Annotation A ground-truthing survey was conducted in the Interview River area, in northwest Tasmania, to identify any relationships between aeromagnetic anomalies and mineralisation. The survey found granite-related Sn-W, and sediment-hosted Cu and Pb (? REE, Th and U) vein deposits, and confirmed that some of the mineralisation is associated with strong aeromagnetic anomalies, but the depth and origin of the anomalies are not known. Only small magnetic units were discovered.
