The survey was conducted using the newly developed airborne radiometric system by Thomson Aviation.
The data has been received and is currently being processed and evaluated, however it is already apparent that the survey is of high quality. In addition to the radiometric data, standard magnetic data was also collected.
This survey is an improvement over the regional 400 meter spaced data and has delineated seven high priority uranium anomalies that are located on or near faults. One of the targets appears to be co-incident with the intersection of the structures that host the Burrundie and Thunderball uranium deposits.
These anomalies will be focus during the next phase of work to be carried out as soon as the wet season is over, probably in March 2010.
Recent field work carried out in the vicinity of uranium target 2 & 3 included ground reconnaissance mapping, soil sampling and rock chip sampling. The company is still awaiting the assay results of this work which should be available in January 2010.
Great Western Exploration had already identified this area as being prospective for both gold and uranium mineralisation prior to the commencement of the geophysical survey.
