Australian Geoscience Council recognises Roy Woodall with inaugural National Geoscience Champion award  In recognition of his contribution to geoscience in Australia, Roy Woodall AO FAusIMM has been unanimously elected as the inaugural National Geoscience Champion by the Australian Geoscience Council (AGC).   Roy Woodall’s scientific approach to exploration contributed to many significant ore discoveries in

The SEG Student Chapter at University of British Columbia have requested AIG publicise their upcoming field trip to Mongolia. The trip will visit six major mineral deposits in Mongolia and include a presentation on the regional geology of Mongolia in collaboration with the National University of Mongolia, Ulaanbaatar, as well as a number of cultural

Boart Longyear has unearthed rare footage of copper exploration drilling on Bougainville, Papua New Guinea, in 1964. The 13 minute video depicts triple tube core drilling, then a new technology, but used widely today for minimising core disturbance and maximising core recovery.  The video provides an interesting perspective on how the industry has changed over the

What Makes a Major Mineral Discovery is a one day conference presented by the South Australia Branch of AIG, Friday 6th June 2014 in Adelaide. Have you ever wondered how world class deposits are discovered? Is it sheer geological brilliance, exceptional targeting of ground, great structural interpretation, geophysical interpretation par excellence or just plain good
