Magnetic expression and boundaries of granite areas were delineated. 8 anomalies were designated for follow up.

Exploration of an area extending from 20 km south to 35 km south-west and west of Tarcoola was designed to assess the potential of Archaean to Middle Proterozoic volcanics, granites and sediments for possible gold, base metal or tin deposits of...

3 selected samples of stored drill core, taken on 27/5/1987 from within the depth interval 45.3-93.2 m in SADME Myall Creek RC2 stratigraphic diamond drillhole, were examined petrographically and assayed for certain trace metals.

TARGET: Olympic Dam style Cu-Au-U mineralisation lying on a linear gravity feature extending south of Lake Macfarlane, which has associated magnetic discontinuities; unconformity - related sedimentary U at the Pandurra Formation/Gawler Range Volcanics...

All previously collected rock specimens were reclassified and discussed.

Intensive geophysical exploration work by Afmeco, over selected airborne magnetic and radiometric survey anomalies within the Proterozoic Glyde Hill Volcanic Complex, aimed to test for possible concealed Olympic Dam - type hydrothermal uranium or...

The target of base metal exploration carried out over an area located 50 km north of Kimba was possible Broken Hill or Aggenys - Gamsberg exhalative type stratiform lead-zinc-copper-silver mineralisation associated with banded iron formations in the...

TARGET: Epithermal gold and base metals in acid volcanics of the Gawler Range Volcanic Province, 20 km south-east of Kingoonya. EXPLORATION: Regional and follow-up bulk cyanide leach (BCL) stream sediment sampling at catchment trapsites. RESULTS: It...

A large area centred ~95 km north of Tarcoola was explored initially by grant licensee Afmeco for possible buried economic epithermal / hydrothermal / fault controlled primary uranium mineralisation that may have formed in outcropping or shallowly...

As part of a regional search for volcanic-hosted epithermal gold in the central Gawler Ranges, BHP conducted reconnaissance and follow-up BCL (bulk cyanide leach) stream sediment sampling / resampling (24 plus 24 samples) in the Yeltabinna area. Only...

An area of partly outcropping Proterozoic metavolcanic basement rock located approximately 50 km north of Tarcoola was explored for possible epithermal/hydrothermal uranium, base metal and precious metal deposits. Work consisted of the acquisition and...

TARGET: Possible undiscovered economic gold lodes at the Earea Dam Goldfield, which could form a resource of a size suitable for open pit mining. EXPLORATION: Reconnaissance lode outcrop geochemical sampling, later detailed surface and underground...

TARGET: Possible economic base and precious metal deposits associated with the Gawler Range Volcanics, in an area lying 35 km south of Kingoonya. EXPLORATION: Regional stream sediment and loam sampling, plus an assessment of image-processed aerial...

TARGET: Possible diamondiferous kimberlites, Olympic Dam style Cu-Au-U mineralisation, and base metals associated with chemosedimentary iron formations. EXPLORATION: Ground magnetic and gravity surveys, rock chip and loam sampling, and stratigraphic...

Possible stratabound, Kupferschiefer - style copper sulphide within the basal sediments of the early Neoproterozoic Tapley Hill Formation was the target of exploration in the Pernatty Ridge area. Aberfoyle's work has comprised a review of existing...

In a search for possible epithermal or sedimentary uranium deposits, plus any base metal mineralisation, in an area located east of Lake Gairdner and approximately 70 km south-west of Woomera, the licensee acquired a 6240 line km airborne...

TARGET: Possible epithermal gold and base metal deposits associated with volcanic centres; related hydrothermal alteration deposits; and diamonds. EXPLORATION: Regional and follow-up geochemical sampling (gravel, stream sediment and rock chip, plus...

TARGET: Diamond occurrences over the area covered by the Gawler Range Volcanics. EXPLORATION: - reconnaissance heavy mineral sampling by helicopter; - follow-up of 63 aerial photo anomalies, which included detailed heavy mineral sampling and ground...

New work undertaken on EL 4187 during the 2009-2010 licence year has included: • Ongoing documentation and interpretation of MGD 55 & 56 • Drilling of MGD57 to 1243 m at Emmie Bluff prospect • Down hole EM and IP logging of MGD57 •...

After conducting low level aeromagnetic and radiometric surveys plus ground magnetic and gravity surveys during 1980 and 1981, in a search for possible syngenetic or stratiform base and precious metal deposits, Amoco drilled 6 rotary percussion holes...
