A group of unworked lead-zinc-silver-copper prospects located approximately 110km north of Wiluna, Western Australia. Rumble Resources currently owns most of the ground. The project area covers the inferred unconformity contact between the overlying Frere Iron Formation and Navajos Sabkha Unit with underlying Yelma Formation (dolostones and siliciclastic sediments) of the Palaeoproterozoic Earaheedy Basin. The mineralisation is variable in style and mostly structurally controlled, in unconformities, fault breccias and veins plus possible stratabound Mississippi Valley style deposits.
