| History of the Wallah Wallah Project |
|
The historic Wallah Wallah silver-
lead-zinc mine was reportedly discovered in 1889 and mined intermittently until it was abandonned in 1919.
Historic workings include a main shaft, approximately 50m deep, and
two smaller shafts, 25m and 30m deep. Mining occurred at the 15 and 30m levels along a strike
length of approximately 100m.

| Geology of the Wallah Wallah Project |
|
|
The mineralisation occurs in a shear zone striking north-south and dipping almost vertically with
an observed width at surface of 3-5m. Historic dumps show sulphide mineralisation as well as slag
from a smelter which operated on the site in the early 1900s
