This consultant's interpretation was done to assist with Comalco's trona and petroleum exploration. The crystalline (Carpentarian) basement surface has been delineated at depths ranging from less than 200 m to greater than 3000 m. NE-trending...

Exploratory drilling carried out by BHP Billiton (BHPB) during the 2009-10 project reporting year took place at six prospects thought to have good IOCG mineralisation potential, based in part on earlier drilling results and also on refined target...

A group of contiguous exploration licences centred ~100 km south-west of Coober Pedy are being explored principally for epithermal and Challenger-style gold mineralisation hosted by covered Archaean basement rocks, as well as for any economic base...

TARGET: Coal in the Oodnadatta - Mount Barry - Allandale area of the Arckaringa Basin. EXPLORATION: The drilling of 11 holes totalling 2989 m, the re-appraisal of existing seismic data, and acquisition of a high resolution reflection seismic survey...

Potentially large, poorly-defined resources of black coal buried at the south-western and southern margins of the Cooper Basin were investigated via a review of relevant previous petroleum exploration geological and geophysical data. Probable thick,...

During the 2011-2012 joint reporting year, Iluka undertook drilling on ELs 3638, 3742 and 4544 with three aims: to extend the Typhoon HM deposit resource, to follow-up results of brownfields drilling at the Sonoran prospect, and to do further infill...
