Abstract
The Phyllis May prospect is about 29 km west of Georgetown, north Queensland (Fig. 1). It was discovered in 1970 during geological prospecting by Central Coast Exploration NL, and it was soon established that the deposit was of the porphyry-copper type (ORourke, 1971). In 1975 evidence of similar mineralisation was recognised at Mount Turner, 11 km west-northwest of Georgetown (Fig. 1), by officers of the Bureau of Mineral Resources and the Geological Survey of Queensland. Stream-sediment sampling was carried out in the two areas during 1976 to test the applicability of this technique for detecting similar deposits in other parts of the region.
