Location

McArthur (EL25272) is located 70km northwest of the major McArthur River lead-zinc deposit and has several small occurrences of copper, lead, barite and manganese. It overlies the unconformable contact between the lower McArthur Group sediments and overlying Roper River clastic sediments to the west, and therefore may be prospective for unconformity associated uranium mineralisation as well as sediment-hosted base metals in the basement along the major north-trending major fault zone separating these units.
