Survey Description
Diamond exploration programs were carried out by Covello, Bryan and Associates Ltd. on behalf of Sanfred Resources Ltd. in the Tarantula Lake area, Northwest Territories, located approximately 25 km northwest of Tourgis Lake.
In August 1993, a helicopter supported program was carried out to assess geophysical anomalies and a total of 38 till samples were collected down ice from these anomalies. The samples were sent to the Saskatchewan Research Council in Saskatoon for processing. The samples have been SEM checked and data are available.
In 1994, a helicopter supported program was carried out to follow up on 20 geophysical targets. Two targets could not be explained by a ground check and geological mapping, geophysical surveys and till sampling were carried out on them. No indicator minerals were found in these till samples.
The data can be found in Nunavut Assessment Report 083375.
