The Kalkaroo deposit shows typical supergene enrichment features in its upper part, caused by oxidation of the primary sulphides in the weathering zone. This is manifest in a sub-horizontal stratification of the ore minerals from top to bottom, forming 4 main ore types as follows:
1. Supergene free gold in saprolite (Oxide Gold Cap), with generally minor copper, largely recoverable by gravity methods and cyanide leaching. [OXIDE ZONE]
2. Native copper and gold in saprolite, largely recoverable by gravity methods. [OXIDE ZONE]
3. Chalcocite (a rich form of copper sulphide) dominant with gold, recoverable by conventional flotation. [SULPHIDE ZONE]
4. Chalcopyrite (a copper sulphide iron mineral) dominant with gold and locally rich cobalt and molybdenum, recoverable by conventional flotation. [SULPHIDE ZONE]
I had forgotten that Kalkaroo also has Malachite, at West Kalkaroo. See diamond drill hole KKDD486 from metallurgical testing during 2018.
KKDD0486:
85 metres @ 2.73 g/t gold from 75 - 160 metres
73 metres @ 1.17 % copper from 87 - 160 metres
39 metres @ 261 ppm cobalt from 121 - 160 metres (in sulphide zone only)
