The northern to central Flinders Ranges area comprise uplifted and eroded remnants of openly folded sedimentary rocks that were deposited in an intra-continental arm of the Neoproterozoic to Early Cambrian Adelaide Geosyncline. Deposition was...

Similarities between the Athabasca and Cariewerloo Basins were first proposed by PIRSA geologists in the 1990s. Subsequently, the uranium potential of the Cariewerloo Basin has been heavily promoted by PIRSA. Both are intracratonic basins containing...

South Australia’s Olympic Cu-Au Province hosts some of the world’s great iron oxide copper gold (IOCG) deposits, such as Olympic Dam, Prominent Hill and Carrapateena. The same causative thermal event resulted in variants of this deposit class being...

Sedimentary-hosted copper deposits are the second most important source of copper in the world, as well as being the most important source of cobalt, and fourth among all classes of ore deposits in production of silver. The Neoproterozoic sedimentary...

Upper crustal strata forming the northern to central Flinders Ranges area comprise uplifted and eroded remnants of openly folded sedimentary rocks that were deposited in an intra-continental arm of the Neoproterozoic to Early Cambrian Adelaide...

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...

The Cariewerloo Basin is seen as having many similarities with the Athabasca Basin, host to several unconformity-related Uranium deposits. Both are intracratonic basins containing Palaeo-Mesoproterozoic, unmetamorphosed and largely undeformed, quartz...

The Curnamona Province basement 3D Geological Model is a product of PIRSA's early 3D modelling trials conducted using 3D GeoModeller software. The work began with identifying the statigraphic units that were to be modelled. Due to the regional scale...

The Burra (Burra) Mine, situated 150 km north of Adelaide within the Adelaide Geosyncline, produced 2.7 million tonnes of copper ore in two major mining phases: 1845 - 1877 and 1970 - 1981. The entire length of the pit is occupied by a diapiric body...

The current, version 1 release South Australia state-wide Solid Geology 3D Model is a new compilation of the pre-existing Gawler Province 3D Model and Curnamona Province 3D Model releases of 2005, that were both constructed in GeoModeller and then...

The acquisition and interpretation of the deep crustal seismic line 13GA-EG1 has allowed a new 3D model to be constructed for the western Gawler Craton. The new 3D model expands on the Eastern Gawler IOGC / Woomera Prohibited Area model, which sits...
