Six samples of iron ore, labelled Billeroo Main Peak, were received. It was requested that these samples weighing 310 pound be bulked for subsequent test work. It was requested that the investigation include wet and dry magnetic deparation, Davis Tube...

The South Australian Government Department of Mines requested an investigation into the beneficiation of iron ore from Peeralilla by various methods. Screening gravity and magnetic methods, flotation and roasting have been applied.

Large ferruginous concretions in the South Maslin Sand contain attractive botryoidal masses of iron oxides. They are prized as mineral specimens. Genesis of the concretions probably resulted from dissolution and subsequent precipitation of iron...

Exploration for possible economic hypogene base metal sulphide deposits associated with poorly exposed iron-rich linear outcrops, overlying faulted Archaean to Palaeoproterozoic basement which is obscured by extensive Cainozoic sedimentary cover rocks...

No field work was performed on the three subject licences during the period 2008-2010 inclusive. During 2010, Dominion Gold Operations undertook a desktop evaluation of the possible iron ore potential of the licences. During 2011, the licensee...

Two adjacent areas located immediately south and east of Woomera township were taken up to search for possible buried economic stratabound deposits of copper or other metals that may have formed in the Neoproterozoic and Mesoproterozoic cover sequence...

85 samples of potential mineral deposit- related surface ironstones (68 copper gossans, 6 lead-zinc gossans and 11 false gossans) were analysed chemically and examined mineragraphically in polished section to try to determine geological parameters...

Possible economic stratabound or epigenetic lead-zinc or copper deposits, formed in altered carbonate rocks lying marginal to the Wirrealpa Diapir, were the targets of new exploration centred on the area of the old Wirrealpa lead-silver mine....

Samples studied for stratigraphic identification.

Arising out of exploratory drilling carried out by Ironclad Mining in 2012, which aimed to test the shallow subsurface haematite ore potential of an ironstone outcrop located in the central north of the Wilcherry Hill licence area, an unexpected...

During the 2009-2010 reporting year, as part of the strategy to significantly advance the future development of the Hawks Nest Iron Ore Project, Western Plains Resources (WPG) successfully concluded a series of complex joint venture negotiations with...

This report reviews the available information on the region and presents a preliminary appraisal of the past nickel exploration data supplied by South Western Mining Co. Ltd. Current field and laboratory information has also been included. The study...

Stream sediment sampling, induced polarization surveys and a 44 drill hole rotary drilling program were undertaken over the Anabama Granite. The granite was found to be unmineralized except for greisened portions containing anomalous copper and...

Discontinuous ferruginous bodies appear to have replaced Cambrian calcareous beds along a shear zone with a maximum width of about 100 feet, and a length of 2500 feet. The northern outcrops may be low-grade silicified ferruginous limestone, while the...

Geological mapping and gravity traversing were carried out in the Northern Territory to test possible extensions to the Claude Hills nickeliferous ochre occurrence. Two gravity lows were detected, Zone C commencing in South Australia, and Zone D...
