The PORT AUGUSTA 1:250,000 mapsheet area covers the north-eastern part of the Eyre Peninsula, the northern Spencer Gulf and the south-western Flinders Ranges, and extends from latitude 32°00'S to 33°00'S and longitude 136°30'S to 138°00'S. The main...

Sandstone as a building material was used extensively in Adelaide and regional South Australia from the founding of the colony until the end of World War II. However, since 1945 the industry has declined steadily, with closure of many quarries, until...

The rolling hills, wheat paddocks and vineyards of the Mid-North region of South Australia conceal a geological transition between the Adelaide Hills and the Flinders Ranges. Here the landscape is subtly controlled by the Neoproterozoic bedrock...

Exploration for base and precious metal mineralisation within Neoproterozoic metasediments outcropping north of Paratoo and east of Carrieton has highlighted the significant controlling influence of intense alteration genetically related to regional...

Exploration for base and precious metal mineralisation within Neoproterozoic metasediments outcropping 20 km east-northeast of Orroroo has highlighted the significant controlling influence of intense alteration genetically related to regional mafic...

Widespread indications of gold mineralisation known from an area located north-east of Hallett were examined by evaluation of available data, including the interpretation of some newly released Stockdale Exploration aeromagnetic survey data, and by...

Exploration in an area around the historic Prince Alfred mine consisted mainly of detailed geological mapping and compilation of data derived from comprehensive literature searches, together with processing and interpretation of available geophysical...

1:40,000 scale geological mapping and soil geochemical sampling performed in the vicinity of the Paratoo copper mine, 300 km north-east of Adelaide, demonstrated both structural and lithological controls to known mineralisation. Stored historic...

Base metal and gold exploration was carried out near the Great Gladstone Mine, approximately 15 km southeast of Quorn. Preliminary rock chip samples obtained within a north - plunging anticline were anomalous for Cu and Ba, and one barite / haematite...

Soil and rock chip sampling together with reconnaissance mapping were carried out over an area of possible igneous intrusion-related skarn alteration of Adelaidean calcareous metasediments, located approximately 5 km north-west of Stonefield. The...

The purpose of this interpretation is to provide an initial framework for the basement to the Murray Basin upon which to plan the Geological Survey of South Australia’s MinEx CRC National Drilling Initiative drilling project targeting the Delamerian...

HyVista Corporation was contracted by DMITRE during August-September 2013 to process an archived set of HyMap airborne hyperspectral scanner data of the Earth's surface radiance properties, that had previously been acquired on 26/2/2003 from a survey...

In a search for possible stratiform hydrothermal gold deposits in a stratigraphic/structural setting similar to those of economic gold occurrences at the Mount Grainger Goldfield and on the Paratoo Dome, 45 rock chip samples were collected from...

Exploration was undertaken for Telfer - style stratabound gold at the contact between the Tapley Hill Formation and the Tarcowie Siltstone, and for placer type gold in glacial sequences such as the Appila Tillite and Wilyerpa Formation (94 stream...

No field work - the information reported comprises a review of previous geological and geophysical data, plus elements of a regional structural interpretation, and was used to direct exploration target selection.

Exploration for possible economic secondary deposits of copper, uranium and gold that might be associated with known iron-rich sediments deposited at or near the base of the Sturtian sedimentary sequence, within an area extending from 60-120 km north...

No new work. Report describes the results of a SAMREF database literature search for available geological information pertaining to the Kapunda mine, with a consultant's overview of the geological setting and exploration potential for finding related...

Exploration activities have included reconnaissance (1:20,000 scale) and detailed (1:1000 scale) geological mapping, limited surface rock chip sampling (9 samples), and the excavation of 31 costeans to expose for examination more than 580 linear m of...

An exploration licence area covering 120 square miles in the vicinity of the Eurelia Anticline was taken up by Utah Development to search for possible economic Zambian Copperbelt-style stratiform copper deposits within upper Adelaidean metasedimentary...
