During 1970 and 1971, Indian Pacific Mining and Exploration explored for gold and tin over a small lease that extended northwards from the northern part of the Glenloth Goldfield. Work included a field reconnaissance followed by the assaying of seven...

Regional stream sediment sampling conducted over an area of historically prospective ?Archaean, Proterozoic and Palaeozoic rocks in the Mount Painter - Mount Babbage - Mount Livingstone - Yudnamutana area did not reveal any base or precious metal...

An intersection of about 5 feet of massive sulphides (85% pyrite, 15% chalcopyrite) in a vertical water bore at Giants Head, at or near the contact of brecciated diapiric sediments (Wywyana Formation?) and leucocratic granite, was investigated....

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...

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...

TARGET: The initial targets sought by INCO were nickel and base metal sulphides possibly formed in ultramafic igneous rocks of the Mid-Proterozoic Giles Complex. In the later stages of investigation, secondary nickel occurrences in lateritic ochres...

Geological investigations undertaken within SML 520 involved reconnaissance 1:50,000 scale geological mapping accompanied by stream sediment and rock chip sampling. Most attention was directed to known Lower Palaeozoic granitic rocks and their...

Ongoing nickel exploration work at the eastern end of the Musgrave Ranges, just south of the SA-NT border, has consisted of the ground-truthing of aerial magnetic anomalies through measurement of magnetic susceptibilities, the traversing of various...

Possible hydrothermally - deposited native mercury metal associated with the Mount John Fault zone, perhaps in a quartz splinter vein setting similar to that of the mercury occurrence previously found nearby at the Moro mine, plus elsewhere, economic...

As part of a regional geochemical survey for signatures of stratiform base metal deposits, 208 stream sediment samples were collected along the eastern flank of the Mount Deception Range, over the lower part of the Late Proterozoic Bunyeroo Formation....

Ongoing base metal exploration in the Cleve district of eastern Eyre Peninsula has comprised detailed regional mapping, extensive geochemical and petrological sampling, and percussion drilling of selected geochemical anomalies. Assay results indicate...

Possible economic buried Tertiary sedimentary uranium, plus any Palaeoproterozoic basement - hosted base metal deposits, were targeted in the region to the west of Cockburn by conducting an airborne radiometric survey (700 line miles at 0.5-1 mile...

Detailed ground checking of radiometric anomalies recovered from a semi-regional aerial geophysical survey flown in August 1969 over the Plumbago area, plotted down to a scale of 1:25,000, did not disclose any significant radioactive mineral deposits...

In a search for possible buried sedimentary uranium mineralisation which may have been precipitated adjacent to the northern margin of the Murray Basin in SA, following long term palaeodrainage transport of the dissolved weathering products of primary...

Detailed, 1:1200 scale geological mapping was carried out over the 126 square mile Tarcoola Goldfield, but it excluded the old mine workings and focussed instead on five areas which Abadon thought might have potential for discovering downfaulted...

1069 square km or ~79.5% of the originally granted area of EL 218 have been relinquished to comply with the licence conditions previously agreed to with SADM for renewing of tenure at the expiry of the company's former EL 67. Work undertaken on the...

Regional stream sediment and rock chip geochemical sampling of an area extending from 15 km north-east to south-east of Angaston was undertaken to search primarily for stratabound Mississippi Valley style Pb-Zn mineralisation in lower Cambrian Hawker...

Investigations of the copper potential of a series of folded and faulted, Carpentarian age, albite / actinolite / quartz / magnetite altered fine-grained metasediments exposed in the vicinity of Cathedral Rock on Old Boolcoomata Station commenced...
