Mafic and ultramafic rocks of the Proterozoic Giles Complex, which have intruded highly metamorphosed basement units of the Musgrave Block in an area 380 km WNW of Marla, were considered to have potential to host massive Ni sulphide mineralisation,...

Ernest Henry / Olympic Dam style Cu-Au mineralisation hosted by Mesoproterozoic Gawler Range Volcanics and Hiltaba Suite granites was the target of exploration in an area situated immediately south of Lake Everard. Regional calcrete, soil, rock chip...

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...

No new work - description of regional geology of project area only.

Groundwater sampling, aeromagnetic interpretation, shallow auger sampling and isotope studies were carried out over an area 30 km northeast of Elliston. Heavy mineral concentrates from composite auger samples contained zircon, galena and sphalerite,...

Interpretation of historical drilling data indicates that an area of the Frome Embayment located 50 km east of Lake Frome is shallowly underlain by basement, and so is unlikely to contain significant palaeochannels hosting sedimentary uranium.

No new work - licence farmout attempted without success. Some brief background technical documentation was tendered.

Exploration targets were gold and base metals in Adelaidean and basement rocks, 20 km southwest of Mount Gunson. Regional and infill calcrete sampling did not reveal any areas worthy of follow up, and geophysical interpretation indicated depths to...

Exploration for buried sedimentary uranium occurrences which might be amenable to extraction by in-situ leach mining was carried out on four contiguous ELs located immediately south and east of Lake Frome. Compilation of previous drilling data showed...

Water well monitoring data from wells on Aboriginal lands (Pitjantjatjara, Yalata and Nepabunna) are summarised for the period April to October 2000. Equipment failure was high, with faults recorded at 17 wells, particularly of the 2100P standing...

Reconnaissance calcrete sampling of an area extending from 15 km east to north-east of Wudinna did not reveal any geochemical anomalies worthy of infill sampling.

An aeromagnetic survey was followed by soil and calcrete sampling in the Poochera - Wirulla area, over possible southerly extensions to the Yarlbrinda Shear Zone. Only slightly elevated Au and Cu values were returned, and follow-up sampling in one...

Infill aeromagnetic and ground gravity surveys undertaken approximately 50 km west of Port Augusta were followed by an IP survey and lag sampling. Anomalous Cu and Au values were returned, but only a minimal IP response was recorded. Regolith mapping...

Gold and base metal mineralisation hosted by Archaean gneisses of the Mulgathing Complex and Proterozoic Hiltaba Suite granites was the target of exploration in an area 100 km west of Tarcoola. Regional calcrete sampling on a nominal 1 km grid...

Calcrete sampling over aeromagnetic targets within the Fowler Shear Zone was undertaken, to locate evidence of possible Cu-Au mineralisation developed during emplacement of Hiltaba Suite granites south and south-west of Wynbring. Weakly anomalous Au...

A significant combined thickness of Late Proterozoic Pandurra Formation, Jurassic Algebuckina Sandstone and Cainozoic sediments overlies prospective Middle Proterozoic basement 70 km north of Tarcoola. Several gold anomalies were returned from...

In a search for buried Olympic Dam type iron oxide-hosted Cu-Au deposits, no new work was performed due to native title issues - activity consisted of the compilation and interpretation of open file exploration data and regional geological and...

Exploration for sedimentary uranium in Tertiary palaeochannels was carried out on four partly contiguous licences located immediately south and east of Lake Frome. Research of historic data, including an evaluation of the results from 309 existing...

Aeromagnetic infill surveying was carried out over part of the Yalata Intrusive Complex, which is characterised by exhibiting an intense gravity high, contains evidence of cumulate layering, and lies in proximity to interpreted ultramafic intrusives...
