Summary Sediment and crude oil samples from the Canning Basin and from other locations have been subjected to detailed chemical analysis for compounds which are potentially useful for reconstructing the…
Summary Gold mineralisation is particularly related to the evolution of shear zones and fault systems during and following regional deformation and metamorphism. Because hydrothermal alteration and related mineralisation are a…
Summary Supacrustal rocks in the Kathleen Valley – Lawlers District comprise mafic and ultramafic volcanic rocks with intercalated felsic volcanogenic rocks and black slates that are overlain by conglomerate –…
Summary A three year research project into revegetation of overburden stockpiles is described. Overburden from the Golden Mile was found to be moderately to highly saline, highly sodic, compacted, and…
Summary The study examined the effect of chloride ion and gold telluride on the tendency of gold to vaporise and then deposit during the roasting of pyritic gold ores. Samples…
Summary Refractory pyrite telluride concentrates were examined and the mineralogical association of residual gold was investigated. Possible ways to improve recovery, including fine milling, gravity concentration, magnetic separation, acid leaching…
Summary This report describes the selection and evaluation from seventeen possibilities of a window material with the durability and corrosion resistance to enable a nephelometer to be used routinely for…
Summary A computer program to improve the interpretation of downhole electromagnetic survey data has been developed to run on an IBM compatible PC, and designed to comprehensively model the responses…
Full report title The refinement of extrusive models for the genesis of nickel deposits: implications from case studies at Honeymoon Well and the Walter Williams Formation Summary Komatiite sequences at…
Summary Several gold-bearing sulphidic concentrates were characterised for elemental and phase composition, particle size and surface area, and mineralogically assessed by scanning electron microscopy and electron probe microanalysis. The concentrates…
Summary Problems experienced with corrosion of the coachwork of passenger buses operating in remote areas have been studied in an attempt to explain the reasons for the accelerated corrosion. Keywords:…
Summary The Minninup Shoreline is a Holocene barrier system on the modern coastline between Bunbury and Busselton in Western Australia. Barrier sediments consist of the Safety Bay Sand (7 units)…
