In February 1951, South Australian Barytes Limited became interested in this mine, held under claim by Reginald John Alfred Larsson and requested an inspection by Department of Mines officers. This request was repeated, and endorsed by Larsson in...

A ground magnetometer survey has been made of a number of magnetic anomalies found by an aeromagnetic survey of the northern portion of Yorke Peninsula. This region, some seventy miles to the west of north from Adelaide is of interest since in this...

The area of the Tiparra-Moonta Military sheet (scale ½ mile to the inch) has been mapped by the writer during 1954-55. Aerial photographs on the same scale have been used as a topographic base for the plotting of the geological data in the field....

Bedded sulphide mineralisation has been recognised in the carbonaceous felspathic siltstone host rocks of the Kapunda ore body environment. Evidence for lateral secretion origin for the ore veins is advanced. The new data enable recommendations to be...

A zinc sulphide lode with a quartz/calcite gangue 6 to 9 feet true thickness was penetrated by two drill holes in the left abutment of the proposed flood central dam on the upper site in the Sturt River. The lode is in a brecciated tillite believed to...

Lead and copper mineralisation occurs in rocks of Cambrian age in the Ediacara Mineral Field. Rich pockets of ore minerals of limited extent occur in the Transition beds and in the overlying carbonates, associated with breccias or turbidites....

The purpose of the work described was to compare and contrast the petrography, accessory minerals, and absolute ages of 25 granitic and allied rock samples collected from widely scattered localities in South Australia. The processes that are...
