Exploration for possible economic stratabound gold in the basal Tarcowie Siltstone that was conducted within the Paratoo Anticline east of Yunta comprised geochemical sampling (70 stream sediment samples, plus 25 rock chip samples). Anomalous copper,...

An area centred approximately 70 km north-east of Hawker has been explored by E-Z for possible economic stratabound lead-zinc deposits. The company's evaluation of the results of base metal exploration carried out previously in the Flinders Ranges had...

In a search for possible economic stratiform copper mineralisation formed at the base of the Neoproterozoic Tapley Hill Formation, no significant anomalies were located during limited follow-up sampling of elevated Cu reported from previous stream...

Possible intrusive Proterozoic salt bodies beneath the Blinman, Upalinna, Martins Well, Mt Hemming, Willippa and Bibliando Domes were investigated by field mapping, including the construction of measured outcrop stratigraphic sections, seismic...

Relevant older data from a sequence of exploration programs in the Mount Painter Province, undertaken on Special Mining Leases since 1965, have been previously released. Exploration for possible economic buried epithermal/hydrothermal and stratabound...

Field investigations were undertaken of reported occurrences of the rare strontium-bearing sulphate mineral celestite within lacustrine chemical sediments deposited along the western and southern margins of Lakes Frome, Callabonna and Blanche. The...

In an area located approximately 7 to 20 miles north of Orroroo, a number of previously worked old small barite and copper prospects were examined in detail, and recommendations were made for additional work to be done, e.g. bulldozer trenching, soil...

Numerous small, occasionally high grade occurrences of talc and asbestiform amphibole minerals, barite, vermiculite and sodic feldspar were discovered by prospecting across a wide, often rugged hilly area lying to the north-west of Arkaroola...

Preliminary investigations of the potential of Marionoan and Sturtian metasediments to host economic barite deposits in an area of probable diapirism located between the Carrieton and Worumba diapirs were not encouraging, owing to the apparent lack of...

Exploration undertaken in an area of practically no outcrop that is situated north and north-west of the Ediacara Range, on the eastern side of Lake Torrens, has aimed primarily at investigating the mineral potential of a large, low amplitude...

Exploration for possible hydrothermal/stratabound replacement-type base metal deposits in an area located 28 miles north-east of Hawker, adjacent to the northern margin of the Worumba Diapir, has consisted of photogeological mapping of structures...

The potential for finding remnant economic stratiform gold mineralisation in the Mannahill Gold Field was investigated by examining the old surface and underground mine workings, and the best-developed ore shoots were tested by drilling 25 vertical...

Minor narrow and discontinuous exposed seams of barite mineralisation were found by following up three stream sediment barium geochemical anomalies detected in the Mount Brown Creek area.

Diapiric faults disrupting upper Adelaidean strata in an area centred 8 miles north of Hawker were examined to find out whether economic barite vein occurrences might have formed within them. No outcropping barite or any other significant...

Inspection of an extensively faulted domal area within upper Adelaidean metasediments east and south-east of Martins Well Homestead sought to find barite deposits of sufficiently high grade and quantity to resemble those of the Oraparinna mine area,...

Prompted by records of anomalous radioactivity being detected at old copper workings in the Hawker - Willochra region of the Flinders Ranges, the licensees decided to investigate the Arkaba Diapir for possible uranium mineralisation that might be...

Exploration of a fairly large diapir located near Carrieton was undertaken using geochemical methods to seek possible barite occurrences similar to those associated with other diapirs in the region, e.g. Oraparinna and Oladdie, as well as addressing...
