Researchers from the Sustainable Minerals Institute’s (SMI) W.H. Bryan Mining and Geology Research Centre (BRC) are creating a 3D model of Queensland that will place at the fingertips of explorations geologists an unmatched amount of the state’s data resources.
Roughly 600,000 sq km of Queensland’s deep crust has been modelled as part of a collaborative project that aims to equip the state’s resource explorers with information to help focus their efforts.
Predicting where ‘new economy minerals’ will be found in Queensland is set to be easier thanks to a collaborative project between the Sustainable Minerals Institute’s (SMI) W.H. Bryan Mining & Geology Research Centre (BRC) and the Geological Survey of Queensland (GSQ).
Discovering new mineral deposits in Queensland will be easier than ever thanks to a new series of technical atlases published by the Sustainable Minerals Institute’s (SMI) W.H. Bryan Mining & Geology Research Centre (BRC) and their partners at the Geological Survey of Queensland (GSQ).
Moving and managing mine waste safely is an ongoing challenge for the mining industry but research underway at The University of Queensland’s Sustainable Minerals Institute suggests that re-mining the waste could offer an environmental and economic solution.
A new research group at The University of Queensland’s Sustainable Minerals Institute has developed a set of geometallurgical toolkits to improve the management of waste in the mining industry.
