Five open rotary holes totalling 614.7 m were drilled and geophysically logged to test a possible, resistivity - interpreted southern extension of the Lower Tertiary Yarramba Palaeochannel. The existence of this additional channel was confirmed, but...

In a search for possible north-westwards thickening, basinwards extensions to some thin Cretaceous coal seams which had been reported from the 1914 drilling of an artesian water bore on Finniss Springs Station, Endeavour Oil drilled 2 vertical rotary...

Reconnaissance airborne magnetic/radiometric/EM/VLF-EM surveying (3000 line miles at 425 feet mean flight elevation) of a wide area in the southern Flinders Ranges, including the Wirrabara Syncline, yielded 12 magnetic anomalies of interest as...

As part of a regional search for possible economic deposits of sedimentary uranium in the central Eyre Peninsula region, a reconnaissance open hole rotary drilling programme (8 holes for 1715 feet) was undertaken in November 1970 along the eastern...

Rock chip and stream sediment samples were analysed for U, Th and base metals. In addition, water samples from bores were analysed for U. All assays were low. It was concluded that the Hiltaba Granite has slightly elevated but insignificant levels...

Exploration for possible economic uranium deposits within the Carpentarian Tarcoola Beds near Tarcoola comprised the flying of a 2500 line km airborne gamma ray spectrometer and magnetometer survey in December 1975 (using 400 m spaced north-south...

In a search for possible remaining economic primary or secondary uranium deposits in an area of known such mineral occurrences located around Mount Victoria, a consultant was engaged by Esso Minerals to conduct detailed 1:12,000 scale geological...

Exploration for shallowly buried, surface mineable Permian coal in sediments deposited along the southern rim of the Boorthanna Trough, approximately 50 km south-west of William Creek, has consisted of a review of existing geological and gravity data,...

3 RC/rotary holes were drilled to test aeromagnetic anomalies. Results were not sufficiently encouraging to retain the tenement.

Exploration carried out mainly to look for possible large primary deposits of uranium ore in localities surrounding Ethiudna Hill initially addressed the potential of several hard rock showings of uranium mineralisation which had been found by...

Exploration for sedimentary uranium in the western Lake Frome region near Mount Chambers, conducted in conjunction with similar work on adjoining SMLs, has comprised sampling and analysis of groundwaters, an airborne scintillometer survey, and a...

10 reverse circulation holes were drilled, totalling 311 m. Surface radiometric effects were attributed to groundwater Ra and/or Rn, or to evaporitic concentrations of uranium daughter products. Results from drilling and from track etch (alpha)...

In a continuation of uranium exploration being carried out over the oldest basement rocks forming inliers to the Adelaide Geosyncline within the southern Mount Lofty Ranges, several minor radiometric anomalies near Mount Compass, that were indicated...

Exploration for possible economic stratabound / hydrothermal deposits of base metals and perhaps also uranium, within a large area surrounding Peterborough, has consisted of field inspection and rock chip geochemical sampling of known historic mines,...

TARGET: Roll-front uranium deposits in buried Tertiary sediments. EXPLORATION: An airborne radiometric survey of 600 line miles, and reconnaissance groundwater sampling, followed by the drilling of 42 rotary holes (total 17,928 feet), 24 of which were...
