This report presents the results of geochronology from projects completed during 2011 and 2012, which addressed rock samples collected from a number of different geological provinces within South Australia. The Musgrave Province in northern South...

This report book contains a compilation of zircon and monazite U-Pb geochronological data, plus geochemical data, that are derived from the Fowler Domain of the Gawler Craton. The related study has been undertaken as part of the Australian Research...

New electron microprobe monazite geochronological constraints on the timing of Proterozoic granulite facies metamorphism from the western Gawler Craton are presented. Monazite grain geochronological data obtained from samples of basement rocks...

An airborne magnetic survey acquired by the grant licensee over the Lameroo district during August 1997 generated a number of shallow-source anomalies which suggested that there was fair potential for discovering buried Tertiary palaeocoastal...

In September 1975 the South Australian Department of Mines accepted a proposal from Amdel Ltd to purchase and set up some microthermometry apparatus, in order to commence fluid inclusion studies of selected rock types and minerals in South Australia....

Exploration for possible ancient beach strandline heavy mineral sand placer deposits formed within the Pleistocene Bridgewater Formation has been undertaken in the State's South-East region. This pioneering on-ground work came about after several...

Geochronology enables us to determine the age of rocks and minerals. The variety of isotopic geochronological techniques give complementary information on, for example, the timing of igneous or metamorphic crystallisation, as is often the case for the...

Investigations by Urangesellschaft of previously recorded aerial radiometric anomalies above sedimentary cover in the vicinity of outcropping granite at Carapee Hill, which body contains sporadic low grade uranium mineralisation, have included...

Exploration by Afmeco for uranium and base metals in an area north of Mount Christie included a consultant's interpretation of previously acquired aeromagnetic and aerial radiometric data (for surveys flown by Austirex in November 1979), a...

In July and August 1969 a ground radiometric survey of readings taken at 25 foot intervals on a 100 foot grid was conducted on the eastern flanks of the Iron Prince massif, with the aim of further investigating 3 radioactive anomalies discovered there...

Ground scintillometer work carried out by BHP over its SMLs in the Middleback Range area has been shown not to be an effective reconnaissance tool for finding uranium anomalies, but it does have demonstrated value for identifying sources of...

The aim of a new round of company exploration in the Crocker Well - Mount Victoria region of the Olary Province has been to re-appraise the reserves and ore grade at three known uranium deposits, and also to try to find orebody extensions and new...

A survey of surface water and groundwater chemistry in the Plumbago region was carried out for E-Z by an Amdel consultant to try to find vectors to possible undiscovered uranium mineralisation, through interpretation of the geochemical significance of...

Mineral sands containing approximately 25% rutile in the heavy fraction were assessed for their geological extent and economic potential. The heavy mineral strandings occur over varying widths of up to 60 feet throughout the total length of Morrison...

Uranium exploration in a known uraniferous area located immediately north of Iron Knob comprised numerous ground radiometric survey traverses made across outcropping Mesoproterozoic rocks, mainly the Corunna Conglomerate. A thin phosphatic basal bed...

Laboratory beneficiation feasibility tests have been conducted on a 250 lb bulk sample of known heavy mineral - bearing beach sands which were taken from nearshore dunes located along the northern coastline of Kangaroo Island at Nepean Bay. It was...
