10 fully cored shallow holes (total 543.2 m) were rotary mud drilled at four localities by the Australian Commonwealth Bureau of Mineral Resources (BMR) to elucidate the cover stratigraphy, particularly the upper age limit of the Etadunna Formation,...

The subject exploration licence was taken up for a 1-year term to enable ETSA and SADME to jointly conduct exploration for possible Triassic coal basins that might be concealed beneath alluvial cover in sparsely drilled areas to the north and...

Results of mapping, particularly basal Mesozoic sandstone unit, description of sections and borehole study of cuttings from 14 holes.

The Kapunda region is principally one in which prolonged denudation, or lowering of the landsurface, has been operative over the past 100 Ma, while the present topographic amplitude of the region is also at its greatest since the onset of the...

The incidence of sedimentary hard bars lying above the Telford Basin Upper Series coal measures was investigated using existing drillhole data, to assess the suitability of a bucket-wheel excavator for removing the overburden to these seams, and to...

The Arrowie Area is situated in the Central Flinders Ranges and constitutes the southeastern corner of COPLEY (i.e. 1:250 000 sheet). Approximately 50% of the area is mantled by Cainozoic sediments distributed in part of the western edge of the Frome...

New sources of road metal were sought in three areas of the Council district on a basis of regional stratigraphy and structure. On the Willowie Plains, lime-cemented Telford Gravel forms an excellent road surface, and several new sources of this...

The report aimed to place the Cainozoic and Quaternary stratigraphic units of various workers into a stratigraphic framework. Correlations based on lithology and biostratigraphy were made between northern and southern parts of the state and within the...

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...

The Frome 1: 250 000 map covers the northern part of the South Australian portion of the Frome Embayment. The embayment is essentially the eastern portion of a Mesozoic basin, developed on Palaeozoic and Precambrian rocks during Upper Jurassic time by...

The revised digital geology map of the Cultana 1:100 000 map sheet and accompanying geological descriptions in this report are the first components of the 2nd edition PORT AUGUSTA 1:250 000 map sheet to be completed. The subject map sheet occupies the...

Cultana is located on parts of the north-eastern Eyre Peninsula, northern Spencer Gulf and south-western Flinders Ranges, and is underlain by rocks of the Mesoarchaean-Mesoproterozoic Gawler Craton, the Neoproterozoic Adelaide Geosyncline, Torrens...

Ongoing exploration of copper prospects within diapiric raft blocks of Adelaidean metasediments at Beltana has concentrated on the vicinity of historic underground mine workings where evidence of primary sulphide mineralisation can still be seen at...
