NT Geological Survey

northern territory geological survey 

The Northern Territory Geological Survey continues to provide world-class geoscientific data and interpretations, particularly in under-explored areas with high potential for future discoveries. NTGS's current targeted geoscience programs are providing a fundamentally revised stratigraphic framework for explorers in western Arnhem Land, and are placing the complex high-grade rocks of the eastern Arunta Region in central Australia in their stratigraphic and tectonic context. Mapping of the central and northern Georgina basin has just been completed, and will be combined with ongoing depth-to-basement studies to provide a vastly improved dataset for phosphate explorers in the basin.
 
"The Geology and Mineral Resources of the Northern Territory" will be released at AGES. This will be a comprehensive overview of the current understanding of the Territory's geology, its currently known resources and resource potential, and will be available as an online version and on CD, with later release in book form.
