Stratigraphic drilling in the Bute and Port Broughton region of northern Yorke Peninsula has outlined the nature and subsurface distribution of Adelaidean and pre-Adelaidean rocks. The Adelaidean sediments are relatively flat lying, moderately thin and are comparable with Stuart Shelf strata. The pre-Adelaidean rocks consist of a thick, steeply dipping succession of interlayered, low grade meta-siltstone and dolomite intruded by granite. Copper mineralization has been located at several different horizons within the Adelaidean strata.
