Tasman Resources' ("Tasman") Central Gawler Project tenement acreage, originally comprising seven exploration licences ELs 3339 to 3345, was initially applied for on the basis of perceived prospectivity for diamonds: however, following Tasman's...

A small part of the Lincoln Uplands on east-central Eyre Peninsula, which is centred ~20 km north-east of Cummins, has been explored for possible economic buried graphite and/or base metal mineralisation that may have formed in metamorphosed...

Laboratory analysis of 18 samples of groundwater seepage brine collected from Lake MacFarlane during June-July 2016 indicated that the lake was unlikely to host an economically viable potash resource, and therefore the mineral exploration licence...

Five conjoined exploration licences covering the buried central and northern Benagerie Ridge basement province that is comprised predominantly of Mesoproterozoic volcanic and intrusive rocks, have been explored for possible economic iron oxide -...

The reports comprising this data release package describe exploration for economic deposits of base and precious metals that have possibly formed within Neoproterozoic metasediments, the underlying Palaeoproterozoic basement, and in Cambrian carbonate...

Banded iron formation (BIF) rock outcrops and an associated 15 km long aeromagnetic anomaly located about 20 km west of Iron Baron were chosen by Centrex Metals as high quality targets deserving of exploration for economic iron mineralisation...

The Kingston coal deposit, located within a geographic area that extends between 20 and 40 km north-east of Kingston (South-East) township, comprises 985 Mt of lignite shallowly interbedded in Tertiary sediments, in a series of seams that now (in a...

An area located approximately 90-110 km north-northeast of Marree was taken up to explore for possible telethermal gold mineralisation hosted by Great Artesian Basin sediments. A number of surficial and enigmatic gold geochemical anomalies exist in...

A small area centred ~75 km east of Marree, which was previously held by Adavale as part of ELs 3620 and 3622 but later got relinquished in August 2011, has been taken up afresh after the presence of shallow fold depressions containing quartzose...

As part of a continuing search for possible economic, zircon-rich Tertiary marine placer mineral sands deposits within its tenement holdings in the eastern Eucla Basin, licensee Iluka Resources carried out scout drilling on ELs 3163, 3201 and 3203...

No new work - data collection and review only. The subject areas flanking known outcropping uraniferous basement rocks of the Padthaway Ridge were taken up to explore for possible economic sandstone-type uranium deposits that may have formed in...

Tasman Resources has discovered a new potential iron oxide - associated copper-gold-uranium (IOCGU) ore deposit at the Vulcan prospect, located 30 km north-northeast of Olympic Dam. The prospectivity of the Mesoproterozoic basement rocks in this...

The western half of EL 3432, which now lies within the continuously restricted access Red Zone of the Woomera Prohibited Area, has been relinquished at expiry of term, acting upon advice received from DMITRE. During its 5-year tenure period the...

A small area centred ~140 km north-northwest of Olary is being explored for possible buried Tertiary palaeochannel or sheet sandstone-hosted, roll-front style sedimentary uranium mineralisation, as well as for possible Mesoproterozoic basement-hosted...

Exploration licence 3001 “Mount Yerila” is situated in the northern Flinders Ranges in the Moolawatana area, approximately 140 km east of Marree. The target commodity sought by Quasar Resources is uranium mineralisation in Tertiary sands and...
