An area centred 60 km north-west of Cowell was considered prospective for iron mineralisation within banded iron formations of the Middleback Subgroup, and for skarn - type gold and base metals associated with Hutchison Group metasediments. Following...

Following on from calcrete sampling in the vicinity of Mangalo, reported earlier (Env. 9583), limited field reconnaissance and collection of rock samples was undertaken over selected subtle geological/geophysical anomalies, that had been identified...

Regional scale interpretation of available data highlighted the presence of a gravity anomaly at the intersection of magnetic lineaments in the Mt Ive Gate area, 60 km north of Kimba, in a region considered to be prospective for iron oxide related...

A mining consultant was engaged by mineral claim option holder Murumba Minerals to assess the commercial potential of a rare (for Australia) grouping of lens style nephrite deposits located about 20 km north of Cowell, which had only been mined on a...

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...

Two separate areas located respectively 20-45 km west-southwest and 70 km south-southwest of Whyalla have been selectively relinquished from EL 2741 in accordance with licence conditions. The ground has potential for Palaeoproterozoic to...

Gold exploration conducted over an area extending for 100 km north-south, commencing from 15 km north-west of Port Lincoln and centred on Cummins township, has consisted only of a structural/stratigraphic interpretation of available aeromagnetic data,...

The Dingo Hill prospect lies within the eastern Gawler Craton, approximately 90 km west of Port Augusta. EL 3579 licensee Hindmarsh Resources is exploring for possible economic secondary stratiform uranium mineralisation associated with regional...

EL 3428, located 17 km south-west of the Olympic Dam deposit and 5 km south of the Acropolis prospect, was taken up by Uranium Exploration Australia (UXA) primarily to explore for copper-uranium-gold-silver-rare earth element (Cu-Au-U-REE+/-Ag)...

Petrophysical properties of rocks are an underutilised data set that is rarely routinely collected. With the recent advances in geophysical modelling there is now an increasing need to collect petrophysical data as a vital link between geophysical...

After Poseidon Exploration took over the management of ELs 1448 and 1465 in November 1991 as a result of a supplementary farm-in agreement made with Burmine, whereby Poseidon would fund the next two year's of exploration to earn Burmine's 50% interest...

An occurrence of massive to gossanous secondary manganese and iron oxides, which is apparently stratabound within Lower Proterozoic graphitic schists and gneiss in an area 8 miles east-northeast of Darke Peake railway siding on Eyre Peninsula, was...

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...

Follow-up rotary/diamond drilling (in 2 holes totalling 603 feet) by a new explorer, which aimed to determine the magnetic source for an elongate, 4000 foot long and 400 gammas peak intensity ground magnetic anomaly mapped as occurring to the west of...

During the past 15 years, a major investigation (553 Rb-Sr and 100 K-Ar analyses) were undertaken to determine the Archaean - Proterozoic stratigraphic, magmatic and tectonic history. The isotopic dates define 3 broad groupings, Sleafordian Orogeny (2...

This report presents the results of a study jointly conducted by the Geological Survey of South Australia and CSIRO Mineral Resources which aimed to enhance the expression of geological structure in geophysical images and to derive depth to magnetic...

The Gawler Province 3D Geological Model is the second product of PIRSA's early 3D modelling trials conducted using 3D GeoModeller software. The work began with identifying the statigraphic units that were to be modelled. Due to the regional scale of...

HyVista Corporation was contracted by Mega Hindmarsh during April-May 2008 to process HyMap airborne hyperspectral scanner data acquired over the Uno Range - Lake Gilles North area of SA on 16/3/1998. The nominal pixel size acquired was 4.7 m x 4.7 m,...

HyVista Corporation was contracted by PIRSA during April 2011 to process HyMap airborne hyperspectral scanner data acquired over the Peterlumbo district in the southern Gawler Ranges region of SA during March 2011. The nominal pixel size acquired was...
