An EL farm-out promotional document which summarises BHP's recent integrated exploration activity over 7 ELs in the Flinders Ranges, looking for Mississippi Valley type base metal mineralization in Cambrian age sediments, and which nominates prospects...

Hillgrove Resources Limited (Hillgrove) was granted ADI Round 2 programme subsidy funds to allow it to undertake diamond drill testing of a combined MT - gravity - magnetic anomaly located near its Kanmantoo mine, which it has termed the Stella...

Possible economic stratabound or epigenetic lead-zinc or copper deposits, formed in altered carbonate rocks lying marginal to the Wirrealpa Diapir, were the targets of new exploration centred on the area of the old Wirrealpa lead-silver mine....

As part of a regional project of exploration for Mississippi Valley type (MVT) lead-zinc mineralisation emplaced in tectonically and structurally 'prepared ground' within Lower Cambrian limestones, Dampier/BHP investigated rocks of this age which...

The included mineralogical reports and explanatory prior company correspondence give the results of, and rationale behind, a lengthy programme of mill product sampling and sample description for weekly to monthly process monitoring throughflow samples...

TARGET: Mississippi Valley - type stratiform lead and copper mineralisation formed near the base of the Cambrian sedimentary sequence on the Ediacara structure. EXPLORATION: Initially, in 1962, the company reviewed the progress of then occurring SADM...

Reconnaissance (20.8 line km) and follow-up (66.4 line km) IP surveys, ground magnetic surveys (18.1 line km) and regional and detailed geological mapping (1:12,000 scale) were carried out. 782 semi-regional stream sediment samples, and 1038 follow-up...

TARGET: Gold and base metals around old gold workings. EXPLORATION: Limited BLEG stream geochemistry. RESULTS: Weakly anomalous gold values were recorded in streams sourcing known mineralised areas.

As part of a regional search for economic uranium and copper mineralisation, the US-based company Kennecott Copper in November 1968 performed a semi-detailed airborne spectrometer survey of 550 line miles in the Shamrock Valley - Freeling Heights -...

TARGET: Downdip extensions of known Cambrian stratabound mineralisation occurring at the Eric lead-zinc prospect, principally along a mineralised, disconformable interpreted syn-depositional palaeosurface developed within the Wilkawillina Limestone....

Exploration targeted Pb-Zn and Cu-Au mineralisation within covered extensions of the Broken Hill Block in the Starvation Lake area near the SA-NSW border. An aeromagnetic survey identified three targets which were followed up with ground magnetic...

Exploration undertaken in the relinquished portion of a licence area located north-east of Olary, searching for possible economic Palaeoproterozoic stratiform base and precious metal deposits, has comprised a 2526 line km detailed aerial magnetic and...

Exploration for possible economic buried syngenetic / stratiform base metals mineralisation that may have formed in the Parndana area of Kangaroo Island consisted of the acquisition of an airborne EM/magnetic (GEOTEM) survey covering abandoned old...

Exploration for Broken Hill type stratiform Pb-Zn and Olympic Dam style iron oxide - associated Cu-Au mineralisation within the covered extensions of the Mount Painter Inlier east of Moolawatana Homestead included an extensive low-level aeromagnetic...

TARGET: Broken Hill or Aggeneys - Gamsberg type stratiform base metal deposits within the metamorphosed Palaeoproterozoic Hutchison Group chemical sediments in the Corunna area, possibly hosted by geochemically anomalous carbonate and silicate facies...

In a search for possible economic buried stratiform copper sulphide deposits (> 1 Mt in size) that may have formed within Cambrian metasediments in the vicinity of the abandoned Wheal Ellen and Strathalbyn mines, an IP survey was used to define...

A grid of 114 shallow drillholes over an area geologically similar to the Cattlegrid deposit (Whyalla Sandstone directly overlying Pandurra Formation) located 2 minor copper anomalies worthy of follow up drilling. There was close correlation between...

Multicommodity exploration undertaken in the Commodore - Parachilna area of the west-central Flinders Ranges, just outside of the western boundary of the newly proclaimed national park and the included Heysen Range, has comprised limited gravel...

An area centred ~70 km north-east of Yalata and lying ~30 km to the east of the Jacinth and Ambrosia heavy mineral deposits is being explored by Doray Minerals Limited under a joint venture agreement it has made with grant licensee Iluka Resources...
