AEROMAGNETIC PROSPECTING FOR IRON ORE ON EYRE PENINSULA, SOUTH AUSTRALIA

Abstract

The analysis of anomalies on the aeromagnetic survey maps of the Middleback Ranges and other areas of Eyre Peninsula in South Australia which were flown in the search for iron‐ore deposits has provided depth estimates which are in good agreement with known and later discovered geological facts. The average error involved in these estimates is of the order of 15 percent.
