Surface copper carbonate mineralization occurring along a presumed shear zone was initially discovered some 4 miles southwest of the Parabarana Cu prospect by North Flinders Mines in late 1971, during a programme of detailed geochemical stream...

TARGET: Sediment-hosted uranium mineralisation. EXPLORATION: 12 vertical rotary mud drillholes were completed for a total penetration of 1992 m in the Christmas Well and Caldina areas, west of Lake Frome. RESULTS: No downhole radiometric anomalies...

TRONA EXPLORATION: Of the 9 rotary/diamond holes drilled, only the first, Meramangye 1, intersected a unit equivalent to the Observatory Hill Beds, which was the target horizon for trona. Drillholes Manya nos 2-6 and Marla 7 intersected Cambrian red...

A process of rationalisation of several prior-held CRAE tenements covering Cambrian trough sediments which partly outcrop in the south-eastern Mount Lofty Ranges has led to limited ongoing exploration by that company. Ground-based follow-up of all...

Continuing intensive exploration for economic sedimentary uranium deposits within buried Tertiary palaeochannel sediments in the Yarramba Homestead area, 50 km north-west of Cockburn, which had been invigorated by the recent discovery of strongly...

During the EL 132 tenure, work has consisted of a mineability evaluation of the Honeymoon uranium deposit, plus additional U exploration over the South Eagle farmout. Initially, 5 rotary holes (total 594.9 m) were drilled to the north of the...

Stratabound, chemically precipitated Telfer - type replacement style vein gold was the target of exploration undertaken over an area 25 km north-west of Yunta, which contains good exposures of Neoproterozoic Umberatana Group clastic metasediments that...

Exploration for possible Alligator Rivers (Northern Territory) style uranium deposits occurring in potential host rocks (carbonaceous pelites and carbonate rocks) within an Early Proterozoic metasedimentary sequence underlying a Middle Proterozoic...

Exploration for Broken Hill or Aggeneys type Proterozoic stratiform base metal massive sulphides within the Hutchison Group in the Mount Shannan area, north of Cleve, has included the acquisition, processing and interpretation of airborne magnetic,...

In-situ leaching of a uranium orebody can only be successful if the deposit meets a number of essential criteria. These criteria are: 1. The ore occurs in a generally porous and permeable horizontal bed underlain and overlain by impermeable strata;...

The south-eastern Lake Frome Embayment in the vicinity of Quinyambie Station was explored for Upper and Lower Tertiary 'blanket' or 'roll front' type sedimentary uranium, via the drilling of 75 open vertical rotary mud holes with a total penetration...

Magnetic profiles above dyke feature indicate the eastern flank dips to the W. The northern area has very high gradient, large amplitude magnetic linears caused by 5 dipping haematite quartzite horizons in sequence of folds while the southern half has...

2130 miles of aeromagnetic and aerial radiometric traverses were flown at 300 feet altitude, with a half mile line spacing. Results are presented as TMI maps and stacked profiles of the uranium channel. There are numerous radiometric anomalies but no...

Rotary open-hole drilling of 62 holes (total 27,363 feet) with geological and geophysical logging, in a search for Tertiary sedimentary uranium near Mount Hopeless, intersected minor anomalous radioactivity in 4 holes.

The exploration concept was based on searching for secondary uranium mineralisation that might be derived from the Musgrave Block basement rocks and that could have become precipitated within calcrete horizons from ponded uraniferous surface drainage...

Aeromagnetic, ground magnetic and EM surveys, with follow-up rock chip, stream sediment and soil sampling, RAB drilling (688 holes, total 17,553 m) and RC drilling (12 holes, total 1149 m), have defined an extensive zone of anomalous base metal...

Continuing exploration in the Woomera area has included the acquisition of a ground magnetic and gravity survey over the Buller Dam anomaly, which lies on the western flank of the Acropolis aeromagnetic anomaly, and this work confirmed that the former...
