As part of an ongoing search for possible buried economic roll-front or sandstone type Tertiary sedimentary uranium deposits in an area 70 km east of Lake Frome, a detailed stratigraphic and sedimentological analysis was undertaken of rotary drillhole...

Fourteen rotary holes were drilled totalling 1362 metres. Coal was intersected as thin stringers in the Cretaceous Cadna-owie Formation in MU-3 and MU-13, and as a 1 metre thick seam in the Permian Mount Toondina Formation in MU-2, but is not...

Ongoing base metal exploration in the Cleve district of eastern Eyre Peninsula has comprised detailed regional mapping, extensive geochemical and petrological sampling, and percussion drilling of selected geochemical anomalies. Assay results indicate...

Possible economic buried Tertiary sedimentary uranium, plus any Palaeoproterozoic basement - hosted base metal deposits, were targeted in the region to the west of Cockburn by conducting an airborne radiometric survey (700 line miles at 0.5-1 mile...

Consultants were engaged by the licensee to conduct an extensive geological and geochemical investigation of a 2700 square mile area surrounding the Mount Gunson copper deposit, and to perform an interpretation of available regional aeromagnetic data....

The near-surface base and precious metal potential of several possibly gossanous ironstone outcrops, that exist within a north-east trending broad domal structure in the Umberatana Group extending for 5-15 miles east of Yunta, were tested by limited...

Orientation geochemical sampling, and 1:25,000 scale geological mapping that included long sectional mapping of four railway cutting bedrock exposures in the Eudunda area, revealed pervasive low grade stratiform copper mineralisation in Sturtian...

An investigation of seven interesting IP anomalies on the Oraparinna Dome, which had been delineated in 1966 by Metals Exploration but not then tested by that company, has lately comprised anomaly gridding, 1:1200 scale geological mapping, and...

Detailed ground checking of radiometric anomalies recovered from a semi-regional aerial geophysical survey flown in August 1969 over the Plumbago area, plotted down to a scale of 1:25,000, did not disclose any significant radioactive mineral deposits...

12 selected drill core specimens were analysed.

Continued evaluation of the Balcanoona anticlinal structure as a potential host to economic copper sulphide deposits has focussed on the eastern side limb, where similar metalliferous gossans exists as those which have been explored previously on the...

In a search for possible economic stratiform copper occurrences in Upper Proterozoic sediments of the Willouran Ranges, the licensee undertook photogeological and field mapping studies plus a regional geochemical survey of outcropping rocks and...

An area of 117 square miles surrounding Carrieton Railway Siding was prospected for possible economic diapir-related base and precious metals hosted within bounding Adelaidean strata. A comprehensive regional stream sediment survey was conducted...

Exploration for possible economic stratabound/stratiform copper, zinc and vanadium mineralisation occurring within a large area located south-west of Marree has consisted of geological field mapping and regional stream sediment sampling (3470...

Report describes a ground magnetic survey of the recently discovered Kyancutta area iron ore prospects nos 1A-1B and 2, and presents contour maps of their measured vertical magnetic intensity, with qualitative estimates given of the magnetic source...

Early-stage exploration of the State's South-East coastal region for possible economic heavy mineral sand placer deposits in ancient raised beaches has comprised an assessment of favourable geology, historical depositional conditions and...

A drilling programme has been carried out under tenure of a mineral exploration licence by the PEL 6 Patchawarra Farm-out Block partners, to investigate the origin of a 400 API unit radioactivity gamma-ray log kick noticed to occur at 47.12 m below...

In a search for possible buried sedimentary uranium mineralisation which may have been precipitated adjacent to the northern margin of the Murray Basin in SA, following long term palaeodrainage transport of the dissolved weathering products of primary...
