A Summary of Major Mineral Resources, Mines and Projects, 2nd Edition

Comments

Economic gold mineralisation occurs in a tabular body that is crudely conformable with the enclosing Late Devonian to early

Carboniferous felsic volcanics and volcaniclastics.

A network of quartz-chalcedony veins and quartz-matrix breccia veins of at least four generations cut the host rocks.

Ashburton Minerals Ltd purchased the Drummond Basin Gold Project in August 2003 from Delta Gold Ltd, a subsidiary of Aurion Gold

Ltd.

Ashburton has been investigating the feasibility of the Albion Process or Intec Refractory Gold Process for treating sulphide ore. In

March 2004, Ashburton announced that it had suspended the feasibility study to concentrate on resource discovery.
