Technical data related to the Banyula 1 well proposal, dealing with environmental protection, geological, drilling engineering and associated work practice methods.

Techniques for mitigating the environmental impacts of geophysical exploration track cutting, and for rehabilitating existing tracks in the central Australian arid zone, were researched. Detailed observations were made at 60 sites in a wide range of...

Copper and gold mineralisation associated with felsic, intermediate and mafic igneous intrusive rocks which have intruded Adelaidean and Cambrian metasediments in the Nackara Arc region has been the target of exploratory drilling conducted with the...

Report deals with an intermediary consultant's study of the socio-religious implications of locating three proposed PEL 24 1986 seismic lines within a 5500 square km area of the freehold Maralinga Tjarutja Lands, adjacent to the Wilkinson Lakes. To...

AIM: In early 1993 a geophysical review of the Crankshaft 1 drilling outcome was performed, using a synthetic seismogram plus wireline log and seismic data to explain the structural invalidity. It appears that what was believed pre-drilling to be a...

AIM: To complete a roughly 1 km-spaced, semi-detailed reflection seismic grid across an area of interest in the north of PEL 52, 3 new infill lines totalling 21.4 line km were acquired in the 1991 Mount Bruce Seismic Survey. Together with the...

AIM: The Mount Hope Seismic Survey main objective was to obtain additional detail of, and mature for drilling in 1992, two leads confirmed by the 1990 Hatherleigh Seismic Survey. The Mount Hope lead on the SE flank of the Beachport High required more...

AIM: To acquire 18 line kms of detail seismic to firm up a drilling prospect, to satisfy the carried-over part of the PEL 38 Year 1 licence work commitment. In actuality this survey was not carried out: instead the licensees elected in April 1991 to...

Maralinga is located on the crest of the Ooldea Range, an ancient (Tertiary) coastal dune which is bounded to the south by the Nullarbor Plain and to the north by Tietkens Plain. The dune field of the Great Victoria Desert covers much of the region...

This report has been compiled at the request of the Redcliff Steering Committee to assist in the preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement. It relies almost entirely on work carried out by Departmental officers and private consultants during...

With a view to conserving supplies of stone and developing them in the best interests of the State, a review has been made of the resources in the Adelaide metropolitan area. In this report recommendations are made for the introduction of legislation...

Burra, discovered in 1845, was Australia's first great mine, and at the time was one of the largest and richest in the world, producing nearly 5% of the total world output of copper. Today the mine is still famous for the beautiful specimens of...

History of the town and mine and main points of interest along the Burra heritage and walking trails.

12 holes were drilled from 6 to 103 feet, 10 indicated shelly sands overlying limestones, calcareous silts, clays and clayey soils, of the Glanville Formation and the Hindmarsh Clay. 2 indicated necessity of blasting to dredge a channel between Boston...

In view of the occurrence of groundwater at shallow depth in the South-East, development of irrigated pastures and growing of vegetables has increased the demand for groundwater considerably over the last few years. The capacity of the Tertiary and...

Mineral deposits differ from other primary resources in that their location and relative abundance is fixed by geological events of the past. They are also non-renewable and new deposits are continually required to satisfy the needs of the community....
