Mineral exploration recently undertaken over the now relinquished parts of a large tenement package in the Streaky Bay district has addressed the potential for finding Prominent Hill - style Proterozoic IOCG deposits, Phanerozoic iron-depleted gold...

In a search for postulated Tertiary heavy mineral sands marine placer deposits that may have been formed outside of the presently known north-eastern extent of such age sedimentary basins (i.e. along a proto Eucla Basin coastline existing within the...

The availability of satellite-borne ASTER data, which is intrinsically "geologically-tuned" over most of the Earth's land surface, has introduced the possibility of generating seamless geological map products that can usefully span across geological...

Exploration for trona and base metals was centred on the Marla region. Work included regional gravity and magnetic studies, acquisition of airborne magnetic and multi-channel radiometric data, with follow-up ground magnetic and gravity surveys,...

Reconnaissance geological mapping of existing, previously quite productive opal workings in the White Hill area of the Stuart Range 'Breakaway' country, 100 km south-east of Coober Pedy, was followed by exploratory and infill narrow-hole auger deep...

Exploration as part of a continuing regional search for possible diamondiferous kimberlites was undertaken 70 km west-northwest of Roxby Downs. Extensive sampling of current drainage lines in interdune swales, plus loam sampling in other...

Reconnaissance gravel and rock chip sampling were carried out in the Rockleigh - Eden Valley area, 50 km north-east of Adelaide, to further investigate a kimberlitic indicator minerals cluster defined on the licensee's adjoining Truro EL 1732. A few...

Exploration of the outcropping Proterozoic/Cambrian stratigraphic boundary in the Chace Range region of the southern Flinders Ranges, in one licence subarea taken out close to Hawker and another a short distance to the north-east, targeted possible...

Exploration for possible buried economic iron oxide - associated copper-gold (IOCG) mineral deposit targets within a large area of the central Gawler Ranges utilised existing and newly acquired regional gravity data to identify anomalous basement...

Two separate blocks of ground together covering 32 square km or ~36.4% of the former area of EL 5234 have been relinquished. No field work was done by Perilya on these blocks: the only activities were a desktop geological data compilation, and the...

Due to the licensee's competing commitments from others of its tenements in the exploration project area, the planned evaluation of geochemical prospects and Landsat Fe-alteration anomalies detected in shelf margin, deep-water carbonate sedimentary...

An area centred ~80 km north-west of Roxby Downs, on the western side of the contemporary Stuart Creek catchment, has been explored for possible Tertiary palaeo-lacustrine strandline deposits of detrital heavy mineral sands (HM). The targeted...

Exploration of an area in the eastern Musgrave Ranges located 70 km north-east of Marla, 10 km south of Mount Irwin Homestead, and 22 km east of the Stuart Highway, has sought to find possible Giles Complex - hosted magmatic nickel sulphide and...

Photo lineament analysis of an area centred on Mount Ogilvie, 30 km north-east of Leigh Creek, identified several targets considered to be potentially prospective for mineralisation. During a brief field visit seeking work clearance from native title...

To continue the assessment of the dimension stone and ornamental stone potential of granitic basement outcrops present on EL 2851, a 5-year Retention Lease, RL 116, was taken out on 7/2/2006 to cover 5.9 ha of the Middle Camp granite pluton. Several...

Exploration of an onshore area located immediately north of Murat Bay aimed to discover beach or shallow marine placer concentrations of zircon-rich heavy mineral sands, possibly formed within significant thicknesses of prospective Upper Tertiary...

EL 4278 was Southern Uranium's first mineral exploration foray into the northern Yorke Peninsula. The subject tenement was pegged in January 2009 in order to secure ground surrounding the northern reaches of the Pine Point Fault. This particular...

Exploration for economic near-surface deposits of gold and base metals, in an area of possibly hydrothermally-altered Hiltaba Suite Mesoproterozoic basement located approximately 20 km north of Kimba, has comprised an assessment of previous...

The subject adjacent licence areas, located approximately 55 km north-northeast of Coober Pedy, were the first tenements taken out for regional opal exploration under the provisions of the newly proclaimed South Australian Opal Mining Act 1997. The...

An area centred about 27 km north-west of Kimba was selected mainly to explore the basement for Menninnie Dam style base metal mineralisation, with the block's NW portion also being considered prospective for epithermal precious metal deposits of...
