During the sixth year of tenure of the Warramboo licence, now held by Adelaide Exploration Limited as renewed EL 2846 covering the same 1363 square km area as before, the only exploration-related activity which occurred was the acquisition during...

Monax Mining has been exploring the subsurface geology of three licences in the Mount Hope region of south-western Eyre Peninsula, seeking possible economic komatiite - hosted nickel deposits and also any felsic volcanic sediment - hosted massive...

During the sixth year of the project, licensee Adelaide Resources did not do any exploration directed at gold or base metals that might possibly occur on the subject tenements. However, its joint venture partner Quasar Resources undertook significant...

During licence Year 4, UraniumSA undertook the following work on EL 3652: - pattern drilling of 232 rotary mud holes totalling 18,416 m, targeting the Blackbush and Plumbush prospects. - core drilling totalling 876 m in 8 holes, to characterise...

A high amplitude, linear N-S trending magnetic feature, dubbed the Coffin Bay Magnetic Anomaly, and the recognition of basement lithologies analogous to those of metallogenically prospective late Archaean terranes in Canada, were the impetus for...

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 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 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...

A licence composed of four separate small sub-blocks which generally lie ~90 to 120 km north-northeast of Port Lincoln is being explored primarily for extensions to known graphite-bearing horizons which may exist to the north and south of the...

An area located in the Cowell Hills is being explored for possible economic buried iron ore deposits. The desired commodity is DSO (Direct Shipping Ore) haematite mineralisation similar to that of the Middleback Range iron deposits, where pods of...

Nearly half of the area of EL 4665 has been relinquished after the joint venture partners decided that it holds diminished potential for the discovery of economic uranium mineralisation that could be associated with Olympic Dam style IOCG deposits, or...

Exploration in an area centred on Smoky Bay, 40 km south-east of Ceduna, targeted shear - hosted mineralisation associated with granitoids of the Hiltaba and St Peter Suites. Several lineaments were identified from aeromagnetic data. Undertaking...

Following the farm-in of Anglo American Exploration to this tenement in March 2003, new activity has focussed on the rapid definition of drilling targets in a search for possible Archaean basement volcanic or sediment-hosted base metal massive...

Geochemical and isotopic data from mantle-derived mafic rocks provide important constraints on our understanding of the composition and evolution of the lithosphere through time. Since the lithosphere is sensitive to tectonic processes such as...

Exploration for unconformity-related uranium deposits has been performed within the subject ELs by Pancontinental Mining on behalf of joint venture partners since 1979. The initial exploration concept was to look for economic deposits occurring at or...

The Mineral Systems Drilling Program (MSDP) was a $3.5M cash and $4.11M in-kind collaborative drill program involving government, researchers, service providers and the minerals industry. The objective of the MSDP was to further the understanding of...

This geochronological study was undertaken within the scope of the Mineral Systems Drilling Program (MSDP), a program that was aimed at improving the understanding of the geology and prospectivity of the southern Gawler Ranges margin area on northern...

Two adjacent licence areas forming part of a contiguous set of project tenements in the central Eyre Peninsula region are being explored by Adelaide Resources (AR) primarily for gold and base metals, which it is thought may occur in buried deposits...

Renewed diamond exploration has been conducted in a part of the western Eyre Peninsula where numerous kimberlite indicator mineral (KIM) anomalies occur in surficial sediments, and where the four adjoining licence areas involved lie in close proximity...
