This ADI funded programme consisted of exploration drilling, geophysics programs and aboriginal employment relating to copper exploration conducted over the Mt Craig Project in the Flinders Ranges of South Australia. Exploration activities were...

TARGET: Diamonds, gold and copper in the Mount Roebuck area. EXPLORATION: Drainage, loam and rock chip sampling, ground magnetic, radiometric and IP surveys, and diamond drilling (4 holes totalling 739 m). RESULTS: A single, 0.5 mm x 0.4 mm diameter...

TARGET: Possible economic, open-pit mineable stratiform low grade gold and copper deposits within Adelaidean units of the Nackara Arc, in an area lying west of and including Yunta. EXPLORATION: A detailed geological field reconnaissance, review of...

TARGET: Economic fine-grained, Telfer style gold mineralisation occurring as syngenetic stratabound deposits formed in sedimentary basins during or soon after periods of basin subsidence and instability. The eastern limb of the large, overturned...

TARGET: Stratabound gold, or hydrothermally altered vein stockwork copper-gold mineralisation that commonly is structurally emplaced within folded, brittle fractured competent Adelaidean metasedimentary units, in an area 20 km east of Peterborough....

In the central Flinders Ranges, Neoproterozoic and early Palaeozoic rocks are found outcropping within a series of broad, open, dome and basin-shaped folds. This region contains most of the diapiric structures in the Adelaide Geosyncline, many, but...

Report presents a consultant's independent assessment of the petroleum potential and risked prospect status for PEL 41, using data provided by the licensee.

PEL 41 was granted to a deliberately SA-based new venture exploration company consisting of Chairman and well-known Emeritus Professor of Geology Eric Rudd, four other founding honorary and unsalaried directors, and 100 or so individual speculative...

EL 417 Wirrabara was secured by CRA to investigate previously untested aeromagnetic, induced polarisation and resistivity anomalies in the Wirrabara - Charlton area, and a reported kimberlite at Bangor. Work has consisted of: - 3 line km of IP...

Strike-oriented residual soil sampling (662 samples taken at nominal 100 m spacings along 90 km of traverses) over the pyritic and carbonaceous basal Tindelpina Shale Member of the Tapley Hill Formation, in the northern Flinders Ranges 65 km east of...

As part of a regional search for possible economic stratabound Kanmantoo / Mount Torrens type base metal mineralisation, CRA undertook follow-up geochemical sampling traverses in areas surrounding Eudunda, where the SA Department of Mines and Energy...

Continuing assessment of the stratiform copper potential of the Kapunda Mine area and now also the surrounding country has consisted of diamond and percussion drilling, assaying of mineralised intersections (best intercept 10 m @ 2.13% Cu from 427-437...

52 exploratory diamond cored (NQ) drillholes completed over the period December 1971 to May 1973, for a total penetration of 17, 687 feet.

Ongoing exploration for possible economic stratiform copper deposits occurring in Late Proterozoic metasediments forming the Eurelia Anticline has concentrated on evaluating mainly the Copper Claim prospect plus four less attractive prospects, after...

The Mount McTaggart prospect is located 15 miles south-west of Arkaroola Base Camp and 3 miles west of the Arkaroola-Balcanoona Road. A programme of ten rotary percussion holes totalling 3457 feet commenced on 11/10/1971 and was completed on...

Five hundred drainage geochemical samples were collected in an area of 16½ square miles over the Mount Grainger Diapir and surrounding country rock, during February and March 1963. Results of this survey outlined an extensive copper, lead, zinc...

Diapiric marbles and dolomitic siltstone breccia of presumed Willouran age intrude younger Umberatana Group rocks which have been folded into an elongate domal structure and, in part, rest unconformably on the diapiric core. Within the diapir several...

Mapping of the Winnininnie 1:63,360 mapsheet has been undertaken as part of a programme to complete mapping of the Olary 1:250,000 Sheet. The area lies about 200 miles from Adelaide on the road and railway line to Broken Hill, and includes the...
