Exploration of three small licence subareas located near Cleve, Rudall and Verran has targeted possible Palaeoproterozoic stratiform or hydrothermal base and precious metal deposits hosted within Hutchison Group metasediments. Interpretation of 1979...

EL 2888 was applied for to cover prospective magnetic anomalies thought to be underlain by magnetite-rich banded iron formations (BIF), that exist close to Cowell on the eastern Eyre Peninsula. One geological interpretation of the magnetic anomalism...

Investigation of some isolated coarse-grained jaspilite outcrops and likely intervening subcrop, in an area 12 miles west of Iron Baron near the Middleback Range, sought to identify a currently economic iron ore resource of more than 60 Mt existing...

A total of 3074 square km or ~86.25% of the originally granted area of EL 266 which borders the north-western side of Spencer Gulf has recently been relinquished by BHP after one year of work, due to its now perceived diminished prospectivity for...

Dampier Mining Company took out EL 512 around Iron Chieftain to assess the significance of apparently stratabound low-grade gold values obtained from previous surface sampling and drilling within carbonate and sulphide - rich quartzites at the base of...

This report describes the results of a MESA consultant's second generation regional geological mapping and drillhole data interpretation work for the Roopena and Uno 1:100 000 sheets on PORT AUGUSTA, performed during 1993 and 1994 as part of the SAEI...

During the period 11 June 2018 to 6 August 2018, approximately 60% of the PORT AUGUSTA 1:250k map sheet area, that covers the far north-eastern portion of the Eyre Peninsula, was flown under contract to the SA Government and Geoscience Australia as...

As part of a regional programme evaluating the potential of the Eyre Peninsula for economic stratabound base metal deposits, an area of relatively good outcrop lying north-west and west of Cowell was explored by 1:20,000 scale geological mapping, rock...

A 5550 line mile semi-detailed airborne geophysical survey was conducted for BHP in the north Middleback Range - Whyalla area by contractor Geophysical Resources Development Co. during July-August 1969. East-west lines spaced 1/4 mile apart were...

In July and August 1969 a ground radiometric survey of readings taken at 25 foot intervals on a 100 foot grid was conducted on the eastern flanks of the Iron Prince massif, with the aim of further investigating 3 radioactive anomalies discovered there...

Ground scintillometer work carried out by BHP over its SMLs in the Middleback Range area has been shown not to be an effective reconnaissance tool for finding uranium anomalies, but it does have demonstrated value for identifying sources of...

This document presents an interpreted structural setting for the unusual enriched occurrence of iron formation in the Stony Hill area, based on photogeological and drillhole data observations of macroscopic and mesoscopic structural factors.

Exploration of an area lying west of Lake Gilles concentrated initially on assessing its potential for hosting syngenetic Palaeoproterozoic stratiform base metal deposits along perceived stratigraphic extensions of the beds containing the recently...

Project Connelly is designed to target haematite mineralisation on OneSteel's mining and exploration leases, including EL 3516 Middleback Range, with the aim of adding to the haematite reserve. In addition to the exploration programme, reserve...

A sparsely drill-tested area centred about 10 km west of Lake Gilles is being explored for a variety of buried, possibly economic basement-hosted polymetallic mineralisation occurrences, including deposits of Menninnie Dam style Pb-Zn-Ag (Cu-Au),...

Two small areas have been taken up in the Cleve Uplands district to explore structurally interesting portions of the Lower and Upper Middleback Jaspilite stratigraphic units for possible economic buried copper, gold, manganese and iron ore...

Part of the Cleve Uplands centred 15 km west of Cleve has been taken under licence to explore its potential for buried economic copper-gold mineralisation to occur within Archaean or Proterozoic basement rocks. Other possible commodities of interest...

Exploration for Broken Hill / Menninnie Dam type Pb-Zn, and later for iron oxide - associated Cu-Au, that was undertaken over an area located north of Kimba within and adjacent to the Pinkawillinie Conservation Park, comprised the acquisition during...

Exploration for possible intrusive igneous sources of diamonds and for possible Broken Hill type economic stratabound Early Proterozoic base metal deposits in the Mount Bosanquet area, 30 km south of Kimba, has comprised digital image processing and...

During February-July 2005, a PACE Initiative collaborative drilling programme with PIRSA was prepared and undertaken by Terramin Australia at the Menninnie Dam prospect to investigate two objectives: · The B1 cerussite target identified by drilling...
