Location of the Peak Hill Project |
The Peak Hill Gold Mine is located 400km north west of Sydney between the large regional towns of Parkes and Dubbo in the Central West of New South Wales
|
|
History of the Peak Hill Project |
Gold was first discovered in the area in 1889 and a substantial hard rock mine operated from 1904 to 1917
|
|
Geology of the Peak Hill Project |
|
Detailed geological mapping and interpretation of aeromagnetic data have shown that the project area is cored by andesitic volcanic and volcaniclastic rocks which have a general north-south strike, with observed easterly facings east of the mine area. Significant transported cover obscures the sequence to the west. Shaley sediments are common further to the east.
