole sample collected from each drill hole for multielement analysis. Drilling was hampered by the presence of running sands and clays in paleochannels with four planned holes abandoned due to boggy conditions following heavy rainfall events. | |
