This report outlines the history and concept of the Torrens Hinge Zone project. An account is given of the regional geology, geophysics, geochronology and stratigraphic drilling in the Bute region and adjoining areas of northern Yorke Peninsula. An...

To aid in the correlation of deep refractors in the Frome Embayment, a series of eight seismic refraction velocities were determined on the Proterozoic and Palaeozoic outcropping sections in the Blinman-Wirrealpa area of the Flinders Ranges. The...

Rocks belonging to the upper part of the Adelaide System and the overlying Cambrian, outcrop in the eastern part of the Beltana area in the Nuccaleena Dome, and form the basement underlying the more recent sediments to the west. In the central and...

A review of previous exploration data for the subject licence area, located 40 km north-west of Hawker, has focussed on zinc. Previous stream sediment sample assay results were digitised, and a structural review of the region (including other Copper...

In late 2011, regional scale satellite recorded Aster multispectral data was purchased to cover the entirety of Perilya’s northern Flinders Ranges Project acreage. The data acquired was intended to be used to locate areas of potentially unmapped...

An area located approximately 40 km north-west of Hawker in the southern Flinders Ranges has been explored by Copper Range as part of a regional programme being conducted in the central Adelaide Geosyncline, which is targeting large alteration zones...

Olympic Dam style copper-gold mineralisation was the target of exploration in two adjoining areas which lie about 100 km north-northeast of Port Augusta and 55 km west of Hawker, on alluvial plains adjacent to south-eastern Lake Torrens. All of the...

Surveys recently conducted in England, Ireland and Australia have shown that there are major spatial variations in the 'light' [molecular weight] hydrocarbon gas content of rocks which are closely related to the presence of underlying mineralisation....

The MARREE mapsheet area includes the south-western portion of the Strzelecki Desert plus parts of the Tirari Desert, north-western Flinders Ranges and north-eastern Willouran Ranges, between latitudes 29 to 30 degrees S and longitudes 138 to 139...

A review of existing mineral exploration data pertaining to an area located 50 km north-east of Blinman indicated that geochemical copper anomalism is associated with the Mount Roebuck Fault and the Pinda Diapir. The potential for finding supergene...

Interpretation of magnetic and gravity data, together with calcrete and MMI sampling, were carried out adjacent to a southerly extension of the Ediacara Fault, 25 km north-west of Parachilna. Low order Pb-Zn-Ag anomalism was located, coincident with...

Follow-up geological investigations to stream sediment and soil base metal anomalies earlier disclosed in the Ten Mile Creek area have concluded that the mineralised sources found for the two broadest lead and zinc anomalous zones do not indicate the...

Reconnaissance geochemical exploration for possible economic stratiform copper deposits hosted by Adelaidean and Lower Cambrian sediments in an area of the northern Flinders Ranges located east of Blinman has consisted of aerial surveys,...

Exploration for possible economic stratabound phosphate mineralisation within Cambrian sediments of the northern Flinders Ranges comprised 51 miles of stratigraphic traversing, the field testing of every bed with indicator reagents able to reveal...

In a continuation of the evaluation of the Mucatoona copper prospect, assaying of RAB drill cuttings samples returned no metal values of note. Mineragraphic studies of the primary copper mineralisation occurring in the Adelaidean black shale facies...

Soil geochemical sampling (940 samples) carried out on a 1000 foot by 1500 foot grid pattern over the Arkaba Diapir, aiming to check for possible economic zinc mineralisation that may have formed within the diapiric breccias and related fracture zones...

A geological and geochemical appraisal made of various mines and prospects in the Beltana area has sugggested that only those situated nearest the Nuccaleena Diapir are the most likely to yield drilling success in the search for significant extensions...
