Exploration for Olympic Dam-style mineralisation, undertaken over an area centred ~15 km south-east of Arcoona Homestead on the Stuart Shelf, which includes WMC's formerly partly tested Emmie Bluff prospect, has comprised the acquisition of ground...

A sequence of exploration programs in the Mount Painter Province, undertaken on Special Mining Leases since 1965, have been previously released. Exploration for base metals, gold, uranium and REE since 1974, in an area extending 50 km southwest from...

Exploration for possible buried diapir or diatreme - associated diamonds, copper and gold, within an intensively faulted, folded and eroded area of the northern Flinders Ranges situated 35 km east and south-east of Lyndhurst, comprised gravel, stream...

Diamond exploration undertaken over a much dissected 460 square km area of the south-central Flinders Ranges between Stirling North and Mount Arden comprised aeromagnetic interpretation and heavy mineral processing of a regional suite of 170+ stream...

As part of continued exploration over a 48% reduced licence area from prior EL 1416 (see Env 8585 for relinquishment report), 36 exploratory inclined RC drillholes (total penetration 3404 m) evaluated nine high-priority aeromagnetic targets, with some...

A study of regional geophysical data from the Stuart Shelf and CURNAMONA 1:250,000 mapsheet areas was aimed at indicating the potential for Precambrian basement uranium occurrences of Roxby Downs type within the southern Lake Frome region, since both...

No new palaeochannels were located. Pathways for the Billeroo West and Curnamona palaeochannels are postulated. The depth to basement is greatest in the north and west where a sub-basin appears to occur. Deep resistivity soundings were conducted...

Exploration of an area situated between Whyalla, Iron Knob and The Bluff overlooking Myall Creek, 20 km south-west of Port Augusta, aimed to test for Olympic Dam - type Cu-U-Au mineralisation associated with products of igneous activity located in and...

A multi-commodity mineral exploration programme carried out over an area between Mannum and Strathalbyn, seeking buried targets concealed in Tertiary sediments and basement rocks, comprised aerial magnetic, radiometric and EM surveys; groundwater,...

Possible economic Broken Hill - type stratiform Pb and Zn, and Middleback Range style iron ore, were targeted near Lock on central Eyre Peninsula by Western Mining Corp., who farmed-in to Stockdale's EL 1516 on March 1st, 1990 as part of a regional...

Following the signing of an eighteen month exploration joint venture agreement with Stockdale, farminee Mobil Energy Minerals undertook continuation of the uranium search over the anomalous ground lying east and south-east of Lake Gilles, besides...

Exploration for Broken Hill style stratiform Zn-Pb-Ag and/or Roxby Downs - Cloncurry style discordant Cu-Au and Zn deposits, in the Bimbowrie - MacDonald Hill - Telechie Dam - Boolcoomata area, north-west of Olary, comprised ground magnetic and...

An intensive search for possible banded iron formation - related Proterozoic stratiform lead-zinc mineralisation, of Gamsberg / Aggeneys / Broken Hill style, over an area surrounding Kimba on Eyre Peninsula, has included aerial magnetic and...

The three licences now being surrendered were originally taken out by Seltrust in the mid-1970s to search for stratabound base metals and Olympic Dam type mineralisation. After Seltrust withdrew from the subsequently formed Stuart Shelf joint venture...
