Exploration work included geophysical surveys, reprocessing of airborne radiometric data, and rotary and diamond drilling (237 holes totalling 5975 m; total depths from 3-55 m) in a search for sedimentary uranium in Tertiary palaeochannels, and gold...

Exploration for possible stratiform sediment-hosted lead-zinc in Lower Proterozoic metasediments of the Middleback Range area included the compilation of a lineament map from Landsat images and available aeromagnetic data, generating and interpreting...

Possible base metal deposits in banded iron formations were the target of exploration in the vicinity of Salt Creek, 25 km north of Cowell on eastern Eyre Peninsula. A programme of geological mapping, rock chip geochemical sampling and the drilling...

Three diamond drillholes in the Queen Bee mine area intersected economic grades of copper over a mineable width in the New South Queen Bee Reef. Preliminary tonnage/grade calculations suggest that a small-scale mining venture may be economically...

Exploration for multiple base and precious metal commodities, possibly associated with magnetic anomalies in the De Rose Hill and Indulkana Range areas, has there identified a substantial Precambrian volcanic and intrusive complex, with rock types...

Rock chip sampling, detailed geological mapping and 1 percussion drillhole to 94 m tested the base metal potential of a banded iron formation horizon in Charlton Gully, near Bald Hill, 30 km north of Port Lincoln. Whilst the mineralogy of the rock is...

TARGET: Economic tin mineralisation. EXPLORATION: 1:32,000 scale detailed geological mapping, diamond drilling (9 shallow vertical holes - deepest 57 feet) in the Mount Mitchell area near Glenloth Goldfield, bulk sampling of greisen and vein quartz,...

TARGET: The Coober Pedy Ridge was investigated for possible iron ore, diamond and Olympic Dam-style Cu-Au-U mineralisation. EXPLORATION: Examination of available water bore data, aerial magnetic and radiometric surveys, aerial photography, a regional...

Investigation of banded iron formation in the Lincoln Uplands of the Tumby Bay district for possible South West African type base metal sulphide deposits consisted of rock chip and soil sampling at potential gossanous outcrops, and limited drilling of...

Following the first public announcement on 18/11/1976 by Western Mining Corp. of its giant Olympic Dam copper, gold and uranium discovery on Roxby Downs Station, Newmont Pty Ltd began a detailed assessment of the Stuart Shelf region of South...

This student vacational project report, for the Department's Petroleum Exploration Div., aimed to correlate the basement rocks met with in Great Australian Bight area offshore and near onshore petroleum exploration wells with outcropping formations...

Geological conditions affecting the construction programme are discussed, and recommendations made for detailed exploration.

A syncline containing regionally metamorphosed Precambrian magnetite-jaspilite and amphibolite beds was tested by two inclined diamond drill holes. OD 1, drilled 365 ft. to test the eastern flank, intersected four beds of jaspilite aggregating 86 ft....

Mapping of amphibolite outcrop and float indicates that there is in excess of 100,000 cubic yards of material possibly suitable for screenings. Gravels and clays may obscure material which would substantially increase these reserves. Two diamond...
