Hartley. Progress reports and final report to licence full surrender, for the period 27/3/1985 to 26/12/1985.
A process of rationalisation of several prior-held CRAE tenements covering Cambrian trough sediments which partly outcrop in the south-eastern Mount Lofty Ranges has led to limited ongoing exploration by that company. Ground-based follow-up of all...-

RB 85/00032 Rocks from the Kanmantoo Trough near Sedan Hill including possible equivalents to the Truro Volcanics.
21 specimens of volcanics and felsic gneisses are heterogeneous in both original lithology and the extent of metamorphic and metasomatic alteration. Strong granitic metasomatism may indicate concealed granitoid plutons. Continuation of andesitic...-

Examination of miscellaneous blocks from the diatreme, lying between 2 and 5 km north of Truro, revealed only two possible tuffs which may be part of a matrix between the ejecta. Other blocks include a lamproite with more ferromagnesian minerals than...-
