%X The Tusker gold deposit is located in the Lake Victoria Goldfields of Tanzania. The deposit contains total estimated resources of 123.27 Mt at 1.15g/t Au, as at 5th September, 2006. Geophysical techniques trialled over the deposit include down hole measurements, airborne time domain electromagnetics, dipole-dipole induced polarisation and resistivity and airborne magnetics. Petrophysical measurements suggest the deposit is associated with a conductive and chargeable signature. This is confirmed by airborne EM and dipole-dipole IP and resistivity data. Magnetic data map the unmineralised magnetic mudstone package overlying the deposit, and show that stratigraphy is deformed.
