A chemical survey of Dawesley Creek in the Brukunga Mine area has concluded that seepages from the southern mine waste dumps located alongside the creek contribute the greater proportion of pollutants (acidity, iron, aluminium, manganese, zinc,...

The objective of the present investigation was to obtain, by means of a continuous pilot plant, operating data for the appraisal and design of a full-scale neutralization plant for the treatment of acid mine drainage (AMD) at Brukunga. Laboratory...

Results of a programme of laboratory scale testwork conducted to investigate fresh water leaching of epsomite ore originating from Coober Pedy in South Australia are as follows: 1). The ore when leached readily producing brines of uniform...

A licence area in the Olary district comprising three separate sub-blocks has been explored for possible economic stratabound iron ore occurrences within partly concealed Neoproterozoic bedrock. The subject ground was taken up by Wentworth Metals...

An area of 185 square km was taken up by SAPEX to allow it to evaluate afresh known sub-bituminous coal measures in the Permian Mount Toondina Formation that constitute the East Wintinna coal deposit. This deposit had been discovered by Meekatharra...

Ground covering the known extent of three shallowly buried Eocene lignite deposits located in the Port Wakefield district was taken up to allow their delineation in tonnage and quality terms, to modern industry standards (i.e. meeting the Joint Ore...

A licence consisting of two separate small subareas, both located in the Yunta - Nillinghoo district, was taken up to explore for possible economic stratabound iron ore (magnetite) hosted by metamorphosed Adelaidean glacial sedimentary strata of the...

A licence consisting of three separate small subareas located just north of the Barrier Highway between Manna Hill and Winnininnie was taken up to explore for possible economic stratabound iron ore (magnetite) hosted by metamorphosed Adelaidean...

A very small licence area located 13 km north-west of Olary township was taken up to explore for possible economic stratabound iron ore (magnetite) hosted by metamorphosed Adelaidean glacial sedimentary strata of the Yudnamutana Subgroup. During...

An area comprising three sub-blocks that cover most of the western side of the Outalpa Inlier in the Olary district was initially explored for possible buried epigenetic White Dam style primary gold mineralisation. In 2015, with a change of licence...

A small licence area centred ~ 28 km south-southeast of Yunta which consists of two separate sub-blocks is being explored for possible economic stratabound iron ore mineralisation that could occur within buried glacial tillitic/siltstone strata of the...

A large area situated on the north-eastern side of the Stuart Range, comprising three separate sub-blocks that taken together are centred ~20 km north of Coober Pedy township, has been explored for possible economic near-surface accumulations of the...

A licence area centred ~25 km west of Olary township has been explored for possible economic stratabound iron ore mineralisation that could occur within buried glacial tillitic/siltstone strata of the Neoproterozoic Braemar Ironstone, beneath sparse...

An area located immediately east and north-east of Coober Pedy is being explored for possible economic near-surface accumulations of the evaporite industrial mineral epsomite. Historic drilling and costeaning in this area performed by CRA Exploration...
