Mineralisation at Aurora is different to established Platreef-type mineralisation.
- class="label">•
Base metal sulphides are hosted by leucocratic not melanocratic rocks.
- class="label">•
Pigeonite and orthopyroxene co-exist in the mineralised zone.
- class="label">•
Mineralogy and geochemistry are consistent with the Upper Main Zone.

Aurora-type mineralization may be traced along strike for > 20 km to north and south.
