The Copper King orebody, located approximately 10 miles north-northeast of Beltana township, is a massive deposit of iron carbonate, the upper portion of which has been altered by oxidation and hydration to oxides of iron. The deposit was worked...

High grade limestones which outcrop over a distance of some 13 miles along the front of the Flinders Ranges east of Brachina and Parachilna were sampled during the period 5th December 1963 to 16th December 1963 with the assistance of T. Amtmania, W.V....

Fractured rock aquifers were investigated by drilling of 7 vertical holes and 2 angle holes in the Windy Creek area. 1 well was completed as production well with an airlift yield of 12 L/s. The steeply dipping fractured sandstone aquifer responds as a...

Agate or banded chert nodules weather out of the Cambrian Andamooka Limestone over an area of several square kilometres south of the Stuart Creek Opal field. In places the agate nodules are concentrated into extensive deflation lag gravels. Banding is...

8 of 13 holes were successful water wells.

This paper describes the type fossil occurrences, their present-day geological setting and, as deduced from properties of the host sediments, their interpreted palaeogeographic locations and palaeoenvironmental depositional facies which probably...

An evaluation of the base metal potential of the greater Beltana 'diapiric' complex was undertaken by MIM via field mapping, soil geochemical surveys and limited shallow rotary percussion drilling at historic surface workings on small showings of...

Exploration and evaluation of two large, outcropping willemite zinc orebodies, previously discovered in the Puttapa area by other parties, has been commenced under tenure of Mineral Claim 5092 newly taken up by SML 153 licensee Electrolytic Zinc Co....

Appraisal of the Beltana zinc deposit continued during the current licence period, principally by diamond drilling (6 holes, total 2570 feet) aimed at delineating blind extensions to the main orebody on its southern side. The drilling was very...

A group of jointly reported tenements in the northern Flinders Ranges region is being explored for economic base metal mineralisation that might have formed within Late Proterozoic to Middle Cambrian continental rift margin sediments, probably with...

During the first year of its evaluation of the Beltana and Aroona mining properties on which it has taken out an option, Perilya undertook the following intensive work programme aimed at locating buried extensions and repetitions of the willemite...

Contains a subset of data compiled by the licensee on the subject of commercial use of coloured iron oxides, plus some progress reports dealing with an assessment of red dolomitic marble from the Ajax Limestone unit for its potential use as an...

The Aristotle deposit Retention Lease (RL 5) is located ~8 km south-east of the town of Leigh Creek, and covers 16.8 hectares. The Moolooloo deposit Retention Lease (RL 6) is located ~7.5 km south-east of the town of Leigh Creek, and covers 19.5...

Renewed exploration by E-Z of the area surrounding the Beltana zinc mine has investigated the possibility for finding deep, unweathered Cambrian or Proterozoic carbonate-hosted zinc-lead sulphide mineralisation. It was considered that this target had...

A partial surrender of 64 square km in 2 blocks representing 13% of the total tenement was undertaken at the renewal of the lease. During licence Year 21 (to 23/11/2014), exploration attention returned to the Red Range prospect in the south of the...

Geological mapping, stream sediment, soil, and rock chip were sampling were carried out in the Red Range area, over and adjacent to the Beltana Diapir and Cambrian sediments. 1 percussion drill hole (56 metres) showed negative results.

TARGET: Possible undiscovered willemite mineralisation near the historic Beltana zinc mine. EXPLORATION: A detailed gravity survey of the mine area, and follow-up percussion drilling (2 holes totalling 150 metres) of the largest and highest magnitude...
