The search by MESA for potable groundwater incorporated the use of Transient Electromagnetics, a ground resistivity method. This successfully provided drilling targets at two sites, Blue Hills and Wallatinna, but was unsuccessful in areas with shallow...

Exposures of Proterozoic rocks consist of coarse-grained, megacrystic granitoids plus dolerite and metadolerite dykes. This igneous association is correlated with the Donington Granitoid Suite and represents the southernmost exposure of the Gawler...

Mineral exploration on CHILDARA 1:250 000 geological map sheet was reviewed from SADME open file Envelopes, to complement an overview of regional prospectivity supported via the recent acquisition of high quality aeromagnetic data and a compilation by...

Economic deposits of iron-oxide associated copper-gold mineralisation of the Moonta-Wallaroo or Olympic Dam style, hosted in Palaeoproterozoic basement rocks of the Moonta Sub-domain, were targeted by exploration in three now surrendered licences,...

The abstract for this Envelope is contained (in three parts) as separately indexed records, due to SAMREF database system individual record data size limits presently applicable.

It has lately been recognised by explorers that subsidiary fault splays developed adjacent to the main Yarlbrinda Shear Zone may be more prospective for hydrothermal gold deposits than the main zone. In an approved PACE Initiative Year 2 drilling...

The Yarlbrinda and Yerda Shear Zones of the central Gawler Craton, partly present within EL 3107 in the Tarcoola-Glenloth-Lake Harris region, were the target for a number of mineral exploratory drillholes put down there by by licence farminee Minotaur...

Exploration carried out by MIM to look for possible economic primary or secondary uranium deposits related to the Weekeroo Inlier of Palaeoproterozoic rocks has consisted of an airborne radiometric survey (750 line miles flown along E-W lines spaced...

Exploration for possible economic gold deposits in an area located approximately 25 km south of Olary addressed three principal objectives: . hydrothermally-sourced gold within quartz-albite-dolomite vein stockworks formed in phyllitic siltstones of...

Southern Cross Resources Australia Pty Ltd (Southern Cross) purchased Rio Tinto Exploration Limited’s share of the Northern Olary Joint Venture, including its interest in the subject EL 2310 Yarramba, in November 2000. Southern Cross has held the...

The Mount Painter basement igneous complex is dominated by granite intrusions and volcanic rocks, most of which are fractionated and have a high uranium content. Apart from Mount Painter itself, where uranium was mined more than 60 years ago, there...

An area centred ~50 km south west of Cockburn is being explored for possible economic base and precious metal mineralisation that may have formed in buried Palaeoproterozoic basement rocks, as well as for any secondary uranium mineralisation that may...

28 square km, or the whole southern half, of an area centred ~14 km north-west of Murray Bridge has now been relinquished because of a recently assigned competing land usage classification that would make it difficult to do mineral exploration there....

Palaeoproterozoic metasediments of the Hutchison Group, and Lincoln Complex granitoids, were the targets of exploration for gold, base metals and granite dimension stone in an area 40 km south of Kimba. Initial calcrete sampling indicated that...

Secondary copper mineralisation at the Cutana copper mine appears to be limited to a length of about 30 feet at the surface, where historic workings have excavated a swell to 3 feet wide in a quartz-ironstone reef that otherwise narrows to 18 inches...

Reconnaissance calcrete sampling over aeromagnetic features was carried out in interdunal corridors 110 km south-west of Tarcoola. Although sampling was restricted by excessive depths to the calcrete horizon, weakly anomalous gold and copper were...

An area located 45 km west of Whyalla, which is underlain by Palaeoproterozoic and Archaean sediments, metasediments and intrusives, was inferred to have potential to host gold and base metal mineralisation. Interpretation of Landsat images and...
