A group of adjoining tenements covering ground situated between Ceduna and the Trans Australia Railway are being explored for possible economic buried Tertiary marine placer deposits of heavy mineral sands. During the 2007-2008 joint reporting year,...

During the 2009-2010 reporting year, as part of the strategy to significantly advance the future development of the Hawks Nest Iron Ore Project, Western Plains Resources (WPG) successfully concluded a series of complex joint venture negotiations with...

Most of a sizeable licence area located on SA's Far West Coast, which formerly extended for 10 to 90 km inland from the vicinity of Bookabie, has now been partially relinquished owing to its perceived diminished prospectivity for Tertiary marine...

309.6 square km or ~18.77% of the pre-existing area of EL 5564 Poondinga was partially relinquished on 19/2/2019 because in the licensee's view this south-eastern portion of the licence are does not appear to exhibit the geological features required...

An area centred ~30 km north of Winnininnie is being explored for possible buried primary hydrothermal gold deposits within Neoproterozoic bedrock, as part of a broader search for same in a region which has significant surficial gold deposits which...

An assessment of the Late Tertiary Murray Basin shallow marine clastic sedimentary sequence (Loxton and Parilla sands) for heavy mineral sand accumulations has discovered numerous occurrences of economic to sub-economic amounts of heavy minerals...

Exploratory drilling carried out by BHP Billiton (BHPB) during the 2009-10 project reporting year took place at six prospects thought to have good IOCG mineralisation potential, based in part on earlier drilling results and also on refined target...

The two Lake Gregory project licences were located between the Birdsville Track and Lake Gregory, approximately 100 km north-northeast of Marree, and to the north of uranium exploration tenements held by Adavale Minerals. Regalpoint selected these...

Exploration for possible economic concealed Beltana mine type stratabound lead-zinc-(silver) mineralisation, and for other diapiric and associated basic igneous intrusion - related base metal and/or gold occurrences, was carried out over a small area...

The laser ablation - inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICPMS) U-Pb zircon geochronology data reported herein derive from three rock samples sourced from the central - northern Gawler Craton, South Australia. These samples have been...

During Dampier's exploration conducted near Morgan township in the western Murray Basin, the main target was possible economic coal measures in Cretaceous or Tertiary sediments, with the base metal potential of pre-Mesozoic basement rocks constituting...

This report details the field acquisition and data processing, inversion and interpretation stages of the Walparuta geophysical program conducted in December 2021. The work was focussed on the Walparuta Project area, located 20 km north of Manna Hill...

No field work was performed on the three subject licences during the period 2008-2010 inclusive. During 2010, Dominion Gold Operations undertook a desktop evaluation of the possible iron ore potential of the licences. During 2011, the licensee...

An intensely faulted and folded metasedimentary area centred ~50 km east-northeast of Blinman, where extensive hydrothermal alteration is evident in the Neoproterozoic bedrock, and where considerable past small-scale surface mining activity has...

In May 2004 the Minister for the Department of Environment and Heritage purchased Bimbowrie Station pastoral lease. The station was purchased because it encompasses part of the Olary Ranges, which is part of the environmentally important Broken Hill...

This report presents the results of a study jointly conducted by the Geological Survey of South Australia and CSIRO Mineral Resources which aimed to enhance the expression of geological structure in geophysical images and to derive depth to magnetic...

This report presents the results of exploration on the Director of Mines E.L.A. 383 at Sleaford Bay during November, 2006. A number of samples of Carnot Gneiss, Hutchison Group and Donington Suite granitoids were collected from coastal exposures at...

Possible diamondiferous kimberlite intrusions, and also economic base metals in the Cambrian bedrock strata, were the targets of exploration carried out in the Observatory Hill area, located approximately 250 km west of Coober Pedy. Initially, a 6200...

The WINTINNA 1:250 000 mapsheet area lies between latitudes 27° to 28° South and longitudes 133°30’ to 135°00’ East. This ~16 400 square km area includes the Marla and Cadney Park settlements, and is crossed by the Stuart Highway and Adelaide to...
