Exploration for possible Early Proterozoic stratiform base metal Pb-Zn-Ag and Cu-Au deposits associated with banded iron formation sediments in the Waddikee - Buckleboo area comprised a detailed review of previous mineral exploration data from the...

Relinquished portions of an exploration tenement lying south-west of Lake Phillipson yielded no anomalous geochemical results (max. 5 ppb Au) from regional calcrete sampling on a 1.6 km-spaced grid, and contained no identified areas of high priority...

Interpretation of available SADME/BMR airborne magnetic survey data, and subsequent ground magnetic and gravity surveys to define five targets, were conducted in the area between Watson Siding and Ooldea, prior to drilling two rotary percussion holes...

Exploration was undertaken north north-east of Olary for possible near-surface gold associated with Early Proterozoic quartz - magnetite - pyrite lode horizons, and with Adelaidean fluvial tillites and siltstones of the Umberatana Group. It included...

Exploration for possible fault-related epigenetic lead-zinc deposits formed in calcareous rocks outcropping along the Mount John - Arrowie fault system, to the south-east of the Moro mine, has included extensive stream sediment and rock chip sampling...

The Owen district is an uplifted fault block, halfway in elevation between the St Vincent Basin and the Mt Lofty Ranges. It is bounded on the west by the Redbanks-Owen Fault and in the east by the Alma Range Fault. This shallow Tertiary basin was...

An office-based prospectivity review only has been performed on the relinquished portions of the licence, while on-ground activities have concentrated on the Aurora Tank and Mars prospects located within the retained acreage.

Exploration for possible buried stratiform Pb-Zn-Ag deposits of the Aggeneys / Gamsberg and Broken Hill type, associated with magnetitic and haematitic quartzites within the Early Proterozoic Hutchison Group, has included acquiring ground magnetic...

In gold and base metal exploration carried out in an area located approximately 50 km south-east of Oodnadatta, no significant gold or other trace metal values were obtained from surface geochemical sampling of the basal conglomerate unit of the...

Exploration in the Curramulka and Pine Point areas on east-central Yorke Peninsula targeted Olympic Dam style iron oxide - associated copper-gold (IOCG) deposits related through contact metasomatism to Hiltaba Suite equivalent granites. A gravity...

In a search for possible economic Palaeoproterozoic syngenetic/stratiform base metals within an area located just north of Cleve on central Eyre Peninsula, geological mapping (1:20,000 scale) and rock chip sampling was carried out over poor exposures...

No significant gold or copper values were returned in assays of 13 calcrete samples taken from a 38 square km area located 50 km north-east of Tarcoola, which was relinquished in October 1996. Data read recently by Haines Surveys from 13 new gravity...

Reconnaissance gravel and rock chip sampling were carried out in the Rockleigh - Eden Valley area, 50 km north-east of Adelaide, to further investigate a kimberlitic indicator minerals cluster defined on the licensee's adjoining Truro EL 1732. A few...

An area covering the western end of the historic Anabama copper prospect in the Benda Range, south-west of Manna Hill, has been explored for possible buried economic, epithermal/hydrothermal structurally controlled copper-gold mineralisation that may...

Two separate blocks of ground together covering 32 square km or ~36.4% of the former area of EL 5234 have been relinquished. No field work was done by Perilya on these blocks: the only activities were a desktop geological data compilation, and the...

An area centred on the hamlet of Green Patch, located ~10 km north-west of Port Lincoln, was taken up to appraise the iron ore potential of known near surface BIF magnetite mineralisation occurring at the Greenpatch (sic) prospect that had been...

EL 3089 licensee Stellar Resources Ltd was granted SA Government PACE Initiative Year 2 funding for a drillhole programme to test the source of the intense Coolybring magnetic anomaly situated 9 km north-east of Tarcoola, which is inferred to be a...

Exploration for possible buried Ernest Henry or Olympic Dam style copper-gold mineralisation in the Nuckulla Hill area, 120 km north-east of Ceduna, did not progress during the first two years of tenure due to uncertainties in selecting a new remote...

To continue the assessment of the dimension stone and ornamental stone potential of granitic basement outcrops present on EL 2851, a 5-year Retention Lease, RL 116, was taken out on 7/2/2006 to cover 5.9 ha of the Middle Camp granite pluton. Several...

An area comprising two separate sub-blocks centred ~115 km south-southeast of Coober Pedy and located to the west of the Stuart Highway is being explored for Archaean to Palaeoproterozoic banded iron formation iron ore mineralisation of economic...
