Critical Minerals South Australia
Advancing knowledge to support critical minerals discovery and exploration in South Australia.
National Drilling Initiative (NDI)
To stimulate mineral exploration beneath cover by providing industry with new data and new constraints on the geological framework and mineral prospectivity.
Exploring for the Future
Exploring for the Future is an Australian Government program led by Geoscience Australia. The Program’s aim is to drive investment in the resources and agricultural sectors by providing industry and land and water managers with pre-competitive data about potential mineral, energy and groundwater resources.
