Competing groundwater use is a problem in the vicinity of the Mount Barker Golf Club grounds, which has been recognized by the parties involved and government since late 1985. A well monitoring network for both water level and salinity was set up and...

Exploration for opal, carried out in an area of the Stuart Range located approximately 130 km north-northwest of Coober Pedy, has included a compilation of geological and opal occurrence data, photogeological interpretation of aerial photographs,...

Uranium Equities, the licensee parent and operator of the seven Marla Project tenements, is exploring them with the aim of discovering economic iron oxide - associated copper–gold±uranium (IOCGU) deposits, that it considers may have given rise to a...

An area taken up to comprise the middle member of a block of three tenements located in the Myall Creek region ~ 30 km west-southwest of Port Augusta has been explored for possible economic buried stratabound copper sulphide mineralisation as well as...

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...

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...

15 vertical exploratory auger holes totalling 348.4 m were drilled in a search for shallowly buried deposits of aluminous clays or claystone located close to the licensee's Rapid Bay limestone quarry and coatal shipment facility, that might be of use...

In a search for possible buried kimberlite intrusions that may source authenticated historical diamond finds at the Echunga gold diggings, CRAE drilled 3 vertical percussion holes (total penetration 288 m) on 3 selected magnetic anomalies out of 30...

TARGET: Cross-cutting gold mineralised quartz reefs / veining, primarily in the Tarcowie Siltstone; gold in known mineralised zones in the Saddleworth Formation; and circular features as outlined from Landsat image interpretation. EXPLORATION: Rock...

In October 1975, Mount Gunson mine operator Pacminex determined that the composition of mineable copper sulphide ore potentially obtainable from the undeveloped MG14 area would very likely be more difficult to process than existing Cattlegrid mine...

An assessment of the oil shale potential of marginal Great Artesian Basin sediments in South Australia was carried out, due mainly to their perceived stratigraphic and lithological similarity to Cretaceous strata in Queensland which host the very...

Possible high-yielding oil shales of the Middle Cretaceous Toolebuc Formation, believed to be present within 125 m of the ground surface along the Dalhousie Anticline in the vicinity of previously drilled Pedirka Basin petroleum exploration wells...

At the request of several interested parties from Coober Pedy, 17 channel and grab samples of alunite-bearing clays obtained from opal workings near the town were analysed for their alunite content and its purity. Recent inspections by the author of...

New palynology has confirmed the pattern of algal maxima associated with high gamma ray well log response within the Laira Shale, and indicates that there are 3 major and regionally correlatable 'hot shale' horizons, plus a less obvious one, within...

Report presents a consultant's independent assessment of the petroleum potential and risked prospect status for PEL 41, using data provided by the licensee.

Preliminary analysis of 6 core samples from 1237-1266 metres depth in Giles 1 has revealed poor to fair organic richness, low concentrations of extractable organic matter and low hydrocarbon yields. Rock-Eval pyrolysis has confirmed the presence of...

A collection of miscellaneous reports referring to geochemical sampling of costeans and exposed bedrock, drilling, mapping and petrology work that has recently been carried out in the re-developed Burra open cut copper mine. The focus of the work...
