Results suggest enhancement of radon concentration in the air and in the radioactivity of deposited dust close to the tailings dump.

Adjustments have been made to the drier so that this now operates according to manufacturer's instructions. Dust concentration, apart from those caused by neglect in operating, appear similar to those found during sampling on the previous visit in...

In tests carried out on the 12th September 1956, in the Product Room at the Port Pirie Chemical Plant, dust concentrations were found to be excessive, especially in the drum filling area. Further dust suppressive measures are necessary. Product room...

Samples taken at the Chemical Treatment Plant show that dust concentrations in the air of the product packing room, though still too high for safety, show some decided improvement and considerably greater uniformity than when sampled previously.

SALT MINING STUDY: Field tests on the feasibility of Lake Torrens salt production to supply raw material for the planned Redcliff Petrochemical Project were continued, with project planning technical data demonstrations given to visiting officials of...

Reports on monitoring of: - air and solid waste pollution; - drill pad rehabilitation; - meteorology, vegetation, flora, fauna and soil salinity; - mine ground water drainage; - artesian water drawdown at Wellfield A in the Great Artesian Basin;...

Results of a public survey, conducted to ascertain the degree of seismic type disturbance occasioned by an accidental sonic boom emanating from an RAAF supersonic military jet aircraft flying northwards over Gulf St Vincent during the Australian Grand...

A trial reconnaisance soil gas geochemistry survey conducted in areas to the east and west of Mount Gambier defined several anomalous zones and confirmed the presence of hydrocarbons in strata overlying several leads defined by Beach primarily from...

The 5th Australian Regolith Geoscientists Association (ARGA) Conference was held in Wallaroo, South Australia, from 8th to 11th of April 2018. This multi-disciplinary conference displayed a wide variety of regolith-related research news on various...

NERDDP Project 1033 had the primary objective of re-assessing the log analysis methods currently used for gas reserves assessment of the Cooper Basin. These methods include those of Porter (1976), Northcott (1982) and Overton and Hamilton (1986)....

This project, initiated and managed by SADME, aimed to improve in-house methods of petrophysical log analysis in order to more reliably estimate producible gas reserves in the Moomba and Big Lake Fields, via more accurate estimation of reservoir...

A wide-ranging geochemical exploration programme has continued, testing soils of the region for possible mercury emissions from basement, by performing laboratory analyses of samples of the soil vapour after these were first trapped in shallow auger...

TARGET: Brine in fractures within a 200 foot thickness of the Wilkawillina Limestone, for salt production. EXPLORATION: Drilling of one rotary mud hole to 175.56 m, groundwater sample analyses, water yield pump tests, experimental salt recovery via...
