Ongoing exploration for precious and base metals in the Glenloth - Tarcoola area has lately involved extending the reconnaissance geological and geochemical survey grid, both to the west and the east of the original Kenella Rocks area of...

Exploration for possible stratabound copper deposits, over an area 5 miles south-east of Carrieton, consisted of rock chip sampling and field geological mapping at 1:25,000 scale of outcropping folded and brecciated River Wakefield Group sediments,...

Results of a petrological and mineragraphic examination of several suites of mineralised samples, taken from within the lower and upper Callanna Beds around the southern margin of the Mount Painter Province. Interpretive comments are given about the...

Reconnaissance prospecting, plus close inspections and sampling of historically briefly worked auriferous areas in the basal Mesozoic sediments on the banks of the Neales River, suggest that any reserves and grades present there would be insufficient...

Rock chip and stream sediment samples were analysed for U, Th and base metals. In addition, water samples from bores were analysed for U. All assays were low. It was concluded that the Hiltaba Granite has slightly elevated but insignificant levels...

Three, or possibly four, raised beach ridge deposits were located along the coastline of the western Eyre Peninsula region during a reconnaissance survey of potential fossil strandline and foredune trapsites looking for economic heavy mineral sand...

Exploration for possible economic base metal and gold occurrences in the Anabama area has comprised semi-detailed geological mapping at 1:21,600 scale, rock chip sampling (502 samples), regional and infill stream sediment sampling (1034 samples),...

1:25,000 scale geological mapping and scout stratigraphic drilling (9 vertical rotary holes for a total penetration of 758.5 m) have outlined the general distribution of Adelaidean rocks in the Lake Macfarlane and Island Lagoon areas. Perhaps the most...

Exploration included an office investigation of previously reported mining geology, and 1:15,000 scale field mapping of quartz reefs and old gold diggings. Grid-based resampling of a SADM surface arsenic geochemical anomaly, undertaken via 25 x minus...

Prospecting, mapping and rock sampling were completed to assess the potential for Mount Gunson - type stratabound copper occurrences within folded Upper Proterozoic arkosic-calcareous arenites that overlie intermediate-basic volcanic rocks....

Nine areas opened up by trenching were mapped and channel sampling carried out across any exposures exhibiting significant copper mineralization. Results indicate weak spasmodic distribution of copper mineralization which is uneconomic.

In a search for possible remaining economic primary or secondary uranium deposits in an area of known such mineral occurrences located around Mount Victoria, a consultant was engaged by Esso Minerals to conduct detailed 1:12,000 scale geological...

Ongoing exploration for economic buried stratiform copper mineralisation within a small area located 97 km east of Lyndhurst under renewed tenure has consisted of detailed, 1:1000 scale geological mapping and surface geochemical sampling, plus...

In a search for possible buried Ediacara - type Early Palaeozoic sediment-hosted lead-zinc deposits in an area located 10 miles east of Andamooka, near the north-western shoreline of Lake Torrens, exploratory work comprising regional and follow-up...

Reconnaissance stream sediment sampling (4000 samples taken over 5 square miles) and follow-up traverse soil sampling (350 samples) have been completed in the vicinity of the historic Kanappa copper mine, 7 miles north-east of Springton, to look for...

As part of a regional search for possible economic stratabound Early Palaeozoic base metal deposits, Kennecott Explorations carried out stream sediment sampling and geological mapping of the Kanyaka Syncline, plus more intensive near-mine exploration...

The subject licence area was taken up to explore for buried economic copper mineralisation in fractured/faulted, hydrothermally-altered Neoproterozoic country rocks associated with blind, near-surface diapiric structures that may have intruded into...

SML 214A was a one-year period of extended exploration tenure by licensee RMC Minerals at the Spring Creek copper mine and environs to allow a new farminee, Base Minerals Ltd, to conduct further work aimed at delineating extensions to the known...
