By GlobalDataThe Fire Eye property includes one unsurveyed mineral disposition MC00015792 covering a total area of 4,496.66ha.
During the 1971, 1977 and 1978 exploration programmes at the property, anomalous uranium was identified during airborne and ground EM surveys, gravity surveys, geological mapping, diamond drilling and scintillometer surveys.
In March 2022, exploration work was carried out on the property that included a high-resolution helicopter-borne magnetic survey.
According to the data interpretation based on the survey, which covered 1,039 line kilometres over a single block, the area is divided into three major magnetic regions that are distinguished based on the strength of magnetic responses.
Vortex plans to continue to assess other energy metal properties.
