Gold mineralization in a deep lead was appraised. Alluvial gold occurs in a 1 metre thick basal bed. Over 60 samples collected from exploratory bulldozer cuts, main open cut and drill cuttings from water bore indicate grade of 0.073 g/t Au, although...

Investigations consisted of: 1) economic appraisal, mapping and sampling of mineralised structures within mineral leases; 2) regional investigation to east of Mount Grainger mine (report in RB 84/31) - includes details of exploration by Abignano Ltd....

Gold ore was treated by 5 head stamp battery between 1904 and 1924, then by 10 head stamp battery between 1935 and 1963 on adjacent sites. Tailings are stored on both sites and an indicated total of 13 620 tonnes containing 15.8 kg of gold at an...

Thin section descriptions from 3 drill holes with emphasis on origin of the gold mineralization. Mineralized sediments include shale, siltstone and sandstone, with early iron mineralization.

Basic information on history, production, mining, geology, mineral processing, and exploration at various mines and prospects. Main purpose is to demonstrate features of Adelaidean and other mineralization.

Tarcoola State Battery and Cyanide plant crushed and treated 33 514 tonnes of ore from 1901 to 1955 yielding 1 161 092.8 grams of gold bullion. An indicated 29 250 tonnes containing 2.18 g/t Au, 320 ppm Cu, 2970 ppm Pb, 870 ppm Zn, 250 ppm As and 6.0...

Summary of 11 week training programme.

Alluvial gold was discovered at Teetulpa in 1886 by Thomas Brady and Thomas Smith. Reef mining soon commenced, but the reefs were narrow and low grade and only worked on very small scale. Teetulpa Goldfield is predominantly alluvial, from erosion of...

In mid 1892, a 10 head stamp battery was constructed about 4 km NE of the Countess of Jersey gold mine. Reportedly 300 tonnes of ore from the mine was treated at the battery, but no records are available. Recent hand auger sampling and surveying of...

New Milo mine, the largest mine on the Wadnaminga Goldfield, was discovered in 1889 and has produced 10 665 tonnes of ore which yielded 359 401.17 grams of gold bullion. Tailings stockpiled on site are estimated at10 000 tonnes containing 2.08 g/t Au....

About 1,500 samples were collected during a stream sediment sampling survey on the Riverton and Eudunda 1:63 360 geological sheets and analysed for Cu, Pb, Zn, Au, W, Mo, Nb, Co and Mn. Rolling means, residual values, correlation coefficients and mean...

From 1912 - 1939, 44 900 tonnes of auriferous gold ore with grade of 18.6 g/t Au were treated and the tailings stored on site, containing an indicated 35 400 tonnes of 3.62 g/t Au and 0.23% Cu. Cyanidation tests indicate that 101 600 g of gold can be...

Tonnages and gold content of tailings and slimes stockpiled at the Government Stamp Battery at Peterborough were calculated from hand auger drilling and mining return records. The amount of recoverable gold was determined by mineralogical and...

Old mines and prospects were located, sketch mapped and photographed. Ultra- violet lamp was used to search for scheelite in Mt McTaggart area and west of Mt Fitton. Scintillometer was used to search for radioactive minerals.

The Kings Bluff goldfield operated from 1887 to about 1918, with sporadic interest shown by prospectors thereafter. Gold is found primarily in vuggy quartz veins transecting the quartzite host-rock. The vugs themselves, which are relatively higher...

Gold mineralisation occurs near Orama Hill, situated north of Koonamore Station Homestead, and at Kirkeek?s Treasure gold mine on the Nillinghoo Goldfield. These two localities are about 25 km apart, and lie along the axis of the Orama Hill Anticline....

The mines and mineral deposits in the proposed park are summarized from departmental records with list of references and plans available on microfilm.

Earea Dam Goldfield is 38 km ESE of Tarcoola, on section 1007, out of hundreds. Since discovery in 1899, 1 869.63 tonnes of ore have yielded 59 237.59 grams of gold bullion, during several periods of operation. Ore has been treated at Tarcoola,...
