The subject exploration licence was taken up for a 1-year term to enable ETSA and SADME to jointly conduct exploration for possible Triassic coal basins that might be concealed beneath alluvial cover in sparsely drilled areas to the north and...

Talc mines located near Mount Fitton produce 60% to 80% of the South Australian production of talc, of which two thirds is high grade material (suitable for pharmaceutical or paint manufacture). Over 40 known deposits occurring within an area of 60...

266 summary sheets on significant lead-zinc occurrences and anomalous concentrations have been prepared by the Department's Lead-Zinc Taskforce as a data package, in the form of 5 reports, to assist in the search for lead-zinc deposits to provide...

Protracted exploration undertaken by an individual mineral prospector over a small area of rugged topography located in the north-central Flinders Ranges, approximately 25 km north-east of Leigh Creek, has addressed a number of potentially economic...

Talc has been mined at Mount Fitton in the northern Flinders Ranges on a continuous basis since 1945, for industrial use in the manufacture of cosmetics, ceramics and refractory ware. From 1979 to 1996, under authority of a series of Exploration...

A small area centred ~30 km north-northeast of Leigh Creek and the central Telford Basin coalfields, has been explored for possible economic diapir-related stratabound occurrences of base metals and gold. During the first licence year, the only...

This section of the study was based on source rock analyses performed on 75 outcrop and shallow drill core samples from 25 localities, plus other new data derived from Cambrian sediments intersected in the deep petroleum exploration wells Moorowie 1,...

High-grade silver-lead-zinc mineralisation formed within the Neoproterozoic Tapley Hill Formation (THF) was historically mined 100 years ago at Yerelina in the northern Flinders Ranges. Despite the existence of numerous poorly documented small-scale...

Two adjoining licence areas located ~ 40 km north-east of Leigh Creek township, in the ranges lying immediately east of the Telford coal basin, are being explored for possible economic occurrences of marble rock which are believed to hold enormous...

Wertaloona Seismic Survey - AIM:The 1981 Wertaloona Seismic Survey programme was designed by the PELs 5 and 6 Arrowie Block partners to provide the first high quality, multifold seismic reflection data in the area of likely preserved thick Cambrian...

TARGET: Exploration and evaluation of known secondary copper occurrences and exploration for gold and phosphates in the Lyndhurst-Copley region. EXPLORATION: Including the work done previously in EL 929, exploration activities undertaken since 1981...

Reconnaissance and infill low-density stream sediment sampling and bulk soil sampling of Adelaidean diapiric outcrop on the eastern side of SML 429 near the Burr River sought to reveal additional base metal mineralisation in the vicinity of small...

Exploration for possible economic syngenetic/stratiform or epigenetic/hydrothermal base metals and gold hosted by Early Cambrian and older Adelaidean rocks in the Angepena area initially comprised the conduct of reconnaissance 1:50,000 scale...

Diapiric marbles and dolomitic siltstone breccia of presumed Willouran age intrude younger Umberatana Group rocks which have been folded into an elongate domal structure and, in part, rest unconformably on the diapiric core. Within the diapir several...

Despite the palaeoecological emphasis of most recent stromatolite research outside the USSR, controversy still exists regarding the environmental restriction of these organosedimentary structures and in some cases, analogies with modern occurrences...

At South Hill, Willouran Ranges, the lower member of the Skillogalee Dolomite contains new form of Baicalia, B. blastophora. The Wonoka Formation contains an indeterminate form of Linella in the Willouran Ranges and Tungussia inna at Bunyeroo Gorge....

There is no abstract created for this record

No field work was done on the subject licence, covering a small area centred ~20 km north-east of Leigh Creek, during the three years of its tenure. As a result, the Minister of Mines cancelled the licence.

The Boolooroo licence area is located ~ 40 km north-east of Leigh Creek township, in the ranges lying immediately east of the Telford coal basin, are being explored for possible economic occurrences of marble rock which are believed to hold enormous...

Drilling of 27 appraisal NQ diamond cored holes for a total penetration of 1538 m over the period October 1984 to May 1985 (2 holes being abandoned at shallow depth due to having drilling difficulties within broken quartzite) has defined 5 new buried...
