Fontenoy
EL 8995 Fontenoy
VHMS (Au-Cu)
The Fontenoy Project contains disseminated and veined copper-gold mineralisation over a strike length of 8km. It is interpreted to represent McPhillamys-style volcanogenic hosted massive sulphide (VHMS) mineralisation.
Other prospective units within the Project area include exhalative sediments of the Yandilla Volcanics, Warrenoy Diorite and ultramafic rocks of the Wambidgee Serpentinite. The Wambidgee Serpentinite contains a number of minor podiform chromite deposits, and this differentiated ultramafic sequence is prospective for both chromite and platinum group element (PGE) mineralisation.
