As part of a regional search for possible economic Mount Torrens - type stratiform base metal occurrences within the Kanmantoo Trough, the soil surrounding all outcropping pyritic Cambrian metasediment units within the licence area was geochemically...

Continuing exploration for economic stratiform copper occurrences in the Carrieton area has involved considerable further drilling (69 rotary drag bit holes for a total of 2864 m, 19 percussion / precollar cased holes for a total of 2381 m, and 6...

The Mount McTaggart prospect is located 15 miles south-west of Arkaroola Base Camp and 3 miles west of the Arkaroola-Balcanoona Road. A programme of ten rotary percussion holes totalling 3457 feet commenced on 11/10/1971 and was completed on...

Attempt a to separate fine pyrite from a wet scrubber effluent using hydraulic cyclones were not successful. Alternative methods are suggested.

The Bookartoo ochre mine, which lies 19 km south-east of Parachilna on the western face of the Heysen Range, for centuries has been a traditional and important source of quality ceremonial decorative pigment for the aborigines of central and eastern...

Flotation tests requested by Nairne Pyrites Ltd. were carried out using two different alkaline pH regulators and ammonium sulphate to activate depressed sulphides did not give results any better than those obtained normally. In some cases excess...

Nairne Pyrites Ltd reported that, when ore drawn from a recently developed area of the open cut was fed to the mill, a serious reduction in metallurgical efficiency occurred. A request was made that laboratory investigations be conducted to determine...

This report gives details of laboratory scale batch flotation tests carried out on pyritic ore supplied by Nairne pyrites Ltd. The work was carried out at Nairne, the object being to check the effect on flotation efficiency of variations in reagent...

Laboratory tests on two samples of pitchblende gravity concentrates received from South Alligator Uranium N.L. and assaying 50 percent U308, show that the material can be further upgraded to 70 percent U306 by removal of iron pyrite by flotation; the...

Tests carried out on ore supplied by Nairne Pyrites Limited showed that the Fortisol series reagents can be used to replace secondary butyl xanthate and/or Flotation Oil 66.

Sulfide and oxide trace element geochemical analyses have been conducted on more than 290 core chip samples collected from stored drill cores of 39 drillholes located across South Australia, as part of a collaborative project being conducted between...
