Close examination of large scale apparent folds in the vicinity of Wheal Ellen has led to the conclusion that apparent folds can be produced by a combination of jointing (shearing) and topography. Thus, apart from fault trace offsets, no importance...

Regional stream sediment sampling conducted over an area of historically prospective ?Archaean, Proterozoic and Palaeozoic rocks in the Mount Painter - Mount Babbage - Mount Livingstone - Yudnamutana area did not reveal any base or precious metal...

Exploration for stratabound copper deposits within potentially prospective Late Proterozoic host sedimentary rocks over an area of the southern Flinders Ranges comprised regional geochemical sampling and detailed (1:10,000 scale) geological mapping,...

SML 113 covering about 1000 square km of Upper Proterozoic and Lower Cambrian sediments, and scattered masses of intrusive diapir, was taken out in the vicinity of Beltana to explore for copper deposits analogous to those found by SA Department of...

Possible stratiform / hydrothermal syngenetic base metals deposited on the flanks of the Pernatty Culmination in the vicinity of fault lineations were targeted in an ongoing regional drilling programme (in part comprising 7 vertical rotary percussion...

An area surrounding Beltana in the Flinders Ranges, which is known to contain low level base metal mineralised Adelaidean and Cambrian sedimentary rocks and diapiric intrusive structures, has been prospected by a combination of photogeological studies...

Consultants were engaged by the licensee to conduct an extensive geological and geochemical investigation of a 2700 square mile area surrounding the Mount Gunson copper deposit, and to perform an interpretation of available regional aeromagnetic data....

In a search for possible buried sedimentary uranium mineralisation which may have been precipitated adjacent to the northern margin of the Murray Basin in SA, following long term palaeodrainage transport of the dissolved weathering products of primary...

Regional stream sediment sampling across the southern Fleurieu Peninsula (133 bulk samples), done outside the previously sampled Cape Jervis / Talisker mine area, failed to locate any base metal anomalies that might be related to subtle pneumatolytic...

This report presents the results of a Geological Survey of South Australia drillhole core samples logging project addressing a selection of the cored historical exploration and stratigraphic holes that have penetrated probable Delamerian Orogeny -...

SA_STRAT is the department’s computerised database of stratigraphic units, comprising named formal stratigraphic units and unnamed mapping units. All current stratigraphic units are tagged with a GIS Search Code unique to each unit and used...

Map symbols are a short code used to identify various geological units on maps. Each map unit, including formally and informally named stratigraphic units as well as unnamed age and lithology units, has a unique code, representing a shortened version...
