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...

Work completed within the three now relinquished small portions of this licence (total 6.16%) has included regional and semi-detailed calcrete sampling (56 samples taken at 1 km spacing, plus 111 infill samples taken on 400 m grid centres), parts of...

[ Note - here is only Part 1 of an abstract relating to 2 separately indexed parts ]. The subject two areas covering the northern outcropping Peake and Denison Ranges basement inliers were taken up by Pancontinental Mining to test for possible...

Exploration for possible buried volcanosedimentary - hosted massive sulphide (VHMS) or sedimentary - exhalative (sedex) type metallic mineral deposits, within Cambrian metasedimentary and igneous extrusive strata of the Kanmantoo Trough underlying...

The licensee, Peter Forwood, has been involved in mineral exploration at Bute for many years, initially with North Broken Hill Ltd in ELs 248, 420, 577 and 972, and has pursued the exploration of the area through many phases. Two important features...

A multipart licence project area located approximately 100-150 km south-east of Ceduna is being targeted for possible Voiseys Bay type nickel, copper, cobalt and platinum group metal deposits within mafic to ultramafic basement rocks buried beneath...

During exploration of Exploration Licence 3209 situated on the northern Stuart Shelf, gravity and magnetic modelling performed in early 2004 highlighted several anomaly source bodies, which immediately became of much interest as potential iron-oxide...

Mithril Resources have used a grant of PACE Initiative Year 2 funds to perform additional drilling on their EL 3105 located just north of Fowlers Bay. This area is regarded as being very prospective for Mid-Proterozoic mafic/ultramafic - hosted...

An area located immediately north of Port Augusta was taken up to explore for possible economic gold, base metals and diamonds. However, continuing uncertainties concerning who were the correct holders of Native Title rights and a consequent lack of...

The PACE Initiative Year 4 subsidised auger drilling programme undertaken on the Mount Hope (EL 3355) / Brimpton Lake (EL 3561) mineral exploration tenements was a trial to test the application of a new low cost drilling technique to exploring under...

Gawler Range Volcanics outcrop and subcrop near some NW-SE trending regional magnetic lineaments passing south-east of Lake Gairdner, were investigated for possible shear-related epithermal / hydrothermal gold occurrences. Limited rock chip and soil...

Historic drilling undertaken on the NSW side of the state border with SA, adjacent to EL 2820, has encountered quartz-gahnite, meta-iron formation and meta-amphibolite rock types that have been correlated with the highly base metal - prospective...

When a third joint venture was entered into with Aberfoyle Resources Limited who assumed management of the tenement, the exploration targets changed to syngenetic, stratiform base metal sulphides hosted by gahnite-garnet meta-exhalatives. The...

EL 3511 licensee Debnal and its joint venture partner Venture Minerals are exploring an area of the eastern Gawler Craton having a predicted high potential for the discovery of Olympic Dam type iron oxide - associated copper-gold-uranium (IOCG-U)...

Exploration for possible buried Olympic Dam style Cu-Au-U-REE deposits in Proterozoic basement on the eastern flanks of the Peake and Denison Ranges, in an area located approximately 65 km south-east of Oodnadatta, has concentrated on a very large...

Buried Palaeozoic basement, considered as being geologically possibly analogous to the Mount Read Volcanics, was the target of exploration for gold and base metals in the vicinity of the Naracoorte Caves, 12 km south-east of Naracoorte. A ground...

To further investigate the Cu-Ni-PGE mineral sulphide potential of a known buried mafic / ultramafic layered igneous intrusive complex situated near Ki Ki in the upper South-East, the licensee of EL 3295 sought PACE Initiative funding to complete two...

Exploration for possible buried economic stratiform base metal deposits that may have formed within metamorphosed Cambrian volcanogenic sediments, which was carried out over an area extending between Port Elliot and Carrickalinga Head on the southern...

An area located immediately south of central Lake Gairdner was targeted by Newcrest for possible economic buried iron oxide - associated copper-gold (IOCG) style mineralisation associated with Mesoproterozoic lower Gawler Range Volcanics sequence...

Maximus Resources' Billa Kalina Project area lies within the Olympic Dam Province of the Gawler Craton, where the basement rocks host Olympic Dam, one of the largest iron oxide-associated copper-gold (IOCG) deposits in the world. IOCG deposits are...
