dc.description.abstract | Available geological data and prospecting records pertaining to the area were collected, and 1983 black-and-white aerial photographs, scale 1:89,000, were obtained. The crew then travelled to Elliott and completed 9 days of field work. | en_US |
dc.description.abstract | The program was concentrated on the central section of the main dune, as well as one sampling traverse covering dunes along the access track. Surface sand samples were collected with a hand auger, usually to a depth of 60cm, giving a 4-5 kg sample. In all, 105 samples were taken. The sample locations were plotted on the 1:100,000 prelimary topographic map of Lake Woods (No. 5562). The samples were taken back to Alice Springs, where they were split, and a portion sent to Analabs in Adelaide for XRF assay of Ti, Y, Zr and Th. Another portion of each sample was later panned by hand, to give a rough visual estimate of the quantity and type of heavy mineral present. The remainder of each sample was stored at Macmahon's premises at 52 Smith Street, Alice Springs. | en_US |
