Prospecting campaign for Mount Bischoff tin mine

Created 17/10/2025

Updated 17/10/2025

It is considered that the future of the Mount Bischoff field depends on the success or failure attending efforts to find additional payable ore. The problem then is to locate large tonnages of replacement ore either as extensions of known orebodies or as new orebodies. The results of the campaign outlined in this report will be of paramount importance to the maintenance and development of the field, and the campaign should be conducted energetically by diamond drilling, supplemented by underground explanatory work. The geological interpretation, objectives of the drilling, and proposed drilling campaign are outlined in this report. Three accompanying geological plans are included.
