Exploration was undertaken for Telfer - style stratabound gold at the contact between the Tapley Hill Formation and the Tarcowie Siltstone, and for placer type gold in glacial sequences such as the Appila Tillite and Wilyerpa Formation (94 stream...

Exploration for possible diapir-related, discordant and stratabound sediment-hosted base and precious metals in an area located 32 km east-northeast of Cradock targeted an anomalous structural feature within Adelaidean metasediments, namely, a...

Possible intrusive Proterozoic salt bodies beneath the Blinman, Upalinna, Martins Well, Mt Hemming, Willippa and Bibliando Domes were investigated by field mapping, including the construction of measured outcrop stratigraphic sections, seismic...

Exploration over the now surrendered ground, which had been successively incorporated within ELs 301, 513 and 769, was initially directed at a search for stratabound base metal deposits which might exist within the flat-lying Neoproterozoic and...

Areas around Woomera and extending to the north, to around 30 km west of Olympic Dam, were explored for concealed base metal deposits of Olympic Dam - type. Trace stratabound lead and zinc mineralisation (sphalerite and galena - few thousand ppm) had...

Relevant older data from a sequence of exploration programs in the Mount Painter Province, undertaken on Special Mining Leases since 1965, have been previously released. Exploration for possible economic buried epithermal/hydrothermal and stratabound...

Exploration for possible economic secondary deposits of copper, uranium and gold that might be associated with known iron-rich sediments deposited at or near the base of the Sturtian sedimentary sequence, within an area extending from 60-120 km north...

Exploration of an area located 30 km south-west of Port Augusta initially sought possible Olympic Dam style iron oxide-hosted copper-gold deposits within concealed Mesoproterozoic basement, plus Mount Gunson style stratabound copper in the overlying...

No new work. Report describes the results of a SAMREF database literature search for available geological information pertaining to the Kapunda mine, with a consultant's overview of the geological setting and exploration potential for finding related...

A manganese-rich Adelaidean stratigraphic unit outcropping along the western flank of the Mount Remarkable Range, which returned 1.8% Co, 1.5% Cu and 1.0% Zn in a grab sample from the Willowie Cobalt prospect, warrants further work because it is...

Detailed geological mapping and rock chip geochemical sampling of inferred Telfer style gold prospects in the Waukaringa area, 40 km north-northwest of Yunta, have identified anomalous gold in silicified sandstones, quartzites and quartz veins, as...

The exploration target for stratabound base metals in the Red Lake area, which lies just to the east of Pernatty Lagoon and abuts the Arcoona Plateau, was the top of Pandurra Formation erosional surface. Percussion (17 holes totalling 2619 m) and...

Gold/copper exploration being undertaken north-west of Yunta has comprised rock chip geochemical sampling and BLEG stream sediment sampling. No significant gold anomalies were identified from the drainage bulk samples. High assay values of up to 8.8...

In an area located approximately 7 to 20 miles north of Orroroo, a number of previously worked old small barite and copper prospects were examined in detail, and recommendations were made for additional work to be done, e.g. bulldozer trenching, soil...

During exploration for possible economic stratabound base metal sulphides within the Upper Proterozoic Tindelpina Shale Member, 80 km east of Hawker, 647 samples of weathered calcareous black shale were collected along a 90 km strike distance as part...

TARGET: Disseminated low grade, large tonnage deposits of copper, lead and zinc mineralisation formed in Adelaidean metasediments overlying Mesoproterozoic igneous rocks. EXPLORATION: 1:12,000 and 1:4,800 scale geological mapping, rock chip, soil and...

Utah Development Co. entered into a joint venture exploration programme with Northland Minerals Ltd in the Kapunda area of South Australia that has lasted from 29 May 1974 to 14 February 1978. Utah has managed this programme, which sought stratiform...

An exploration licence area covering 120 square miles in the vicinity of the Eurelia Anticline was taken up by Utah Development to search for possible economic Zambian Copperbelt-style stratiform copper deposits within upper Adelaidean metasedimentary...
