Four tenements, which all lie within a 60 km radius to the north of the township of Kimba, and are mostly located around Lake Gilles, are continuing to be explored by grant licensee Lincoln Minerals Ltd (LML) and its joint venture partner IronClad...

The area of ELs 1841/2551 (formerly EL 1568), located approximately 70 km north-west of Kimba on the northern Eyre Peninsula, was considered to be prospective for Olympic Dam type Cu-Au and Menninnie Dam style Pb-Zn mineralisation. Earlier work by...

Menninnie Dam - style Pb-Zn mineralisation in areas north and east of Lake Gilles was the initial target of exploration. A ground magnetic survey conducted along five lines was followed by shallow auger drilling (302 holes, total 1099 m) plus lag,...

Approximately one-third of the southernmost sub-block 'D' of the subject EL 5109 has been relinquished to comply with expenditure commitments made for the East Eyre Peninsula Project. Activities within the now relinquished area have consisted of...

EL 4860 has been part of the Investigator Resources Ltd tenement holding since that company was spun-off from Southern Gold in 2007 (as Sunthe Uranium Ltd). The Eastern Eyre Peninsula project group of licences, which lie along and just beyond the...

A consultant geologist's reports prepared in 1970 for by mining lease optionholder Murumba Minerals NL describe his detailed mapping of the then known jade (nephrite) deposits within the Cowell Jade Province. Two potentially mineable deposits were...

As part of a regional evaluation of the variably exposed Lower Proterozoic metasedimentary sequence on eastern Eyre Peninsula for possible economic pitchblende mineralisation, portion of a semi-detailed airborne radiometric/magnetic survey was flown...

Extensive geophysical prospecting, an 8 hole percussion drill coring programme (477 m) and a 140 hole RAB drilling programme (1798 m) at the Lady Franklin prospect were not encouraging. Percussion drillhole 83WP2 intersected a zone of primary but...

A small area originally comprising three separate parts centred ~20 km north of Kimba on northern Eyre Peninsula has been explored for possible economic Middleback Range type stratabound BIF hosted iron ore, for shear-hosted or Menninnie Dam style...

TARGET: Lead-zinc-silver mineralisation of the Broken Hill or Aggeneys-Gamsberg type, associated with banded iron formations in Early Proterozoic metasediments; in addition, possible tin, tungsten or base metal-bearing skarns produced by hydrothermal...

TARGET: Stratiform lead-zinc-silver mineralisation of the Broken Hill or Aggeneys - Gamsberg type, associated with banded iron formations in Early Proterozoic metasediments. EXPLORATION: Data from the 1975 joint SADME / BMR Barna 1:100 000 scale...

A collection of Amdel petrographic reports providing raw data for a petrogenetic study of Cowell area jade specimens and related host rocks carried out by SADME, aimed at determining geological controls on the distribution of high quality nephrite...

Possible exhalative sulphide orebodies of the Broken Hill - Aggeneys type, associated with Lower Proterozoic banded iron formations that are known to be Pb-Cu anomalous in the Cleve area (Campoona Syncline) 35 km to the south-east, were the prime...

Exploration for gold in the banded iron formations of the Hutchison Group, conducted in the Tumby Bay area and west of Arno Bay on Eyre Peninsula, comprised a regional BLEG stream geochemical survey and follow-up stream, soil and rock chip sampling....

Exploration in the Wanilla - Cummins area searching for economic accumulations of heavy minerals in Eocene sands comprised 2 phases of aircore drilling (167 holes, total 4049 m). A resulting drill intersection yielded a 0.72% heavy-mineral...

TARGET: Possible commercial Menninnie Dam type stratabound or stratiform base metal deposits in the Cowell - Kimba - Buckleboo region. EXPLORATION: Field reconnaissance and rock chip geochemical sampling of prospective areas identified from...

TARGET: Epithermal and unconformity - type uranium in Archaean to Early Proterozoic rocks of the southern Gawler Craton. EXPLORATION: - an aerial magnetic and radioactivity survey flown at 800 m, 1600 m and 400m spacing by Austirex in November 1979;...

TARGET: Possible stratiform Pb-Zn-Ag mineralisation of the Broken Hill or Aggeneys-Gamsberg type associated with banded iron formations in Early Proterozoic metasediments. EXPLORATION: Regional ground magnetic surveys, geological mapping, 29 RAB...

TARGET: Unconformity related, vein-like and vein-type uranium in the Cleve Metamorphics, Katunga Dolomite and Mangalo Schist; lead-zinc sulphides of Broken Hill or Balmat-Edwards type in the Hutchison Group. EXPLORATION: Uranium exploration...

Numerous Pb-Zn-Cu-Ag mines and prospects, including the promising Menninnie Dam prospect located 80 km north of Kimba, occur within graphitic, calcareous and psammo-pelitic metasediments of the Palaeoproterozoic (ca 1900-1850 Ma) Hutchison Group on...
