Following an evaluation of existing subsurface data, 9 vertical percussion holes totalling 670 m were drilled to test discrete gravity anomalies in the Mount Woods area, in a search for Olympic Dam type mineralisation. The holes encountered...

TARGET: Metamorphic and hypogene iron ore, and latterly, epigenetic base metals, associated with pronounced local magnetic anomalies in the Mount Woods area. EXPLORATION: Reconnaissance geological mapping and sampling of the Mount Woods ?Archaean...

An investigation of several well-defined and relatively high intensity aeromagnetic anomalies (up to 20,000 gammas), disclosed by an Aero Services Corp. 1962 regional survey conducted partly in the vicinity of Mount Woods, was undertaken in a search...

SML 376 covers an old copper mining district located 10-15 miles east of Hawker in the central Flinders Ranges, which contains many small workings of low grade copper mineralisation developed in the core of a diapir-like structure known as the Worumba...

In a search for possible concealed stratiform base metal deposits associated with haematitic jaspilites and quartzites in the Cleve Uplands area, extensive rock chip, float and residual soil sampling traverses were followed by geochemical sampling of...

A substantial part of the central and southern Adelaide Hills, in the vicinity of the margins of Archaean basement inliers, was taken up by a Tennant Creek (NT) - based gold mining company to explore for possible buried economic gold and base metal...

Continuing exploration of the area near Olary, primarily for undiscovered near-surface lodes of economic copper and silver minerals, has involved mainly a close inspection of several old abandoned mines and limited surface geochemical sampling of...

Two areas located north-east of Kingston (SE) were taken up to explore for shallowly covered igneous rock bodies which might contain economic hydrothermal / metasomatic base metal mineralisation similar to that recently found on Spilsby Island in...

Ongoing nickel exploration work at the eastern end of the Musgrave Ranges, just south of the SA-NT border, has consisted of the ground-truthing of aerial magnetic anomalies through measurement of magnetic susceptibilities, the traversing of various...

As part of an ongoing search for possible buried economic roll-front or sandstone type Tertiary sedimentary uranium deposits in an area 70 km east of Lake Frome, a detailed stratigraphic and sedimentological analysis was undertaken of rotary drillhole...

Investigations of the copper potential of a series of folded and faulted, Carpentarian age, albite / actinolite / quartz / magnetite altered fine-grained metasediments exposed in the vicinity of Cathedral Rock on Old Boolcoomata Station commenced...

A structurally deformed area in the southwestern corner of SML 704, having many copper carbonate showings and small historic workings known as the Yudnamutana Mining Field, has been mapped at a semi-detailed scale. The area is transected by the...

The report discusses the present viability of the envisaged land pipeline transportation of slurried Mount Christie magnetite ore from any mine to export facilities on the Great Australian Bight, where slurry dewatering and shiploading by normal...

Gravity and reduced-to-pole total magnetic intensity grids over the northern Gawler Craton have been vectorised, generating polygon datasets representing regions of locally anomalous gravity and magnetic intensity. Statistics from potential field...

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 2010, and compares the data with that returned for the previous six...

The Cairn Hill magnetite-copper-gold project, located 55 km south-east of South Australia’s far northern regional centre of Coober Pedy, has been developed by IMX Resources Ltd (IMX) and is the first large iron ore mine to be opened in South Australia...

The eastern Gawler Craton hosts the giant Olympic Dam iron oxide - associated copper-gold (IOCG) deposit, as well as several other world class IOCG deposits (i.e. Prominent Hill and Carrapateena). The region is covered by a thick sequence of...
