White's extended prospect, Rum Jungle, Northern Territory

Created 16/10/2025

Updated 16/10/2025

During the 1950 Field Season three radiometric anomalies were located by geophysical methods on a low hill situated between 1,300 and 2,000 feet east of White's Deposit. This area is known as White's Extended Prospect. In 1951 geological mapping on a scale of 40 feet to an inch was undertaken and this was followed by costeaning and diamond drilling. Owing to other commitments in the Rum Jungle area the explanatory programme and mapping in the White's Extended area has not been completed.
