The COPLEY 1:250 000 map area includes the northern Flinders Ranges and the southern part of the Willouran Ranges. It is bounded to the west by the Lake Torrens Sunkland and, to the east, by the Lake Frome Plains. A thick sequence of older Precambrian...

At South Hill, Willouran Ranges, the lower member of the Skillogalee Dolomite contains new form of Baicalia, B. blastophora. The Wonoka Formation contains an indeterminate form of Linella in the Willouran Ranges and Tungussia inna at Bunyeroo Gorge....

Brief geological information is given for points to be visited over eight days as illustration of the Adelaide System in South Australia, with an emphasis on Adelaidean glacigene rocks. The Callanna Beds are seen in the Arkaroola region, the Aldgate...

Stromatolites afford a means of stratigraphic subdivision and correlation in Precambrian sequences which, contain few or no other fossils. Detailed field and laboratory studies are necessary in order to classify stromatolites. Determination of the...

Investigations of the Lyndhurst Diapir were started after its reservation in January 1966. Early work consisted of the collection and analysis of orientation and reconnaissance stream sediment (513 samples) and soil samples (2016 samples). The...

Rocks belonging to the upper part of the Adelaide System and the overlying Cambrian, outcrop in the eastern part of the Beltana area in the Nuccaleena Dome, and form the basement underlying the more recent sediments to the west. In the central and...

A small area located on the southern Lake Torrens Plains immediately west of the ABC Range was taken up to allow evaluation of its potential for having buried economic sedimentary coal and/or uranium mineralisation occurrences. There are no...

Several small areas in the vicinity of the Mount Coffin Diapir, which covers ~5 square km within the north-central Flinders Ranges immediately to the south-east of Copley, have been explored with the hope of finding additional copper resources near...

A small licence area located on the Flinders Ranges piedmont plain south-east of Lake Torrens was taken up by Jim Allender to investigate the IOCG potential of a discrete regional gravity anomaly which he had identified from data in the public domain,...

Two portions of an exploration licence covering ground surrounding the Mountain-of-Light copper mine, respectively 4 km north-east and south-east of Copley, have been relinquished due to their perceived diminished potential for discovering economic...

Copper Range's principal exploration targets in the Adelaide Fold Belt are secondary, near-surface oxide copper deposits that are structurally controlled and related to hydrothermal events focussed along faults late in the deformational history of the...

A search primarily directed at assessing the stratiform copper and magnesite potential of an area centred 50 km south-west of Marree has consisted mainly of office studies comprising the collection and review of open file geoscientific data. Early in...

During licence Year 11 (2012-2013), David Miller rehabilitated his three drillsites that had been used in April 2011, delivered representative drill samples from his six holes to the DMITRE Drill Core Library, and further considered the logistics of...

An area surrounding the historic copper-mining town of Blinman in the central-northern Flinders Ranges has been explored for possible economic diapir-related copper mineralisation, similar to that encountered nearby at the formerly significant Blinman...

An area centred ~90 km south-east of Leigh Creek has been explored for buried sediment-hosted stratabound base metal mineralisation. During the first licence year, after a field reconnaissance had revealed the paucity of alluvial sediments within the...

A small area located immediately east of Leigh Creek and the Copley and southern Telford basins' coalfields, has been explored for possible economic diapir-related stratabound occurrences of base metals and gold. During the first licence year, the...

Copper and gold exploration is being conducted within a small area centred about 100 km east of Hawker, which it is thought has potential for epigenetic vein style mineralisation within buried Adelaidean sandstone and shale strata in a stratabound...

The objectives of this research project were: 1. to determine the petrological history of the component rocks in the diapir, and, if possible, the origin of the copper found in blocks or rafts of sedimentary rock now included within diapiric breccia...
