An airborne scintillometer survey covering 3370 square miles of Eastern Eyre Peninsula was carried out between December 1953 and July 1954 Avro Anson MK XIX aircraft carrying two scintillometers were used. Those of the 42 major anomalies and 1300 minor anomalies revealed which have been investigated on the ground have been found to be caused by the mass effect of widespread, low grade sources of radioactivity. A discussion of some of the difficulties and limitations of the technique has been included in the report.
