Curara Well Base Metals Project, 100% owned, is situated in the Doolgunna region of Western Australia immediately adjacent to Sandfire Resources NL’s tenure and along strike from the DeGrussa deposit (7.13 million tonnes at 5.2% copper and 1.9 g/t gold). Thundelarra’s tenement covers 83 square kilometres encompassing over 10 kilometres in strike length of the Jenkins Fault, a major crustal feature which bounds a prospective corridor of Proterozoic rocks.
Initial reconnaissance at Curara Well has highlighted the tenements prospectivity. In follow up to a historic copper soil anomaly, Thundelarra’s geologists collected 17 further soil samples on lines spaced 200 metres either side of an original sample line. These new samples returned assays up to 226ppm copper, confirming and extending the soil anomaly to some 400 metres in width, with a strike extent of more than one kilometre indicated.
Historic RAB drill logs confirm the presence of favourable mafic volcanic rocks in both directions along strike from the soil anomaly.
