Genesis Resources Ltd, have held the Gladstone EPM 15771, since June 2007.
It was acquired for the purposes of Manganese exploration over an area surrounding the old Mt Millar Manganese mine – a small deposit mined intermittently from 1895 to 1960.
A number of smaller mine and occurrences also occurred within the original tenement.
Exploration by Genesis has included geological mapping, rock chip geochemistry, Induced Polarization (IP), Airborne EM, drilling and a Scoping Study.
The mineralisation at Mt Millar is low grade and appears to have been tested by drilling.
Most of the other significant workings are now surrounded by housing or infrastructure.
No other targets were generated from the geophysics or mapping campaigns.
The tenement also abuts the growing Calliope Conservation Park.
