Following the detection in late 1997, by reconnaissance mobile metal ion partial leach analytical methods, of anomalous base and precious metal concentrations in the soil above several low amplitude magnetic anomalies on Tasman Resources' EL 2340, the...

Exploration for opal, carried out in an area of the Stuart Range located approximately 130 km north-northwest of Coober Pedy, has included a compilation of geological and opal occurrence data, photogeological interpretation of aerial photographs,...

This report presents a description of the hydrogeology of the Wintinna coal deposit proposed mine site area, and of the investigative work performed to acquire specific data on aquifer properties and groundwater behaviour. Two production bores were...

A basinal region located in the vicinity of Marla and extending for approximately 75 km to the north north-east, that borders the Musgrave Province, has been explored by farminee Eromanga Uranium under a joint venture agreement with licensee Maximus...

As part of a search for possible high crustal level, Olympic Dam - type IOCG deposits hosted by Mesoproterozoic basement rocks, Eromanga Uranium undertook deep diamond drill testing of two large, semi-coincident magnetic/gravity anomalies recognised...

In a search for postulated Tertiary heavy mineral sands marine placer deposits that may have been formed outside of the presently known north-eastern extent of such age sedimentary basins (i.e. along a proto Eucla Basin coastline existing within the...

A small area of opal workings examined near Ouldburra Hill, 35 km south-east of Marla, was thought to indicate local potential for finding and developing larger scale deposits. Research and review of available historic data showed that the area holds...

Limited percussion drilling (2 holes, total 446 m) of inferred dipolar aeromagnetic anomalies in the vicinity of Ross Creek, 140 km north-east of Marla, and subsequent mineralogical examination of heavy mineral concentrates obtained from the drilled...

An initial investigation programme aimed at obtaining hydraulic data from part of the Lake Phillipson Permian coal field been successfully completed. The initial area under consideration for mining is of approximately 130 hectares within the Western...

The Abminga Diamond Project, undertaken by Caldera Resources NL, was granted exploration project status, including permission for EL joint reporting, in July 1996. This event followed up to two years of work by other operators on a number of...

In a search for possible economic roll-front, blanket style uranium deposits within Tertiary sediments in part of the eastern Frome Embayment, the licensee undertook 1:75,000 scale geological mapping and exploratory auger drilling of the Quaternary...

Exploration drilling by Utah Development Co. during 1973 and 1974 in the area covered by EL 125 has outlined at least 2,000 million tonnes of medium quality steaming coal, of a quality considered to be comparable to that for coal from ETSA's Leigh...

The Lake Phillipson coal deposits currently under consideration by Utah Development Company as a potential mine, are located in a remote and arid region of Australia. Surface water sources simply do not exist in this area and any development will...

Results of a programme of laboratory scale testwork conducted to investigate fresh water leaching of epsomite ore originating from Coober Pedy in South Australia are as follows: 1). The ore when leached readily producing brines of uniform...

A small area centred ~130 km north of Marla, and abutting the Northern Territory border along the northern side of Tieyon Station, has been explored for possible economic buried secondary uranium deposits, which Tianda Uranium (Tianda) thought could...

A large, 3370 square km area of the Strzelecki Desert lying over and to the south-east of Lake Callabonna, and extending as far as the SA-NSW State Border, is being explored for possible economic buried sedimentary uranium mineralisation thought to...

A large area situated on the north-eastern side of the Stuart Range, comprising three separate sub-blocks that taken together are centred ~20 km north of Coober Pedy township, has been explored for possible economic near-surface accumulations of the...

This poster was exhibited to accompany a talk presented by the authors at the 1st Eromanga Basin Symposium, Adelaide, 9-11 November 1982 (the talk abstract is indexed separately).

An area located immediately east and north-east of Coober Pedy is being explored for possible economic near-surface accumulations of the evaporite industrial mineral epsomite. Historic drilling and costeaning in this area performed by CRA Exploration...

A significant portion of the Arckaringa Basin acreage held by Meekatharra Minerals, that was subjected to greenfields coal exploration between 1980 and 1986, has now been relinquished. Relevant exploration work, for which the basic data is being...
