TNG Ltd, under wholly owned subsidiary Enigma Mining Limited, is proposing to develop and operate the Mt Peake Project, a polymetallic (titanium, vanadium, iron) mine, located approximately 235 km north-northwest of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory (NT). GHD Pty Ltd (GHD) has been engaged by TNG to prepare the NOI and to progress environmental baseline studies and any approvals documentation for the Project.

TNG LTD MOUNT PEAKE PROJECT PAGE | 26 of occurrence, colonisation and extinction to be observed and quantified. Measurements of occurrence have been implemented for GB and found to be wholly effective (Lavery and Kirkpatrick 1997; Southgate et al., 2007; Cramer et al., 2017). It is for these reasons that occupancy modelling is recommended as a method for future monitoring of GB in the Project area. 5.5 MONITORING 5.5.1 Survey Protocol The collection of reliable survey data using a standard survey method is a primary requirement for accurately determining the occupancy of GB (Cramer et al. 2017). Sampling must be undertaken by individuals skilled in the identification of GB sign, including scats, foot imprints and diggings (either foraging or burrows). Long linear transects, as per the methods of this present survey, provide an opportunity to document the degree to which GB sub-popualtions are isolated (Cramer et al. 2017). Transects are to be one kilometre in length and traversed by foot for intensive diurnal search of GB sign. A minimum of six transects are to be grouped to increase the probability of detection provided GB are in the area. Field personnel are to walk with a handheld Global Positioning System (GPS) unit. Track logs to be recorded on the GPS to ensure maximum coverage of the areas and minimum overlap of search effort. GPS track logs enable the collection of specific data relating to survey effort and intensity which can be used, if required, as a covariate in analysis where unexpected outcomes need to be cross-checked against survey protocols to ensure that there has not been a failing in survey method that has resulted in no detection. The locations of GB sign are to be recorded with the GPS units. For the purpose of occupancy modelling, detection and non-detection data are to be recorded at each site to form a detection history. Each surveyor is to score the survey with either a 1 to denote detection of GB sign, or a 0 indicating non-detection of GB sign. This will create a detection history at each site of 00, 01, 10 or 11. Scats, burrows and diggings are all acceptable sign of detection that indicate that individuals occur locally. It is not necessary to observe actual individuals in order to effect an accurate or adequate occupancy modelling.
