Dipole-Dipole Induced Polarisation survey finds gold prospects

Fender Geophysics conducted a Dipole-Dipole Induced Polarisation (DDIP) survey for Kalo Gold www.kalogoldcorp.com from April-May 2021 over their Qiriyaga Hill Prospect. The Qiriyaga Project survey area is located approx. 30km east of Labasa on the island of Vanua Levu in Fiji. The underlying Qiriyaga Zone is a 2.5km long mineralization trend identified by anomalous gold in soil geochemistry and trenching.

Ground Magnetics & GPR to Support Environmental Site Survey

Ground Magnetics & GPR to Support Environmental Site Survey

Fender was contracted by Harvest Scientific Services in November 2019 to conduct a multi-sensor geophysical survey over a residential property in Mittagong, NSW. A previous environmental assessment had indicated that the site overlapped with a historical shale oil processing facility.

Moving Loop Electromagnetics survey to support monitoring of derelict tailings dam

Moving Loop Electromagnetics survey to support monitoring of derelict tailings dam

Fender was contracted in 2017 to conduct a comprehensive time domain electromagnetic survey to map the underground seepage around the mines tailing pit. The aim of the project was to reveal conductivity anomalies that correlated with fluid seepage in depths of up to 50 metres adjacent to the open pit mine and the tailings dam. The data would provide vertical two-dimensional images of the subsurface that would identify areas of risk and inform the optimal placement of ground water monitoring bores.

Exploring the potential for additional groundwater supply for mine

Exploring the potential for additional groundwater supply for mine

Glencore Mining Australia were exploring the potential for additional groundwater supply for their Clermont coal mining operation. Groundwater in Cenozoic basalt supplies most landowner wells in the region but with only limited availability from isolated fracture zones. A Cenozoic gravel deposit directly underneath Clermont Mine has been the mine’s main aquifer.

IP and MT survey identifies multiple drill targets

IP and MT survey identifies multiple drill targets

Between May and August 2021 Fender Geophysics undertook a combined Magnetotellurics (MT) and Dipole-Dipole Induced Polarisation (DDIP) survey for Dart Mining (https://dartmining.com.au/). The purpose of the survey was the collection, quality control, and processing/inversion of MT/DDIP data at their Granite Flat Project to identify sites with possible copper and gold mineralisation. The survey area was located approximately 60km south-east of Albury-Wodonga, VIC.
