Stavely Minerals said it has completed a 3,700 line-kilometres airborne gravity gradiometer survey over the Hawkstone Project. The data processing is being carried out, with results expected in four to six weeks.

Stavely Minerals executive chair and managing director Chris Cairns said: “The Hawkstone Project is an exceptional exploration opportunity in a geological setting that has demonstrated prospectivity and fertility.

“This new gravity data will provide an independent and very complementary dataset of bedrock geophysical properties.

“Notably, the gravity and magnetic data penetrates the shallow transported cover/black soil plains in the region that otherwise obscure much of the basement geology. We look forward to the results of this gravity gradiometer and magnetic survey, which we expect will reveal numerous targets that will need to be followed up and tested in the months and years ahead.”
