The project area has been shown to contain a number of clusters of first, second and third order radiometric anomalies that have never been investigated (Figures 48 to 52). The radiometric anomalies are associated with favourable lithologies to potentially hosted uranium deposits as the Alligator River Uranium Field region which lies to the north.

In terms of both regional and project scale structure the Arunta Block Project areas are ideally situated for metamorphic- and unconformity-style uranium deposits.

● Regionally, the project area is located south of the Woolgni/Edith River uranium field which contains uranium deposits in the Pine Creek Geosyncline.

● The Pine Creek Geosyncline accounts for the known mined out uranium resources in the Northern Territory, but also contains economic quantities of gold, base metals and iron ore.

● The tenements have geological potential to host the favourable metamorphic-related model in which oxidised fluids carry soluble uranium which can be deposited within a metamorphic terrain and on the contact of metamorphic basement rocks to form unconformity uranium-style deposits.
