Geophysical survey of magnetite deposits near Gulgong, New South Wales
공공데이터포털
On the recommendation contained in a preliminary report issued by the Bureau of Mineral Resources in 1952, a magnetic survey was made of several deposits of magnetite in the parishes of Puggoon and Tallawang, near Gulgong, N.S.W. The magnetic results are compared with test results from the quarry at the nearby Tallawang deposit and it is shown that the small deposits studied are not likely to be of sufficient interest to the present lease-holders. Attention is directed to the Tallawang deposit where it is possible that further development of the known ore-bodies, will expose additional reserves of magnetite. A detailed magnetic survey of the area is recommended.
Geophysical survey at Tallawang magnetic deposit, Gulgong, New South Wales

Geophysical surveys of the magnetite deposits of Australian Magnetite Pty. Ltd. at Gulgong were made by the Bureau in 1952 and 1953, and revealed that the Tallawang deposit was the most important one. The present report gives the results of a detailed magnetic survey which was made over this deposit in August, 1953. Results show that three concentrations of very strongly magnetic material exist within the Tallawang deposit. The southern concentration is unlikely to contain considerable reserves beyond those in sight. The central concentration has been partly worked and could yield reserves of ore from the west wall of the quarry. The northern concentration, which has not been worked, could yield limited reserves. It is shown that the deposit, as a whole, pitches northwards. Some exploratory drilling is recommended on each of the three concentrations.
