Key Points
- New iron discovery at Jurangie Hill tenement at Kurnalpi-Randalls Project in WA's Eastern Goldfields
- Discovery is only 14 km north of Mahendra's Find iron discovery, discovered mid- 2008, and is located only
37km from the Trans Australian railway
- Company believes this discovery has potential similar to Mahendra's Find
- Host Banded Iron Formation (BIF) is highly folded, weathered, and confined to a major syncline (Steeple Hill
Syncline) and due to paucity of rock outcrops to date only a handful of rock chip samples have been collected
- Further rock chip sampling, geological mapping, analysis of airborne magnetic-radiometric data, and on ground
gravity survey for concealed hematite/hematite-goethite resources to be undertaken followed by drill program
and resource estimation
