Push tube samples of carbonate lakebed sediment obtained from four sites on Lake Hawdon South were inspected and the cored material was judged to be unsuitable for use as paper filler or as agricultural lime. Therefore this part of the licence has...

Approved PACE project DPY2-11 was an attempt to find calcrete or roll-front type sedimentary uranium mineralisation in Quaternary fluvial channels that drain the northern and eastern margins of the uranium-enriched Mount Painter and Mount Babbage...

Reconnaissance geological mapping of existing, previously quite productive opal workings in the White Hill area of the Stuart Range 'Breakaway' country, 100 km south-east of Coober Pedy, was followed by exploratory and infill narrow-hole auger deep...

41 open-hole rotary drillholes (total 5999 metres) were drilled and geophysically logged to search for possible sedimentary uranium occurrences in the Early Cretaceous Parabarana Formation and in overlying altered Miocene sands, over an area of the...

56 RC holes totalling 1003 m were drilled near Owen, west of the Alma and East Owen Faults, in areas considered prospective for Tertiary glassmaking sands. Here the Quaternary clay overburden to the target sand beds is generally 4 to 6 metres thick....

Comprises details of the operations, field acquisition, results and interpretation of the aeromagnetic survey. A total of 2860 km of lines and tie-lines were flown; N-S lines were spaced at 3-6 km, E-W tie-lines were spaced 8, 12 and 16 km apart;...

The enclosed reports describe geological, hydrological, geotechnical, market research, and plant design and trial construction work that has been carried out with a view to determining the feasibility of an integrated groundwater and seawater salt...

G.J. Long and Associates, at the request of Outback Oil NL, has undertaken a review of seismic and magnetic data recently obtained from the offshore portion of OEL 33. The amount of data available for study is limited, with the spacing of seismic...

Report 1: field operators report on the seismic survey of the Otway and Bass Basins, November to December 1967; good quality data were recorded. Report 2: field operators report on the seismic survey of the Otway Basin (Cape Jaffa, SA, to Cape Grim,...

In a search for possible economic sedimentary uranium deposits within paralic Tertiary sediments of the north-western Murray Basin, an airborne radiometric survey was flown which delineated several apparently anomalous areas, and 42 open rotary mud...

Between March and May 1966, contractor Aero Service Ltd recorded an offshore aeromagnetic survey over the Great Australian Bight for Outback Oil Co NL and Shell Development Australia, who are the licence holders of offshore petroleum exploration...

Reports describe an offshore sampling survey conducted of the topmost seabed sediments in a portion of Gulf St Vincent, over six days (non-consecutive) during December 1974 and January 1975. The aim was to map the occurrence and estimate the volume of...

R 6 survey details (first part of survey - Oct.'71 to Jan.'72): AIM: To confirm and detail structural trends and leads in EPPs SA-6, 7 and 10, as part of Shell's shallow water offshore programme, with the intent of providing future drilling locations....

An exploration licence area covering 120 square miles in the vicinity of the Eurelia Anticline was taken up by Utah Development to search for possible economic Zambian Copperbelt-style stratiform copper deposits within upper Adelaidean metasedimentary...

Exploration undertaken in an area of practically no outcrop that is situated north and north-west of the Ediacara Range, on the eastern side of Lake Torrens, has aimed primarily at investigating the mineral potential of a large, low amplitude...

Fairly detailed review of late Palaeozoic geosynclinal and Cambrian shelf sedimentation. Describes broad structural characteristics of whole geosynclinal area, (particularly the interference between the Jura type folding at Copley and Olary giving...

In a search for Mississippi Valley - type Pb-Zn deposits within the Angepena Syncline, 35 km east of Copley, helicopter-assisted geological mapping at 1:25,000 scale, photogeological studies and reconnaissance stream sediment geochemical sampling were...
