Two areas located 35-40 km north and north-west of Glendambo and 60 km west of the Olympic Dam mine were taken up to explore for possible epithermal / hydrothermal / metasomatic and haematite-rich Olympic Dam type deposits, or possible evidence of...

A group of adjoining tenements covering ground situated between Ceduna and the Trans Australia Railway are being explored for possible economic buried Tertiary marine placer deposits of heavy mineral sands. During the 2007-2008 joint reporting year,...

During the 2009-2010 reporting year, as part of the strategy to significantly advance the future development of the Hawks Nest Iron Ore Project, Western Plains Resources (WPG) successfully concluded a series of complex joint venture negotiations with...

Two contiguous areas located south of the Gawler Ranges, between Buckleboo and Franklin Harbour, were taken up primarily to explore the Early Proterozoic metasedimentary sequence for possible Broken Hill type economic stratiform / hydrothermal base...

An area underlain by possible Broken Hill district - style Palaeoproterozoic basement strata, situated on the northern margin of the Curnamona Province, was explored by conducting 50 line km of reconnaissance ground geophysical profiles comprising...

All of the south-western tip and hinterland of the Fleurieu Peninsula was taken up to explore for inferred buried IOCG-style copper-gold-uranium mineralisation which, by analogy with properties of the known eastern Gawler Craton occurrences, was...

Most of a sizeable licence area located on SA's Far West Coast, which formerly extended for 10 to 90 km inland from the vicinity of Bookabie, has now been partially relinquished owing to its perceived diminished prospectivity for Tertiary marine...

The Yankalilla coastal and river valley district of the west-central Fleurieu Peninsula was taken up to explore for inferred buried IOCG-style copper-gold-uranium mineralisation which, by analogy with properties of the known eastern Gawler Craton...

The Thompson Nickel Belt of Canada was considered an analogue for the Fowler Suture Zone on the western margin of the Gawler Craton, 150 km north-west of Ceduna. Here, intensely magnetic zones consisting of cumulus gabbro-diorite and tonalite are...

Two adjoining areas located north of Koonibba were taken up to explore this part of the south-eastern Eucla Basin for possible buried economic marine placer deposits of heavy mineral sands (HM), because they were believed to contain shallow or exposed...

309.6 square km or ~18.77% of the pre-existing area of EL 5564 Poondinga was partially relinquished on 19/2/2019 because in the licensee's view this south-eastern portion of the licence are does not appear to exhibit the geological features required...

An area located 35 km south-east of Tarcoola was targeted for gold because of interpreted aeromagnetic data, which suggested the presence of discrete Archaean iron formations and mafic rocks within the more widely distributed Kenella Gneiss, a rock...

An area located ~12 km south-west of Warramboo on central Eyre Peninsula has been explored for possible buried economic Archaean stratabound iron ore, as well as for other, basement-hosted polymetallic mineral occurrences. During the first licence...

An area centred ~30 km north of Winnininnie is being explored for possible buried primary hydrothermal gold deposits within Neoproterozoic bedrock, as part of a broader search for same in a region which has significant surficial gold deposits which...

The Eukaby mining field area of the eastern Flinders Ranges was explored for Au-Ag-Pb-Zn mineralisation, while geophysical data modelling targetted Olympic Dam style metallogenic systems. Information gained from detailed structural mapping and rock...

An assessment of the Late Tertiary Murray Basin shallow marine clastic sedimentary sequence (Loxton and Parilla sands) for heavy mineral sand accumulations has discovered numerous occurrences of economic to sub-economic amounts of heavy minerals...

Exploratory drilling carried out by BHP Billiton (BHPB) during the 2009-10 project reporting year took place at six prospects thought to have good IOCG mineralisation potential, based in part on earlier drilling results and also on refined target...

The two Lake Gregory project licences were located between the Birdsville Track and Lake Gregory, approximately 100 km north-northeast of Marree, and to the north of uranium exploration tenements held by Adavale Minerals. Regalpoint selected these...

Exploration for possible economic concealed Beltana mine type stratabound lead-zinc-(silver) mineralisation, and for other diapiric and associated basic igneous intrusion - related base metal and/or gold occurrences, was carried out over a small area...

The laser ablation - inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICPMS) U-Pb zircon geochronology data reported herein derive from three rock samples sourced from the central - northern Gawler Craton, South Australia. These samples have been...
