Abstract

Trace Energy Services was contracted by the Australian National Seismic Imaging Resource (ANSIR) to conduct the WA seismic 2004 survey in the eastern & northern Goldfields region of Western Australia. There were 148.59 km of 2D seismic reflection data recorded, 137.54 km over 29 traverses using Litton 315 Paystars and 11.05 km over 5 traverses using a single IVI Minivib as source. All lines were situated within the lease boundaries of gold mining companies, namely, Sons of Gwalia (Tarmoola & Gwalia) (L165), Placer Dome (Kanowna Belle, Wallaby, Granny Smith, Lancefield & Mt Morgans) (L166), Anglo Gold (Sunrise Dam) (L167) and Goldfields (St Ives at Kambalda) (L168),

Lineage

The objective the seismic lines 04SGW-G1 to 04SGW-G4 at Sons of Gwalia Minesite, Leonora is to assist in determining the structural framework in the area in the immediate vicinity of the Sons of Gwalia and Tower Hill deposits to a depth of 2km. The work is also aimed at determining whether any major structural offsets disrupt the orebody down plunge of the existing Gwalia Deeps drilling. ~17 km of seismic is planned over 4 lines. The objective the seismic lines 04SGW-T1 to 04SGW-T3 at this location is to attempt to image the shape of granodiorites, particularly the lower surface of the mine granodiorite and determine the orientation of the major structures and stratigraphy in the upper 1.5 km. ~15 km of seismic is planned over 3 lines.
