PT ISCO IRON
POLEWALI MANDAR
SULAWESI BARAT
Officially the exploration activity PT ISCO IRON has started in Mei 2014 with hiring one
internal geologist in site base and assisted with one external geologist (senior level) in Jakarta
base.
The board of top management PT ISCO IRON has decided to start mining operation on the iron
ore outcrops of block 4 and re-activation old pit mine in block 3 due to iron ore barging
schedule has near and the previous data shown iron ore resources which sufficient. Parallels with
that, the exploration team decided to collect geological data surfaces in around the block 3 and 4
and some drilling activities to support the mining operations and test hypotheses while the results
of detailed mapping of blocks 3 and 4.
Exploration re-conducted after mining operations have finished mining in outcrops of block 4
caused there is no longer the iron ores exposed on the surface and top management decided to
focus on exploration activities.
With limited human resources (geology), the exploration team has embarked on a detailed
mapping around the block 3 and 4. On month of June 2014 soil sampling has been conduct by
consultant university consultant Veterans National Development University (UPNVY). Regional
geological mapping has also been carried out by 2 (two) student thesis UPNVY fully assisted by
geologists ISCO. Starting from August 2014 the volume of exploration work has increased with
the addition surveyors and laboratory supervisor for internal PT ISCO. The exploration programs
had conduct geophysical IP survey with volume almost 40 km line in the potential block, ground
magnetic survey and had a MoU with the drilling contractor for the drilling campaign in the
1000m and engagement contract also with an independent laboratory to analyze samples
(Intertek Services).
The goals of exploration programs are to answering the availability of iron ore deposit in PT
ISCO IRON tenement with do exploration which have responsible in accordance with the
scientific rules. The exploration team decided to begin exploration activity from the beginning,
starting with conduct geological surface data regional map with scale 1:25,000; detail geological
map scale 1:2,000; geochemical sampling; geophysical survey; topographic survey;
trenching/test pitting and stages drilling , etc.

4 TIME FRAME
Exploration time frame is planned for one year starting from month of May 2014 with scope of
work to support mining activity and do exploration programs. The time frame shown in Table
4.1 showing blue lines is the actual activity and the grey ones is planned activity:
To more clearly knowing lithology unit, the contractor (PT AMEX) already do survey of
“vertical sounding” as much 22 point in block 1-3-4 and 2. The contractor already submit IP
daily progress in 2D section and for 3D features will be submitted 2 weeks after work finish and
the contractors receive electrode survey by TS (Total Station).
Team IP 2 has finished conducting a survey and team IP 1 in completing the work, according to
the plan, the survey will finish in 1 week in December 2014. (Figure 5.2 Induced Polarization
Progress)
5.4 DRILLING
Drilling activity has use internal drilling units the models is GY-200 made in china and has drill
capacity ~150m depth. This drilling unit used external power supply with capacity 40kV, this
time we are already have internal driller which has trained/work with china drill master. The
exploration team eager to used and develop the human resources which already has.

5.6 SURVEY
PT ISCO IRON already hires ones surveyor in 1st week of July 2014, the main task is due to
topography survey in IUP tenement and support mining survey in volumetric of OB (Over
Burden) and ore getting, besides that the team survey have task to stake out point of drill holes
and pick up survey of IP (Induce Polarization) electrode.
5.6.1 Topography
Previous PT ISCO IRON has had a topographic contour in blocks 1-3-4-7, but it does not match
the contour with the actual surfaces. Caused of it, PT ISCO IRON had hire a consultant PT GMS
