The material is confined to the deposition sites of historical tailings and extends approximately 1m beneath the historical footprint into the residual soil profile. The ore consists of oxidised tailings containing pyrite and arsenopyrite-associated gold, which was not recovered in the initial treatment process.Sheba Fault The Sheba Fault project straddles the contact between the arenites of the Moodies Group to the north (Eureka Syncline) and the Fig Tree Group’s greywacke and shale to the south (Ulundi Syncline), like the stratigraphic occurrence of Sheba Mine. The contact is marked by the presence of the regionally identifiable Sheba Fault. The two synclines (Eureka and Ulundi) were refolded due to the immense force present during deformation, resulting in back-to-back isoclinal folds that dip steeply to the south. The mineralisation of the Sheba Fault orebodies is encapsulated in a shear envelope of the Sheba Fault, ranging in width from 5m to 25m. The gold mineralisation occurs predominantly in finely disseminated sulphide minerals (mainly pyrite) and native gold.
