As part of the Department of Resources New Economy Minerals Initiative, the BRC is compiling an atlas of many of the major deposits in the Northeast Queensland.  Outputs from this project will serve as a resource for explorers to improve their capability to recognise the signatures and haloes of major deposits in the region, and to provide material which is complementary to the core collections being assembled in the state core libraries.

Each Deposit Atlas contains a pdf document describing the deposit system, discovery history, geophysical and geochemical signatures and alteration of the system as well as a 3D Atlas datasets of all publicly available data. 

The 3D Atlas datasets are compiled in Geoscience Analyst, a free 3D visualization and communication software for integrated, multi-disciplinary earth models and data. Download the software here
