Water level data suggests that there is little transmission of groundwater via the Pallamana Fault. Groundwater quality is generally poor, particularly in the southern part of the area. Significant increases in runoff from the Honarto area to the nest...

Railway ballast was sought from amphibolite of the Kanmantoo Group of Cambrian age which subcrops on a bedrock ridge in the Murray Basin near Tailem Bend. A surface sample of amphibolite returned low Los Angelese Abrasion and Sodium Sulphate Soundness...

Groundwater flow in the Upper Murray region is generally towards the River Murray except in the Noora area where contours show a depression in the water table surface. The Noora area appears to be the most suitable site for an evaporation basin for...

Further drilling and pump testing between the proposed Noora evaporation basin and the River Murray has provided data for determining aquifer parameters. Using the Boulton delayed yield method a transmissivity of 100 m2/day was obtained for one...

STR-2, on the Padthaway Ridge, near Monster Mount, Keith district, penetrated a Cainozoic sequence approximately 88 m thick resting on bed-rock of weathered quartz-feldspar porphyry. ?Coomandook Formation (8-28 m, ?Early Pleistocene) 1s distinguished...

Further drilling and aquifer testing between the proposed Noora evaporation basin and the River Murray yielded an average value of about 100 m3/day/m for transmissivity of the Loxton Sand aquifer. It is therefore expected that initial effects of such...

No work performed during the subject period - Native Title land access negotiations in progress.

A package of fourteen mineral exploration tenements were taken up that straddled the north-eastern and south-western sides of the Padthaway Ridge, to allow the licensee to explore both the Tertiary Murray Basin and Gambier Basin sediments where they...

An area consisting of two separate sub-blocks located ~50 km north-east and east of Burra has been explored for possible economic buried marine placer heavy mineral (HM) sand deposits. The target strata comprised littoral marine sediments of the...

Two adjoining areas centred ~ 75 km east of Tailem Bend have been explored for possible economic buried Tertiary marine placer heavy mineral sand (HMS) deposits that may have been formed within the Murray Basin sedimentary succession, as winnowed...

An area centred ~7 km west-southwest of Morgan has been explored since 8/7/2013 by Iluka Resources (Iluka) for possible economic buried Tertiary heavy mineral sands deposits. The company was targeting any mineralised Loxton-Parilla Sand (LPS)...

Two adjoining large areas in the southern Murraylands are being explored for possible economic buried Pliocene heavy mineral sands (HM) marine placer deposits. Both Mindarie type palaeobeach strandline HM occurrences and basin margin headland -...

A small area located ~ 33 km north-east of Burra has been explored for possible economic buried marine placer heavy mineral (HM) sand deposits. The target strata comprised littoral marine sediments of the Pliocene aged Loxton - Parilla Sand (LPS), in...

An area centred ~20 km south-west of Morgan has been explored by Iluka Resources (Iluka) for possible economic buried Tertiary heavy mineral sands deposits. The company was targeting any mineralised Loxton-Parilla Sand (LPS) sediments deposited during...

An area centred ~ 95 km north-west of Renmark has been explored for possible economic buried Tertiary marine placer heavy mineral sand (HMS) deposits that may have been formed within the Murray Basin sedimentary succession, as winnowed strandings that...

In the last phase of exploration for possible buried economic heavy mineral (HM) sands marine placer deposits in the district extending between Waikerie, Blanchetown and parts of the north-western Murray Mallee, the only field work undertaken was...

An area covering the valley of the River Murray between Murray Bridge and Jervois has been explored for possible economic placer occurrences of heavy mineral (HM) sands that may have formed within the Late Tertiary Murray Basin shallow marine clastic...

Extensive infill drilling carried out by Australian Zircon on the Mindarie 'A2' and Mindarie 'C' heavy mineral sands (HMS) deposits during the past year has provided improved definition of their resource boundaries, thus enabling the accurate...
