Yandal Resources Ltd. commenced flying a high-resolution aeromagnetic survey over the Sim's Find and New England Granite prospects within its Barwidgee Project, located approximately 60km south of Northern Star's +10moz Jundee and Nimary gold mines. The survey will provide Yandal with important detailed aeromagnetic data over both the Sim's Find and New England Granite prospects that will be used to refine targets for future drilling programs. The program involves flying 50m spaced lines halfway between existing multi-client 50m spaced survey data to generate effectively 25m spaced lines after all the data is merged. Broad-spaced reconnaissance style step out drilling has confirmed the mineralisation continues at least a further 1.2km north-west along strike.

Gold mineralisation is associated with quartz veins, sulphides and shears hosted within a coarse-grained dolerite and basalt sequence. Analysis of broader spaced historic aeromagnetic data indicates that mineralisation corresponds with a distinct magnetic low within the host sequence, potentially representing alteration associated with mineralisation. The new detailed date generated from this survey will provide far greater resolution of the host sequence and zones of alteration.
