ORION 3D: Cutting-Edge DCIP & MT Surveys Reveal 55.4m Sulphide Zone for Corazon Mining in Australia

Challenges

The project faced the difficulty of identifying deep, pipe-like geophysical anomalies within the geologically complex Fraser Lake Complex. The goal was to locate zones rich in nickel-copper-cobalt sulphides in an area where mineralization occurred at significant depths and often in poorly understood subsurface structures.

Solutions

An innovative ORION 3D DCIP and MT geophysical survey was employed to delineate conductive anomalies linked to sulphide mineralization. This technology allowed for detailed imaging of subsurface features, enabling precise drilling of high-priority targets, such as mafic/ultramafic intrusive pipes.

Highlights

The initial drill hole testing one of the identified anomalies intersected a 55.4-meter sulphide zone, confirming the effectiveness of the geophysical approach. These anomalies extended from near the surface to depths exceeding 700 meters, providing valuable insights into the mineral potential of the Fraser Lake Complex.
