An area located adjacent to the southern margin of the Gawler Ranges, that includes some exposures of Mesoproterozoic Gawler Range Volcanics (GRV), and which at its southern boundary lies approximately 15 km north-east of the Menninnie Dam Pb-Zn-Ag...

An area of southern Eyre Peninsula consisting of two separate tenement subgroups located in the Port Lincoln west and Cummins districts respectively is being explored for possible economic shallowly buried stratabound occurrences of haematite and...

The central portion of EL 5791 covering 77 square km or half of the originally granted licence area has been relinquished due to its now perceived diminished prospectivity for economic graphite, cobalt or zinc mineralisation. No field work was done on...

Exploration Licence 5870 ‘Carpie Puntha’, held by Archer Exploration Limited (Archer) is located on the eastern Eyre Peninsula within the Cleve Domain of the Gawler Craton. The presence of the Middleback Jaspilite provides for a small range of...

Two portions which constitute the majority of the two sub-blocks which form EL 5791, together covering 63 square km or ~82% of the formerly held area, have been relinquished due to their now perceived diminished prospectivity for economic graphite,...

A small part, just 8 square km, of the Cleve Uplands district thought to contain outcrops of the Lower and Upper Middleback Jaspilite stratigraphic units has been explored for possible economic buried copper, gold, manganese and iron ore occurrences....

During 2010-2011, the third year of the Gum Flat Iron Ore Project, owner Lincoln Minerals' exploration activities included: - Planning, site preparation and supervision of an RC and aircore drilling program; - Surveying and vegetation clearing for...

Most of a small licence area located ~19 km west-northwest of Cleve has been surrendered following the completion of a helicopter-borne EM survey over the entire tenement during July 2012, looking for signs of possible buried graphite mineralisation...

An area covering the northern end of the Campoona Syncline is being explored for possible economic buried graphite formed within Palaeoproterozic schistose rocks, which may exist as northern extensions to the Central Campoona graphite resource as well...

A single diamond drillhole (TD 362 m) put in to test the Kooralla Magnetic Ridge encountered granite and an augen gneiss/amphibolite schist sequence that is possibly part of the Lincoln Complex. Minor pyrite, chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite were present...

TARGET: Stratiform lead-zinc-silver mineralisation of the Broken Hill or Aggeneys - Gamsberg type, associated with banded iron formations in Early Proterozoic metasediments. EXPLORATION: Data from the 1975 joint SADME / BMR Barna 1:100 000 scale...

TARGET: Possible commercial Menninnie Dam type stratabound or stratiform base metal deposits in the Cowell - Kimba - Buckleboo region. EXPLORATION: Field reconnaissance and rock chip geochemical sampling of prospective areas identified from...

The Menninnie JV Project area consists of five contiguous exploration licences, and is considered prospective for Pb-Zn-Ag-Cu-Au-Mo-U deposits associated with past epithermal, porphyry, IOCG and skarn - forming geological environments. It lies in a...

During the life of the subject licence, the focus of exploration was to determine the area's potential for DSO haematite iron ore, with a secondary consideration being magnetite and haematite BIF. After conducting geophysical surveys and exploratory...

No new work was carried out on the subject Stony Hill licence area during its past year. The South Australian Iron Ore Group Pty Ltd (SAIOG) has held this tenement (successively under ELs 3287/4451/5617) since 2/12/2004, but has now surrendered it in...

Project Connelly is designed to target haematite mineralisation on OneSteel's mining and exploration leases, including EL 3516 Middleback Range, with the aim of adding to the haematite reserve. In addition to the exploration programme, reserve...

Exploration for possible stratiform sediment-hosted lead-zinc in Lower Proterozoic metasediments of the Middleback Range area included the compilation of a lineament map from Landsat images and available aeromagnetic data, generating and interpreting...

TARGET: Unconformity related, vein-like and vein-type uranium in the Cleve Metamorphics, Katunga Dolomite and Mangalo Schist; lead-zinc sulphides of Broken Hill or Balmat-Edwards type in the Hutchison Group. EXPLORATION: Uranium exploration...

During the Northern Eyre Peninsula Project (NEPP) 2013-2014 reporting year, exploration field work took place on two of the six project tenements. On EL 4884 Minbrie, a single 151 m deep vertical RC drillhole, BURC092, was completed in August 2013,...

This report deals comprehensively with the physiography, prospect geology, and ore genesis, and includes an assessment of the iron ore reserves and other mineral resources of an area which has been almost the sole source of the iron ore used in...
