Gold mineralisation is widespread and occurs in most geological provinces of South Australia. Gold in South Australia is obtained from two types of primary deposits - quartz veins (reefs or lodges) and deposits worked mainly for base metals from which...

South Australia’s copper deposits are held within three significant regions, Gawler Craton, Curnamona Province and the Adelaide Geosyncline, which host 3 producing mines, 4 developing projects and over 40 copper prospects. Many of the deposits in...

South Australia is the birthplace of the Australian iron ore industry. There are existing operational mines in the Middleback Ranges. There are a further two mines approved and twenty developing projects across the State with identified resources of...

An area centred ~20 km north-west of Cummins has been explored for possible economic buried Archaean intrusive related nickel mineralisation associated with the Polda Basin margin, for Archaean VHMS style zinc mineralisation, and for magnetite iron...

In a search for possible economic Mesoproterozoic or Palaeoproterozoic basement-hosted gold and base metal mineralisation within two small licence subareas located about 55-75 km north-east of Poochera, Minotaur Exploration undertook a review of...

A small (11 square km) area located approximately 40 km south of Kimba has been explored for possible economic uranium, gold or base metal deposits, including Menninnie Dam style lead-zinc-silver mineralisation, that may have formed in Archaean to...

The stated exploration strategy for the Joint Venture's Eyre Peninsula Project tenements was to explore predominantly for gold and copper, with uranium as a secondary focus. Regional programmes of calcrete geochemical sampling were to be used to...

321 square km of the former area of EL 4938 has recently been relinquished due to a lack of encouraging results, and difficulty with land access onto certain private properties located therein due to some farmers’ resistance to mineral exploration....

The stated exploration strategy for the Joint Venture's Eyre Peninsula Project tenements (that are still extant) is to explore predominantly for gold and copper, with uranium as a secondary focus. Regional programmes of calcrete geochemical sampling...

An area located approximately 25 km west-southwest of Wudinna has been explored for possible economic epigenetic / hydrothermal gold and base metal deposits formed within buried Proterozoic basement rocks, as well as latterly for possible economic...

During the first year of the project (2006-2007), no work was undertaken on ELs 3731, 3421 or 3611. On EL 3317 Wilgerup, at the Wilgerup North Pod, Centrex undertook 2 phases of RC drilling totalling 135 holes for 12,829 m to provide information to...

The Lock Jurassic sub-bituminous coal deposit was discovered by the South Australian Department of Mines and Energy in 1977. The Lock Coal deposit lies within the eastern portion of the Polda Basin on the Eyre Peninsula. The deposit covers an area of...

The Telephone Dam lead-zinc-silver prospect is located in the north-eastern part of the now renewed Wilcherry Hill EL 4162. During the 1980s and 1990s, diamond, RC and RAB drilling done on this prospect by Aberfoyle Resources had identified a...

A large, 705 square km area surrounding Kimba township was taken up to explore for possible economic buried deposits of Mount Isa or Broken Hill style base metals (Cu-Pb-Zn-Ag), and Tanami style lode gold. The licence lay in the northern part of the...

Exploration for possible basement-hosted iron ore within an area centred approximately 45 km east-northeast of Lock has consisted only of the acquisition of semi-detailed gravity data. The licence ground lies just to the north of the interpreted...

A small licence area located immediately east of Elliston was taken up principally to explore the wholly concealed basement for possible Archaean intrusive-related nickel mineralisation associated with deep-seated faulting along the Polda Basin...

The western 138 square km of EL 4815 has recently been relinquished. No field work took place on this acreage. Only minor desktop investigations were carried out by Lincoln Minerals on the now relinquished ground, due to other project priorities, and...
