Prompted by records of anomalous radioactivity being detected at old copper workings in the Hawker - Willochra region of the Flinders Ranges, the licensees decided to investigate the Arkaba Diapir for possible uranium mineralisation that might be...

Exploration of a fairly large diapir located near Carrieton was undertaken using geochemical methods to seek possible barite occurrences similar to those associated with other diapirs in the region, e.g. Oraparinna and Oladdie, as well as addressing...

A search for possible additional reserves of secondary copper ore was undertaken by Bridge Minerals on historic mine workings in the Angepena Station area, 25-40 km east of Leigh Creek, to complement that company's recent discovery of significant...

Examination of potentially economic stratiform copper mineralisation recorded in the Paratoo area, located approximately 60 km north-east of Peterborough, has found that it occurs within Adelaidean shales and siltstones over the apical hinge zone of a...

Exploration for possible extensions to previously worked barite lodes and for new vein deposits in the Oladdie area comprised an initial familiarisation study tour of the geological setting of commercial barite deposits elsewhere in the Flinders...

Reconnaisance and detailed geochemical surveys, plus limited diamond drilling at the Baratta mine (2 holes for 480 feet), failed to find any extensions to known but worked-out near surface Cu-Pb-Zn lodes. It was concluded that only a small area...

A re-investigation of the remnant mineralisation potential of the Ediacara Mineral Field has involved a review of SA Department of Mines' (SADM) diamond drillhole data, the selective re-sampling of diamond drill core intervals for assay, detailed...

Work done included 1:1200 scale geological mapping of the fluorite and barite vein deposits, and limited assaying of 15 grab samples.

The near-surface base and precious metal potential of several possibly gossanous ironstone outcrops, that exist within a north-east trending broad domal structure in the Umberatana Group extending for 5-15 miles east of Yunta, were tested by limited...

An area of 117 square miles surrounding Carrieton Railway Siding was prospected for possible economic diapir-related base and precious metals hosted within bounding Adelaidean strata. A comprehensive regional stream sediment survey was conducted...

Detailed mapping has identified the erratic nature of fluorite mineralization within the vein system. One diamond drill hole, 950 feet deep, tested the southern extension of the known copper - bearing zone.

Two samples taken from the Ediacara orebody leached zone near the Black Eagle mine, representing the lead and copper-bearing sections respectively, were tested by contractor MIM for their superpanning and flotation characteristics of mineral...

Exploration for possible stratabound copper deposits, over an area 5 miles south-east of Carrieton, consisted of rock chip sampling and field geological mapping at 1:25,000 scale of outcropping folded and brecciated River Wakefield Group sediments,...

Exploration for possible stratabound or hydrothermal copper deposits in an area between Johnburg and Orroroo consisted of detailed 1:12,000 scale geological mapping and a stream sediment geochemical survey. This work failed to locate any copper of...

Results of rotary percussion / diamond core drilling of 3 holes (total penetration 532.2 m, of which 341.2 m was cored) near the Black Eagle mine on the western margin of the Cambrian Ediacara Sub-basin, plus a reinterpretation of previous drilling...
