The Lower Cambrian rocks of South Australia contain a number of stratiform lead, zinc and copper deposits. Work at Sellick Hill has indicated that a massive Archaeocyatha-bearing limestone carries anomalous amounts of lead and zinc. Basal arkose-siltstone beds also contain high lead concentrations. Geochemical exploration techniques are being used to assess the economic potential of the area.
