Survey Notes for Proposed Diamond Drilling at Coronet Hills Copper Mine

A plane table and theodolite survey of the abandoned Coronet Hills copper mine in the Northern Territory. The report describes sulphide-bearing lodes in a fracture system, mineralized with copper, lead, and arsenic, and proposes six drill holes to test extensions below old workings. The data is provided by Geoscience Australia Data and was last updated in May 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyzing geological structures of an anticlinorium based on the survey description
• Assessing mineral potential for copper, lead, and arsenic based on assay results mentioned
• Planning exploratory drilling campaigns based on the proposed six drill hole locations

Strengths

• Includes specific geological context: a survey of sulphide-bearing lodes in a fracture system on the margin of an anticlinorium
• Contains actionable proposals: six drill holes have been sited to test extensions of three swells in the lodes

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
