A minor outcropping occurrence of blue-grey ?tremolite asbestos found in a fault crush zone located near the head of Mount Lyndhurst Creek was visited to assess its economic viability. Because of the largely narrow and unpredictable development of the...

The subject exploration licence was taken up for a 1-year term to enable ETSA and SADME to jointly conduct exploration for possible Triassic coal basins that might be concealed beneath alluvial cover in sparsely drilled areas to the north and...

Summarises information gathered during mapping since 1981, particularly work by Utah Development Company. Covers fault - bounded structural complexes in the Callanna Group and sections measured through upper Burra Group, overlying glacial beds and...

12 sections were measured through the Skillogalee Dolomite, and partly into adjacent Burra Group and Umberatana Group. Skillogalee Dolomite thickness varies from 827 metres in the East Willouran Ranges to 3921 metres near Mt Norwest. Very rapid...

Exploration Licence (EL) 2570 Mt Parry was granted to Magnesium Developments Limited on the 4 January 1999. Exploration within EL 2570 focussed on magnesite (MgCO3), which occurs within a sequence of interbeds with the Neoproterozoic, Skillogalee...

A known, undeveloped stratabound Neoproterozoic magnesite deposit at Witchelina, for which resources and reserves have historically been defined, has been taken up afresh in anticipation that a beneficiation procedure can be developed that will result...

An area centred ~70 km east of Leigh Creek is being explored for possible economic buried hydrothermal copper-gold mineralisation that may be associated with local diapiric breccias and nearby semi-permeable stratigraphic boundaries/disconformities....

An area of outcropping magnesite-bearing metasediments extending from 10 km west of to 55 km north-west of Leigh Creek township is being explored to re-assess its commercial potential for magnesia and magnesium metal production, following other...

EL 4729/6019, which extends along the Mount Norwest Range located west-northwest of Leigh Creek for a distance of 50 to 66 km from there, and surrounds the location of the historic large Witchelina magnesite deposit, is being explored for possible...

EL 4729, which extends along the Mount Norwest Range located west-northwest of Leigh Creek for a distance of 50 to 75 km, and surrounds the location of the historic large Witchelina magnesite deposit, is being explored for possible other economic...

TARGET: Carbonate-hosted gold in the Boolooroo Goldfield area. EXPLORATION: Regional stream sediment (BCL and silt) sampling (33 samples). RESULTS: No anomalous values were recorded.

This is the first detailed study of the Proterozoic Magnesite Series of Reyner, 1955 (see SADM Rep. Invest. 6). Informal stratigraphic units are described and correlated with the Skillogalee Dolomite, Myrtle Springs Formation, Sturt Tillite and...

There is no abstract created for this record

Includes an outline of the Adelaidean stratigraphy, and the underlying igneous and metamorphic rock types, and brief, mainly historical review of the economic geology.

The COPLEY 1:250 000 map area includes the northern Flinders Ranges and the southern part of the Willouran Ranges. It is bounded to the west by the Lake Torrens Sunkland and, to the east, by the Lake Frome Plains. A thick sequence of older Precambrian...

At South Hill, Willouran Ranges, the lower member of the Skillogalee Dolomite contains new form of Baicalia, B. blastophora. The Wonoka Formation contains an indeterminate form of Linella in the Willouran Ranges and Tungussia inna at Bunyeroo Gorge....

EL 4729, which extends along the Mount Norwest Range located west-northwest of Leigh Creek for a distance of 50 to 75 km from there, and surrounds the location of the historic large Witchelina magnesite deposit, is being explored for possible other...

The MARREE mapsheet area includes the south-western portion of the Strzelecki Desert plus parts of the Tirari Desert, north-western Flinders Ranges and north-eastern Willouran Ranges, between latitudes 29 to 30 degrees S and longitudes 138 to 139...

Exploration undertaken in an area of practically no outcrop that is situated north and north-west of the Ediacara Range, on the eastern side of Lake Torrens, has aimed primarily at investigating the mineral potential of a large, low amplitude...

Exploration for magnesite in the Myrtle Springs - Copley region was confined to sampling (167 samples, both of outcrop and crushed ore) and analysing 30 known magnesite occurrences held under mining lease, to determine the distribution of silica...
