  • Australia's Identified Mineral Resources is an annual national assessment that takes a long-term view of Australian mineral resources likely to be available for mining. The assessment also includes evaluations of long-term trends in mineral resources, world rankings, summaries of significant exploration results and brief reviews of mining industry developments.

  • The Australian Resource Reviews are periodic national assessments of individual mineral commodities. The reviews include evaluations of short-term and long-term trends for each mineral resource, world rankings, production data, significant exploration results and an overview of mining industry developments.

  • Australia has significant gas resources capable of meeting the needs of domestic and international consumers for decades. Commercial viability of the resource depends on a number of factors such as geology, infrastructure, resource quality, and water depth. Further exploration is required to bring on Australia's lowest cost gas resources.

  • The National Geochemical Survey of Australia (NGSA) is Australia’s first national-scale geochemical survey. It was delivered to the public on 30 June 2011, after almost five years of stakeholder engagement, strategic planning, sample collection, preparation and analysis, quality assurance/quality control, and preliminary data analytics. The project was comprehensively documented in seven initial open-file reports and six data and map sets, followed over the next decade by more than 70 well-cited scientific publications. This review compiles the body of work and knowledge that emanated from the project to-date as an indication of the impact the NGSA had over the decade 2011-2021. The geochemical fabric of Australia as never seen before has been revealed by the NGSA. This has spurred further research and stimulated the mineral exploration industry. This paper also critically looks at operational decisions taken at project time (2007-2011) that were good and perhaps – with the benefit of hindsight – not so good, with the intention of providing experiential advice for any future large-scale geochemical survey of Australia or elsewhere. Strengths of the NGSA included stakeholder engagement, holistic approach to a national survey, involvement of other geoscience agencies, collaboration on quality assurance with international partners, and targeted promotion of results. Weaknesses included gaining successful access to all parts of the nation, and management of sample processing in laboratories. <b>Citation:</b> Patrice de Caritat; The National Geochemical Survey of Australia: review and impact. <i>Geochemistry: Exploration, Environment, Analysis </i>2022;; 22 (4): geochem2022–032. doi: https://doi.org/10.1144/geochem2022-032 This article appears in multiple journals (Lyell Collection & GeoScienceWorld)
