The possible untested economic base metal potential of a 10 mile long zone of airphoto-interpreted intense hydrothermal alteration of the Gawler Range Volcanics, which follows the Uno Fault near Margoon Dam, was investigated on the ground by sampling...

Ongoing exploration by the SA Department of Mines of the copper and molybdenum - mineralised Anabama Granite batholith, which is located 20 km south-east of Manna Hill, has involved detailed geological mapping, soil and rock chip sampling, and the...

Reports present drilling logs and laboratory testing analytical data for clay samples taken from the occurrences near Mount Sturt, aimed at finding material of commercial paper coating grade in economic quantities. No firm conclusions have been...

Investigations previously carried out by Pechiney had indicated the presence of substantial reserves of kaolin clays in the Kelly Tank and Bunora - Balumbah areas located near and to the south of Kimba, which might have a potential for paper-coating...

Regional geochemical surveys have been conducted by North Broken Hill over 490 square miles covering the northern and central Peake and Denison Ranges, within two new exploration licences which the company took up in 1966 after a private prospector...

Reconnaissance mapping and sampling of an area of poorly exposed Precambrian crystalline basement north of Kingoonya has shown that the regional geology is dominated by intensely folded, discontinuously outcropping banded iron formations that are...

Examination of potentially economic stratiform copper mineralisation recorded in the Paratoo area, located approximately 60 km north-east of Peterborough, has found that it occurs within Adelaidean shales and siltstones over the apical hinge zone of a...

Outcropping small exposures of granitic rocks, found in nine isolated locations within and lying just to the east of the subject licence, were examined for their potential to host possible economic occurrences of molybdenum and tungsten mineralisation...

SML 434 was taken out to enable making a re-assessment of the economic potential of exposed molybdenite-scheelite mineralisation first identified along the southern shores of Spilsby Island during 1963. There, outcropping equigranular Lower...

Exploration for possible Precambrian hydrothermal vein style or unconformity type uranium deposits and for any other economic metalliferous minerals was carried out over several small inliers of Early Proterozoic rocks that crop out poorly through...

Field examination of tuffaceous interbeds to the Billy Creek Formation, in an area located within the Wirrealpa Syncline where minor secondary copper mineralisation had been reported, suggested that the Middle Cambrian strata seen there hold no...

Intensive stream and loam sampling over a broad area north of Burra and east of Hiles Lagoon has located numerous kimberlite bodies occurring either as diatremes or dykes. No diamonds were found in bulk samples taken from these kimberlites, or from...

Reconnaissance and follow-up stream sediment sampling and bank soil sampling carried out across an area of rugged terrain surrounding Wooltana Homestead, within which lie historical small mine workings and minor surface occurrences of secondary copper...

Ongoing exploration for stratabound copper deposits in the vicinity of abandoned copper workings in the Olary district comprised three rounds of increasingly detailed geochemical rock chip sampling surveys, plus geological mapping, petrology and...

Two areas located north-east of Kingston (SE) were taken up to explore for shallowly covered igneous rock bodies which might contain economic hydrothermal / metasomatic base metal mineralisation similar to that recently found on Spilsby Island in...

Exploration for possible economic stratabound / stratiform copper deposits in an area of the central Olary Province has targeted existing prospects where recent previous work had only addressed the uranium potential. Inco's investigation of...

Rotary drilling and geophysical logging of 27 holes totalling 1899.5 m were completed in an area located 25-30 km south-east of Lake Frome. Anomalous radioactivity is restricted to the Lower Tertiary Eyre Formation equivalent, or basement rocks....
