Undercover Western Warramunga Province: The Rover Field revealed
Speaker: Associate Professor Paul Gow, Acting Group Leader - Total Deposit Knowledge, WH Bryan Mining and Geology Research Centre
Summary: The covered areas of northern Australia have great potential for further mineral discoveries, and development of an improved understanding of the subsurface geology and known mineralisation in such areas is an essential step in the exploration process. Four new publications (DIP023-026) have been released in the Warramunga Province mineral deposit series focussing on the Rover field to the southwest of Tennant Creek, NT. The DIPs comprise regional and individual deposit 3D compilations and accompanying atlases undertaken by W.H. Bryan Mining & Geology Research Centre (BRC).
