The St Peter Suite has been previously interpreted to have formed in a subduction-related setting; however, there are limited data with which to assess this interpretation. This report comprises two parts. The first is a summary of Sensitive High...

The 2010 GOMA basement drilling program formed part of a collaborative ARC Linkage Project LP0882000 " Unearthing the marginal terrains of the South Australian Craton: Keystone of Proterozoic Australia " arranged between Primary Industries and...

This technical report presents laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICPMS) U-Pb zircon geochronology data for 15 rock samples derived from locations spread across the Gawler Craton. The purpose of the subject dating project...

This Report Book contains zircon U-Pb geochronological data obtained between December 2006 and June 2007, for rock samples derived from the Gawler Craton of South Australia. The geochronological study was undertaken as part of the National Geoscience...

The Corunna Conglomerate is a sequence of unmetamorphosed fluvial to shallow marine sediments, comprising conglomerates, sandstones and siltstones, which were deposited in active fault grabens in the eastern Gawler Craton. It is found on the...

A combined total area of 1021 square km has recently been relinquished by Iluka from three geographically separate Group 4 tenements, due to the lack of significant marine sands there and the absence of significant HM accumulations shown by first pass...

Seven exploration licences which together comprised the western portion of Iluka's Group 4 of jointly reported tenements have been fully surrendered, after work performed there recently suggested that their perceived prospectivity for Tertiary...

Exploration for possible economic stratiform/syngenetic base metal deposits and/or structurally controlled epithermal/hydrothermal gold and uranium occurrences within Lower Cambrian metasediments over the central section of Kangaroo Island included...

No heavy mineral sands exploration of the Tertiary sedimentary sequence was carried out on the now relinquished area, as the licensee considers it to have low prospectivity in comparison to others of its tenements held in the region south-east of...

A small licence area located 30 km north of Fowlers Bay in far western South Australia has been explored for possible economic Tertiary mineral sands deposits, but specific activities on it were repeatedly postponed by the licensee not committing the...

The western two-thirds, or 427 square km, of an area located on the eastern side of the Nullarbor Plain, ~200 km north-west of Ceduna, has been partially relinquished because in the licensee's opinion it does not exhibit the geological features...

The remnant portion of EL 4962, which is centred ~30 km north-east of Ceduna, has now been fully surrendered owing to a perceived lack of prospectivity for economic detrital zircon entrapped there within Tertiary Eucla Basin sediments. During the...

After its purchase of the subject EL 5069 on 8/7/2013, a single drilling campaign was undertaken by Iluka Resources during August-October 2013, when 11 RC aircore vertical open holes were drilled for a total penetration of 266.5 m. Ten of the holes...

A group of exploration licences located on the northern margin of the Eucla Basin, and situated north of the Trans Australian Railway, which cover ground extending into the Eocene to Miocene marginal marine depositional hinterland behind the Barton...

Three adjoining licence areas that were centred approximately 480 km north-west of Ceduna together occupied the northern section of the Ooldea Range over a stepped NW-SE trending outline having an average width of 25 km and a combined total length of...

An area surrounding Mount Wedge in the Polda district, 30 km north-east of Elliston, was taken up to explore for possible economic Tertiary heavy mineral sands deposits. However, the results of an internal review of the tenement's prospectivity, based...

An area comprising two separate blocks located ~20 km west and ~45 km north of Fowlers Bay has been explored for possible buried Pleistocene reworked heavy mineral sands (HM) marine placer mineralisation that may have become concentrated within the...

Within an area located approximately 110 km north-west of Ceduna, exploration has primarily been directed at assessing the heavy mineral sands potential of Tertiary Eucla Basin shoreline sediments, with an additional objective of determining the base...

Iluka Resources is exploring for possible economic heavy mineral (HM) deposits that may have formed in the northern Murray Basin, with a strategy of targeting any mineralised Loxton-Parilla Sand formation sediments deposited during the Pliocene marine...

Iluka Resources’ Eucla Basin Heavy Mineral Sands Project tenement Group 2 consisted initially ELs 3268, 3283, 3322 and 3330, which spanned the south-eastern portion of the Eucla Basin, extending from 24 km to 140 km north of Ceduna. Regionally, the...
