Copper and gold exploration has been conducted within an area centred about 80 km east of Hawker, which it was thought had potential for epigenetic vein style mineralisation within buried Adelaidean sandstone and shale strata, formed in a stratabound...

Within an area of the Wilgena and Christie Domains centred 40 km north of Tarcoola, exploration is continuing for Archaean to Proterozoic basement-hosted epithermal, hydrothermal and metamorphic type gold and base metal occurrences. Here an 841 square...

An area extending to the north of Kapinnie on western Eyre Peninsula area is being explored by grant licensee Anglo American and (since March 2003) its joint venture partner Lynch Mining, looking for possible buried economic Archaean volcanic or...

A large area centred on the Wilkawillina Gorge of Ten Mile Creek, in the central Flinders Ranges near Oraparinna, is being explored for possible buried economic zinc silicate (willemite) epigenetic or replacement mineralisation of Beltana type, as...

Extensive literature and geological and geochemical field investigations of historic mines and prospects at the Mount Grainger and Oodla Wirra Goldfields have failed to disclose any remaining economic gold occurrences. The sparse native gold occurs...

The licensee's compilation of existing geological, geochemical and geophysical data has indicated to it that the Padthaway area is fertile for volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) style polymetallic mineralisation, with economic deposits possibly...

To date exploration in the Burra region of the Adelaide Geosyncline has focussed on historic copper-gold oxide workings, with the aim of delineating further mineralisation along strike, or sulphide mineralisation at depth. Lately however, rather than...

Possible extensions to historic workings for lead, gold and copper in the Pinda Springs area, 55 km south-east from Copley, were tested by a limited programme of rock chip sampling and panning of creek sediments. Mineralised veins with visible galena...

Base metal mineralisation, indicated by newly discovered shafts at the historic Atkinson Pb-Ag-Cu-Zn mine, was the impetus for exploration in the upland area 20 km north-west from Cowell. Grab samples collected from shafts, stockpiles and dumps varied...

Two small ground portions together totalling 20.9 square km or ~42% of the former area of EL 4480 have been relinquished in partial fulfilment of the terms of the 2014 Flinders Ranges Project tenements' Amalgamated Expenditure Agreement made with...

58 square km of the Area C southernmost sub-block of EL 5320 have been relinquished to compensate for a shortfall in exploration spending against commitments. During the past seven years, the only work performed on the relinquished ground was the...

A group of jointly reported tenements in the northern Flinders Ranges region is being explored for economic base metal mineralisation that might have formed within Late Proterozoic to Middle Cambrian continental rift margin sediments, probably with...

During the 5-year period 2005-2010, intensified exploration undertaken at Menninnie Dam was focussed on the discovery and delineation of structurally controlled hydrothermal Pb-Zn-Ag mineralisation. Carbonate-rich Hutchison Group metasediments forming...

Two adjoining licence areas located ~50-70 km to the east and south-east of Blinman are being explored for possible economic buried willemite (zinc silicate), scholzite (zinc phosphate) and other base metal mineralisation associated with particular...

During the sixth year of the project, licensee Adelaide Resources did not do any exploration directed at gold or base metals that might possibly occur on the subject tenements. However, its joint venture partner Quasar Resources undertook significant...

Exploration for possible economic vein-style and structurally controlled gold with Adelaidean bedrock sediments in an area located between the towns of Yunta and Manna Hill was conducted using low cost remote sensing, geochemical and geophysical...

During the third year of exploration nominally ending on 1/7/2002 [and subsequent to the starting date of 5/3/2002 for the application of provisions of the Flinders Ranges Project's multi-tenement Amalgamation of Expenditure Agreement (AEA), whence...
