Seven cable tool holes have been drilled to investigate foundation conditions for new silos at the Port Pirie Grain Terminal. The drilling penetrated a succession of unconsolidated sediments which showed some lateral variation. From 0 to 12 metres...

An investigation has been carried out at a possible site for the proposed Northern Power Station. Its purpose has been to provide data for an Environmental Impact Statement. The work has involved geological mapping with drilling and sampling, seismic...

The PORT AUGUSTA 1:250,000 mapsheet area covers the north-eastern part of the Eyre Peninsula, the northern Spencer Gulf and the south-western Flinders Ranges, and extends from latitude 32°00'S to 33°00'S and longitude 136°30'S to 138°00'S. The main...

This tour is concerned with aspects of the soils, geology, landforms, clays and mining on Yorke Peninsula, and likewise for the northern Adelaide Plains which are separated from the Peninsula by Gulf St Vincent. Both of these regions are among the...

The revised digital geology map of the Cultana 1:100 000 map sheet and accompanying geological descriptions in this report are the first components of the 2nd edition PORT AUGUSTA 1:250 000 map sheet to be completed. The subject map sheet occupies the...

During a dredging trial conducted by the licensee in the Gulf on 9-10/11/1976, using the dredging vessel "Andrew Wilson" owned by the SA Board of Marine and Harbours, some 200 tonnes of shell were recovered from the open seabed in seven locations...

Hallett Cove is one of South Australia’s foremost natural science treasures. Exposed examples for prime geological concepts of superposition of strata, depositional unconformities (representing time breaks), and folding and faulting of sedimentary...

Cultana is located on parts of the north-eastern Eyre Peninsula, northern Spencer Gulf and south-western Flinders Ranges, and is underlain by rocks of the Mesoarchaean-Mesoproterozoic Gawler Craton, the Neoproterozoic Adelaide Geosyncline, Torrens...

Reports describe an offshore sampling survey conducted of the topmost seabed sediments in a portion of Gulf St Vincent, over six days (non-consecutive) during December 1974 and January 1975. The aim was to map the occurrence and estimate the volume of...

TARGET: Heavy minerals in beach sands and dunes. EXPLORATION: Hand auger drilling, heavy mineral analysis and mineralogy. RESULTS: A number of zircon, rutile and kyanite - bearing sand lenses were identified within the beach facies, but they are...

Laboratory beneficiation feasibility tests have been conducted on a 250 lb bulk sample of known heavy mineral - bearing beach sands which were taken from nearshore dunes located along the northern coastline of Kangaroo Island at Nepean Bay. It was...

Natural wetlands have an extraordinary capacity to accumulate sediments and pollutants discharged to coastal waters. A knowledge of the physical and biogeochemical processes that occur in these environments is a necessary precursor for predicting and...

Proterozoic basement outcrops consist of syn and post- Kimban Orogeny granitoids, volcanics and basic dykes. Their rock type geochronology, field relationships and regional correlation are reported. Previous economic mineral investigations, plus...
