Summarises the chemical classification and macroscopic visual attributes of basement igneous rocks seen in outcrop within the regional geological settings of northern Eyre Peninsula and the Gawler Ranges.

Several commodities are currently mined on Eyre Peninsula including iron ore, dolomite, graphite, lime sand, gypsum, silica, granite, nephrite jade, talc and salt. Historically, copper, lead, silver and gold have also been mined and there are known...

36 reverse circulation drillholes totalling 1448 m (average depth 40.2 m) were drilled to determine the bedrock geology and geochemistry below sedimentary cover, in selected locations on the KINGOONYA 1:250,000 mapsheet area that had been recommended...

This interpretation of magnetic and gravity data covering KINGOONYA was undertaken as part of an interpretation of the northern Gawler Craton, and was carried out without reference to any previous geophysical interpretation. Most of the work is based...

The Mesoproterozoic Gawler Range Volcanics - Hiltaba Granite Suite - related Olympic Dam style Cu-U-Au mineralisation, and Menninnie Dam replacement style Pb-Zn-Ag mineralisation, have served to raise the prospectivity of rocks in and underlying the...

Mineral exploration on CHILDARA 1:250 000 geological map sheet was reviewed from SADME open file Envelopes, to complement an overview of regional prospectivity supported via the recent acquisition of high quality aeromagnetic data and a compilation by...

Exploration for possible buried economic iron oxide - associated copper-gold (IOCG) mineral deposit targets within the subject area of the north-western Gawler Ranges utilised existing and newly acquired regional gravity data to attempt to identify...

In October 2003, Minotaur Exploration completed part of a regional infill ground gravity survey over the now relinquished portion of EL 3100, along N-S lines at a station spacing of 1 km x 2 km. A significant gravity anomaly which coincides with an...

An area located on the northern Stuart Shelf between Olympic Dam and Prominent Hill, approx. 50 km south-southwest of the latter, has been explored for possible Olympic Dam type iron oxide - associated copper-gold (IOCG) deposits and for Canadian...

An area located approximately 110 km north of Kimba, on the eastern margin of Lake Gairdner, has been explored for possible buried iron oxide - associated copper-gold±uranium (IOCG-U) mineralisation formed within the Mesoproterozoic or older basement...

As part of a search for possible Tunkillia type structurally-controlled buried gold deposits within an area located approximately 120 km north-east of Ceduna, licensee Southern Gold targeted geochemical and geophysical anomalies that had previously...

Soil and calcrete geochemical data is presented for the now relinquished portions of EL 3211.

Economic deposits of iron-oxide associated copper-gold mineralisation of the Moonta-Wallaroo or Olympic Dam style, hosted in Palaeoproterozoic basement rocks of the Moonta Sub-domain, were targeted by exploration in three now surrendered licences,...

Exploration currently underway for possible economic buried iron oxide - associated copper-gold (IOCG) mineralisation within Proterozoic basement on the Mabel Creek High, in one of two joint venture group project licence areas located approximately 50...

Exploration for possible economic buried magmatic/epithermal/hydrothermal/metamorphic gold and copper deposits, which may have formed within Archaean and Proterozoic basement rocks in an area located approximately 24 km north-west of Kingoonya,...

Exploration of an area located about 50 km west of Kingoonya, looking for possible Archaean to Proterozoic mafic intrusive and shear-related economic gold and base metal mineralisation, has lately been hampered financially by the exit of Mount Isa...

Renewed brownfields gold exploration in an area situated 20-40 km north and west of the Tarcoola Goldfield, previously held in part by the licensee as EL 1848, was prompted by the May 1995 success of the Samantha/Resolute/Dominion corporate joint...

Exploration for possible buried epithermal or hydrothermal gold deposits within Precambrian basement 20-30 km east of Tarcoola has targeted the potential of a series of prominent northwest - trending linear demagnetised zones, representing probable...

Exploration for economic near-surface deposits of gold and base metals, in an area of possibly hydrothermally-altered Hiltaba Suite Mesoproterozoic basement located approximately 20 km north of Kimba, has comprised an assessment of previous...
