A re-investigation of base metal geochemical anomalies detected during Electrolytic Zinc Co.'s former stream sediment and rock chip sampling programme conducted near an historic copper-lead mine prospect at Mount Chambers in the eastern Flinders...

Geological mapping, further surface geochemical sampling, test IP surveys and limited shallow diamond drilling (2 holes, total 201.3 m, including 147 m of NQ/BQ wireline coring) were done over a previously identified stream sediment zinc anomaly at...

The distribution and relationships of Lower Cambrian units in the Flinders Ranges are illustrated by a panel diagram and sketch maps. A new rock name, Hawker Group, is introduced for six formations of Lower Cambrian age which represent a phase of...

Mapping and sampling have confirmed high grade dolomite at the base of the Lower Cambrian Wilkawillina Limestone at Brachina Gorge. The dolomite appears chemically suitable for refractory and other industrial purposes, with an average grade of 54%...

Drilling of 6 scout holes to maximum depth of 152 metres investigated a faulted syncline 5 km SE of the township. Yields were too low or salinity too high to provide a useful supply. Further drilling should be concentrated 11 km NW of Hawker where...

Well drilled to 120 metres had airlift yield of 12 L/s from Cambrian limestone aquifer, which has good potential for stream recharge and capable of supplying the 1.2 L/s peak discharge required. Salinity is 950 mg/L. Confirms effectiveness of deep...

The rare zinc phosphate mineral, scholzite, has been found in gossans developed on Early Cambrian Parachilna Formation siltstone and sandstone near Reaphook Hill in the Flinders Ranges. Other rare phosphate minerals, including tarbuttite,...

Potential target areas for Mississippi Valley style lead zinc mineralization were drill tested by 31 open drill holes totalling 825 metres. Postulated eastern extensions of low grade, flat-lying lead (-zinc) mineralisation were confirmed at the Eric...

This paper describes the type fossil occurrences, their present-day geological setting and, as deduced from properties of the host sediments, their interpreted palaeogeographic locations and palaeoenvironmental depositional facies which probably...

Protracted exploration undertaken by an individual mineral prospector over a small area of rugged topography located in the north-central Flinders Ranges, approximately 25 km north-east of Leigh Creek, has addressed a number of potentially economic...

Exploration Licence 2593 “Blinman” is located 500 km north of Adelaide in the Central North Flinders Ranges, South Australia. The licence covers an area of 1616km2 and was initially granted to Minotaur Gold NL on 21 April 1999. Minotaur was targeting...

A large area centred on the Wilkawillina Gorge of Ten Mile Creek, in the central Flinders Ranges near Oraparinna, is being explored for possible buried economic zinc silicate (willemite) epigenetic or replacement mineralisation of Beltana type, as...

In a search for possible buried stratiform massive base metal sulphides hosted within Cambrian carbonate-dolomitic rocks in the Ragless Range area, Amoco Minerals undertook 1:20,000 scale geological mapping and gridding of the eastern limb of the main...

Ongoing exploration for economic epigenetic and syngenetic copper occurrences in the vicinity of the Worumba Diapir, east of Hawker, has concentrated on field mapping, soil and channel sampling and shallow percussion drilling (47 holes for 3755+ feet)...

A licence area which originally covered 305 square km of the central Flinders Ranges east of Leigh Creek has recently undergone two reductions in size, including a first partial relinquishment of 115.7 square km (37.9%) made on 19/12/ 2013 as per the...

A group of jointly reported tenements in the northern Flinders Ranges region is being explored for economic base metal mineralisation that might have formed within Late Proterozoic to Middle Cambrian continental rift margin sediments, probably with...

Two adjoining licence areas located ~50-70 km to the east and south-east of Blinman are being explored for possible economic buried willemite (zinc silicate), scholzite (zinc phosphate) and other base metal mineralisation associated with particular...

During the third year of exploration nominally ending on 1/7/2002 [and subsequent to the starting date of 5/3/2002 for the application of provisions of the Flinders Ranges Project's multi-tenement Amalgamation of Expenditure Agreement (AEA), whence...
