Natural exposures are limited, and most records refer to samples from shallow water bores. Detailed exploration in the area commenced in the 1960’s when the Black and Bjelke Peterson (B-BP) partnership applied for a number of Mining Leases in the Kingaroy and Cooyar areas. In the 1970’s J.M Huber Corporation of the United States undertook detailed investigations on the B-BP Authority to Prospect and leases.
