Use of Airborne Γ-Ray Spectrometry for Environmental Assessment of the Rehabilitated Nabarlek Uranium Mine, Australia
Environmental Monitoring and Assessment (2006) 115: 531–553 DOI: 10.1007/s10661-006-7244-y c Springer 2006 USE OF AIRBORNE γ-RAY SPECTROMETRY FOR ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT OF THE REHABILITATED NABARLEK URANIUM MINE, AUSTRALIA PAUL MARTIN1,2,∗, STEPHEN TIMS1,3, ANTHONY MCGILL4, BRUCE RYAN1 and KIRRILLY PFITZNER1 1Environmental Research Institute of the Supervising Scientist (eriss), Darwin, NT, Australia; 2Agency’s Laboratories Seibersdorf, International Atomic Energy Agency, Vienna, Austria; 3Department of Nuclear Physics, Australian National University, Canberra, ACT, Australia; 4Northern Territory Department of Business, Industry & Resource Development, Darwin, NT, Australia (∗author for correspondence, e-mail: [email protected]) (Received 16 May 2004; accepted 12 May 2005) Abstract. This article describes an airborne γ survey of a 7 × 5 km region around the rehabilitated Nabarlek uranium mine in northern Australia. An unusually tight line spacing (100 m) and low aircraft height (50 m) were used, enabling the survey to distinguish man-made structures such as ponds and accommodation areas, as well as creek lines. Positive correlations between airborne data and ground- based readings enabled an estimation of the average absorbed dose rate arising from terrestrial γ radiation over large areas of the site to be derived. For the fenced minesite area this estimate was 0.31 μGy hr−1. The airborne survey data were found to be invaluable in helping to plan further ground-level investigations and showed promise as an assessment tool for rehabilitated minesites. Keywords: airborne gamma survey, dose rate estimation, Nabarlek, radiological assessment, reha- bilitation, uranium mining 1. Introduction Airborne γ radiometric surveys have been used extensively over several decades for mineral exploration and geological mapping purposes (Galbraith and Saunders, 1983; Smith, 1985; Zhang et al., 1998). -

West Arnhem Exploration Update
9 September 2019 Exploration Update –West Arnhem-Nabarlek Project, Northern Territory Drilling intersects uranium mineralisation beneath the historical Nabarlek Open Pit and at U40 opening up new discovery opportunities Highlights • Diamond drilling beneath the historical high-grade Nabarlek Uranium Mine intersects anomalous uranium-gold bearing fault breccia beneath the Oenpelli Dolerite with a best intercept of 0.3m @ 525ppm U3O8. • Mineralisation at the base of the breccia bears a strong similarity to that seen within the historical Nabarlek ore zone, suggesting the potential for a Nabarlek- style deposit in the vicinity. • This anomalous breccia is poorly tested beneath the dolerite and open to the south. Several beds of south-east dipping graphitic sediments intersected in the vicinity provide a target for follow-up drilling. • Diamond drilling at U40 intersects open-ended uranium mineralisation on the western flank of the IP anomaly with a best intercept of 0.7m @ 1,059 ppm U3O8. • Next steps include a review of historical EM data to refine targets for possible further drilling. DevEx Resources Limited (ASX: DEV; “the Company”) is pleased to advise that assay results have been received from recent diamond drilling at the Company’s 100%-owned West Arnhem- Nabarlek Project in the Northern Territory, confirming the presence of anomalous uranium mineralisation beneath the historical Nabarlek Mine and on the western side of the U40 Prospect.
