A licence area covering the flat alluvial Paralana Plains extending out eastwards from the northern Flinders Ranges was taken up by the the consortium of Exoil NL, Petromin NL and Transoil NL to explore for possible economic buried occurrences of...

The Stage 1 feasibility study carried out during February-May, 1973 has included regional groundwater studies, pumping tests, logging and laboratory tests on drill cores, slope stability analyses, preliminary design of pit slopes and dewatering...

Development of the Prominent Hill copper-gold deposit in the Mount Woods region will require an adequate source of water to support planned mining and ore processing operations, currently estimated to involve at least 6 million tonnes of ore per year....

Exploration Licence 2704 covering 23 square km surrounding the historic abandoned Mutooroo copper mine, located ~55 km east of Olary, was granted to Havilah Resources NL so that the company could assess the economic potential of the remaining sulphide...

The continuation during 2010 of exploration of the Palaeoproterozoic bedrock in a small area located 60 km west-northwest of Cowell has mainly consisted of the conduct of three shallow drilling campaigns and the examination and analysis of downhole...

Three small adjacent licence sub-blocks, that together cover ~1.5 square km of inferred prospective brownfields ground immediately surrounding Mining Lease ML 5776 held over the former Kanmantoo open pit copper mine (which peripheral ground is herein...

Exploration Licence 3096 “Brooker” covering an area of 682 square km lies east of Elliston on the Eyre Peninsula in South Australia. It is one of three adjacent tenements that form the “Brimpton Lake Project”; the other two are EL 2662 (initially...

An area of the western Yorke Peninsula, comprising three separate sub-blocks, was taken up to explore for possible economic buried IOCG-U deposits similar to those at Hillside (located 25 km to the east of sub-block 'B'), Olympic Dam, Prominent Hill...

EL 4278 was Southern Uranium's first mineral exploration foray into the northern Yorke Peninsula. The subject tenement was pegged in January 2009 in order to secure ground surrounding the northern reaches of the Pine Point Fault. This particular...

Under a new strategic focus, three licence areas covering three Early Permian buried coal deposits located at Wintinna, Westfield and Murloocoppie in the northern part of the Arckaringa Basin, ~120 km north of Coober Pedy, have been evaluated both for...

Exploration Licenses 1947 (Druid Range) and 1948 (Kanyaka) are in the western central part of the Proterozoic to Cambrian Adelaide Geosyncline approximately 70 – 110 km north-east of Port Augusta, close to the town of Hawker. In a regional context,...
