Iron ore exploration undertaken within two small licence subareas centred 60 km south of Yunta, in the vicinity of the outcropping Razorback Ridge banded iron formation of Sturtian age, was directed at assessing the economic potential of the...

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 large area located immediately south and south-west of Olary has been explored initially for possible economic buried primary epithermal to mesothermal copper-gold and gold only mineralisation that might have formed in Adelaidean and older bedrock,...

A very small area centred ~70 km south-east of Olary, and lying immediately west of the SA / NSW border and on the northern edge of the Murray Basin, has been explored for possible economic stratabound iron ore occurrences within concealed...

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...

An area centred ~70 km south-southeast of Olary has been explored for buried mineral sands placer deposits that may have formed within the Cainozoic Murray Basin sedimentary cover, as well as for possible economic stratabound iron ore occurrences that...

A small licence area located on the northern margin of the Murray Basin, approximately 70 km north-east of Burra and about 40 km south of the previously studied Razorback Ridge banded iron formation magnetite deposit, has been explored for possible...

The MARREE mapsheet area includes the south-western portion of the Strzelecki Desert plus parts of the Tirari Desert, north-western Flinders Ranges and north-eastern Willouran Ranges, between latitudes 29 to 30 degrees S and longitudes 138 to 139...

The CALLABONNA map area includes the southern end of the Strzelecki Desert and the north- eastern Flinders Ranges, between latitudes 29° to 30° S and longitudes 139° 30' to 141° E. Cameron Corner adjoins New South Wales and Queensland in the...

As follow-up to a programme of uranium exploration lately carried out in its adjoining EL 63, Tricentrol chose to drill an additional area of prospective Tertiary Murray Basin sediments present in the vicinity of the Anabama Fault zone, to further its...

Base metal exploration carried out in the vicinity of historic copper workings in the Mount Rose area, situated approximately 30 miles east-northeast of Copley, has consisted of detailed 1:1500 scale geological mapping, soil and rock chip sampling,...

In August 1972 Cultus Pacific commenced exploring a number of historic copper prospects near Lyndhurst in the northern Flinders Ranges, with a view to assessing their feasibility for open-cut mining. The programme of work completed so far has...

Exploration for stratabound copper mineralisation in the Mount Lyndhurst area, allied with intensive prospecting of existing Mineral Claims and other historic base metal prospects and reported showings, has demonstrated a favourable geological...

A consultant's technical review was received on existing recent exploration data originating from the SA Mines Department, for the Mount Coffin Diapir and its immediate environment. It was found that significant geochemical and induced polarisation...

After reviewing the existing Anaconda regional stream sediment geochemical anomalies, North Flinders Mines attempted to replicate the reported high zinc values in the north-east of the licence area, by conducting a higher density reconnaissance stream...

A small area of the northern Flinders Ranges surrounding the Nichols Nob copper occurrences was explored for possible economic massive stratiform copper deposits, targeting the known mineralised Yudnamutana Subgroup metasediments. Work comprised a...

Two historic copper mining prospects located in the Mount Coffin area, east of Copley, have been studied by a consultant geologist to determine their economic potential, following the recent conduct of separate appraisal drilling programmes by the...

As a result of the work outlined in this report it is concluded that the possibility of economic tonnages of copper ore within the area of Special Mining Lease no. 165 are restricted to three localities, Breaden Hill, Boorloo and East Rook. All three...
