Greenvale Energy Ltd. has commenced a high-resolution airborne electromagnetic (AEM) survey across Exploration Licence 34157, located in the southern section of its Thunderball uranium project in the Northern Territory.
The approximately 950 line-kilometre SkyTEM survey will infill existing regional data to deliver significantly enhanced geological resolution.
Designed with 400-metre flight-line spacing, the airborne program aims to map subsurface paleochannel systems, identify fluid-transport pathways, and pinpoint structural features associated with uranium mineralisation across the Pine Creek Orogen region.
Flying operations are scheduled for completion in mid-November, with final processed survey results expected in late December or early January 2027.
The geophysical campaign is supported by co-funding from the Northern Territory government through Round 19 of its Geophysics and Drilling Collaboration Grant scheme.
Greenvale Managing Director Alex Cheeseman said the survey represents a key step in systematically advancing the project toward drill-ready status.
“This latest survey represents another important step in systematically assessing the uranium potential at Thunderball and positioning Greenvale for an expanded drilling campaign in 2027 to unlock the next generation of significant uranium discoveries in the NT,” Cheeseman said.
“Throughout 2026, we have applied multiple exploration techniques, systematically building the geological picture and progressing the project from broad greenfield exploration toward a pipeline of higher-confidence drill targets.”
The refined AEM data will directly inform regional geological modelling and guide target design for Greenvale’s planned 2027 drilling program, with regulatory permitting and stakeholder engagements across Douglas Station already underway.
Concurrently, Greenvale is initiating follow-up ground field investigations, including geological mapping, portable XRF analysis, and radiometric sampling, across its Elkedra and Henbury projects to evaluate additional regional anomalies.
