An area of 100 square km, located 45 km west of Kingscote, was taken to enable follow-up exploration of some anomalous stream sediment geochemical sample values in lead (to a maximum 3200 ppm Pb) previously discovered by Elcor (Australia) Pty Ltd, but...

Ongoing exploration for possible Tertiary sediment-hosted roll front uranium occurrences in an area abutting western Lake Frome has consisted of the drilling of 7 open rotary holes for a total of 1384 m, to test ground midway between previously...

Reports describe the ongoing field prospecting and downstream jade marketing activities associated with the Cowell nephrite jade discovery. Black nephrite blocky material extracted from the operating company's new mining leases (MLs 4130-4132) was...

14 rotary percussion holes were drilled to test for extensions of the Klein Point limestone deposit. In the area drilled, Tertiary bryozoan limestone horizons were found to have an average vertical thickness of 28 m; their quality is comparable to...

Late in 1981, BHP Minerals whilst exploring on its Orroroo region EL 891 discovered four stream gravel samples containing kimberlite indicator minerals. The stream drainage system in which these samples occur commences south of the southern boundary...

In order to further test a large Delamerian granite pluton for its potential to host an economic porphyry molybdenum deposit of the Climax, Colorado type (following initial exploratory drilling and IP surveys that had been carried out by the SA...

As a part of continuing exploration for possible economic buried epithermal / hydrothermal / metasomatic and skarn-related base metal and gold deposits undertaken within an area of shallow Lower Proterozoic basement located approximately 30 miles west...

In a search for possible concealed Olympic Dam type base metal deposits within an area located 80 km north-west of Yalata, the licensee investigated several previously identified contiguous magnetic and gravity anomalies by performing ground magnetic...

Grid-based gravity, ground magnetic and EM depth sounding surveys were conducted in the Coondambo area in the search for Olympic Dam style mineralisation possibly associated with regional gravity highs. The licensee failed to attract a joint venturer...

Drilling of 3 rotary mud holes totalling 392 m on gravity lows in the Mabel Creek area disclosed only thin seams of lignite at about 66 m depth. Because the holes were not geophysically logged, the coal seam thickness could not be ascertained....

Detailed stream sediment, loam and barrage sampling carried out over the main channel and various tributaries of the Manunda Creek drainage system confirmed the presence of widespread kimberlitic indicator minerals, plus a 31 microdiamonds. 5 small...

Results of water bore sampling (7 samples) and drilling of 6 holes totalling 614 metres were disappointing. The drill holes intersected Adelaidean and Cretaceous sediments underlying Tertiary ? - Quaternary fluviatile sediments, without encountering...

Ongoing base metal exploration in the Arkaroola Station region of the north-eastern Flinders Ranges by licensee North Flinders Mines (NFM) has involved reviews of certain existing prospects, which has led to the entry of farminee Shell Minerals...

This report summarises the relevant results of previous copper exploration in the Yudnamutana Hill area by Utah Exploration Co. and Australian Aquitaine Petroleum Pty Ltd, and suggests an ongoing exploration programme for stratiform copper. It also...

This report reviews exploration work done from 1965 through 1993 by North Flinders Mines and four joint venturers on the Northern Flinders Ranges Gunsight Project. The enormous number of reports and interpretive maps generated are listed as...

This report re-evaluates the assay data obtained from the 1979 stream sediment geochemistry programme carried out for Marathon Petroleum by N.J. Marshall and Associates within the Gunsight Project areas, and recommends follow-up work. Samples taken by...

Drilling of a 196 m deep vertical diamond hole to further investigate the oil shale potential of Permian strata in the axis of the Boorthanna Trough, north of Billa Kalina Homestead, intersected only Lower Permian glacial sediments below 30 m thick...

The Ukaparinga and Southern Hills prospects lie within EL 99, a small exploration tenement located near the Warren Reservoir, 20 km south-east of Gawler. The included Ukaparinga mine area is privately held under three mineral claims, over which...

Within the surrendered sections of the subject exploration licences in the Karoonda, Marmon Jabuk, Swan Reach, Blanchetown and Cooke Plains areas, following the conduct there of a 45.4 line km gravity survey and the drilling and geophysical logging of...
