Up to 30,000 feet of strata referred to the Adelaide System outcrop over the ORROROO 1:250,000 mapsheet area in the upper Mid-North of the State. The majority of the area has been geologically mapped, and only some localities in the south-west require...

Reconnaissance mapping has located twelve deposits of rock suitable for bituminous surface treatment, screenings. Probable reserves, suitability of each site for quarrying and exploration necessary to prove the deposits are described.

The Carrieton 1:63, 360 map area lies about 200 miles north of Adelaide, South Australia. It contains folded rocks of the Burra, Umberatana and Wilpena Groups of the Adelaide System, of Upper Precambrian age; total thickness of these rocks exceeds...

To aid in the correlation of deep refractors in the Frome Embayment, a series of eight seismic refraction velocities were determined on the Proterozoic and Palaeozoic outcropping sections in the Blinman-Wirrealpa area of the Flinders Ranges. The...

The site of a proposed silo at Spalding was investigated by two cable tool holes 13m and 15m deep. The drilling intersected Pleistocene clays of the Pooraka Formation and Tertiary gravels to about 12.5m depth overlying steeply dipping and highly...

Rocks belonging to the upper part of the Adelaide System and the overlying Cambrian, outcrop in the eastern part of the Beltana area in the Nuccaleena Dome, and form the basement underlying the more recent sediments to the west. In the central and...

The Pualco Range is 45km south-south east of Yunta, South Australia, and contains 3300m of a formation (?Appila Tillite, Precambrian, Adelaidean) characterised by massive tillite with quartzite beds. This forms the base of the Umberatana Group and...

A section was measured across the Umberatana Group - Wilpena Group boundary near Wilmington in the Southern Flinders Ranges, on the western margin of the Adelaide Geosyncline. Grey red massive siltstones are correlated with the Reynella Siltstone...

Exploration for possible economic buried gold and/or copper mineralisation that may have formed in a volcanic or porphyry- related setting, within an area of the Adelaide Geosyncline situated 130-140 km north-northeast of Adelaide, has comprised the...

Exploration for gold and copper mineralisation within an area located immediately south of Mount Bryan and 19 km north of Burra was aimed principally at finding deposits of copper oxide and carbonate ores similar to those mined historically at Burra...

As part of a project examining the sequence of Adelaidean cover rocks that surrounds the Pernatty Culmination on the southern Stuart Shelf for possible economic stratiform copper mineralisation of the various styles known to be present in the Mount...

A small area located approximately 20 km north-northwest of Orroroo was taken up to explore for possible diamondiferous kimberlite intrusions. Three known kimberlite dykes, one of which is diamondiferous, trend in a north-westerly direction through...

Exploration for copper mineralisation within a now relinquished licence portion centred 18 km north-northeast of Kapunda was aimed at finding deposits of oxide and carbonate ores similar to those mined historically at Burra and Kapunda. Work performed...

Gold, base metal and diamond exploration carried out over a small area located immediately south-east of Truro has comprised detailed BLEG stream sediment sampling across the licence, limited rock chip geochemical sampling of quartz veins, alluvium...

Exploration for copper mineralisation within a small licence area surrounding Mount Tinline, located approximately 20 km south of Spalding ,was aimed principally at finding deposits of oxide and carbonate ores similar to those mined historically at...

Exploration for copper mineralisation within a now relinquished licence portion centred 21 km east of Spalding was aimed at finding deposits of oxide and carbonate ores similar to those mined historically at Burra and Kapunda. Work performed was the...

Exploration for copper mineralisation within a now relinquished licence portion centred 10-15 km north-west of Eudunda was aimed at finding deposits of oxide and carbonate ores similar to those mined historically at Burra and Kapunda. Work performed...

Exploration of a small area located north of Oodla Wirra has targeted possible buried economic Mount Grainger or Telfer - style epigenetic gold mineralisation hosted by altered and structurally disconformable Adelaidean metasediments, and has also...
