Soil geochemical sampling (940 samples) carried out on a 1000 foot by 1500 foot grid pattern over the Arkaba Diapir, aiming to check for possible economic zinc mineralisation that may have formed within the diapiric breccias and related fracture zones...

Extrapolation of a prospective copper-mineralised Neoproterozoic target horizon into the subject licence from WMC's northerly-adjoining EL271 has prompted a brief investigation of its potential through aerial photointerpretation, detailed 1:15,000...

Outcropping Lower Cambrian carbonate rocks, plus Adelaidean diapiric rocks located west of the historical Mount Bayley copper mine, were tested for concealed base metal mineralisation by collecting and analysing 133 regional stream sediment samples....

A possible association between copper and uranium mineralisation such as had been reported in the early 1950s at the Nicholl's Nob mine, located just to the east of the subject licence, was pursued by E-Z, who in this case examined the western...

Exploration of the known copper-bearing Lower Adelaidean metasediments outcropping in the Willouran Ranges to the south-west of Marree addressed the many historical mine prospects and also the region as a whole. Initial work comprised a regional...

Exploration for possible extensions to previously worked barite lodes and for new vein deposits in the Oladdie area comprised an initial familiarisation study tour of the geological setting of commercial barite deposits elsewhere in the Flinders...

Several minor occurrences of copper sulphide mineralisation associated with diapirism and igneous activity centred on the Mount Remarkable Fault were investigated by a literature survey of salient features and of past exploration methods used. It was...

A review of past exploration carried out in the vicinity of the Arkaba Diapir has concluded that the potential for finding near-surface economic metal mineralisation is slight, although the use of modern deeply penetrating geophysical techniques such...

Regional stream sediment sampling conducted over an area of historically prospective ?Archaean, Proterozoic and Palaeozoic rocks in the Mount Painter - Mount Babbage - Mount Livingstone - Yudnamutana area did not reveal any base or precious metal...

Possibly prospective copper mineral occurrences in the vicinity of Beltana were investigated by conducting part of a multi-licence aerial survey over them, and by researching all of the existing information on the local geology. An extensive desktop...

Possible hydrothermally - deposited native mercury metal associated with the Mount John Fault zone, perhaps in a quartz splinter vein setting similar to that of the mercury occurrence previously found nearby at the Moro mine, plus elsewhere, economic...

In a search for possible economic stratiform copper occurrences in Upper Proterozoic sediments of the Willouran Ranges, the licensee undertook photogeological and field mapping studies plus a regional geochemical survey of outcropping rocks and...

Exploration for possible economic stratabound/stratiform copper, zinc and vanadium mineralisation occurring within a large area located south-west of Marree has consisted of geological field mapping and regional stream sediment sampling (3470...

A structurally deformed area in the southwestern corner of SML 704, having many copper carbonate showings and small historic workings known as the Yudnamutana Mining Field, has been mapped at a semi-detailed scale. The area is transected by the...

Several broad IP anomalies were identified at Oraparinna, possibly representing buried metallic sulphide mineralisation in the concentration range 2-5%. No strong IP responses were detected. Two areas of definite interest were seen in the IP results...

An area of several square miles surrounding Arkarooola Homestead has been explored for possible economic copper occurences, which could include deeper lode extensions at several abandoned mines. Aerial reconnaissance and ground prospecting traverses...

Results of a petrological and mineragraphic examination of several suites of mineralised samples, taken from within the lower and upper Callanna Beds around the southern margin of the Mount Painter Province. Interpretive comments are given about the...
