Lineage
The data within this dataset is derived directly from the corporate ORACLE MINLOC Mineral Localities database. An ASCII extraction of the ORACLE database is generated as ASCII delimited files. An MS ACCESS database format is also replicated from the ORACLE database and uses the same table structure. The spatial representation of this database in (ArcView and MapInfo format) is extracted and generated using ArcInfo GIS software to meet the published data standard within the Geoscience Australia data dictionary ( www.ga.gov.au/standards/datadict.html ). The extraction of the spatial GIS datasets is done within ArcInfo using advanced AML code (ORACOV.AML) developed by Dmitar Butrovski, Geoscience Australia.
