HIGHLIGHTS
* 6,448 commercial size diamonds have been recovered from the sorting
of 566 tonnes of crater infill sediments from the Sepelt 1 pipe, with
grades up to 44 cpht. A further 600 tonnes awaiting diamond recovery.
* 130 tonnes of Seppelt 1 macrocrystic kimberlite and 190 tonnes of
overlying deeply weathered kimberlite have been processed with
concentrates dispatched to Striker's Perth Laboratory for diamond
recovery.
* 150 tonne of macrocrystic kimberlite excavated and awaiting
processing from the Seppelt 2 kimberlite.
* Further sub-outcrop and float found associated with the Beagle
kimberlite located 10 km north Ashmore.
* Three magnetic 'bulls eye' anomalies at Collison ready for drill
testing. Soil geochemistry supports possible kimberlite from two of
the targets ranging in size up to 300m in diameter.
* Follow-up of a 1.73 ct gem quality diamond continuing with the
focus being on the northern tributary of the drainage.
* Reconnaissance exploration continuing with some 400 samples
collected to date, and 316 line km of ground geophysics completed.
* De Beers Multi-Spectral Scanner survey of 1,725 sqkm in addition to
aeromagnetic surveys were completed in two areas totalling 100 sqkm.
