This paper provides a formal definition of the Cultana Subsuite, outlining the igneous petrology of the intrusion, its geochemical characteristics, and the nature of hydrothermal alteration and brecciation affecting the rocks. The Cultana Subsuite is...

Exploration, initially looking for rare metal elements within beryl, tantalite and ilmenorutile suite mineral occurrences, was carried out in the vicinity of diapiric breccia structures intruded by leucogranite in the area between Arkaroola Village...

Diamond exploration carried out within an area lying to the south-southwest of the Peake and Denison Ranges has aimed to find potential kimberlite sources for nine diamonds, previously recovered by De Beers from surface bulk samples, that were...

In an agreement with Oxiana, Toro Energy Limited has Uranium rights covering the Project area. In 2008, exploration activities within tenements comprising the Mount Woods Project targeted iron oxide copper gold (IOCG) style mineralisation. Drilling...

During July 2000, the Minotaur Resources Ltd / Billiton Exploration Australia Pty Ltd mineral exploration alliance entity agreed to farm into the four Coober Pedy Project tenements held by Normandy Exploration (80%), Sons of Gwalia (13%) and Sabatica...

In 2006, work completed on the Prominent Hill Project in the reporting period included drilling of 17 RC holes for 4,255 m and 46 mud/diamond holes at Prominent Hill prospect for 14,301.5 m. The drilling at Prominent Hill intersected wide zones of...

Investigation of reported radiometric anomalies associated with sub-economic iron mineralisation at the Bob Nob prospect, which is situated approximately 8 miles north-west of Arkaroola Homestead, has comprised ground magnetics and scintillometry with...

The deepest yet completed, diamond-cored base metal exploration hole in South Australia (DDH MM14 : total depth 5312 feet = 1619.1 m) was drilled on a moderately dipping trajectory at the historic Mutooroo mines, as part of copper exploration being...

In a search for possible remaining economic primary or secondary uranium deposits in an area of known such mineral occurrences located around Mount Victoria, a consultant was engaged by Esso Minerals to conduct detailed 1:12,000 scale geological...

Exploration carried out mainly to look for possible large primary deposits of uranium ore in localities surrounding Ethiudna Hill initially addressed the potential of several hard rock showings of uranium mineralisation which had been found by...

An area centred ~55 km west of Marree has been explored for possible buried economic stratiform copper and magnesite mineralisation. During the first licence year, no work occurred while Native Title land access negotiations were in progress. During...

An area located immediately north of Lake Gilles and centred on Harris Bluff in the Uno Range was taken up to explore for possible buried unconformity style uranium mineralisation which could have formed at the base of the Corunna Conglomerate, and...

A search primarily directed at assessing the stratiform copper potential of a small area centred 16 km north-east of Cradock consisted only of office studies comprising the collection and review of open file geoscientific data.

Base metal and gold exploration undertaken over a lengthy period since 1980 in the Yudnamutana Hill area, 20 km north-west of Arkaroola, has comprised detailed geological mapping of major basement and cover stratigraphic units and known mineral...

As part of a regional search for diamondiferous kimberlite, stream sediment sampling of ?54 sites in the Wharton Hill area failed to reveal any kimberlite indicator minerals. However, heavy mineral concentrates from samples taken at four sites in the...

An area located in the south and central Willouran Ranges, and centred ~45 km south-west of Marree, has been explored for possible buried economic Neoproterozoic stratiform copper mineralisation and inferred MVT, replacement or diapir-related other...

In a search conducted over an area lying beyond but near the southern edge of Coober Pedy township, looking primarily for possible economic buried Mesoproterozoic basement-hosted copper-gold deposits of predominantly IOCG type, the licensee Nova...

The Nuckulla Hill Au-Ag Project, originally consisting of three exploration licences covering 640 square km, is located approximately 115 km north-east of Ceduna in South Australia, and covers approximately 60 km strike length of the mineralised...
