An area centred approximately 50 km south-west of Port Augusta is being explored for buried economic occurrences of gold, base metals and uranium primary mineralisation which may be genetically associated with the past emplacement there of the Gawler...

This dataset presents the observations and interpretive results of a project aiming to define and classify the complex suite of volcanic rocks found outcropping within the Gawler Ranges, as a corollary to regional geological mapping by the SA...

Historical workings at the Glenloth Goldfield were the target for 10 exploratory RC drillholes put down by Minotaur Exploration during May-June 2006 as a PACE Initiative Year 3 project. Their accepted proposal was to drill a series of RC percussion...

An area lying ~70 km east and south-east of Oodnadatta is being explored for possible buried economic giant Broken Hill type (BHT) stratiform Pb-Zn-Ag deposits which may be contained within strongly deformed and metamorphosed Palaeo- to...

A very small (35 square km) area located ~35 km west-northwest of Olary and covering part of the Weekeroo Inlier is being explored for possible buried epigenetic stratiform Broken Hill type Pb-Zn-Ag and VHMS (volcanic hosted massive sulphide) style...

An area centred ~70 km east of Oodnadatta has been explored for possible buried economic giant Broken Hill type (BHT) stratiform Pb-Zn-Ag deposits which might be contained within strongly deformed and metamorphosed Palaeo- to Mesoproterozoic...

An area centred ~50 km south-east of Tailem Bend has been explored for possible economic buried primary stratiform and epithermal deposits of base metals that may have formed within Cambrian bedrock, close to where the current licensees and previous...

TARGET: Possible diamonds and diapir-associated copper mineralisation in an area extending south and west from Lyndhurst. EXPLORATION: Drainage geochemical and gravel sampling, ground magnetic and IP surveys, and percussion and shallow RAB drilling of...

The intersection of massive halite in the ?Lower Palaeozoic sequence in Occidental Petroleum's Mercury 1 wildcat oil exploration well drilled in the offshore Polda Basin generated interest in the Tuckey area onshore for potash associated with similar...

During exploration carried out in an area located approximately 60 km south-west of Anna Creek, Newmont targeted Zambian Copperbelt - style mineralisation similar to perceived equivalents of the then newly discovered and poorly understood Olympic Dam...

Exploration for possible Archaean submarine fissure volcanogenic copper-nickel deposits, and for Silverton (Colorado) vein - type late stage hydrothermal base metal-silver-gold mineralisation associated with collapsed Gawler Range caldera structures,...

27 rotary drill holes (total 213m.) tested for copper-nickel mineralisation associated with a gabbro margin. It was concluded that copper-nickel values of several hundred parts per million is restricted to a small area near the gabbro/hornfels...

This student vacational project report, for the Department's Petroleum Exploration Div., aimed to correlate the basement rocks met with in Great Australian Bight area offshore and near onshore petroleum exploration wells with outcropping formations...

The eastern Gawler Craton is the location of the Olympic Cu-Au Province, a world-class metallogenic province known for iron oxide - associated copper-gold (IOCG) deposits such as Olympic Dam, Prominent Hill and Carrapateena (Skirrow et al., 2007;...

Copper minerals are widespread within the Oraparinna and Enorama diapiric structures and along faults which radiate therefrom; some thirty copper prospects are known and barytes lodes, including the deposits being mined by S.A. Barytes Ltd., are...

Potential sources of breakwater construction material in the area surrounding Port MacDonnell have been investigated. Deposits of dolomite, basalt and flint pebbles in the area were inspected, and the presence of granite near Dergholm in Victoria has...

A review made of the literature covering post-Precambrian volcanism in South Australia has indicated that less well-known, minor, mainly acid to intermediate volcanic rocks of the lower Palaeozoic are separated by a wide time gap from the better known...
