Two separate small areas located just north of Comet Outstation, that were originally taken up to explore for possible diamonds and Triassic-Jurassic kimberlite intrusions that could be associated with intensely faulted shallow basement, have also...

A small area centred about 10 km north of Tarcoola has been explored for possible economic buried IOCG mineralisation of Olympic Dam or Prominent Hill type, or any related gold-bearing magnetite skarns that may exist locally in the Proterozoic...

An area located just north of the Trans Australia Railway, between Malbooma and Lyons sidings, has been explored for possible economic secondary uranium mineralisation that could exist in Proterozoic and Tertiary strata overlying known uraniferous...

The north-western quarter of an area located on and immediately south of the Karari Fault, a major crustal structure which has controlled deposition at the southern limit of the Permian to Tertiary sediment-filled Tallaringa Trough, has now been...

An area with poor basement outcrop located approximately 110 km north-east of Ceduna and 40 km south-west of Tarcoola, which lies wholly within the eastern part of the Yellabinna Regional Reserve, is being explored primarily for possible economic...

An area centred ~85 km south-southeast of Coober Pedy, at the southern margin of the Lake Phillipson Trough, a long active tectonic feature now occupied by deep sedimentary fill, was taken up by a wholly-owned subsidiary to Monax Mining Ltd primarily...

The three licences comprising the Challenger West Project were taken up principally to explore for economic gold, which could possibly occur in strike extensions of known gold lodes formed within Archaean basement rocks that constitute the Challenger...

As part of a regional exploration project targeting possible economic secondary, roll-front style uranium deposits within buried Tertiary sediments of the Anthony Palaeochannel and its several tributaries, two areas located approximately 130-160 km...

As part of a continuing search for possible economic, zircon-rich Tertiary marine placer mineral sands deposits within its tenement holdings in the eastern Eucla Basin, licensee Iluka Resources carried out scout drilling on ELs 3163, 3201 and 3203...

As part of a regional exploration project targeting possible economic buried secondary, roll-front style uranium deposits within Tertiary sediments of the Wynbring Palaeochannel and its several tributaries, an area located approximately 75 km...

An area located 140 km north-west of Tarcoola was taken up to explore for possible economic high grade occurrences of palygorskite clays formed in Tertiary palaeochannels and associated playa lakes. This was a response to a discovery of palygorskite...

A large area centred ~100 km south-east of Streaky Bay was taken up to explore for possible buried Tertiary, palaeodrainage sediment-sourced, palaeomarine shoreface placer deposits of heavy mineral sands (HM). Diatreme believed that the coastline of...

An area located on central western Eyre Peninsula between Minnipa and Port Kenny was taken up to explore the Precambrian basement rocks, which are poorly exposed there, for possible economic buried iron oxide - associated copper-gold (IOCG) deposits....

An area centred ~220 km WSW of Coober Pedy, and lying immediately west of the Tallaringa Conservation Park, has been explored for possible buried economic sandstone-hosted secondary uranium deposits which might have formed within the Palaeocene...

An area centred ~300 km SW of Coober Pedy, and lying wholly within the Maralinga Tjarutja Aboriginal Lands, has been explored for possible buried economic sandstone-hosted secondary uranium deposits which might have formed within the Palaeocene...

An area centred ~150 km west of Coober Pedy has been explored for possible buried economic sandstone-hosted secondary uranium deposits which might have formed within eastwards-draining tributaries of the Tertiary Garford Palaeochannel. This...

Three drill cutting samples of carbonaceous sands were submitted for palynological analysis. The spore-pollen assemblages of drillholes NR 3 (from the depth interval 16-18 m) and NR 4 (16-18 m) are possibly of the latest Eocene Upper Nothofagidites...

Palynological analysis and dating of 45 sediment core samples, obtained from several rotary drillholes that have recently been drilled to explore for buried diamonds and kimberlite indicator minerals on Flinders Island, South Australia, has indicated...

Exploring the earth resources in the Harris Greenstone Belt (HGB) region is complicated by a regolith cover produced by a long and complex history of landscape evolution. The present surface of the HGB indicates little of the complex palaeochannel...

Palynological analyses of eight rotary cuttings samples taken from Konkaby 1 drillhole in the eastern Eucla Basin show distinctive microfloral assemblages. The oldest samples are dated as Middle Eocene, and correlate with the Lower Nothofagidites...
