Inspection of an area showing diapiric and fault disturbance within upper Adelaidean and Lower Cambrian metasediments in the vicinity of Mount Neville sought to find barite deposits of sufficiently high grade and quantity to resemble those of the...

TARGET: Gold associated with major structures and hosted by calcareous rocks. EXPLORATION: Stream sediment and BLEG (bulk leach extractable gold) sampling at 108 sites. Au (by bulk cyanide leach), As, Fe and Sb analysis. Several rock chip samples from...

Assays of 21 geochemical samples taken from within Donnelly's iron ore deposits on Mineral Claim 4573 indicate that they have a significant anomalous trace metal content, with up to 0.25% Cu occurring in wallrocks consisting of manganiferous quartzite...

An area covering a number of historic past small copper-silver and barite workings in the greater Artipena district centred ~ 75 km east-northeast of Hawker was taken up mainly to investigate the hydrothermal copper mineralisation potential of fresh...

A synopsis of the possible pre-tectonic structural setting and sequence of geological events which has resulted in the observed development of faulted domes and diapirs within Neoproterozoic sediments of the central Flinders Ranges, and the related...

Since 1990 Frontier Exploration Ltd has explored in the Central Flinders Zone of the Adelaide Geosyncline in order to assess its hydrocarbon and mineral potential, and the relationship of diapirs to these resources. The basic concepts used have not...

Report gives only level plans and longitudinal sections depicting the new mine tunnels recently begun to be driven off at levels 5, 6 and 7 from the completed access decline.

Reconnaissance geochemical sampling of the eastern PARACHILNA mapsheet area for sediment-hosted base metal deposits has succeeded in locating several well-defined areas of interest, although approximately two-thirds of the SML area appears to be...

Two separate prospect areas have been explored with reconnaissance and follow-up IP surveys (total 264 line km), ground magnetic surveys (34 line km), minor TX - Afmag and REM surveys (4 line km), and regional and detailed geological mapping (1:12,000...

Results of a survey made to determine the barite reserves that might be available to the client for development, that lie within 200 miles' distance of the Quorn processing mill. A literature review was conducted and a summary prepared of known...

This report summarises the results of recent surface and underground mine stadia surveys and of a geological and reserves appraisal of the Oraparinna barite mine. The results have been incorporated into a comprehensive set of mine plans, and a 3-D...

As part of exploration for economic metallic mineral deposits within an area of partly outcropping Precambrian calcsilicate rocks present on Kalabity Station, a field reconnaissance of all known mineralised areas was carried out initially. The...

Regional geological mapping of the area was initiated in 1959 and was completed in 1964. All tracks in the area were traversed and detailed mapping confined to critical localities and to areas where this was considered desirable. Geological boundaries...

During the past twenty years attention has been directed to the natural resources of the State in pigment materials, and a considerable body of information, based 011 official reports, has been accumulated, which is now collected into this Bulletin,...

A sample of 50 tons of crude barytes was cleaned to produce parcels large enough for testing by consumer industries, Data of importance for plant design were recorded.

The PARACHILNA map area (31 to 32°S, 138 to 139.5°E) occupies the central Flinders Ranges which are made up of folded, mostly marine sedimentary Neoproterozoic and Cambrian rocks of the Adelaide Geosyncline, and adjoining plains underlain by Cainozoic...

In recognition of the centenary of Henry Yorke Lyell Brown's appointment as the first Government Geologist for South Australia, and the foundation of the Department of Mines and Energy, aspects of South Australia's colourful and vital mining and...
