This report deals with the work done by a field party of the Geophysical Section, Bureau of Resources, on leases in the Astrolabe Mineral Field held by Mandated Alluvials N.L. The work was done in the 1950 field season from March to December and was a continuation of the work done in 1949 and described in the first progress report. The geophysical survey was conducted using the magnetic, self-potential, equipotential-line, potential-drop-ratio, and electromagnetic methods. An overview of the geophysical methods used, their results, and the local geology, is provided for each of the individual areas surveyed in the course of this work.
