Eurow Copper Prospect Eugowra NSW Report on Specimens From Eurow Copper Prospect Eugowra

Abstract

The Eurow lode is a copper bearing body striking 330 degrees (magnetic) and dipping 70 degrees southwest through an inlier of hornfels and schist in sheared granite. A rich, oxidized zone extended to 100 feet, after which the primary zone, containing pyrite with lesser copper and zinc sulphides, occurs. The lode, which is localized near a hornfels - schist contact, varies considerably in width, but averages 2 feet. Mineralization has been proved to a depth of 150 feet and to a length of approximately 800 feet by mining operations in the early part of this century. A diamond drilling programme is recommended to test two magnetic anomalies, one associated with known sulphide mineralization, the other in an unworked area
