Landsat structural study 2. Reprocessing of available airborne geophysics (magnetic and electromagnetic data) • Large soil geochemistry survey to cover 5 km untested area between Boley and Kilmichael • Define bedrock gold source through tracing of boulder train, stream source etc • Detailed prospecting at Boley and as follow-up to soil geochemistry survey ISDX: IMCP / PLU: IMCP 26 Proposed Soil Survey Knockbrandon ENE-trending Au anomaly Kilmichael & Ballyowen-Ballygarrett ENE-trending Au anomalies Proposed area to be covered by soil geochemistry survey. This would encompass targets with known bedrock Au and potentially Boley reveal additional mineralized areas.
