An area centred ~30 km north of Winnininnie is being explored for possible buried primary hydrothermal gold deposits within Neoproterozoic bedrock, as part of a broader search for same in a region which has significant surficial gold deposits which...

Two adjacent licences together covering a large area located to the south of the Barrier Highway between Olary and Manna Hill are being explored for possible large tonnage, mainly buried low grade magnetite deposits that could have formed within the...

Exploration for possible economic sandstone-hosted copper-lead-zinc mineralisation, carried out over a small area centred ~90 km south-east of Leigh Creek, consisted only of making field reconnaissance traverses accompanied by 1:50K scale geological...

Exploration licence 5899 was granted to Datong Gold Mining Pty Ltd on 12 December 2016. The tenement sits approximately 21 km north of the township of Leigh Creek. The tenement lies in the northern part of the Adelaide Geosyncline and has the...

Exploration aimed at alluvial gold in Cainozoic sediments derived from Umberatana Group, as opposed to previous exploration for reef gold. No encouraging assay results from 154 samples or from ground inspection and quartz vein samples in Umberatana...

No significant trace metal assay values were returned by bulk leaching of 43 drainage samples taken during exploration for possible large tonnage, low grade stratabound gold deposits associated with clastic sediments of the Neoproterozoic Umberatana...

52 square km or ~24.9% of the former area of EL 5585 has been relinquished.

Economic Olympic Dam style iron oxide - associated copper-gold (IOCG) mineralisation has been the target of exploration carried out in three adjoining areas which together extend for about 55 to 170 km north of Port Augusta, covering southern Lake...

Exploration undertaken to search for Telfer - style Proterozoic stratabound gold, within a large area extending to the north and north-west of Manna Hill township, included an aerial photographic survey of known occurrences, and helicopter-assisted...

Continuing exploration for possible hydrothermal or epithermal base metal and precious metal deposits, within an area centred 60 km south-west of Olary, at the outset targeted some previously identified geochemical anomalies, principally via shallow...

Evaluation of the potential of the Nillinghoo Goldfield district to hold Telfer - type low grade, shallowly dipping stratabound gold deposits suitable for open pit extraction has included aerial photograph, Landsat and regional magnetic data...

Exploration for possible stratabound gold has included detailed geological mapping, at 1:20,000 scale, which was focussed on the Tapley Hill Formation - Tarcowie Siltstone stratigraphic contact. An attempt was made to identify the bedrock source of...

TARGET: Diamonds, gold and copper in the Mount Roebuck area. EXPLORATION: Drainage, loam and rock chip sampling, ground magnetic, radiometric and IP surveys, and diamond drilling (4 holes totalling 739 m). RESULTS: A single, 0.5 mm x 0.4 mm diameter...

TARGET: Diamonds in the Cradock - Carrieton region. EXPLORATION: Regional and follow-up stream sediment and gridded loam sampling, heavy mineral processing and SEM microscopy of bulk samples, grid-based ground magnetic surveys, and part of a regional...

TARGET: Possible Starra (Nth Qld) - type gold deposits associated with regional scale structures and associated intrusive rocks in the Anabama Hill region. EXPLORATION: Photogeology studies, reconnaissance BLEG stream sediment (44) and rock chip (16)...

TARGET: Possible economic, open-pit mineable stratiform low grade gold and copper deposits within Adelaidean units of the Nackara Arc, in an area lying west of and including Yunta. EXPLORATION: A detailed geological field reconnaissance, review of...

TARGET: Possible concealed, saddle-reef type lode developments of inferred Telfer-style gold deposits at the Manna Hill Goldfield. EXPLORATION: Reconnaissance inspection of old mine workings, rock chip sampling (79), and shallow RAB bedrock drilling...

9 rock chip, mine dump, tailings, and hand auger alluvium samples were collected from abandoned gold workings. No significant assays were returned, and the area has limited potential for either bedrock or alluvial gold.

TARGET: Buried epithermal/hydrothermal gold and copper mineralisation in the Bendigo Station area, possibly associated with diapric intrusions. EXPLORATION: Reconnaissance geological traversing and rock chip (74) and stream sediment (23) geochemical...

New work undertaken on EL 4187 during the 2009-2010 licence year has included: • Ongoing documentation and interpretation of MGD 55 & 56 • Drilling of MGD57 to 1243 m at Emmie Bluff prospect • Down hole EM and IP logging of MGD57 •...
