GEO Exploration Limited's (AIM:GEO) airborne geophysical programme at the Gorge Project in Western Australia has identified a strike‑limited high‑priority magnetic anomaly (MAG001), two radiometric uranium anomalies (RAD001 and RAD002) and refined an approximately 5km zone of historical gold mineralisation.
MAG001 presents an amplitude of approximately 400nT, 3D inversion modelling indicates a depth‑to‑top of roughly 300m with significant vertical extent, and the anomaly is coincident with a LiDAR topographic feature and surface iron‑oxide staining, while RAD001 lies approximately 300m from MAG001.
High‑resolution LiDAR and aerial photography have materially improved mapping of historic shafts, outcrops and access, and the magnetic data reinterprets the mineralised corridor as a major northeast‑trending structural zone with demagnetised areas that may mark hydrothermal fluid flow.
The 81km2 licence, approximately 110km west of Paraburdoo, hosts historical work including rock chips to 134g/t Au, soils to 233g/t Au, and multiple near‑surface nuggets (some over 100g), and the datasets will be used to rank targets ahead of a proposed maiden drilling programme, subject to heritage and government permits.
“The modern datasets now being generated are helping us move from historical prospectivity towards systematic target generation,” Omar Ahmad, Chief Executive Officer, said.
