Beneficiation of a bulk sample of monazite ore taken from Monazite Hill, from an orebody containing in excess of 5 million tons of ore with a monazite content of 5-6%, yielded poor results.

A second occurrence of outcropping monazite on the northern side of Myponga Hill, which is situated about 2 miles south of Myponga township, was inspected and advice given to a prospector concerning how best to further develop the existing small-scale...

This report covers the period from 4th September, 1956 to 19th November, 1956. During this time the author visited Atomic Energy and other establishments in the United Kingdom and made a brief visit to several ceramics firms in Germany. For...

10 tonnes SC2O3, 50 tonnes Y2O3 450 tonnes Ln2O3 from the slimes fraction can be treated by simple roast leach solvent extraction process. Recovery from the solid residue would not be economically competitive.

Reedy Lagoon Corp. (RLC) has continued to look for minerals other than diamond, operating as the manager of exploration work for base metals (mainly copper) and uranium that was undertaken by the Edward Creek Base Metal Joint Venture (“ECBMJV”) during...

Two adjacent portions of the subject licence, which are centred ~13 km south-southwest of Wilpena Pound National Park, have been surrendered following a downgrading of their perceived prospectivity for possible economic buried sediment-hosted oxide...

A small part of the subject licence, which lies ~25 km south of Wilpena Pound National Park, has been surrendered following a downgrading of its perceived prospectivity for possible economic buried sediment-hosted oxide and sulphide base metal...

An area located in the south and central Willouran Ranges, and centred ~45 km south-west of Marree, has been explored for possible buried economic Neoproterozoic stratiform copper mineralisation and inferred MVT, replacement or diapir-related other...

A small area located immediately west and north-west of Vivonne Bay on Kangaroo Island has been explored for possible economic occurrences of the lithium, tantalum and rare earth element (REE) - bearing accessory minerals lepidolite, zinnwaldite and...

Four portions of the subject licence, which lies adjacent to and south-west of Wilpena Pound National Park, have been surrendered following a downgrading of their perceived prospectivity for possible economic buried sediment-hosted oxide and sulphide...

An adjoining group of tenements located between Hawker and Wilpena Pound were taken up to explore for possible buried economic hydrothermal stratiform copper mineralisation which may have formed in sandy strata next to significant disruptive...

A small area considered prospective for pegmatite - hosted lithium mineralisation which could have formed within (?)Cambrian granites was taken up in the vicinity of known Li - anomalous pegmatites in the Umberatana Station area, ~80 km east of Leigh...

This ADI funded programme consisted of exploration drilling, geophysics programs and aboriginal employment relating to critical mineral exploration conducted over the Mt Craig Project in the Flinders Ranges of South Australia. ADI funded activities...

An area located 70 km north-east of Port Augusta has been explored for possible gold and rare earth occurrences in Lower Cambrian sediments near known base metal occurrences and / or zones of structural complexity. Work has consisted of a review of...

Evaluation of previous investigations, and geochemical sampling of an Ordovician granite intrusion in the Valley Bore area, particularly for pegmatitic tin-tantalum mineralization, has located only low order anomalous values. Some restricted...

A review of the gold and yttrium potential of the Willyama Inlier in the vicinity of Glenorchy station was undertaken. No exploration ensued.

TARGET: Gold and rare earths in Lower Cambrian sediments near known base metal occurrences and / or zones of structural complexity. EXPLORATION: Review of previous exploration for precious metals and reconnaissance rock chip and bulk leach gold stream...
