Shallowly buried, Cambrian stratabound base metal deposits of Mississippi Valley type, that might be associated with large throw old fault structures running along the western side of the Flinders Ranges, were sought by carrying out a varied programme...

Exploration for possible economic stratabound phosphate mineralisation within Cambrian sediments of the northern Flinders Ranges comprised 51 miles of stratigraphic traversing, the field testing of every bed with indicator reagents able to reveal...

Renewed base metal exploration over a 160 square mile area near Angepena Station in the northern Flinders Ranges, 20 miles east of Copley, involved on-going geochemical exploration of known mineral occurrences, plus regional reconnaisance stream...

In a continuation of uranium exploration work (part of the Frome Project) begun by E-Z and Newmont on their former SML 217, a surface radiometric anomaly previously identified at the Mount John prospect by ground scintillometer prospecting and shallow...

Prompted by records of anomalous radioactivity being detected at old copper workings in the Hawker - Willochra region of the Flinders Ranges, the licensees decided to investigate the Arkaba Diapir for possible uranium mineralisation that might be...

Reconnaissance stream sediment geochemical sampling undertaken in the western half of the licence area, limited grab sampling of outcrop specimens from the visually copper-mineralised Wearing Dolomite Member noted in the eastern half, and follow-up...

Exploration of the Lower Cambrian Parachilna Formation and Upper Proterozoic Pound Quartzite in an area around the nose of the Balcanoona Anticline and cross-folded Arrowie Syncline, where a quantity of surface copper mineralisation occurs, initially...

At Radford Creek significant lead-zinc mineralisation was indicated by stream sediment values of up to 1000 ppm Pb and 700 ppm Zn. The mineralisation occurs in Lower Cambrian limestone at approximately the same stratigraphic horizon as the zinc...

A re-investigation of the remnant mineralisation potential of the Ediacara Mineral Field has involved a review of SA Department of Mines' (SADM) diamond drillhole data, the selective re-sampling of diamond drill core intervals for assay, detailed...

A helicopter - assisted drainage geochemical reconnaissance survey was carried out over a large expanse of synclinally folded sediments in the south-central Flinders Ranges during June-July 1968, with 4 days of on-ground follow-up completed in...

Exploration carried out near an historically worked small occurrence of stratiform base metal mineralisation near Balcanoona in the central Flinders Ranges, 50 miles east of Copley, aiming to follow up reported surface geochemical anomalies, has...

As part of a regional investigation of the stratiform base metal mineral potential of Cambrian strata in South Australia, Kennecott has undertaken a geochemical reconnaissance of the Parachilna Formation and Wilkawillina Limestone strata present in...

Possible hydrothermally - deposited native mercury metal associated with the Mount John Fault zone, perhaps in a quartz splinter vein setting similar to that of the mercury occurrence previously found nearby at the Moro mine, plus elsewhere, economic...

Continued evaluation of the Balcanoona anticlinal structure as a potential host to economic copper sulphide deposits has focussed on the eastern side limb, where similar metalliferous gossans exists as those which have been explored previously on the...
