The Geological Survey of NSW’s approach to the MinEx Cooperative Research Centre’s National Drilling Initiative.

Summary

The Geological Survey of New South Wales (GSNSW) is undertaking a ten-year project to increase knowledge of basement and cover geology, mineral systems and hydrogeology in five under-explored regions in NSW. The project is part of the MinEx Cooperative Research Centre’s (MinEx CRC) National Drilling Initiative (NDI). GSNSW will acquire new regional geophysics, hydrogeochemical samples, biogeochemical samples and geological field observations, and analyse legacy data and samples before drilling. All data and mapping will be made available to the public.
