The Copper King orebody, located approximately 10 miles north-northeast of Beltana township, is a massive deposit of iron carbonate, the upper portion of which has been altered by oxidation and hydration to oxides of iron. The deposit was worked...

For at least the past forty years the flint deposits occurring on the lower south east coast of South Australia have been worked to supply a comparatively limited Australian demand for flint pebbles as a grinding medium in the mining and paint...

Australia imports annually approximately 2000 tons of red iron oxide which is used as a pigment in the paint, rubber, linolem and building industries. Previous laboratory testwork on an iron ore from Malcolm Creek had shown that a hematite flotation...

At the request of the South Australian Department of Mines a survey of current Australian usage of mineral fillers and pigments was made. The survey was intended to determine the consumptions and specifications typical of various industries and to...

Very tight folding and remobilization of the Sturtian Holowilena Ironstone has produced a massive ironstone blow and small lenses of micaceous haematite. The haematitic quartz rock is not suitable for pigments, and lenses of haematite of pigment...

Mines are significant as Wheal Gawler was the first metalliferous mine in Australia, discovered 1840, produced the first mineral exports, and includes the oldest remaining mine chimney in South Australia.

Seven wells were drilled in the Oak Valley area. One well drilled at the airstrip yielded 3 L/s of 74 000 mg/L water, a quality that is only suitable to use for compaction. Three wells drilled close to swamps located west of Oak Valley gave low yields...

Nilpena deposits comprise no. 1 and 2 lodes and Jim Crowe lode on the western flank of the Flinders Ranges. The no. 1 and 2 lodes cross cut Brachina Formation on the western limb of the Nuccaleena Dome, whereas Jim Crowe lode has been emplaced along...

Geological interpretation from drilling and seismic information, on an Early Palaeozoic sedimentary basin containing Early Cambrian to possibly Devonian age rocks. Middle to latest Late Cambrian sediments (Kalladeina Formation) and probable Cambrian...

The Benagerie Ridge is a basement high which has been actively shedding detritus since Adelaidean times. It includes porphyry, with thin cover of Adelaidean rocks, flanked by Cambrian and possible Adelaidean sediments. The Cainozoic blankets the...

The geological evolution is summarised and characteristic landscapes of the past are described according to the palaeosols developed on them. Their evolution is set down in relation to the evolution of man and the material of use to early man.

World references published since 1970 relating to geological models, analytical data and latest uses were compiled.
