Summary:

The gold mineralisation at Majestic and Imperial deposits is hosted by a quartz diorite stock on the western side of the regional scale Yindarlgooda Dome. Gold zones are characterised by open breccias, quartz veins and zones of foliation associated with pyrite + chalcopyrite + pyrrhotite, overprinting silicasericite alteration. The highest grade gold-copper zones at Imperial are characterised by a micro breccia sulphide fracture network fill with semi-massive sulphides that almost completely overprints the silicasericite alteration, in discrete zones that are up to 5m true width.
