An area consisting of two separate sub-blocks located ~50 km north-east and east of Burra has been explored for possible economic buried marine placer heavy mineral (HM) sand deposits. The target strata comprised littoral marine sediments of the...

Two adjoining large areas in the southern Murraylands are being explored for possible economic buried Pliocene heavy mineral sands (HM) marine placer deposits. Both Mindarie type palaeobeach strandline HM occurrences and basin margin headland -...

An area covering the valley of the River Murray between Murray Bridge and Jervois has been explored for possible economic placer occurrences of heavy mineral (HM) sands that may have formed within the Late Tertiary Murray Basin shallow marine clastic...

An area centred on the township of Wynarka in the Murray Mallee, and which extended NW-SE along the northern side of the Padthaway Ridge, has been explored for possible economic placer occurrences of heavy mineral (HM) sands that may have formed...

No work performed during the subject period - Native Title land access negotiations in progress.

Exploration in now relinquished areas of the south-western Murray Basin for possible shallow economic Tertiary marine placer deposits of heavy mineral sands failed to encounter such occurrences. After a review of previous mineral sands exploration in...

Two adjoining areas centred ~ 75 km east of Tailem Bend have been explored for possible economic buried Tertiary marine placer heavy mineral sand (HMS) deposits that may have been formed within the Murray Basin sedimentary succession, as winnowed...

EL 4871, EL 4872, EL 5067, EL 5068 and EL 5182 (the Delamerian Group) were originally granted to Gold Fields Australasia Pty Ltd (Gold Fields) for sediment-hosted orogenic gold exploration. All of these tenements were preceded by an earlier tenement,...

An area centred ~ 60 km east of Tailem Bend has been explored for possible economic buried Tertiary marine placer heavy mineral sand (HMS) deposits that may have been formed within the Murray Basin sedimentary succession, as winnowed strandings that...

Tertiary Murray Basin cover sediments in an elongate area extending down the eastern side of the River Murray between Coolcha, Mannum and Murray Bridge have been explored for possible economic buried marine placer heavy mineral (HM) sands deposits. A...

A large area in the South-East, extending from Karoonda to Keith, was considered prospective for the accumulation of heavy mineral sand deposits. Exploration, carried out jointly on several contiguous Exploration Licences, comprised an initial review...

Possible heavy mineral sand marine placer deposits occurring in the Pliocene Loxton-Parilla Sands of the Murray Basin were the targets of exploration in an area extending immediately north and south of Bordertown, and across to the SA/Vic. State...

Digging of exploratory shallow costeans into lithified Tertiary arenaceous sedimentary units on the eastern bank of the River Murray, 2 km south-west of Taylorville, to search for inferred workable deposits of decorative fossiliferous sandstone, did...

An area centred ~10 km north of Bordertown, abutting the SA/Vic. state border, has been explored for possible economic heavy mineral (HM) deposits that may have formed in the southern Murray Basin as beach strandings within Loxton-Parilla Sand...

Heavy mineral marine placer deposits formed within the Pliocene Loxton-Parilla Sand of the Murray Basin were the targets of exploration in areas lying immediately north and south of Bordertown. Aircore drilling (86 holes, total 1903 m) was carried...

Under a farm-in agreement it made with Marathon Resources, the licensee of an area in the SA Murray Basin far northern sector located near the SA-NSW State border, 25 km south of Mutooroo Homestead, undertook exploratory drilling for possible economic...

During Year 7 of the project, Goldfields did no more field work, but undertook office-based analyses of bedrock geochemical and geological data obtained in its 2012 aircore drilling campaign. Image processing and interpretation of the Canegrass...

A small area located ~ 33 km north-east of Burra has been explored for possible economic buried marine placer heavy mineral (HM) sand deposits. The target strata comprised littoral marine sediments of the Pliocene aged Loxton - Parilla Sand (LPS), in...

An area covering the valley of the River Murray between Murray Bridge and Mannum, and also extending for a considerable distance eastwards into the Murray Mallee (across farmland on the counties of Younghusband, Burdett and Ettrick), has been explored...
