Facies variations in the Woocalla Formation and their relation to base metal mineralization.
Metal sulphides occurring in dolomitic mud and silt facies (Sweet Nell type deposits) were probably deposited in a supratidal environment, where the dolomitic shale facies with Cu mineralization probably originated closer inshore, while Pb, Zn...-

Results of August, 1974 drilling at the MG14 target, EL 81, Mount Gunson.
14 cored holes have intersected copper mineralization in shaley facies of the Woocalla Dolomite, and extending up into dark claystone at the base of the Whyalla Sandstone. The mineralised rocks occupy a shallow depression in the post-Pandurra erosion...-
