Activities report to shareholders

Extract from Phoenix Copper Limited Report to Shareholders June Quarter 2009:
At Princess Royal - 1,957 FPXRF analyses and 12 rock chip samples were taken during the period. This work defined a 3 km long NNW trending anomaly centered on the old Princess Royal Mine. This recent sampling has covered most of the prospective stratigraphy between the old workings at the Burra Monster Mine and Princess Royal and has identified two new copper anomalies:

  • Stein Hill, a two km long north north west striking anomaly with copper values to 2200ppm centred 1km south of Stein Hill; and
  • Burra Creek, a 5km long north north west striking anomaly with copper values to 2022ppm in the creek between Burra and the Princess Royal homestead.”
