A total of 6 test pits and 4 hand auger holes were constructed to extend and delineate the known reserves of seed gypsum at Parcoola, located approximately 40 km north-northeast of Waikerie, and to explore for possible further reserves of higher grade...

In a search for possible Olympic Dam style mineralisation or for cumulate-hosted base and precious metals within an inferred buried caldera collapse structure, 20 km north of Ceduna, five high amplitude aero magnetic anomalies thought to correspond to...

Diamond exploration in the Bon Bon - Millers Creek region, about 80 km north-northeast of Kingoonya, included Landsat imagery and photogeological studies plus extensive reconnaissance soil and stream sediment sampling. No kimberlitic indicator...

Economic stratabound Mississippi Valley-type zinc-lead-silver deposits in Early Cambrian carbonate rocks were the targets of exploration carried out north and west of Reaphook Hill in the central Flinders Ranges. Regional geological mapping (at...

TARGET: Gold which could had been emplaced in sheared and altered zones present within the intrusions and on the contacts of the Hiltaba Suite Granite and Muckanippie Diorite. EXPLORATION: Reprocessing of historic aerial magnetic survey data, making...

TARGET: Heavy mineral sands in Parilla Sand north of Bordertown which are blanketed by thick aeolian sand. EXPLORATION: Aerial photo interpretation and geomorphic mapping to identify prospective areas.

During the fifteenth and sixteenth quarters of tenure of EL 1165, exploration for possible Olympic Dam style basement-hosted base and precious metals in the Giddi Giddinna Creek area, 20 km north-east of Coober Pedy, comprised making an aerial...

Possible economic gold and stratiform / stratabound base metal sulphide deposits, that had been surmised to have formed within certain reactive metasedimentary units in folded and faulted Cambrian strata lying between Mount Pleasant and Strathalbyn in...

TARGET: Gold and base metals associated with faulting along the Ooldea Horst. EXPLORATION: Landsat interpretation, sampling of Amoco ORP2 and interpretation of reprocessed BMR 1970 aeromagnetic survey.

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...

Continuing exploration for possible hydrothermal or epithermal base metal and precious metal deposits, within an area centred 60 km south-west of Olary, at the outset targeted some previously identified geochemical anomalies, principally via shallow...

TARGET: Olympic Dam style Cu-Au-U mineralisation lying on a linear gravity feature extending south of Lake Macfarlane, which has associated magnetic discontinuities; unconformity - related sedimentary U at the Pandurra Formation/Gawler Range Volcanics...

Licenceholder Minotaur Exploration has received a grant of ADI Round 1 subsidy funds from DEM to assist it in understanding the Proterozoic basement geology of the Peake and Denison Inliers, with the aim of making a step-change in the modelling of...

Diamond exploration undertaken over an area situated 70 km south-east of Oodnadatta included photogeological studies, the acquisition of a 2400 line km low level aerial magnetic and radiometric survey, and geochemical analyses of 452 reconnaissance...

Intensive geophysical exploration work by Afmeco, over selected airborne magnetic and radiometric survey anomalies within the Proterozoic Glyde Hill Volcanic Complex, aimed to test for possible concealed Olympic Dam - type hydrothermal uranium or...

Evaluation of the potential of the Nillinghoo Goldfield district to hold Telfer - type low grade, shallowly dipping stratabound gold deposits suitable for open pit extraction has included aerial photograph, Landsat and regional magnetic data...

Possible economic Mississippi Valley type lead-zinc deposits formed in Early Cambrian limestones were the targets of exploration carried out 12 km north-east of Blinman. The only work carried out within the licence area was photo-interpretation of the...
