Mt Zephyr: Dunns Line trend - Matt leaves his desk behind and finds a few orebodies, Mt Zephyr sampling in full-swing.
Bush diary in the wilds of Canada: Today Matt presented to the Sprott conference. The presentation was extremely well received, the second photo shows the all investors holding back to ask questions (even though free drinks were being served outside). Extremely well presented and well received presentation, we had conversations with investors for the next hour and half. We have spoken with at least half a dozen Ardea shareholders today, the first day of the conference has been a success. It was a very proud Ardea moment when Matt presented today!

Goldfields prospector Dave Evans pegged the first nickel claim in WA at Comet Vale in 1961, where he mined scheelite and gold. In the 1930s he would take the community to dances at Menzies on this truck. He later mined beryl, columbite, chrysoprase and prase jade. Chrysoprase occurs throughout the KNP. The truck was also used to pull and cart sandalwood. -
Ardea Resources presented at the Australian Nickel Conference 17th October, and fielded a great deal of interest in the KNP.

Black Range Cobalt Project
May 2017
First cobalt core hole completed at Goongarrie South, KNP Cobalt Zone. Ongoing core drill program will be focussed on cobalt and will generate representative samples for developing the KNP Cobalt Zone metallurgical flow-sheet.
February 2017
Ardea personnel have been busy getting drill sites ready at KNP Cobalt and Mt Zephyr, to facilitate start of exploration programs on ASX listing.

High grade nickel-cobalt at Black Range: Facing north, this rock overhang has high grade mineralization exposed as the dark yellow mustard-coloured clay. The existing Black Range RC drill-holes are up to 400 metres apart, so we need to do in-fill drilling to work out where we site our metallurgical core holes. -
Sampling old gold mines at Ghost Rocks: Facing northwest, the old workings are running in all directions, the mine mullock seems less in volume than what you would expect for such deep shafts and best of all, not an old drill hole to be seen anywhere. All the ingredients for a bulk tonnage stockwork gold system. -
Dust devil Mt Zephyr: A zephyr is supposed to be a light wind, not like this dust devil. Mt Zephyr country is flat and featureless and highly weathered, probably reflecting intense shearing and alteration along the east side of the Celia Shear Zone. This featureless country has some the best soil gold anomalies we have seen (1163ppb at Easter Well, 273ppb at Gale), never RC drilled, unbelievable for this part of the world. -
Locating old drill holes at Taurus: Usual story, we have some 19 holes in our data base and there must be 60 scattered around Taurus, probably from 30 years ago. Only option is to find the old sample piles and sample what we can, and then decide where to drill.
