The experiment was performed at iThemba LABS using the AFRODITE array. The y-y coincidence data in two different experiments using different geometries of the y-detectors are obtained. The analysis of results, concentrating on the measurement of Directional Correlations in Oriented (DCO) state ratios and anisotropy polarization lead to extension of the level scheme up to energy E=8.3 MeV and spin I=29h. The dipole bands consist of Ml and E2 cross-over transitions were observed at higher excitation energies and spins.
