Dominion has the option to earn a 70% interest in the Northling Project from PacMag Metals.

The project, located 170km north of Wiluna in Western Australia, occurs in an area of limited outcrop on the western edge of the Earaheedy Basin within the Stanley Fold Belt. Local geology indicates a folded and steep dipping sedimentary package of rocks.

Past exploration in the area has been solely for diamonds, with the most comprehensive work carried out by DeBeers in the early 1990’s and subsequent diamond exploration by Northling Pty Ltd in the mid 1990’s. Since this time, no other exploration is reported to have occurred.

Of interest to Dominion is a magnetic feature in the centre of the tenement. This feature was tested with ground magnetics and drilling by De Beers in 1991 focused on delineating a kimberlite, (De Beers did not assay for copper) and additional drilling by Northling in 1994. One of the Northling RAB holes (DH3), intersected copper sulphide mineralisation at the bottom of the hole grading 4m @ 2.43% copper from 58 – 62 metres (only the last 4 metres of hole assayed for copper) associated with a strongly altered chlorite-sericite schist (2009 petrography). The geology above this mineralised interval, and also encountered in the other (shallow) holes, is a quartz arenite and does not appear to be related to the geology encountered in the mineralised interval.

No magnetic susceptibility work has been completed at the bottom of these drill holes and it seems likely that the magnetic anomaly remains undrilled. Modelling of the ground magnetic data supports the concept that the targeted magnetic feature is dipping to the south just beneath the anomalous intercept.

A field visit by Dominion confirmed (by handheld XRF unit) anomalous copper values from weathered and ferruginous sediments, up to 4,500ppm Cu, overlying the magnetic feature (see figure below). These copper values are considered to be highly anomalous. The stratigraphy appears to be tightly folded nearest the hinge of the magnetic feature and dips to the south in the area of anomalous copper in rock chips.

In addition to the confirmation sampling, a four line ground magnetometer survey was completed by Dominion. This survey matches well with the original De Beers ground magnetic traverse.
