Abstract
<div>This Record documents the efforts of Geoscience Australia (GA) in compiling a New South Wales (NSW) Uranium–Lead (U–Pb) geochronology interpreted age compilation (version 1.0), utilising the MinView data from the Geological Survey of New South Wales (GSNSW), GA’s ‘in house’ storage of SHRIMP (Sensitive High Resolution Ion Micro Probe) ages, and other disparate publication sources e.g. academic journal articles and university theses. Here we describe both the dataset itself and the process by which it is incorporated into the continental-scale Isotopic Atlas of Australia. This initial release of the NSW geochronology compilation comprises of 1007 U–Pb ages of named and unnamed rock units in NSW. </div><div><br></div><div>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 NSW U–Pb compilation represents the third 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 the period 2020–2024. All geochronology compilations in this series of Isotopic Atlas of Australia Records are available online from the Geochronology and Isotopes Data Portal.</div><div><br></div>
