A second day of searching for a missing man, who fled from police more than a month ago after a high-speed car chase on South Australia's Eyre Peninsula, has found nothing significant.

About 50 local police, mounted officers and volunteers scoured a 10sq/km area of remote scrub west of Whyalla on Thursday in the hunt for Scott Redman.

Police believe the 19-year-old was in a car that was involved in a pursuit on the Eyre Highway near Kimba on April 21.

The pursuit was terminated due to safety concerns, with the black SUV found on a dirt road 40km east of Kimba four days later.

SA Police in a statement said the search of challenging terrain concluded on Thursday "having found nothing significant".

Police believe Mr Redman told friends and family he intended to travel to Western Australia but there's no clear information on his location and fears are growing for his wellbeing.
