In a search for East Alligator River - type metamorphic uranium deposits, a review of previous geophysical data plus the conduct of ground and airborne radiometric surveys disclosed a number of anomalies in an area on central Eyre Peninsula extending...

A computerised lineament analysis of Landsat digital image data covering the northern portion of the Flinders Ranges has shown a strong correlation between the known mineralisation and fracture structuring peripheral to granites, suggesting that...

Ongoing exploration for possible Tertiary sediment-hosted roll front uranium occurrences in an area abutting western Lake Frome has consisted of the drilling of 7 open rotary holes for a total of 1384 m, to test ground midway between previously...

To promote renewed regional exploration of the northern Yorke Peninsula using modern techniques and concepts, MESA as part of the SAEI programme has prepared a GIS-based data package, which incorporates a study of all available drillcore and a...

Continuing geological, geochemical, petrographic and ground magnetic work was done by AAP along 26 sampling profiles to try to unravel possible stratigraphic and tectonic controls on known base metal mineralisation at the Royal Keyneton and Hope mine...

Following the signing of an eighteen month exploration joint venture agreement with Stockdale, farminee Mobil Energy Minerals undertook continuation of the uranium search over the anomalous ground lying east and south-east of Lake Gilles, besides...

The outline of the regional Precambrian geology of the Barrier Ranges proposed by Mawson and Andrews is still essentially correct. Much progress has been made in the understanding of time relationships between the older Precambrian Willyama Complex...

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...

The Geological Survey, Department of Mines, South Australia, was established to assess and develop the mineral wealth of the state. One of the main functions of the survey is the mapping and publication of one inch to one mile Geological Maps....

Outlines present regional mapping and map preparation methods and is revision of earlier report RB79/41 (Forbes and Rossini, 1979). Emphasis is on 1:250000 scale mapping. Lists published geological maps and symbols for stratigraphic units.

History prior to 1940. Includes representative list of published maps.

The results of a survey of 123 people working in earth science indicate satisfaction with the standard and format of Departmental map publications. 1:250000 scale maps are still most in demand but should be constantly revised. There is a requirement...

The Geological Survey Branch of the South Australian Department of Mines and Energy began systematic production of standard geological map sheets in 1949. This work continues and is an important contribution to the development of the mineral, energy...

The Adelaide Geosyncline is a deeply subsident Neoproterozoic to Middle Cambrian basin complex in South Australia with a record of at least five major successive rift cycles. Each rift system has its own locus and orientation. Although the rift...

This report is on the Otway Basin, South Australian sector. It covers the structural and tectonic history and the methodology of the seismic interpretation. Contour maps enclosed are time and depth structures of the Sherbrook Group, Eumeralla...

Cambro-Ordovician Warburton Basin strata and intrusive granites are conventionally regarded as the economic basement beneath the Cooper-Eromanga oil and gas province in northeastern South Australia and southwestern Queensland. This study, the first...

Pre-Mesozoic rocks are best exposed in the Willouran Ranges SW of Marree, but inliers occur as far west as Stuart Creek. These approximate the junction of the Stuart Shelf (to the west) with the Torrens Hinge Zone, which extends east to the Norwest...

Contains a statement of intent inviting PEL applications by 31/5/91 over 4 blocks of vacant onshore petroleum exploration acreage totalling 44 300 square kms in the northeastern Officer Basin of South Australia. Three of the blocks lie wholly within...
