Continuing exploration undertaken by Electrolytic Zinc Co. (E-Z), looking for possible economic primary stratabound lead-zinc sulphide deposits in the Heysen Range area, was focused on evaluating a newly discovered occurrence of...

SMLs 576 and 583 over portions of the Heysen Range were taken up to allow follow-up studies of areas of interest outlined during reconnaisance geochemical exploration of former SML 302, the targets being possible Beltana type stratabound base metal...

SML 113 covering about 1000 square km of Upper Proterozoic and Lower Cambrian sediments, and scattered masses of intrusive diapir, was taken out in the vicinity of Beltana to explore for copper deposits analogous to those found by SA Department of...

An area situated adjacent to the recently defined Andamooka Opalfield, and located about 20 miles north of Andamooka township centre, has been explored for possible economic occurrences of opal or base metals within Cretaceous and Precambrian strata...

As part of a search for possible economic sedimentary uranium mineralisation in the vicinity of Ifould Lake, an airborne radiometric survey of 700 line miles was flown at 2 mile line spacings, and 13 rotary holes with a total penetration of 464.8 m...

As part of a continued search for possible Proterozoic - Cainozoic unconformity - related, concealed sedimentary uranium deposits in an area of the Eucla Basin located 60 km north of Fowlers Bay, Pechiney conducted geological reconnaissance, ground...

An area surrounding Beltana in the Flinders Ranges, which is known to contain low level base metal mineralised Adelaidean and Cambrian sedimentary rocks and diapiric intrusive structures, has been prospected by a combination of photogeological studies...

A geological reconnaissance and geochemical re-sampling were carried out in the Mooroowie mine area to follow up minor Cu-Zn mineralisation found in earlier regional sampling work done by Electrolytic Zinc Co. The target was large tonnage, low grade,...

Extensive geochemical and geological investigations were carried out over exposed and shallowly buried, predominantly flat-lying Lower Cambrian carbonate rocks in an area extending from the western edge of the Flinders Ranges to west of Lake Torrens....

10 reverse circulation holes were drilled, totalling 311 m. Surface radiometric effects were attributed to groundwater Ra and/or Rn, or to evaporitic concentrations of uranium daughter products. Results from drilling and from track etch (alpha)...

A licence area located 20 km west-southwest of Port Lincoln, which covers the historically worked Uley graphite deposit and environs, was taken up to try to delineate sufficient mineral resources and, eventually, ore reserves of graphite in the Mining...

EL 3961 lying 10 km north-west of Quorn forms part of the Hawker Project tenement package within the Adelaide Fold Belt that is being explored for sediment-hosted copper deposits. Licensee Copper Range has been looking for bleached, altered sandstone...

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...

Assessment of the economic potential of a historically worked manganese mineral occurrence located just north of Mount Boothby, near Coonalpyn, initially comprised a field inspection of two remnant infilled costeans during October 2009, plus the...

Landmark Stone Pty Ltd was approached by David West (Executive Director, Architectural Conservation, International Conservation Services of Sydney) to investigate re-opening one of the three Waikerie Limestone quarries in the Riverland of South...

Investigation of several old abandoned limestone quarries in the Kongorong area, situated about 20 km south-west of Mount Gambier, was able to identify only one with uncontaminated, flint-free rock suitable for processing for agricultural or...

A portion of the central Flinders Ranges covering the Beltana Diapir and its surrounds has been taken up mainly to explore for possible economic buried hydrothermal replacement type or epigenetic stratabound base metal mineralisation, with magnesite...

This report presents detailed industry-derived statistics on the State's output and sales values of earth resource commodities realised during the six month period ended 30 June 2008, and compares the data with that returned for the previous six...
