| Abstract: | Essentially gold-arsenopyrite mineralization occurs as irregular
pipes and lenses associated with greisen and pegmatite dykes in a Permian
biotite granite boss. Proved ore reserves amount to 10,000 tons of about
15 per cent arsenic and 8-7 dwt gold.
The possibility of additional arsenic/gold ore of economic grade
should be tested by Induced Polarization techniques. A reconnaissance induced polarization (I.P.) survey was conducted over the Valla Mine. Four I.P. lines were surveyed, anomalies being obtained on each line. |
