The new ground includes the previously discovered PL01 kimberlite, making the total of known kimberlites held in the project area to 24, which has now been increased to 29 with this season's new discoveries.
The company plans to fly EM time domain and magnetic surveys, a method that did not exist back in the 1990's. New filters and ways of integrating the data can highlight the kimberlites especially in areas with noisy backgrounds. The time domain EM data can be modeled in three dimensions, which helps discriminate conductive lake sediments and country rocks from the kimberlites.
