As part of a regional exploration project targeting possible economic secondary, roll-front style uranium deposits within buried Tertiary sediments of the Anthony Palaeochannel and its several tributaries, two areas located approximately 130-160 km...

As part of a regional exploration project targeting possible economic buried secondary, roll-front style uranium deposits within Tertiary sediments of the Wynbring Palaeochannel and its several tributaries, an area located approximately 75 km...

The 23 square km southern sub-block portion of an area centred 30 km west of Tarcoola has been relinquished because it lies within the Yellabinna Regional Reserve, a sensitive environmental conservation park located in sandy desert wilderness country...

This project reviewed literature in order to: - evaluate any downhole environmental risks associated with drilling fluids and completion practices in the Cooper and Eromanga Basins; and - assess the effectiveness of cementing practices in achieving...

South Australia is well recognised as being significantly enriched in uranium. During 2013–2014, South Australia produced 4399 t of uranium, representing 80% of Australia’s total uranium production of 5512 t, and equating to 9.2% of the world’s total...

South Australia is well recognised as being significantly enriched in uranium. During 2010–11, South Australia produced 4276 t of uranium, representing 60% of Australia’s total uranium production of 7035 t, and equating to 11% of the world’s total...

Our knowledge of geochemical dispersion of gold and gold pathfinders in the Gawler Craton (South Australia) is poor since there have been very few published research or orientation studies. In this study conducted at the Birthday gold prospect, the...

A previous regional soil and stream sediment sampling program (cf. RB 2000/00002) has delineated areas of heavy metal contamination in the Dawesley-Bremer Catchment. Heavy metal contamination was found to occur sporadically along both Dawesley Creek...

This tour guide presents information about fourteen sites of interest to regolith geologists that have been identified within the southern Curnamona Province in places where the regolith is well exposed in the Olary and Barrier Ranges. The sites...

During a seven-day period in March 2014, with funding drawn from the South Australian Government's PACE Frontiers mineral prospectivity promotion programme, a pioneer regional biogeochemical survey was conducted by the authors within the hitherto...

The Late Palaeozoic Cooper Basin is a major source of hydrocarbons and is especially important in providing the natural gas needs of much of south-eastern Australia. The basin is now a mature petroleum province, with more than 1200 wells drilled and...

South Australia is well recognised as being significantly enriched in uranium. During 2008/2009, South Australia produced 4 613 t of uranium, representing 45% of Australia's total uranium production of 10 311 t, and equating to 9.5% of the world's...

While looking for possible westward extensions to the Eurelia Kimberlite Province, Stockdale's stream gravel sampling for kimberlitic indicators, followed by ground magnetometer traversing and observation of vegetation anomalies, led to the discovery...

During January and April 1966, 10,611 feet of reconnaissance and infill percussion drilling plus 300 feet of auger drilling were carried out on SML 96, around the former Main Open Cut and Lagoon workings of the historic Mount Gunson copper mine, with...

Field inspection of an area of interpreted Recent uplift located between the Coober and Andamooka Precious Stones Fields failed to provide visible encouragement for finding fracture-related gold and base metal mineralisation.

High base metal values, particularly for zinc, that resulted from the sampling of pits and costeans at Eukaby Hill, led North to a close examination of the unremarkable calcareous siltstone host rock to find the cause of suspected syngenetic...

Background: Leaching of copper has been improved in many instances by the inclusion of bacteria in the leaching solution. If such a system could be applied to extracting copper from the many mine dumps of low grade ore that exist in South Australia,...

Exploration for possible Olympic Dam - type base metals was undertaken in an area located 105 km south-east of Yunta, based on the recognition of steep magnetic gradient anomalies juxtaposed with a regionally significant linear crustal structure....
