Mine waste study assesses secondary prospectivity in the Pine Creek Orogen

A new mine waste characterisation study at Mount Bonnie–Iron Blow and Brocks Creek in the polymetallic Pine Creek Orogen, undertaken by the Sustainable Minerals Institute, highlights prospectivity for critical minerals plus insights into methods for recovery.

New stratigraphic study of the Pedirka Basin

Revised lithostratigraphy of the glacial, fluvioglacial, fluvial, lacustrine and continental redbed formations of the Pedirka Basin in the southeastern NT has led to improved stratigraphic correlations and understanding of energy resource potential for the Northern Territory.

Late Palaeoproterozoic stratigraphic successions described and correlated across the greater McArthur Basin

New evidence of correlations across the fertile Palaeoproterozoic stratigraphy of the greater McArthur Basin is identified in the latest release of stratigraphic characterisation of the Glyde package within the Birrindudu Basin, Tomkinson Province and McArthur Basin.

Neoproterozoic stratigraphy in the Beetaloo Sub-basin re-assigned to the Georgina Basin

Systematic investigation into informally named and described, unexposed stratigraphic succession overlying the Mesoproterozoic Roper Group in the Beetaloo Sub-basin has led to formalised definitions and re-assignment to the Neoproterozoic to Palaeozoic Georgina Basin.

Collaborative seismic to unlock the understanding of western greater McArthur Basin

Geoscience Australia and NTGS have collaboratively acquired the Northwest Northern Territory Seismic Survey (L214) across the Birrindudu Basin and into the northern Tanami region.

NTGS releases age data from Warburton and Pedirka basins

New detrital zircon age dates from the unexposed Warburton and Pedirka basins provide potential correlations with the Amadeus and Copper Basins, leading to an improved understanding of the evolution of the stacked southeastern basins of the NT.
