The Bibliando Dome area 50 km east of Hawker was investigated by WMC because it showed similar regional gravity and magnetic features to those in the Olympic Dam area, and possessed minor but possibly significant Cu-Pb-Ag-Au mineralisation at the...

Exploration for possible economic Olympic Dam - type epithermal/hydrothermal or Zambian Copperbelt - type stratabound/replacement base metal deposits, in an area located approximately 40 km south-east of Yunta, focussed on magnetic anomalies and...

Unworked mine reveals copper of limited extent laterally occurring as minor narrow veins and impregnations of malachite and azurite in interbedded quartzite and pebbly siltstone. Copper carbonates may have formed from sparsely dispersed sulphides in...

The Parachilna 1:250 000 map area is about 250 road miles north of Adelaide, South Australia, and includes the eastern shore of Lake Torrens, the central Flinders Ranges and part of the Lake Frome Plains. The ranges are composed of folded Adelaidean...

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

Adelaidean and younger rocks of the Yunta, Winnininnie, Oakvale, Mutooroo, Ballara, Wadnaminga, Olary and Manunda one mile areas are summarised.

The Pualco Range is 45km south-south east of Yunta, South Australia, and contains 3300m of a formation (?Appila Tillite, Precambrian, Adelaidean) characterised by massive tillite with quartzite beds. This forms the base of the Umberatana Group and...

An area located on the far south-western side of the Frome Embayment, in the vicinity of Martins Well, was initially secured mainly to investigate its prospectivity for sediment hosted uranium deposits within the local Tertiary strata. However,...

EL 3492 was originally taken out to cover the historic copper workings at Wyacca, located 40 km east of Hawker, as part of an exploration project addressing possible economic shallow oxide copper mineralisation associated with old mines and workings...

EL 3961 lying 10 km north-west of Quorn forms part of the Hawker Project tenement package within the Adelaide Fold Belt that is being explored for sediment-hosted copper deposits. Licensee Copper Range has been looking for bleached, altered sandstone...

During licence Year 11 (2012-2013), David Miller rehabilitated his three drillsites that had been used in April 2011, delivered representative drill samples from his six holes to the DMITRE Drill Core Library, and further considered the logistics of...

An area of high country in the far northern Mount Lofty Ranges was taken under licence to try to find the primary source(s) of widely dispersed detrital gold known from Recent and Tertiary cover sediments in the region, while focussing mainly on...

Copper and gold exploration is being conducted within a small area centred about 100 km east of Hawker, which it is thought has potential for epigenetic vein style mineralisation within buried Adelaidean sandstone and shale strata in a stratabound...

South Australia Ludi Mining Pty Ltd (“SALM”) acquired Exploration Licence 4619 “Coward Springs” to explore for large Mesoproterozoic copper/gold/uranium deposits analogous to Olympic Dam, which is located approximately 120 km to the south. The licence...

A small area centred approximately 70 km north of Orroroo is being explored for possible buried economic Neoproterozoic stratiform or stratabound epithermal/hydrothermal copper and gold deposits, and for placer gold or magnetite deposits, as well as...

The Scott Hill (EL 3587) licence area, centred about 80 km north-west of Manna Hill, is the westernmost of 5 adjacent tenements held by PepinNini Minerals within the eastern Adelaide Geosyncline close to where it abuts the Curnamona Province. This...

The rolling hills, wheat paddocks and vineyards of the Mid-North region of South Australia conceal a geological transition between the Adelaide Hills and the Flinders Ranges. Here the landscape is subtly controlled by the Neoproterozoic bedrock...

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...

As part of exploration for sheeted vein, stratabound Telfer style and banded iron formation hosted Homestake style gold and base metal deposits in metasediments of Adelaidean age, a programme of soil auger drilling and calcrete sampling conducted 20...
