A mapping and soil sampling programme successfully identified intersecting mineralised fault corridors from satellite imagery. Two extensive northeast trending graben structures host Cu enriched soil anomalies and Cu quartz vein bearing fault breccias at surface. Historical works as well as work by Great Western indicate the likelihood of copper-porphyry style orebodies at depth.

An IP survey has been completed. The IP survey profiles were orientated in an east-west direction and designed to test down to 300m depth. Two of the three profiles successfully identified structures of interest, leading to the identification of two graben structures bounding a central horst block. The faults that control these structures have both high chargeability and high resistivity features, interpreted as representing potential mineralised zones (chargeable) adjacent to silicified wall rocks (resistive). The structures spatially correspond to several surface features indicative of mineralisation, including copper showings, silicified stockwork zones and copper soil geochemistry halos.

The results achieved highlight the prospectivity of several areas at the Eastside Mine, providing potential targets for future drilling.
