In this article we present new EPMA monazite geochronological data from the deformed and metamorphosed Sleaford Complex units at Fishery Bay in the southern Gawler Craton. The results show that these fabrics formed during the development of the...

Following a review of previous company exploration and image interpretation of SAEI and BMR aeromagnetic data, a 3166 line km airborne magnetic/radiometric survey, with follow-up ground magnetics and air core drilling (282 holes, 4559 m), was carried...

Diamonds and base and precious metal exploration undertaken north-east of Port Kenny on western Eyre Peninsula comprised loam sampling for kimberlite indicator minerals, RC drilling (7 vertical holes, total 470 m), plus bedrock petrological, heavy...

Exploration for unconformity-related uranium deposits has been performed within the subject ELs by Pancontinental Mining on behalf of joint venture partners since 1979. The initial exploration concept was to look for economic deposits occurring at or...

The Mineral Systems Drilling Program (MSDP) was a $3.5M cash and $4.11M in-kind collaborative drill program involving government, researchers, service providers and the minerals industry. The objective of the MSDP was to further the understanding of...

This geochronological study was undertaken within the scope of the Mineral Systems Drilling Program (MSDP), a program that was aimed at improving the understanding of the geology and prospectivity of the southern Gawler Ranges margin area on northern...

Two adjacent licence areas forming part of a contiguous set of project tenements in the central Eyre Peninsula region are being explored by Adelaide Resources (AR) primarily for gold and base metals, which it is thought may occur in buried deposits...

Renewed diamond exploration has been conducted in a part of the western Eyre Peninsula where numerous kimberlite indicator mineral (KIM) anomalies occur in surficial sediments, and where the four adjoining licence areas involved lie in close proximity...

During the 2014 project reporting year, licensee Adelaide Resources undertook a research and development phase surface-based biogeochemical and field portable X ray fluorescence (FPXRF) spectrometric sampling programme over its Baggy Green gold...

Lady Alice Mines was successful in receiving funding in the third round of The Accelerated Discovery Initiative (ADI). This funding was provided to allow for the assessment of Controlled Source Audio-Magnetotellurics (CSAMT) and Loupe TEM ground...

A number of tenements on central northern Eyre Peninsula are being explored by Adelaide Resources and its joint venture partner Newmont Mining for possible economic buried deposits of gold, copper and other base metals which may have formed in the...

14 square km or 35% of the former area of EL 5931, and 3 square km or ~5.2% of the former area of EL 6379, have recently been relinquished due to their now perceived diminished prospectivity for buried base and precious metal mineralisation. Work...

During the report period, licensee Andromeda Metals did no on-ground exploration. During its agreed 3-year earn-in period, joint venturer Investigator Resources undertook the following work described herein: - acquisition of high resolution aerial...

Geochemical and isotopic data from mantle-derived mafic rocks provide important constraints on our understanding of the composition and evolution of the lithosphere through time. Since the lithosphere is sensitive to tectonic processes such as...

The geology of the Lake Gilles locale in the south-west of the PORT AUGUSTA 1:250k map sheet area is poorly understood. Outcrop of basement rocks there is sparse, and typically occurs along the margins of the salt lake, where it is highly weathered....

The KIMBA 1:250 000 geological map sheet (hereafter referred to as KIMBA) lies in central Eyre Peninsula, extending between latitudes 33° to 34° S and longitudes 135° to 136°30'E (Fig 1). The principal towns are Kimba and Cleve, with smaller towns at...

The YARDEA 1:250,000 scale regional geological map area straddles the southern margin of the Gawler Ranges on northern Eyre Peninsula. The only major township within the area is Minnipa, with Kimba and Wudinna both located immediately south of the...

A licence composed of four separate small sub-blocks which generally lie ~90 to 120 km north-northeast of Port Lincoln is being explored primarily for extensions to known graphite-bearing horizons which may exist to the north and south of the...
