Summary
The Wellington project (New South Wales, Australia) hosts several targets, including the Galwadgere copper-gold deposit, which is located 3 km from the main Western Railway and 30 km south of the porphyry style gold-copper mineralisation at Glen Hollow within the Bodangora Project. (May/11)
COPPER-GOLD deposit.
Geology
The Galwadgere deposit is hosted by Silurian felsic volcanics. The main zone of mineralisation outcrops over a strike length of approximately 350 metres and is modelled over a total strike length of about 500 metres extending below Permian cover to the north. The zone dips east at approximately 55°, plunges north at about 30° and varies in thickness from 5 to 35 metres. The mineralisation consists of disseminated and stringer pyrite-chalcopyrite lenses within altered felsic volcanic rocks. The system is structurally overturned and appears to be capped by a lead-zinc-silver-gold rich bedded massive sulphide. (May/11)
