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...

Shallow, open pit mineable near-surface coal within Permian sediments along the eastern rim of the Boorthanna Trough was the target of exploration in EL 108 and in adjoining EL 104 to the south. After conducting photo-interpretation on aerial...

TARGET: Coal horizons developed within Mesozoic sediments on the south-western margin of the Great Artesian Basin. RESULTS: Two vertical rotary mud holes (total 122 m) were drilled, transecting Mesozoic sediments and reaching basement at relatively...

In a search for possible Proterozoic - Cainozoic unconformity - related, concealed sedimentary uranium deposits in an area of the Eucla Basin located 60 km north of Fowlers Bay, 17 rotary holes totalling 711.8 m were put down along 4 traverses across...

Drilling of 5 holes, plus a resistivity survey, indicate low potential for sedimentary uranium.

Drilling, groundwater sampling and geophysical logging of 3 holes totalling 1500 feet did not detect any anomalous radioactivity.

Renewed exploration of the former Mutooroo mines area and adjacent localities which also lie within outcropping Willyama Complex basement rocks, searching for economic deposits of massive copper sulphides, has comprised intensive regional and detailed...

In exploration conducted over an area of basin margin Tertiary sedimentation located south-west and south of the Beltana railway station, initial analyses of groundwater samples taken from 44 water bores (maximum assay value 40 ppm U) indicated...

The Delamerian basement to the Murray Basin has been selected as the focus region for a major Geological Survey of South Australia project being conducted as part of the MinEx CRC National Drilling Initiative...

Exploration for unconformity-related uranium deposits has been performed within the subject ELs by Pancontinental Mining on behalf of joint venture partners since 1979. The initial exploration concept was to look for economic deposits occurring at or...

This report provides a summary of high-precision chemical abrasion-isotope dilution-thermal ionisation mass spectrometry (CA-IDTIMS) U-Pb geochronology performed on zircon grains from five samples of Hiltaba Suite granites collected at locations...

A sequence of Cambrian rocks buried beneath thin Phanerozoic cover on the western edge of the Murray Basin was explored for possible skarn-related base metal mineralisation associated with concealed Ordovician granitic intrusions, for stratiform...

This geochronological study was undertaken within the scope of the Mineral Systems Drilling Program (MSDP), a program that was aimed at improving the understanding of the geology and prospectivity of the southern Gawler Ranges margin area on northern...
