The availability of good quality groundwater from two Tertiary confined aquifers (T1 and T2) under the Northern Adelaide Plains (NAP) has encouraged the development of over 3000 hectares of horticulture in the area since the 1950s. At present,...

The community water supplies at Kalka, Mimili and Kenmore Park in recent times were insufficient for emergencies, while the wells at Amata were in poor condition. In this remedial work program, drilling of three new wells at Kalka has doubled the...

Sedimentary uranium orebodies within Tertiary palaeochannels were the target of exploration in the area of the Siccus River, south of Lake Frome. Extensive research into available open file past exploration data allowed the identification of both...

The technical development and operational commencement stage of the Beverley in situ leach uranium mining project are herein discussed from the viewpoint of hydrogeological factors. The author summarises the uranium deposit's hydrogeological setting...

The Groundwater (Border Agreement) Act of 1985 provides the legislative framework for the joint management of the groundwater resources along the South Australia/Victoria State border. The Act established a 40 km wide Designated Area along the...

Exploration over the licence area was severely restricted due to its being located entirely within the Yellabinna Regional Reserve, and because of unresolved Native Title claims. Initially, acquisition of a detailed aeromagnetic survey, comprising...

This paper synthesizes the findings of Frontier's exploratory efforts over the past three years, and makes recommendations for an ongoing exploration programme following and consequent to the economically unsuccessful outcome of drilling Blinman nos 1...

Groundwater flows mainly through two major aquifer systems: a regionally unconfined aquifer, and an underlying confined aquifer. The two aquifers are separated by a low permeability confining bed (or aquitard). Determining the degree of hydraulic...

Photo lineament analysis of an area centred on Mount Ogilvie, 30 km north-east of Leigh Creek, identified several targets considered to be potentially prospective for mineralisation. During a brief field visit seeking work clearance from native title...

The state of water resources in the Mount Lofty Ranges has been the subject of discussion for at least 10 years. As early as 1989, it was suggested that controls were necessary to restrict the development of specific activities where it could be...

Report details engineering designs, drawings and costings for a new commercial scale leaching plant intended by E-Z to treat 70,000 tons/year of its crushed Beltana willemite ore having an average feed grade of about 40% Zn. The enriched, dissolved...

The run-of-mine ore from Beltana requires size reduction prior to introduction to any further process, whether it be a beneficiating or extractive process. Two methods of extraction are being considered: namely, leaching, which requires beneficiation...

A review of previous exploration indicated prospectivity for secondary Cu mineralisation near old workings in the Willouran Hill area, approximately 20 km south-west of Marree. A more systematic evaluation of anomalous Au was also considered to be...

An assessment of the water resources of the southern Fleurieu Peninsula has been carried out in response to concerns raised by local government and the community regarding the use and management of water resources in the region. This report discusses...

Water well monitoring data from wells on Aboriginal lands (Pitjantjatjara, Yalata and Nepabunna) are summarised for the period April to October 2000. Equipment failure was high, with faults recorded at 17 wells, particularly of the 2100P standing...
