A small licence area located on the northern margin of the Murray Basin, approximately 70 km north-east of Burra and about 40 km south of the previously studied Razorback Ridge banded iron formation magnetite deposit, has been explored for possible...

The Curnamona Province is the southern remnant of the Palaeoproterozoic Pb-Zn belt, and represents but a small fragment of the original superbasin. Geological data supports the idea of the basin being a rift, with sediments in the Broken Hill Domain...

This report presents detailed industry-derived statistics on the State's output and sales values of earth resource commodities realised during the six month period ended 31 December 2009, and compares the data with that returned for the previous six...

In a search for base metals on northern Kangaroo Island, the licensee investigated an untested regional magnetic anomaly in the Middle River area, following the assumption that Kanmantoo type stratiform mineralisation would give a distinctive magnetic...

In a search for possible economic heavy mineral - bearing buried Tertiary beach sand deposits, similar to the recent Golden Grove discovery made in Eocene fluviatile sediments of an adjacent sub-basin, 20 vertical percussion stratigraphic drillholes...

This report presents detailed industry-derived statistics on the State's output and sales values of earth resource commodities realised during the six month period ended 30 June 2009, and compares the data with that returned for the previous six...

Ongoing copper/uranium exploration of basement and Willouran cover southwest of Moolawatana comprised ground magnetic, IP, EM and TEM surveys, airborne EM (Turair) and magnetic surveys, prospect-scale geochemical surveys and limited diamond drilling...

Ground magnetic survey and gravity survey traverses were conducted south-southwest of Tintinara over aeromagnetic features considered to be prospective for base and precious metals. 13 rotary mud/diamond drillholes (respective total penetration 1048...

Exploration for hidden copper-gold deposit mineralising systems, possibly genetically related to fractionated, high crustal level emplaced Cambro-Ordovician intrusives, has addressed an arcuate, 300 km long north-south and 50 km wide east-west segment...

Ground magnetics and RC drilling (13 holes, total 2436 m) were carried out on three buried Proterozoic ?ironstone-skarn targets that had been identified around the margins of interpreted Hiltaba Suite granites, 80 km west of Coober Pedy, and which...

A review of available geological and geophysical data from an area 40 km north of Tarcoola identified a large coincident gravity-magnetic feature located close to a drill intersection of massive to brecciated magnetite, this being indicative of...

EL 2888 was applied for to cover prospective magnetic anomalies thought to be underlain by magnetite-rich banded iron formations (BIF), that exist close to Cowell on the eastern Eyre Peninsula. One geological interpretation of the magnetic anomalism...

A programme of five diamond drillholes totalling 1740.6 m has recently been completed on EL 3445 at the Kangaroo Dam prospect, to follow up anomalous platinum and palladium metal values encountered within the Palaeoproterozoic metasedimentary basement...

An area covering 24 square km of private land situated approximately 10 km east of Truro township was taken up by Asarco under a number of privately negotiated option agreements to acquire the relevant mineral rights, should an economic base/precious...

Exploration for buried Middle Proterozoic basement - hosted Cu-U-Au mineralisation similar to that found at Olympic Dam, and for possible younger buried Adelaidean sediments, was undertaken over a basement high in the Mount Purvis area. Diamond...

In a search for possible economic epithermal / stratiform / metamorphic base metals and gold within the Weekeroo Inlier, detailed geological mapping, rock chip sampling and an office evaluation of previous exploration were carried out for the Weekeroo...

Detailed prospecting for kimberlites in both areas was unsuccessful.

An extensive search for economic iron ore deposits has been made on Eyre Peninsula by the South Australian Government. Originally the search was made in the Middleback Range area, which was until recently the source of all of the iron ore used in...
