Exploration for possible Alligator Rivers (Northern Territory) style uranium deposits occurring in potential host rocks (carbonaceous pelites and carbonate rocks) within an Early Proterozoic metasedimentary sequence underlying a Middle Proterozoic...

Aeromagnetic, ground magnetic and EM surveys, with follow-up rock chip, stream sediment and soil sampling, RAB drilling (688 holes, total 17,553 m) and RC drilling (12 holes, total 1149 m), have defined an extensive zone of anomalous base metal...

Exploration undertaken over an area located 60 km west of Port Augusta targeted possible Broken Hill or Aggeneys - Gamsberg type massive Pb-Zn deposits within Early Proterozoic Hutchison Group banded iron formation metasediments, and also any Early...

In the course of the programme of sampling of rocks for age determination on Northern Eyre Peninsula, an opportunity was taken to check certain stratigraphic relationships, with particular reference to the age of the Tent Hill Formation and Corunna...

Report gives detailed descriptions of two stratigraphic sections that were sampled by the author to submit rock unit specimens for petrological studies.

In an area of limited basement outcrop located between 2 and 5 miles north-northwest of Iron Knob township, the Department's surface traverse channel sampling (969'), percussion boring (643’) and diamond drilling (1270’) tested a low grade...

Based on regional mapping, preliminary maps are presented. The area contains some of the best exposures of Archaean to Early Proterozoic and critical information on missing link (Middle Proterozoic) between Early and Late Proterozoic evolution of the...

13 of 38 wells were completed as production wells. Pump testing showed that 6 were capable of yielding 50 kl/day or more for 2 year period. Salinity was in excess of 10 000 mg/L TDS except near Glendambo where water from 4000 to 8000 mg/L was...

Geology of Lake Superior region outlined. Many similarities in tectonic evolution and depositional style of the 2 provinces. Recommends further research on Gawler Craton.

Geophysical work and 10 wells were drilled using rotary and cable tool, (6331WW 224 - 227, 231 - 238). 1 well in Cowell Basin is capable of yielding 6 L/s. 2 wells in Precambrian bedrock, (1 on EM anomaly), were unsuccessful. 1 well in palaeochannel...

Excursions are on Archaean - Middle Proterozoic geology of Gawler Craton, Precambrian geology of the Adelaide Geosyncline and Cambrian of the Flinders Ranges.

Examines numerous outcrops illustrating the geological and tectonic evolution of the region. This excursion is based on the EPIC tour of the Geological Society of Australia 8th Australian Geological Convention excursion series in February 1986. This...

By 30 June, 1980, mapping of about two-thirds of YARDEA had been completed. Work to date has been concentrated mainly on the Gawler Range Volcanics which extend over most of the northern two-thirds of YARDEA. About 80% of the volcanics have been...

In December, 1979 a display of selected drillcore from the Gawler Craton, South Australia, was exhibited at the core Library complex of the South Australian Department of Mines and Energy. It was organised by the Geological Society of Australia (SA...

In South Australia the Gawler Province displays a history of early Proterozoic orogenic evolution and transitional tectonism leading to deposition of the Gawler Range Volcanics (ca 1500 Ma) on a relatively stable platform. A fragmentary record of...

This excursion guide is a refinement of a 6-day excursion led by Parker, Fanning and Flint in 1980 at the height of economic interest in the basement geology of the Gawler Craton. The interest in those days was for Alligator River - style uranium...
