The Eloise deposit is a blind deposit concealed by 60 to 70m of sediments of the Eromanga Basin on the eastern margin of the Mount Isa |
Inlier. |
The mineralisation comprises high-grade chalcopyrite + pyrrhotite hosted by mafic silicate alteration localised on a major shear zone |
(Levuka Shear Zone). Alteration and mineralisation is controlled by both ductile and brittle structures. |
Recent drilling at Eloise Deeps has identified another mineralised body to the east of B Lode called Eastern Lode. This has increased |
resources extending the mine life for a further 3 years. |
