Abstract
This Record documents the efforts of Mineral Resources Tasmania (MRT) and Geoscience Australia (GA) in compiling a geochronology (age) compilation for Tasmania, describing both the dataset itself and the process by which it is incorporated into the continental-scale Isotopic Atlas of Australia. The Isotopic Atlas draws together age and isotopic data from across the country and provides visualisations and tools to enable non-experts to extract maximum value from these datasets. Data is added to the Isotopic Atlas in a staged approach with priorities determined by GA- and partner-driven focus regions and research questions. This Tasmanian compilation represents the second in a series of compilation publications (Records and Datasets) for the southern states of Australia, which are a foundation for the second phase of the Exploring for the Future initiative over 2020–2024. It was compiled primarily from data, reports, journal articles and theses provided to GA by MRT. The most current data can be accessed and downloaded from GA’s <a href=https://portal.ga.gov.au/persona/geochronology>EFTF Geochronology and Isotopes Data Portal</a> and MRT’s <a href=https://www.mrt.tas.gov.au/mrt_maps/app/list/map>LISTmap.</a>
