Copper carbonates are sporadically distributed throughout steeply dipping mica schist in a zone up to about 70 ft. wide. The host rocks have been regarded as overturned metamorphosed Burra Group (Torrensian) beds resting on the Aldgate Sandstone...

Report describes these unusual mineral deposits which are currently the only source in Australia of refractory grade sillimanite and filler grade mica.

In a search for possible extensions to existing, almost worked-out poddy deposits of damourite mica and kaolinised sillimanite, that may occur within an area of prospective Barossa Complex Proterozoic basement inlier rocks located south-east of...

Dataset contains Amdel - derived mineralogical and petrological data on the ore and host rocks, plus the mine operator's reports on its plans to resume and optimize production of the unique ore types known to exist in four current mine pits and their...

The aim of this project was to review Australian production and consumption of sillimanite, including gathering data on such topics as raw material sources, production rates, specifications, prices, markets and uses.

The mine was visited on Wednesday May 21st to select sites for drilling the cream clay shale known as the Warren Refractory Shale, so that a better estimation or reserves of this material might be calculated.

24 diamond drill core samples of primary copper ore from the Ukaparinga mine, which is located about 4 km south of Williamstown, plus 3 hand specimen samples of oxidised ore taken from a near surface adit of this mine, have been investigated by...

A strong radiometric anomaly, previously found in pre-Adelaidean basement schist near its contact with Adelaidean Woolshed Flat Shale metasediments at the Pine Ridge prospect, and situated within the Mount Crawford State Forest approximately 7 km...

61 shallow exploratory drillholes were completed in two of nine areas within the lease where it was considered that drilling might uncover additional shallowly buried resources of good quality kaolin. Nine of these holes encountered useable kaolin.

The now relinquished licence sub-block has been explored for possible diamonds, gold and base metal deposits which may have formed in host geological structures that appeared to be associated with deep-seated faults in the Carpentarian basement, which...
