Exploration for unconformity-related uranium deposits has been performed within the subject ELs by Pancontinental Mining on behalf of joint venture partners since 1979. The initial exploration concept was to look for economic deposits occurring at or...

This guidebook is divided into two parts; a brief resume of the regional geology of the southern Gawler Craton; and descriptions for each of the excursion stops. The Gawler Craton is a large region of continental crust which was cratonized ca 1400...

The Mineral Systems Drilling Program (MSDP) was a $3.5M cash and $4.11M in-kind collaborative drill program involving government, researchers, service providers and the minerals industry. The objective of the MSDP was to further the understanding of...

A licence consisting of two separate sub-blocks located ~30 km west-northwest of Iron Knob is being explored for possible economic buried Paris type epithermal/hydrothermal gold and silver mineralisation, as well as for Menninnie Dam type...

A small area located on the eastern side of the Roopena Fault Zone, proximal to the south-eastern margin of the Gawler Ranges, is being explored for possible buried epigenetic gold and silver mineralisation, or IOCG type base metal sulphide...

A very small area centred ~7.5 km north-northwest of Cleve has been explored for possible economic buried graphite mineralisation that might have formed within highly metamorphosed bedrock sediments located adjacent to large crustal penetrating...

A small area originally comprising three separate parts centred ~20 km north of Kimba on northern Eyre Peninsula has been explored for possible economic Middleback Range type stratabound BIF hosted iron ore, for shear-hosted or Menninnie Dam style...

The Telephone Dam lead-zinc-silver prospect is located in the north-eastern part of the now renewed Wilcherry Hill EL 4162. During the 1980s and 1990s, diamond, RC and RAB drilling done on this prospect by Aberfoyle Resources had identified a...

During the first year of the project (2006-2007), no work was undertaken on ELs 3731, 3421 or 3611. On EL 3317 Wilgerup, at the Wilgerup North Pod, Centrex undertook 2 phases of RC drilling totalling 135 holes for 12,829 m to provide information to...

During the 2014 project reporting year, licensee Adelaide Resources undertook a research and development phase surface-based biogeochemical and field portable X ray fluorescence (FPXRF) spectrometric sampling programme over its Baggy Green gold...

Exploration of mainly buried Proterozoic metasedimentary bedrock for possible Broken Hill type Pb-Zn-Ag mineralisation and for Olympic Dam type Cu-Au mineralisation has been performed over two separate areas located 25 km north-east and 50 km east of...

An area centred about 25 km west of Cleve has been explored for possible buried Athabasca Basin type unconformity - style uranium mineralisation, which it was thought might have formed in a fairly deep (> 200 m) geological setting where...

A number of tenements on central northern Eyre Peninsula are being explored by Adelaide Resources and its joint venture partner Newmont Mining for possible economic buried deposits of gold, copper and other base metals which may have formed in the...

During August 2006, Australasia Gold acquired a 45% interest in the historic abandoned Murninnie copper mine (Private Mine 156) and a surrounding small exploration licence (EL 3542), which are located ~30 km south-southwest of Whyalla. In July 2007,...

14 square km or 35% of the former area of EL 5931, and 3 square km or ~5.2% of the former area of EL 6379, have recently been relinquished due to their now perceived diminished prospectivity for buried base and precious metal mineralisation. Work...

An area covering the northern end of the Campoona Syncline is being explored for possible economic buried graphite formed within Palaeoproterozic schistose rocks, which may exist as northern extensions to the Central Campoona graphite resource as well...

Portions of two of three separate sub-blocks formerly comprising EL 5426, totalling 34 square km in area or ~25% of the licence's former extent, have been relinquished because of their now perceived diminished prospectivity for finding significant...

Portions of the western sub-block of EL 5426, totalling 27 square km in area or 27% of the licence's former extent, have been relinquished because of their now perceived diminished prospectivity for finding significant occurrences of uranium...

Exploration carried out primarily for possible economic uranium mineralisation within an area located approximately 40 km north-northeast of Port Lincoln started with reconnaissance aircore drilling during May 2007 (29 vertical holes for 590 m) to...

Investigator Resources (IVR) applied on 30/1/2015 to participate in the PACE Initiative Year 8 (2015) collaborative drilling grant program between industry and government being administered by DSD. The application for subsidy funds submitted by IVR...
