Between September 1963 and February 1964 a programme of diamond drilling and surface sampling was carried out at the abandoned Paull Consolidated mine and its environs, located approximately 18 miles north-east of Leigh Creek. Spectrographic analyses...

The MARREE mapsheet area lies in arid country about 400 miles north of Adelaide, South Australia. It includes the town of Marree, on the Alice Springs railway line, and part of the Birdsville and Strzelecki tracks. The area is covered mainly by flat...

This report is complementary to an Amdel report in preparation entitled “Review of Lead Smelting Operations” and to a similar report on copper smelting operations which will be prepared at a later date. When concentrates are not smelted by the company...

Irregular oxidised orebodies up to about 3 feet thick, containing copper carbonates, quartz, sphaerocobaltite (cobalt carbonate) and wad (hydrated manganese oxide), occupy both shear zones aligned parallel with bedding, and crush zones developed...

Copper carbonates are sporadically distributed throughout steeply dipping mica schist in a zone up to about 70 ft. wide. The host rocks have been regarded as overturned metamorphosed Burra Group (Torrensian) beds resting on the Aldgate Sandstone...

Further electromagnetic and induced polarization work has been carried out in the Tarcoola Blocks mine and Brown Hill areas at Tarcoola to extend and substantiate previous investigations (ref. RB 59/128, 23 November 1964). The latest results...

Copper carbonates are found irregularly dispersed within two types of quartz reef occurring in sheared Adelaide System quartzites and slates, 26 miles east south-east of Radium Hill and 4 miles south- southwest of Mutooroo Homestead. Mining there was...

Small amounts of copper carbonate, which were mined on a small scale in 1890, occur in Adelaide System slates, 25 miles north south east of Radium Hill and 4 miles south south west of Mutooroo Homestead. No payable concentrations of copper were found...

Four different types of geophysical surveys were carried out in the vicinity of the old Talisker Mine in an effort to detect the presence of possible sulphide ore bodies. No conclusive results were obtained due to the lack of penetration of the...

An inspection of Mineral Claim 2274 was made on August 7th in company with the claimholders. The copper prospect is situated in the extreme south-eastern corner of section 2, Hd. Campoona, eleven miles by road northwest of Cleve Township. The...

Preliminary laboratory beneficiation tests have been carried out on a partially oxidized copper bearing ore from the Dome Rock Mine near Mingary South Australia.

This report covers preliminary investigations carried out to determine suitable methods of extracting copper values from dump material at Burra, South Australia. Results were not encouraging.

9.1 million tonnes of crude ore and 2.5 million tonnes of dressed ore, averaging 3.39 and 3.61% copper respectively, were produced from 1890 to 1923. Output totalled 336 000 tonnes of copper and 1682 kg of fine gold. Some of the gold was purchased...

Includes a discussion about probable processes of mobilisation and recrystallisation of the dolomitic sediments, and describes the evidence found for the presence of a pyroclastic component in many of the non-carbonate sedimentary rock samples.

From 1873 to 1894, this goldfield, located 35 km north of Yunta, produced over 45,000 ounces (1400 kg) of gold from approximately 60,000 tonnes of ore, dug from a series of quartz-ironstone-pyrite reefs that dip southwards at 32 degrees on the...

Processes suitable for use by small scale mining operations are discussed in detail. Covers methods of treatment for oxidized ores, sulphide ores and mixed sulphide oxide ores, marketing and economics.
