As part of a search for possible high crustal level, Olympic Dam - type IOCG deposits hosted by Mesoproterozoic basement rocks, Eromanga Uranium undertook deep diamond drill testing of two large, semi-coincident magnetic/gravity anomalies recognised...

Uranium Equities, the licensee parent and operator of the seven Marla Project tenements, is exploring them with the aim of discovering economic iron oxide - associated copper–gold±uranium (IOCGU) deposits, that it considers may have given rise to a...

The Oodnadatta Project consisted originally of twelve exploration licenses covering 7125 square km in far northern South Australia, this mainly being ground situated to the south and south-east of Oodnadatta. Uranium Equities Limited (UEQ) believed...

Nine licence areas occupying a 70 km x 30 km region overlying a west-northwest trending structural corridor situated along the northern margin of the Gawler Craton, have been explored for possible buried large-scale deposits of iron oxide - associated...

Mineralisation analogous to that occurring at the giant Canadian Voisey's Bay Ni-Cu deposit, and Olympic Dam style Cu-Au mineralisation, were the conceptual targets of exploration in the Maralinga area, 40 to 80 km south and south-west from Ooldea....

A comprehensive data review was carried out, influenced by new concepts and techniques. One licence (EL 2421) was accessed for reconnaissance calcrete and lag sampling. Weak calcrete geochemical responses are thought to be related to cover...

Exploration for iron oxide-hosted gold and base metals over a wide area spreading NW-SE, north-east from Coober Pedy and near Lake Cadibarrawirracanna, was initially by review of historical data and interpretation of airborne geophysical data. A...

Exploration for Fe-oxide hosted Cu/Au deposits included a review of historic exploration results and interpretation of Open File aeromagnetic and gravity data. The work failed to identify any significant anomalies within the area relinquished.

Deposition of the Early Cambrian Ouldburra Formation, a mixed siliciclastic/carbonate, marine carbonate and evaporite succession, occurred in the shallow marine setting of the Manya Trough. The observed variations between the facies are interpreted...

Possible potash and halite resources in evaporite - rich sediment sequences of the Tallaringa Trough, lying at depths that might be suitable for solution mining, were the initial targets of exploration in the Wilkinson Lakes area. Following a...

An area centred approximately 115 km south-east of Marla was taken up to explore for possible economic buried gold and base metal mineralisation that may have formed in Archaean to Proterozoic basement rocks or the overlying Palaeozoic sedimentary...

An area centred approximately 120 km west of Coober Pedy was taken up to explore for possible economic buried IOCG, Challenger type gold-only or MVT base metal mineralisation that may have formed in Archaean to Proterozoic basement rocks or in the...

An area centred ~145 km west-northwest of Coober Pedy, and extending northwards for ~40 km from near the Anne Beadell Highway, has been explored for possible buried economic mineralisation that may occur in basement rocks of the Gawler Craton and the...

An area centred ~150 km WSW of Coober Pedy has been explored for possible buried economic sandstone-hosted secondary uranium deposits which might have formed within northeastwards-draining tributaries of the Tertiary Tallaringa Palaeochannel. Another,...

Golden Cross Operations Pty Ltd ('Golden Cross') commenced mineral exploration activities in South Australia with the objective of discovering significant IOCG deposits with the potential to support a major mining operation. In mid-2009, four tenement...

EL 4695 Giddinna, consisting of three separate small sub-blocks, was pegged as strategic acreage to provide continuity with two other pre-existing Golden Cross tenements in the Coober Pedy Group, ELs 4427/5594 Oolgelima and 4966 Stuart Range, and was...

An area centred ~150 km west of Coober Pedy, that is located mostly north-west of and that also has a small part lying immediately south-east of the Karari Fault, a major crustal structure which has controlled deposition at the southern limit of the...

As part of a regional search for possible major deposits of IOCG type mineralisation, Golden Cross Resources took up six exploration tenements in the northern Gawler Craton that lie to the north and north-east of Coober Pedy, and which are within or...
