Curnamona Geochemistry Compilation

A comprehensive compilation of rock, regolith and groundwater geochemistry across the Curnamona Province and overlying basins. This product is part of the Curnamona Geochemistry module of GA's Exploring for the Future program, which is seeking to understand geochemical baselines within the Curnamona Province to support mineral exploration under cover. Data is sourced from GA, CSIRO and state databases, and run through a quality control process to address common database issues (such as unit errors). The data has been separated by sample type and migrated into a standard data structure to make the data internally consistent. A central source for cleaned geochemical data in the same data format is a valuable resource for further research and exploration in the region.

Purpose

This compilation product is meant as the go-to source for geochemical data (groundwater, regolith and rock) in the Curnamona region. It removes the need for large-scale data synthesis and cleaning in any future projects for the region. Given the scale of data brought together, some overarching treatments and QAQC steps have been applied (outlined in the metadata record). If specific samples are of interest we encourage users to refer to the original data source to confirm provenance and methods.
