The 41-year-old Andamooka woman was driving a white 2012 Ford Territory, SA registration S254BCX, which was found abandoned and unable to be driven near Blue Dam, east of Andamooka, on December 13.

Police conducted an extensive air and ground search operation, including specialist dive teams, which failed to locate any sign of Ms Graf.

On Monday, police were undertaking a further aerial search focusing on an area between Blue Dam and Andamooka, 32km from Roxby Downs, expanding the area already covered during extensive ground searches.
