Exploration was undertaken for Telfer - style stratabound gold at the contact between the Tapley Hill Formation and the Tarcowie Siltstone, and for placer type gold in glacial sequences such as the Appila Tillite and Wilyerpa Formation (94 stream...

Exploration for Neoproterozoic stratabound gold in part of the northern Nackara Arc included performing stream sediment geochemical sampling (999 samples) and reconnaissance soil (64 samples) and rock chip (60 samples) sampling near Gum Dam, over an...

Detailed geological mapping and rock chip geochemical sampling of inferred Telfer style gold prospects in the Waukaringa area, 40 km north-northwest of Yunta, have identified anomalous gold in silicified sandstones, quartzites and quartz veins, as...

Exploration for possible large tonnage, low to medium grade, open pit mineable epigenetic vein gold deposits in the Baratta Mining Field district commenced by working within the three mining leases currently held over the principal historic mine...

Gold/copper exploration being undertaken north-west of Yunta has comprised rock chip geochemical sampling and BLEG stream sediment sampling. No significant gold anomalies were identified from the drainage bulk samples. High assay values of up to 8.8...

In an area located approximately 7 to 20 miles north of Orroroo, a number of previously worked old small barite and copper prospects were examined in detail, and recommendations were made for additional work to be done, e.g. bulldozer trenching, soil...

An exploration licence area covering 120 square miles in the vicinity of the Eurelia Anticline was taken up by Utah Development to search for possible economic Zambian Copperbelt-style stratiform copper deposits within upper Adelaidean metasedimentary...

Exploration for possible economic gold and other metallic minerals in the Waukaringa Syncline area has consisted of limited percussion drilling (16 ?vertical holes for a total penetration of 1400 feet) to test for any extensions to the shallow, upper...

Exploration for possible lode extensions of stratiform base metal mineralisation worked at the historic Baratta - Eukaby mines has comprised gridding, geological mapping, costeaning, rock chip sampling, and exploratory inclined percussion/diamond core...

During base metal exploration conducted in the hills on the eastern side of the Springfield Basin, just south of Cradock township, minor copper and lead anomalies were disclosed by regional stream sediment sampling (1090 samples assayed). There...

The near-surface base and precious metal potential of several possibly gossanous ironstone outcrops, that exist within a north-east trending broad domal structure in the Umberatana Group extending for 5-15 miles east of Yunta, were tested by limited...

Orientation geochemical sampling, and 1:25,000 scale geological mapping that included long sectional mapping of four railway cutting bedrock exposures in the Eudunda area, revealed pervasive low grade stratiform copper mineralisation in Sturtian...

Exploration for possible economic stratabound / hydrothermal deposits of base metals and perhaps also uranium, within a large area surrounding Peterborough, has consisted of field inspection and rock chip geochemical sampling of known historic mines,...

Work carried out at the Ajax and Waukaringa mine prospects included an aerial reconnaissance, grab sampling of mine tailings heaps and limited detailed stream sediment sampling plus, at the Ajax prospect, the drilling of 5 vertical rotary percussion...

A small area covering part of the Meadows Fault scarp and part of the adjoining Tertiary-Recent Meadows Basin has been explored for inferred sediment-hosted primary gold mineralisation that may have formed in favourable Neoproterozoic bedrock...

A small area centred ~14 km north-east of Yunta that straddles the Barrier Highway has been explored for possible economic vein-style and structurally controlled gold which may have formed within Adelaidean bedrock sediments. During the 2013-2014...

Copper Range's review of literature relating to the modern-era mineral exploration history of the Kapunda district, which had included them studying reports written by Adelaide & Wallaroo Fertilizers that are held in private company archives,...

Exploration of two small licence subareas centred respectively 18 km east of Yunta and 29 km south of Manna Hill consisted only of the collection, during preliminary field reconnaissance traversing, of 221 surface rock chip and soil samples to send...

It has lately been shown that the gold grades previously determined from a standard laboratory analysis of grab, rock chip and channel samples collected from Mount Grainger Goldfield may be unreliable, due both to the ore mineralogy and to the patchy...
