Cost effective exploration and discovery of new mineral resources is being realised through advances and expertise in detection technologies, mineral systems, resource characterisation and data analysis.

Exploration through cover

Using our expertise in geology, geophysics, geochemistry and various detection technologies, we are providing new tools, technologies and techniques to guide mineral exploration and resource discoveries obscured by deeply weathered rock.

Deep Earth Imaging: future digital technology to explore deeper

We’re developing Deep Earth Imaging technology that will allow us to accurately map and discover deeply buried mineral, energy and water resources.

Rapid resource characterisation

Our teams of researchers are developing tools and solutions for rapid mineral characterisation to deliver cost-effective exploration and discovery, processing efficiencies, productivity improvements and optimal resource management.

Big data for earth sciences

Our expertise in interoperability and big data integration using high performance computing is making geoscience research more effective.
