Heavy minerals concentrated within the Ooldea Sand of the Eucla Basin, and possibly reworked and upgraded by later marine incursions into such deposits, which might have led to their redeposition elsewhere as translocated strandlines that are still...

Exploration for heavy-mineral sand in Tertiary sediments on the south-western flank of the Ooldea Range comprised geological reconnaissance and RC drilling (81 holes, total 1204 m). Up to 3% titaniferous heavy minerals were reported from drill samples.

A combined total area of 1021 square km has recently been relinquished by Iluka from three geographically separate Group 4 tenements, due to the lack of significant marine sands there and the absence of significant HM accumulations shown by first pass...

Seven exploration licences which together comprised the western portion of Iluka's Group 4 of jointly reported tenements have been fully surrendered, after work performed there recently suggested that their perceived prospectivity for Tertiary...

A small licence area located 30 km north of Fowlers Bay in far western South Australia has been explored for possible economic Tertiary mineral sands deposits, but specific activities on it were repeatedly postponed by the licensee not committing the...

The western two-thirds, or 427 square km, of an area located on the eastern side of the Nullarbor Plain, ~200 km north-west of Ceduna, has been partially relinquished because in the licensee's opinion it does not exhibit the geological features...

The remnant portion of EL 4962, which is centred ~30 km north-east of Ceduna, has now been fully surrendered owing to a perceived lack of prospectivity for economic detrital zircon entrapped there within Tertiary Eucla Basin sediments. During the...

A group of exploration licences located on the northern margin of the Eucla Basin, and situated north of the Trans Australian Railway, which cover ground extending into the Eocene to Miocene marginal marine depositional hinterland behind the Barton...

Three adjoining licence areas that were centred approximately 480 km north-west of Ceduna together occupied the northern section of the Ooldea Range over a stepped NW-SE trending outline having an average width of 25 km and a combined total length of...

Iluka Resources’ Eucla Basin Heavy Mineral Sands Project tenement Group 2 consisted initially ELs 3268, 3283, 3322 and 3330, which spanned the south-eastern portion of the Eucla Basin, extending from 24 km to 140 km north of Ceduna. Regionally, the...

EL 2870 Ceduna covers 1390 square km located adjacent to the coast near Ceduna on north-western Eyre Peninsula. Minotaur believed that the area, which lies relatively close to the continental Fowler Suture Zone, was prospective for Proterozoic...

As part of a regional mineral exploration programme, an area of the onshore Eucla Basin thought to have possible Tertiary heavy mineral sands potential, being marginal to the Ooldea Range, was evaluated by aerial prospecting and by a consultant...

The three adjoining subject licences, which are located north of the Trans Australian Railway and approximately 200 km north-west of the town of Ceduna, have jointly been fully surrendered due to their geology being regarded by the joint venturers as...

This report details work undertaken by Iluka Resources to meet the agreed conditions for grant of PACE Initiative Year 5 exploration drilling project partial subsidy funds. Specifically, Iluka undertook heavy mineral sands exploratory drilling during...

Exploration of an onshore area located immediately north of Murat Bay aimed to discover beach or shallow marine placer concentrations of zircon-rich heavy mineral sands, possibly formed within significant thicknesses of prospective Upper Tertiary...

The now relinquished south-western portion of a licence area centred ~130 km north-west of Ceduna has been explored for possible economic marine placer heavy mineral sands deposits. The only work which took place on this ground was the aircore...

Large portions of two licence areas located between 50 and 80 km north of Ceduna, with a combined total subject area of 1119.6 square km, have now been relinquished by Iluka in compliance with statutory requirements made under the company's Eucla...

Exploration for possible economic heavy mineral sands carried out by Iluka Resources within the now relinquished portions of its multi-licence acreage has comprised vertical aircore drilling of the Cainozoic sedimentary sequence (166 holes for a total...

A small area centred ~30 km west-northwest of Ceduna has been explored for possible economic Tertiary heavy mineral sands deposits. During the first licence year, Bemax performed a literature review and examined available geological data for this...

An area originally consisting of three separate small sub-blocks which are generally centred ~15 km north-northeast of Ceduna has been explored for possible buried economic Tertiary heavy mineral sands (HM) marine placer deposits. The main intent was...
