  Strategy puts Kanowna Belle in drivers seat
With AurionGold intersecting further strong grades at depth at its flagship Kanowna Belle mine, located 18km north-east of Kalgoorlie, the company is deciding whether to sink an expensive shaft to extract the precious ore or to continue relying on truck haulage operations that have proved to be extremely cost-efficient to date.
The results show a significant body of favourable data to the east of blocks C and D, indicating both the potential for a new mineralised zone and the possibility of a high grade depth extension to the east of Block E. Further drilling is scheduled.
Kanowna Belle uses the system of pyramid mining, spreading stress points across a broad base and reducing pressure on workings.

 Kanowna Belle Gold Deposit - Exploration History & Geology - Kim Stanton-Cook - 1992
Kanowna Belle is now described as a series of stacked lenses or shoots, striking northeast and dipping moderately (~60 degrees) to the southeast, closely related to the Fitzroy Fault.
Kanowna Belle, which is topographically recessive, lies off the trend of the famous Boulder-Lefroy Corridor, strikes northeast and occurs in an area of felsic volcanics, would appear to defy conventional wisdom.
Kanowna Belle is hosted by coarse felsic fragmental mass-flow sediments, interbedded with ultramafic clast-bearing polymict conglomerates and felsic fragmentals, all intruded by quartz and feldspar-phyric porphyries.

 Dewatering process cuts costs at Kanowna Belle
In September 2001 Kanowna Belle installed three Eimco Agidisc filters at its paste backfill plant to prepare tailings for use as backfill in the site’s mined-out stopes.
At Kanowna Belle, tailings are taken from the mill through the thickener and then on to the Agidisc filters.
Kanowna Belle engineering specialist Alan Welsh says that although backfilling with tailings is a long used method, their way of doing it with a paste made from the tailings and cement provides a much safer fill than other backfill methods.

 CDNN :: One Obscure Clue Leads Divers to Gallipoli Shipwreck
The Kanowna, once a hospital ship for wounded soldiers from Gallipoli, was found on Anzac weekend, the landing's 90th anniversary.

Kanowna Bell is 18 km from Kalgoorlie, also within the Archaean Norseman-Wiluna greenstone belt.
It lies under a 40 m thick blanket of saprolite and is within a sequence that comprises a lower mafic-ultramafic sequence and an upper succession of felsic volcanics, polymictic conglomerate, felsic conglomerate and coarse felsic grits and arenites, with common porphyry intrusives.
The principal hosts are sediments within the felsic sequence and the Kanowna Belle feldspar porphyry, with the ore occurring as a series of stacked lenses.

His role at View Resources is to manage exploration and geological practices on existing projects and to assist in the assessment of potential new acquisition opportunities.
One major advance was the recognition, by Project Geologist Terry Peachey, of a strike-slip planar shear zone, the Fitzroy Fault, and the parallelism of the main mineralised lenses to this fault.
Returning to the evolution of the Kanowna Belle concept, the single most important factor was the recognition, again by Terry Peachey after three angled core holes, of the Fitzroy Fault.
