Follow up to stream sediment sampling near Oodnadatta in the Mount Dutton area suggests that anomalous nickel, chromium and cobalt values are associated with ironstone, and anomalous niobium with geodes. No kimberlites were discovered.

Stream sediment sampling southeast of Oodnadatta in the Mount Kingston area revealed no significant anomalies. Rare pyrope was identified in some samples, but no kimberlite were discovered.

Exploration of an area located approximately 10 miles north of Manna Hill, seeking possible economic Zambian Copperbelt style stratabound copper deposits, has consisted only of an orientation geochemical survey followed by field inspection of...

Reconnaissance and detailed bulk loam sampling undertaken to look for diamonds or kimberlite indicator minerals in the vicinity of the Pualco Anticline, plus spectrographic analyses of the derived heavy mineral concentrates for gold and base metals...

A magnatometer survey was carried out by the writer at the Ethiudna Cobalt-Copper Mine on the recommendation of D.King (geologist) to attempt to locate cupriferous lodes which may occur concealed under alluvium by virtue of their association with...

Irregular oxidised orebodies up to about 3 feet thick, containing copper carbonates, quartz, sphaerocobaltite (cobalt carbonate) and wad (hydrated manganese oxide), occupy both shear zones aligned parallel with bedding, and crush zones developed...

Two diamond drillholes, designed to test at depths from 70 to 100 feet the most favorable outcrops of cobalt-nickel mineralisation, failed to intersect extensions of the lode. Secondary erythrite mineralisation found along bedding seams, joints, and...

In a regional soil sampling survey over Willyama Complex rocks on parts of the Outalpa 1:50 000 Sheet, 2443 samples were collected at 25 metres intervals on 54 lines roughly 1km apart. These samples were analysed for CU, PB, Zn, Au, Mn, Mo, Co, Ni, V,...

89 samples were analysed for 18 elements. The mean cobalt value for the Umberatana Group is about 3 times the world average for shales.

Semi quantitative spectroscopy on samples from the Mount Howden Mine gave anomalous results. The best recording was 35cm of greater than 1% Zn, greater than 1% Pb and 10ppm Ag. An interval (10m thick) of above background copper, silver, lead, Zinc,...

The mines and mineral deposits in the proposed park are summarized from departmental records with list of references and plans available on microfilm.

Company exploration within the CURNAMONA 1:250 000 sheet area was reviewed by the study of data incorporated in the open file reports on 42 Special Mining Leases, 80 Exploration Licences and one group of Mining Leases dating from 1961. This data...

Following the detection in late 1997, by reconnaissance mobile metal ion partial leach analytical methods, of anomalous base and precious metal concentrations in the soil above several low amplitude magnetic anomalies on Tasman Resources' EL 2340, the...
