What on earth is happening with Morris Creek, there must be some news due out soon? It dosen't take that long to drill some holes in the ground and sample the dirt!
It really dose not make sense.

High impact targets identified at Morris Creek with Rocklands-like potential
Copper and gold explorer Queensland Mining Corp Ltd said today it has received very encouraging
results from the latest geophysical survey of its 100% owned Morris Creek tenement in northwest
Queensland.
Four target areas were identified with cumulative strike lengths up to 2600m by the Sub-Audio
Magnetics (SAM) survey over the tenement, located immediately south of Cudeco Ltd’s world class
Rocklands copper gold project in Cloncurry.
“We are very encouraged by the SAM geophysical survey results in the Morris Creek project area,”
managing director Howard Renshaw said.
“The survey has identified four strong conductive zones in the tenements with lithologies
comparable to those hosting the Rocklands copper gold project, which shares a 1.6 kilometre
boundary with Morris Creek along the Cudeco project’s southern border.
.
“These high impact targets correlate exceptionally with mapped faults/shear zones and outcropping
copper mineralisation. Their orientation shows a strike of approximately 310 degrees – similar to the
main mineralised strikes known as ‘Rocklands’ and ‘Las Minerale’ within the Rocklands project.
“We are now actively organising drill programs to test these high impact targets in the next few
weeks with an aim to repeat the mineralisation discovered by Cudeco at its Rocklands project.
“QMC has initially planned 38 drilling holes across the four target areas, with various indicated
strike lengths of up to 750 metres.
“Further evaluation and drilling of all target areas could well identify more extensive mineralisation
across wider zones and thereby expand the high impact target areas, as indicated in the attachment.”
QMC owns more than 50 mining leases in the Cloncurry mineral region.
