Local sedimentary geology, resultant soil types and groundwater availability in the Clare Valley, which extends through the Mid-North region for 90-110 km north of Adelaide, are discussed in the context of suitability for vine-growing and quality wine...

The City of Tea Tree Gully is seeking to establish an Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) project at the Tea Tree Gully Golf Course, which is located approximately 20 km north-east of the city of Adelaide. The application of ASR would enable the golf...

During the early to mid-1980s, the SADME (SA Department of Mines and Energy) Engineering Division collaborated with CSIRO Soils Division to jointly sponsor a major geomechanics project, investigating metropolitan Adelaide’s problem soils and near...

At the request of architect Giles Walkley, a domestic residence located at 2 Belmore Terrace, Woodville, South Australia was examined for the purpose of determining what stone the house was constructed from, and if possible, the location of the quarry...

1:40,000 scale geological mapping and soil geochemical sampling performed in the vicinity of the Paratoo copper mine, 300 km north-east of Adelaide, demonstrated both structural and lithological controls to known mineralisation. Stored historic...

Small-scale chemical tracer tests were conducted at two sites in the Clare Valley (Wendouree Winery and Watervale Oval) to investigate the potential for aquifer storage and recovery (ASR) of excess surface runoff water into fractured rock aquifers....

The purpose of this interpretation is to provide an initial framework for the basement to the Murray Basin upon which to plan the Geological Survey of South Australia’s MinEx CRC National Drilling Initiative drilling project targeting the Delamerian...

HyVista Corporation was contracted by DMITRE during August-September 2013 to process an archived set of HyMap airborne hyperspectral scanner data of the Earth's surface radiance properties, that had previously been acquired on 13/3/2002 from a survey...

Burra Group metasedimentary argillite and quartzite beds outcropping 3 km north of Birdwood, which have been altered during a Tertiary deep weathering event, are excavated by the licensee to produce refractory and other industrial raw materials....

Exploration for possible economic vein-style and structurally controlled gold with Adelaidean bedrock sediments in an area located south of Manna Hill township was conducted using low cost remote sensing, geochemical and geophysical methods. The...

An area centred ~40 km east of Peterborough in the vicinity of Mount Grainger Goldfield has continued to be explored for possible small diamondiferous kimberlite bodies and for buried economic stratabound, structurally controlled and disseminated...

Two separate areas situated at a distance to the north-west and north-east of Mount Grainger have been explored for possible sediment-hosted gold, after the licensee used research conducted by CODES at the University of Tasmania (UTAS) to identify...

Gravel and stream sediment bulk sampling carried out at 83 sites in the upper Onkaparinga River Valley area (1660 kg processed for heavy mineral analysis and kimberlite indicator mineral determinations) has given no encouragement to the local Adelaide...

Gold/copper exploration being undertaken north-west of Yunta has comprised rock chip geochemical sampling and BLEG stream sediment sampling. No significant gold anomalies were identified from the drainage bulk samples. High assay values of up to 8.8...

An area centred ~15 km east of Eudunda, in the north-eastern Mount Lofty Ranges, has been explored initially for possible economic outcropping stratabound/replacement style phosphate mineralisation that may have formed within Adelaidean dolomitic...

Exploration Licence 5744 covers 661 square km located ~120 km north-east of Adelaide, on the eastern side of the Mount Lofty Ranges. It forms a part of SeeSaw Resources' Brownlow Project. Basement outcrop within the tenement is limited to Adelaidean...

An small area located immediately north-east of Paratoo township has been explored for possible buried Burra mine type epithermal/hydrothermal copper mineralisation, as well as for gold and rare earth metals which may have accumulated in proximity to...

Basal Umberatana Group glacial tillitic sedimentary sequences and upper Burra Group interglacial arenaceous sediments were explored for possible economic stratabound gold mineralisation in an area located near and to the north of Mintaro, which...

During 2007-2008, the first year of the diamond exploration joint venture with the Filsell brothers in the Paratoo area, Flinders Mines' activities comprised: • acquiring part of a detailed helicopter-borne infill aerial magnetic ('helimag') survey,...

Exploration for possible Neoproterozoic sediment-hosted, unconformity related buried uranium deposits within a synclinally-exposed area of reduced Warrina Supergroup siliclastic rocks, 160 km north of Adelaide, followed a concept that such deposits...
