Agate or banded chert nodules weather out of the Cambrian Andamooka Limestone over an area of several square kilometres south of the Stuart Creek Opal field. In places the agate nodules are concentrated into extensive deflation lag gravels. Banding is...

42 rock specimens collected from the open cut at Burra were examined in order to comment on a report received from a consulting organisation. Despite a high degree of alteration evident in the samples, it was possible to distinguish microscopically,...

Sediments deposited in environment similar to present day inland drainage system.

The Worumba Anticline is a regional fold in the gradational zone between the Olary Arc and the broader folding of the central Flinders Ranges. The limbs of the anticline comprise complete upper Adelaidean successions, of which the Holowilena...

Byilkaoora 1, a stratigraphic well drilled in the northeastern part of the Officer Basin in South Australia, intersected aeolian and fluvial sandstones and mudstones overlying 224 m of fine-grained, dolomitic, calcareous and argillaceous sediments...

Flint occurs in 4 geological settings in the South-East - beds and dykes in the Gambier Limestone, bouldery conglomerate of the Bridgewater Formation, Holocene surface lag deposits and Holocene beach deposits. Pebbles from beach deposits between Cape...

Geological investigations have delineated a dolomite deposit extending at least 8 miles along the lower Neales River and exposed in its banks. An indicated resource of approximately 20 million tons is estimated to be present. It is considered that...

This dataset presents the observations and interpretive results of a project aiming to define and classify the complex suite of volcanic rocks found outcropping within the Gawler Ranges, as a corollary to regional geological mapping by the SA...

No field work was performed on the three subject licences during the period 2008-2010 inclusive. During 2010, Dominion Gold Operations undertook a desktop evaluation of the possible iron ore potential of the licences. During 2011, the licensee...

Two adjacent areas located immediately south and east of Woomera township were taken up to search for possible buried economic stratabound deposits of copper or other metals that may have formed in the Neoproterozoic and Mesoproterozoic cover sequence...

An area located immediately south of Woomera township has been acquired to search for possible buried economic stratabound deposits of copper or other metals that may have formed in the Neoproterozoic and Mesoproterozoic cover sequence of the Stuart...

This report presents over 500 thin section descriptions from cored Ouldburra Formation rocks lying within the PEL 23 area. The work forms an integral part of an on-going study of the sedimentology of the Ouldburra Formation and its possible...

A programme of ground magnetic surveying along 7 short traverses, plus air/mud drag-bit percussion drilling (5 vertical open holes totalling 509 m) was used to investigate a set of previously untested discrete aeromagnetic high anomalies covered by...

No sedimentary phosphorate has been found in commercial quantities in outcropping Cambrian rocks of the Flinders Ranges. Two types of minor occurrences were defined: - 1.Those in ferruginous glauconitic limestone (consisting of pelletal apatite)....

A preliminary investigation has been made of an area near Lake Woolpolool to assess its suitability as a source of concrete sand for the Chowilla Dam Project. The work included logging of sections along existing test excavations, and the drilling of...

The greenfields Ridgeback prospect, located about 5 km east-southeast of Bute on the northern Yorke Peninsula, is being explored by EL 4278 sole licensee Investigator Resources for possible Hillside deposit look-alike, Proterozoic basement-hosted...

Report briefly describes the geology, structural features and mineralisation present in both the diapir core and its rim rocks. Some observations about the extent and the origin of mineralisation are made, but the overall assessment is ongoing.

Adelaidean and Cambrian calcareous clastic rocks of the Angepena region were investigated for possible economic epigenetic base and precious metal mineralisation that may be related to syn-depositional faulting, as well as for stratiform and...
