Mineralisation, with the exception of a brecciated zone between 105.61 and 106.20 m, is weak in the sedimentary rocks of borehole 8. Cu levels are lower than those in any of the other boreholes with the exception of the lower part of borehole 1. There is no general correspondence of high Cu levels with intrusion breccias. There is no substantial enrichment in any of the other chalcophile elements determined, 45 ppm Pb in a veined magnetite sandstone is the only outlying high result. Some of the highest Fe results in the quartz wackes, for example 8.6% Fe between 99 m and 100 m and 8.1% Fe between 105.61 m and 106.20 m, correspond with zones of relatively heavy pyrit isation and intrusion breccias. W levels (up to 9 ppm) are higher in the sedimentary than in the igneous rocks and much higher
