RB 2003/00010 Regolith characterisation and geochemistry as an aid to mineral exploration in the Harris Greenstone Belt, central Gawler Craton, South Australia.
Komatiitic greenstones were first recognised in South Australia from drillcore at Lake Harris on the Gawler Craton by Mines and Energy SA personnel in 1991. Subsequent petrography and detailed aeromagnetic data interpretation led to targeted drilling...-
