Ten glacial megaclasts, unique perhaps from a global perspective, have been identified in the half-graben rift of the MacDonald Corridor. The MacDonald Corridor is the most easterly of four half-grabens containing Neoproterozoic low-grade...

Includes an outline of the Adelaidean stratigraphy, and the underlying igneous and metamorphic rock types, and brief, mainly historical review of the economic geology.

Adelaidean and younger rocks of the Yunta, Winnininnie, Oakvale, Mutooroo, Ballara, Wadnaminga, Olary and Manunda one mile areas are summarised.

The Pualco Range is 45km south-south east of Yunta, South Australia, and contains 3300m of a formation (?Appila Tillite, Precambrian, Adelaidean) characterised by massive tillite with quartzite beds. This forms the base of the Umberatana Group and...

A large area located immediately south and south-west of Olary has been explored initially for possible economic buried primary epithermal to mesothermal copper-gold and gold only mineralisation that might have formed in Adelaidean and older bedrock,...

The banded iron formations associated with various tillite in South Australia have been recognised as being potential sources for iron however the low-grade nature of these bands has been one of the limiting factors in why they have not been...

This field guidebook provides brief geological summaries to sites in South Australia that were visited during the 2006 Broken Hill Exploration Initiative pre-conference excursion. Figures show the location of the field area and approximate location of...

Former sheep station ‘Bimbowrie’, situated in the Olary Ranges, South Australia, was purchased by the South Australian Government as a conservation park in 2004. It has had a long history of mining, mineral exploration and geoscientific investigation....

As part of exploration for sheeted vein, stratabound Telfer style and banded iron formation hosted Homestake style gold and base metal deposits in metasediments of Adelaidean age, a programme of soil auger drilling and calcrete sampling conducted 20...

The purpose of this interpretation is to provide an initial framework for the basement to the Murray Basin upon which to plan the Geological Survey of South Australia’s MinEx CRC National Drilling Initiative drilling project targeting the Delamerian...

Ongoing exploratory RAB bedrock drilling of 302 shallow holes totalling 1919 m, over an area located approximately 40 km south-east of Olary, has shown that the Pegline Dam prospect is not base metal mineralised, and that the source of an IP anomaly...

Gold and base metal exploration near Anabama Hill comprised an interpretation of open file aeromagnetic survey data, and follow-up ground geological reconnaissance. Although the area was found to be prospective for concealed bedrock mineralisation, it...
