The geology of the Rye Park district  

Authors / CoAuthors

Burton, G.M. | Smith, K.G.

Abstract

An area of approximately 32 square miles in the vicinity of Rye Park has been mapped in greater detail than that of previous regional surveys. Three possible tungsten-bearing areas have been delineated as warranting magnetometric and plane-table surveys. An extension of each of these three areas is indicated. Attention is drawn to copper, tin, silver, lead, and zinc mineralisation of the area, and it is considered that there are possibilities of finding payable orebodies containing these metals.
