The current, version 1 release South Australia state-wide Solid Geology 3D Model is a new compilation of the pre-existing Gawler Province 3D Model and Curnamona Province 3D Model releases of 2005, that were both constructed in GeoModeller and then...

During the period reported, the open cut pit on the No. 1 lode was enlarged, six diamond drillholes were completed for a total penetration of 365 feet, and wagon (percussion) drilling was initiated, with the completion of 14 holes totalling 828 feet....

Gravel and stream sediment bulk sampling carried out at 83 sites in the upper Onkaparinga River Valley area (1660 kg processed for heavy mineral analysis and kimberlite indicator mineral determinations) has given no encouragement to the local Adelaide...

Three potentially gold and platinum / pallidium - bearing, known primary uranium-mineralised targets in the Palaeoproterozoic Houghton basement inlier, have been evaluated through the conduct of office-based geological and geophysical studies followed...

Exploration for possible subsurface epithermal / hydrothermal, vein - style gold and base metal mineralisation in the vicinity of historic mines on the Houghton Inlier has consisted of the acquisition and interpretation of an initial semi-detailed...

A substantial part of the central and southern Adelaide Hills, in the vicinity of the margins of Archaean basement inliers, was taken up by a Tennant Creek (NT) - based gold mining company to explore for possible buried economic gold and base metal...

Exploration for possible Precambrian hydrothermal vein style or unconformity type uranium deposits and for any other economic metalliferous minerals was carried out over several small inliers of Early Proterozoic rocks that crop out poorly through...

An area of approximately 10 square miles covering the River Torrens gorge in the vicinity of Paracombe was leased to explore for possible economic uranium and copper-lead-zinc deposits. Oxidised copper mineral stains on outcrops, and traces of copper...

During continued uranium exploration undertaken in the Houghton area 6 miles east-northeast of Adelaide, no field work was carried out because minor radiometric anomalies detected in the 1968 Houghton aerial radiometric survey data were interpreted as...

In a continuation of uranium exploration being carried out over the oldest basement rocks forming inliers to the Adelaide Geosyncline within the southern Mount Lofty Ranges, several minor radiometric anomalies near Mount Compass, that were indicated...

The SHRIMP zircon dating study described herein was undertaken as part of the National Geoscience Agreement (NGA), as a collaborative research project between the Geological Survey of South Australia (GSSA) and Geoscience Australia (GA). Eight samples...
