An area centred ~10 km north of Bordertown, abutting the SA/Vic. state border, has been explored for possible economic heavy mineral (HM) deposits that may have formed in the southern Murray Basin as beach strandings within Loxton-Parilla Sand...

No field work - only an office based review of past exploration data, and Native Title land access negotiations, were conducted.

Iluka Resources is exploring for possible economic heavy mineral (HM) deposits that may have formed in the northern Murray Basin, with a strategy of targeting any mineralised Loxton-Parilla Sand formation sediments deposited during the Pliocene marine...

During Year 7 of the project, Goldfields did no more field work, but undertook office-based analyses of bedrock geochemical and geological data obtained in its 2012 aircore drilling campaign. Image processing and interpretation of the Canegrass...

A very small area centred ~10 km west of Renmark, and adjacent to the River Murray, has been explored for possible extensions to a recently discovered occurrence of high purity (>90% SiO2) semi-consolidated quartz sand that was found in September...

An area located immediately south of the Sturt Highway that connects between Swan Reach and Loxton, in the vicinity of the Woolpunda Irrigation Area, has been explored for possible buried accumulations of Tertiary heavy mineral sands which may have...

An area located in the northern SA Murray Mallee region, covering an extent of ground surrounding Loxton, has been explored for possible buried accumulations of Tertiary heavy mineral sands which may have formed in the sedimentary cover. In total, 816...

An area located in the north-eastern SA Murray Mallee region, and centred ~ 35 km south-southeast of Loxton, has been explored for possible buried accumulations of Tertiary heavy mineral sands which may have formed in the sedimentary cover. In total,...

A large area of the northern Murray Basin lying adjacent to the SA-NSW state border and also immediately north of the Danggali Wilderness Area of South Australia has been explored for possible economic buried marine placer deposits of Tertiary heavy...

An area located in the northern SA Murray Mallee region, and centred ~ 35 km south-west of Loxton, has been explored for possible buried accumulations of Tertiary heavy mineral sands which may have formed in the sedimentary cover. In total, 513 square...

The southern portions of both subject licences, comprising ~58.5% of the former area of EL 1356 and ~38% of the former area of EL 1357, have now been relinquished. Preliminary work consisted of collecting 9 surface grab samples of exposures of...

TARGET: Possible economic buried heavy mineral sand accumulations in raised beach strandlines within the upper Pliocene Parilla Sand, in the Moorook area south of Loxton and Waikerie. EXPLORATION: RAB drilling conducted along eight traverses (440...

TARGET: Possible economic heavy mineral sand deposits formed within the Pliocene Parilla Sand sequence along the north-western margin of the Murray Basin, both in the Canegrass area and the area east of Braemar Station. EXPLORATION: A consultant's...

Exploration of the Tertiary sediments on the north-western margin of the Murray Basin was undertaken as part of a regional search for possible economic sedimentary uranium deposits which might be derived from the outcropping Willyaman primary uranium...

TARGET: Possible economic heavy mineral sand accumulations in Pliocene raised beach strandlines developed along the south-western margin of the Murray Basin. EXPLORATION: Aerial photo interpretation, regional sedimentological studies, preliminary...

TARGET: Possible economic Pliocene or younger heavy mineral sand deposits in the Oakvale Station region of the north-western Murray Basin. EXPLORATION: Acquisition and processing of the major part of 33,000 line km of low-level airborne magnetic and...

Exploration for possible economic sedimentary uranium deposits in the Postmark area on the northern margin of the Murray Basin in South Australia comprised two airborne radiometric and scintillometric surveys together totalling approximately 1350...

Continued uranium exploration in this area of the northern Murray Basin was aimed at following up anomalous radioactivity encountered during previous work, and further delineating the nature of the Tertiary sand development and associated uranium...

TARGET: Possible Tertiary brown coal deposits near Sedan, in the western Murray Basin. EXPLORATION: Evaluation of data as obtained earlier by SADM/SADME drilling and more recently by subject licensees Thiess/CSR from rotary mud vertical open hole and...
