Ground magnetic and gravity surveys were carried out over a south - southeast trending aeromagnetic feature located 20 km south-east of Naracoorte. It was concluded that drilling to depths of around 150 m would be required to test for the possible...

A rotary percussion drilling programme (8 vertical holes for a total penetration of 1920 feet) was undertaken at Netley Hill to look for economic copper and molbdenum mineralisation in a greisen (hydrothermally altered granite) body which has an...

Poorly described Lower Carpentarian basement ?basic igneous rocks, occurring over an area of approximately 65 square miles situated 3 to 8 miles east and north-east of Iron Knob, were investigated by BHP to establish their exact nature and to assess...

The source of anomalous lead and zinc in the Radford Creek area was traced to a ferruginous outcrop of Parachilna Formation limestone that is associated with a prominent shear and also lies near the contact with the Wilkawillina Limestone. Samples of...

Continuation by Aquitaine of its regional appraisal of the mineral potential in the Cambrian carbonate sequence on northern Yorke Peninsula, has recently involved them in acquiring and interpreting ground gravity and magnetic surveys, completing a...

Resumed exploration for economic stratiform base metal deposits within basal Cambrian and upper Adelaidean metasediments in the area of the Arden and Ragless synclines, 20 km north of Quorn, concentrated on geochemical prospecting and detailed, 1:2000...

The Third Plain zinc silicate (willemite) deposit, located 14 miles south-east of Blinman, has been newly assessed by North Flinders Mines for its economic potential. Originally discovered by Kennecott Explorations in late 1966, and evaluated by them...

In the Terowie - Whyte Yarcowie district, and in other nearby areas to the east and south-east, ongoing reconnaissance/infill stream sediment and bulk sampling of highland areas, plus detailed grid-based loam sampling of alluvium on lower-lying arid...

Following an evaluation of existing subsurface data, 9 vertical percussion holes totalling 670 m were drilled to test discrete gravity anomalies in the Mount Woods area, in a search for Olympic Dam type mineralisation. The holes encountered...

Orientation and regional reconnaissance stream sediment geochemical surveying (1438 samples) of early Marinoan shallow marine carbonate strata, carried out over a wide area surrounding the historic Billy Springs lead-zinc mine, failed to locate any...

Continuing exploration of the geochemically anomalous (35-210 ppm Ni) Lower Proterozoic basement rocks previously identified by Kennecott at Blackfellow Hill has consisted of first laying out a 10,000' x 7200' prospect grid, before conducting soil...

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...

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...

In a continuation of uranium exploration work (part of the Frome Project) begun by E-Z and Newmont on their former SML 217, a surface radiometric anomaly previously identified at the Mount John prospect by ground scintillometer prospecting and shallow...
