Samples of volcanic ash obtained from the Mount Schank area were tested to find if they would act as a satisfactory, naturally occurring raw material substitute for artificial fly ash presently used as a low cost ingredient in concrete mixes, that is...

Similarities between the Athabasca and Cariewerloo Basins were first proposed by PIRSA geologists in the 1990s. Subsequently, the uranium potential of the Cariewerloo Basin has been heavily promoted by PIRSA. Both are intracratonic basins containing...

The Burra (Burra) Mine, situated 150 km north of Adelaide within the Adelaide Geosyncline, produced 2.7 million tonnes of copper ore in two major mining phases - 1845-1877 and 1970-1981. The first phase was initially progressed by underground...

The Burra mine 3D model was constructed using a georeferenced version of the original hand-drafted base map, which included elevation data points surveyed during the final phase of mining. These elevation locations and associated height data were...

The SADME 1980-1981 Burra mine field mapping project was undertaken at short notice, in order to collect unique geological data and location survey information from the lower benches of the then actively worked open pit mine, before the newly exposed...

Sedimentary-hosted copper deposits are the second most important source of copper in the world, as well as being the most important source of cobalt, and fourth among all classes of ore deposits in production of silver. The Neoproterozoic sedimentary...

Upper crustal strata forming the northern to central Flinders Ranges area comprise uplifted and eroded remnants of openly folded sedimentary rocks that were deposited in an intra-continental arm of the Neoproterozoic to Early Cambrian Adelaide...

This publication has been compiled from a display prepared for the launch of SADME Bulletin 53, held at the Australian Mineral Foundation on 7 December 1987. The importance and diversity of commodities found in the Geosyncline are highlighted in the...

The geology of the Lake Gilles locale in the south-west of the PORT AUGUSTA 1:250k map sheet area is poorly understood. Outcrop of basement rocks there is sparse, and typically occurs along the margins of the salt lake, where it is highly weathered....

The YARDEA 1:250,000 scale regional geological map area straddles the southern margin of the Gawler Ranges on northern Eyre Peninsula. The only major township within the area is Minnipa, with Kimba and Wudinna both located immediately south of the...

The KIMBA 1:250 000 geological map sheet (hereafter referred to as KIMBA) lies in central Eyre Peninsula, extending between latitudes 33° to 34° S and longitudes 135° to 136°30'E (Fig 1). The principal towns are Kimba and Cleve, with smaller towns at...

The GOMA basement drilling program was named after the Gawler-Officer-Musgrave-Amadeus deep seismic reflection survey line, that was completed in 2008 by Geoscience Australia (GA) as part of its Onshore Energy Security Program. Funding for the seismic...

This monograph presents an integration and summary of all new data, and a consolidation of current concepts and ideas on the geological history, discovered fields and petroleum potential of the Otway Basin in South Australia. Many of these...

TARGET: Possible Tertiary marine placer deposits of heavy mineral sands (ilmenite, rutile, zircon) on the south-eastern margin of the Eucla Basin in the Nunjikompita - Hiltaba area, 100 km east of Ceduna. EXPLORATION: A consultants' photogeological...
