Events

18/19/20 January 2021, 3 x 3 hour sessions. 9 am to midday.

Learn how to access drill core data within the Australian National Virtual Core Library and geological datasets freely available in the AuScope Discovery Portal, including an introduction to hyperspectral data for ore deposit research and exploration.

This event is postponed to 2021. Learn and experience how new technologies are helping to answer key questions in economic geology, whilst gaining a greater understanding of the technical challenges the exploration and mining industry faces.

We are planning a mineral deposit core logging masterclass at the British Geological Survey, Nottingham, which will be led by PhD students who have previously worked in industry or research which focuses on particular deposit types. This event will be open to members of any SGA chapter.

A pre-conference fieldtrip organised for SGA 2019 in Glasgow. During this fieldtrip we visited ancient Pb-Zn working and Scotgold's active gold mine near Tyndrum.
