A computerised lineament analysis of Landsat digital image data covering the northern portion of the Flinders Ranges has shown a strong correlation between the known mineralisation and fracture structuring peripheral to granites, suggesting that...

This report summarises the relevant results of previous copper exploration in the Yudnamutana Hill area by Utah Exploration Co. and Australian Aquitaine Petroleum Pty Ltd, and suggests an ongoing exploration programme for stratiform copper. It also...

The East Painter uranium deposits were extensively explored by the South Australian Department of Mines during the period 1946 to 1950. Work accomplished comprised driving of five edits and drilling thirty four surface and underground diamond drill...

The MARREE mapsheet area lies in arid country about 400 miles north of Adelaide, South Australia. It includes the town of Marree, on the Alice Springs railway line, and part of the Birdsville and Strzelecki tracks. The area is covered mainly by flat...

A detailed gravity survey was conducted in the Mount Painter area of the northern Flinders Ranges of South Australia during November, 1976. Reduction of the results by graphical and mathematical methods has shown that the bulk density of the schists...

Exploration, initially for rare metal elements, was carried out in the vicinity of diapiric structures intruded by leucogranite in the area between Arkaroola Village and Umberatana Homestead. Work comprising petrography, rock chip sampling, stream...

Investigation of basal Adelaidean Callanna Beds metasediments in the vicinity of the Blue mine and Wheal Turner, north of The Needles in the northern Flinders Ranges, sought to disclose possible Zambian type stratiform massive copper sulphides...

The northern Flinders Ranges were opened up by pastoralists from about 1850 onwards; mineral discoveries date from about 1860 in the Mount Painter Province. The region has been one of desultory mining activities since that date, principally for...

The COPLEY 1:250 000 map area includes the northern Flinders Ranges and the southern part of the Willouran Ranges. It is bounded to the west by the Lake Torrens Sunkland and, to the east, by the Lake Frome Plains. A thick sequence of older Precambrian...

A combined regional and detailed gravity survey carried out over portion of the Yankaninna Anticline in the northern Flinders Ranges delineates an anticlinal basement structure of the Mount Painter Complex, with the density of the basement of less...

Kennecott took up 3 SMLs in the Mount Painter district during 1968 to evaluate known copper-uranium occurrences and to search for new occurrences. At the same time, they secured the ground surrounding four 40-acre Mineral Claims already in their...

In a search for the possible buried source primary sulphide orebodies to historically worked secondary copper mineral occurrences in Adelaidean metasediments exposed in the Arkaroola Creek and Barraranna Creek areas, a programme of prospecting,...
