This quarter, with its favourable climatic conditions, has seen the greatest activity in the field for the year. Thirteen geologists and five geophysicists, together with many assistants, have operated in the area on many prospects. The Darwin office and laboratory are well-established and providing many services to the public such as assaying, instrument repair, and geological and geophysical advice. Detailed geological and geophysical work has been commenced or continued at the following prospects: A.B.C., Edith River, Burrundie, Brock's Creek and Adelaide River, while minor investigations have been carried out at many other localities. Three drills have operated throughout the quarter. Regional geological mapping has been continued over a wide area. The amount of work being done will decrease during the coming quarter due to the approach of the "wet" season.
