Structurally controlled deposit within a NNW trending shear associated with the regional Zuleika Shear Zone, on the lithological contact between the Victorious Basalt and Black Flag Volcanic Sediments. Mineralisation occurs in laminated quartz veins, brecciation and alteration zones with widths ranging from 0.2-20m along strike length of 0.3-1.0km.

The Frog’s Leg deposit is located in the southern portion of the Kundana mining area, within the Achaean Norseman-Wiluna greenstone belt of the Eastern Goldfields Province. The Kundana gold deposits are structurally related to the Zuleika Shear Zone, a regional NNW-trending shear zone that juxtaposes the Ora Banda domain to the east and the Coolgardie domain to the west. The Frog’s Leg deposit is located on the sheared contact between the porphyritic “cat rock” (regionally known as the Victorious Basalt) and volcaniclastic rocks of Black Flag Beds.

Mineralisation at Frog’s Leg is hosted within a number of steeply dipping NNW-SSE structures that are vertical or dipping steeply (~80 degrees) to the west. Surface and underground drilling intersect the mineralisation at an angle to minimise bias.

At underground mine, Frog’s Leg mining methodology is top-down bench stoping with paste fill.
