RB 2010/00011 Building granite plutons in the Olary Domain, South Australia: a ring dyke model.
Transects made across three discrete granite plutons which outcrop in the Olary Domain of the Curnamona Province have revealed that varying geochemical and lithological zones are common within the individual plutons. The Ninnerie Hill Pluton and the...-

RB 2009/00018 BHEI 2009 - OLARY field excursion to Ameroo Hill, Tommie Wattie [Bore] and the Walparuta Inlier. [September 25-26, 2009].
The Curnamona Province is the southern remnant of the Palaeoproterozoic Pb-Zn belt, and represents but a small fragment of the original superbasin. Geological data supports the idea of the basin being a rift, with sediments in the Broken Hill Domain...-

RB 2008/00004 Definitions of Mesoproterozoic igneous rocks of the Curnamona Province: the Ninnerie Supersuite.
The Curnamona Province has been host to widespread magmatic activity, with several periods of granite emplacement recorded, variously extending from the late Palaeoproterozoic to early Mesoproterozoic. Mesoproterozoic granites and volcanic rocks occur...-

RB 2009/00004 Alteration of uranium-rich granite and its relationship to uranium mineralisation in the Honeymoon area, South Australia.
The Honeymoon uranium deposit lies within a Cainozoic fluvial sandstone unit, and occurs in close proximity to a buried, uraniferous granite body. The uraniferous granite is part of a geophysically-defined suite of buried acid intrusive rocks...-

RB 2009/00010 Curnamona Province exploration review and mineral systems.
Uranium has been the mainstay of mineral exploration and mining in the Curnamona Province of South Australia since the early prospecting activity at Radium Hill in 1906 and Mount Painter in 1910. Larger scale mining and exploration began after the...-

RB 2012/00019 Geochemistry of pre-1570 Ma mafic magmatism within southern Australia: implications for possible tectonic settings and timing of major mineralisation events in South Australia.
Geochemical and isotopic data from mantle-derived mafic rocks provide important constraints on our understanding of the composition and evolution of the lithosphere through time. Since the lithosphere is sensitive to tectonic processes such as...-
