Diamond exploration which was undertaken across practically the whole of Kangaroo Island, barring national and conservation parks and reserves, sought to test the potential of the island to contain kimberlite pipes and / or associated rock types, and...

Possible gold, base metals and platinum group element targets lying within, or spatially associated with, Delamerian ultramafic intrusive rocks occurring over an area of the Kanmantoo Trough between Mannum and Morgan, were sought for by conducting...

The Marne River is a main tributary catchment for the River Murray, which generates ephemeral flows in wet years. Concerns have been expressed at the construction of large dams in the headwaters of the catchment, about their impacts on streamflow,...

The Kanmantoo Trough is an arcuate zone of metamorphosed and deformed Cambrian rocks of the Stansbury Basin that crop out along the eastern Mount Lofty Ranges, through Fleurieu Peninsula, and extend to Kangaroo Island in the south. Related Cambrian...

Possible Cambrian sedex style base metal mineralisation within sulphide-rich units of the Talisker Calc-siltstone and Tapanappa Formation of the Kanmantoo Group was the conceptual target of exploration in the Tunkalilla Beach area of the southern...

In 2021-22, the Geological Survey of South Australia undertook a regional drilling program in southeast of South Australia targeting the Delamerian Orogen and overlying Murray Basin. The project was funded through the MinEx CRC National Drilling...

Exploration of the Strathalbyn - Macclesfield area was attempted by Bridge Minerals because it appeared to contain lithologic units, structures and alteration styles similar to those controlling Broken Hill South's recently defined Kanmantoo deposit...

Previous investigations of the Late Tertiary Murray Basin shallow marine littoral zone clastic sedimentary sequence (Loxton and Parilla sands) for heavy mineral sand (HM) placer accumulations have discovered numerous occurrences of economic to...

An assessment of the Late Tertiary Murray Basin shallow marine clastic sedimentary sequence (Loxton and Parilla sands) for heavy mineral sand accumulations has discovered numerous occurrences of economic to sub-economic amounts of heavy minerals...

An area covering 24 square km of private land situated approximately 10 km east of Truro township was taken up by Asarco under a number of privately negotiated option agreements to acquire the relevant mineral rights, should an economic base/precious...

Possible economic Mississippi Valley or Irish Midlands type, stratabound hydrothermal Pb-Zn mineralisation was the target of a regional appraisal of Lower Cambrian carbonate rocks on the western Fleurieu Peninsula. Initially, the licensee performed a...

The purpose of this interpretation is to provide an initial framework for the basement to the Murray Basin upon which to plan the Geological Survey of South Australia’s MinEx CRC National Drilling Initiative drilling project targeting the Delamerian...

As part of the evaluation of a known occurrence of possibly pegmatite-related, kaolinised Cambrian talcose sandstone in the Mount Crawford area, located about 35 miles north-east of Adelaide, 74 scout auger drillholes were sunk, 25 separated clay...

BHP have provided SADME with unpublished data on the inoperative Brukunga pyrite mine. This report is an inventory of these data, providing access to the mine development plans and analytical data on two diamond drill holes.

Available open file stream sediment geochemical, airborne magnetic survey and prospect drilling data were compiled for the Palmer - Keyneton area, 60 km north-east of Adelaide. After reviewing the compiled data, Aberfoyle concluded that the...

This study has identified a model for syn-diagenetic base metal mineralisation in the Talisker Calc-siltstone. The sandstone - hosted stratiform mineralisation is dominantly lead-zinc in nature, and occurs within incised valley fills. The geological...

The Kitticoola - North Rhine area, which borders the Ordovician Palmer Granite intrusion, has been explored for possible economic buried gold and base metals mineralisation by carrying out limited BLEG stream sediment sampling and by taking rock chip...
