An area of 100 square km, located 45 km west of Kingscote, was taken to enable follow-up exploration of some anomalous stream sediment geochemical sample values in lead (to a maximum 3200 ppm Pb) previously discovered by Elcor (Australia) Pty Ltd, but...

The Australian Precambrian stratigraphy is discussed with the aid of rock correlation data obtained from the Bureau of Mineral Resources and radiogenic isotopic age determinations made by the Department of Geophysics, Australian National University....

As part of the South Australian Steel and Energy Project, Mines and Energy South Australia completed an exploration programme for iron ore at the Hawks Nest prospect during 1995 and 1996. Along with detailed magnetic and gravity surveys, the work...

A partial leach soil geochemical survey has been conducted over shallowly buried Cambrian Kanmantoo Trough metasediments in the Monarto South area. The survey was designed to cover a aeromagnetic high anomaly, that is interpreted to be related to a...

Geochemical indicators to buried stratabound copper mineralisation in the Cattlegrid orebody were studied in their primary and secondary dispersion patterns within the overburden, to try to elucidate the likely most effective elements and the possible...

CURNAMONA PROVINCE SUMMARY Age: Sedimentation - late Palaeoproterozoic to early Mesoproterozoic. Felsic and mafic volcanism - late Palaeoproterozoic to early Mesoproterozoic. Granitic intrusion - late Palaeoproterozoic to early...

Investigation of banded iron formation in the Lincoln Uplands of the Green Patch district for possible South West African type base metal sulphide deposits, consisted of rock chip and stored drill core sampling for trace metal and whole rock silicate...

Investigation of banded iron formation in the Lincoln Uplands of the Tumby Bay district for possible South West African type base metal sulphide deposits consisted of rock chip and soil sampling at potential gossanous outcrops, and limited drilling of...

Three observation bores were drilled within 1.5km of each other approximately 4km south-west from Waikerie. Depth ranged from 235 to 329m, substantially deeper than all othe bores in the area, and all Tertiary epochs are represented. The stratigraphic...

Moomba is the largest gas field discovered to date in the Cooper Basin. Eighteen wells have been drilled to evaluate and develop its resources; three into the smaller northern culmination, and the other fifteen into the southern culmination. Gas...

This study was undertaken by the Australian Mineral Development Laboratories on behalf of the South Australian Department of Mines and includes petrographic descriptions, heavy mineral and clay analyses, grain sorting, roundness and sphericity...

The Eastern Officer Basin in South Australia consists of a deep, east-west trending trough that flanks the southern margin of the Musgrave Block. From its northern margin south, to its axis the basin deepens with a very steep gradient, then shallows...

A licence area centred about 100 km north-east of Streaky Bay township, on the south-western perimeter of the Gawler Ranges, was taken up to explore for possible economic buried IOCG mineralisation or Tunkillia stye fracture controlled lode gold...

Reconnaissance investigations of outcropping rocks of the western and central Mulgathing Complex reveal a series of pelitic and psammitic sedimentary rocks, interleaved with generally mafic to intermediate composition meta-igneous lithologies. The...
