A small area centred ~13 km north-west of Manna Hill is being explored for possible buried primary hydrothermal gold deposits within Neoproterozoic bedrock, as part of a broader search for same in a region which has significant surficial gold deposits...

An area centred ~30 km north of Winnininnie is being explored for possible buried primary hydrothermal gold deposits within Neoproterozoic bedrock, as part of a broader search for same in a region which has significant surficial gold deposits which...

An area of the Adelaide Fold Belt centred ~20 km east of Whyte Yarcowie is being explored for possible buried economic primary orogenic gold, as the cover sediments there are gold-bearing. Ground was taken up to cover a region of broad westwards (i.e...

Surface geochemical sampling and inspections of known historic old copper workings in the vicinity of the Yednalue Dome, north of Carrieton, were inconclusive for accurately detecting further buried supergene mineralisation, or for establishing...

Exploration of an historic gold mining field and surrounding area located approximately 20 km north-east of Burra and situated due west of the Delamerian Bendigo Granite batholith has targeted possible unexploited fine-grained gold, thought to exist...

TARGET: Telfer-style gold in the Wabricoola area, NW of Yunta. EXPLORATION: Image processing of BMR airborne magnetic survey data, and detailed stream sediment (452) and soil (110) geochemical sampling. RESULTS: Anomalous low order gold values that...

TARGET: An aeromagnetic anomaly located 12 km north-west of Witchitie Homestead was investigated as to whether it is indicative of a possible carbonatite source. EXPLORATION: Ground magnetic surveys, geological field reconnaissance and limited...

TARGET: Gold and base metals in the Belton - Paratoo area, NE of Orroroo. EXPLORATION: Reconnaissance geological mapping and rock chip (23) geochemical sampling of areas identified by a remote sensing (thematic mapping) study. RESULTS: No follow-up...

TARGET: Gold and base metals in the Belton-Paratoo area, north-east of Orroroo. EXPLORATION: Reconnaissance geological mapping and rock chip geochemical sampling of areas identified by remote sensing (thematic mapping). RESULTS: No follow-up was...

TARGET: Possible economic, open-pit mineable stratiform low grade gold and copper deposits within Adelaidean units of the Nackara Arc, in an area lying west of and including Yunta. EXPLORATION: A detailed geological field reconnaissance, review of...

9 rock chip, mine dump, tailings, and hand auger alluvium samples were collected from abandoned gold workings. No significant assays were returned, and the area has limited potential for either bedrock or alluvial gold.

TARGET: Stratabound gold in prospective areas of Adelaidean sedimentary outcrop peripheral to the Waukaringa Goldfield. EXPLORATION: After undertaking a literature review and assessment of previous exploration results, plus a regional geophysical...

TARGET: Economic fine-grained, Telfer style gold mineralisation occurring as syngenetic stratabound deposits formed in sedimentary basins during or soon after periods of basin subsidence and instability. The eastern limb of the large, overturned...

TARGET: Stratabound gold, or hydrothermally altered vein stockwork copper-gold mineralisation that commonly is structurally emplaced within folded, brittle fractured competent Adelaidean metasedimentary units, in an area 20 km east of Peterborough....

EL 417 Wirrabara was secured by CRA to investigate previously untested aeromagnetic, induced polarisation and resistivity anomalies in the Wirrabara - Charlton area, and a reported kimberlite at Bangor. Work has consisted of: - 3 line km of IP...

As part of a regional search for possible economic stratabound Kanmantoo / Mount Torrens type base metal mineralisation, CRA undertook follow-up geochemical sampling traverses in areas surrounding Eudunda, where the SA Department of Mines and Energy...

2 main areas are outlined as likely sources, high quality marble to the N of the Penrice quarries and quartzite from many localities NW and close to Tanunda, but of lower quality.

Quaternary calcrete for surfacing gravel roads is limited. Cleaved and jointed shales and siltstones in the Tindelpina Shale Member are being exploited on the eastern limb of a syncline and test pits are recommended on the western limb. Low hills and...

Five hundred drainage geochemical samples were collected in an area of 16½ square miles over the Mount Grainger Diapir and surrounding country rock, during February and March 1963. Results of this survey outlined an extensive copper, lead, zinc...
