Nov 13, 2020 (K R Kettles) - This area is underlain by east-west striking, steeply dipping sandstone and conglomerate, by a layer of chert-magnetite iron formation about 30 m thick and mafic lava. Some trenches were put down on iron formation in the 1930's and quartz veins in these rocks yielded only low values in gold (Horwood, 1940). A grab sample collected in the clastic sediments (Riley, 1978) ran 0.03 oz/ton Au (1.03 g/tonne).
