WA – E69/4432 Balladonia – untested gravity core beneath a barren-topped, magnetite-bearing intrusion
Balladonia is a nickel–copper–PGE, copper–gold and rare-earth target on the buried south-eastern margin of the Albany–Fraser Orogen — the orogen that hosts Nova–Bollinger — under some of the thinnest Eucla Basin cover anywhere on the belt's eastern run: about 37 m. The target has already been drilled, once. In 2011 Enterprise Metals put a single EIS co-funded hole (BLRCD007) into the centre of a ~2,300 m circular magnetic anomaly that is coincident with a ~9 mGal residual Bou


WA - E28/3605 Titan - coherent copper–gold–bismuth–silver hydrothermal association
Titan is a copper–gold–bismuth target in the Fraser Range of Western Australia — the same belt, and the same operator, as the Nova–Bollinger nickel–copper–cobalt mine. This target has already been drilled: in 2021 IGO put a single 634 m diamond hole (21AFDD201) straight through it under the Government's Exploration Incentive Scheme. But IGO drilled it for a Nova‑style magmatic nickel sulphide body, found no nickel — and in doing so cored a coherent copper–gold–bismuth signal
