Weathering, erosion and deposition are all around us. Without these processes we would not have our mountains, river valleys, sandy beaches or even the soil in which we grow our food. This booklet outlines the processes of weathering, erosion and deposition for the information of teachers and students. Inlcudes case studies about the formation of many Australian landforms such as Uluru, the Warrumbungles and the Bungle Bungles. The booklet also includes reproducible student activities that provide students with fun and easy ways to learn about the processes that shape the Earth. - 50 page booklet - 8 student activities - suggested answers A comprehensive resource to introduce your students to the concept of regolith, an important way of looking at, and mapping, the landscape. Suitable for primary Years 5-6 and secondary Years 7-12.

Australia through Time charts the history of Australia from a geological perspective. Explore the evolution of life, palaeogeography, sea levels, climate change and Australia's major mineral deposits. The geological time scale is based on A Geological Time Scale 2004 Gradstein Ogg & Smith. Downloads are available in a number of formats. Alternatively, you can download a complete A1 version, in 4 x A3 sections.

Developed in consultation with Emergency Management Australia (EMA), this kit defines and maps major hazards affecting Australia - earthquakes, tsunamis, landslides, volcanoes, severe storms, cyclones, bushfires, floods and droughts. This kit helps students and teachers recognise risks from different natural hazards and the practical steps we can all take to reduce their effects. The Australian Natural Hazards Education Map Kit contains: - eight colour A3 poster maps with descriptive text - eight blackline A4 map masters - background information on each hazard - student activities - Emergency Management Australia hazard action cards Suitable for primary years 5-6 and secondary years 7-8.

This interactive training module is an introduction to the theory, application and interpretation of gamma-ray spectrometry for regolith science. It uses descriptions, diagrams and three dimensional models to describe gamma-ray spectrometry for regolith science. The tutorial was created by Geoscience Australia and the Cooperative Research Centre for Landscape Environments and Mineral Exploration.

These Crystal Models are part of the Exploring Minerals and Crystals booklet and can be used to explore crystal shapes in high school and college geology. They can also be used independently to discuss three dimensional shapes in primary school mathematics.

Printed colour bookmark (295mm x 70mm) that shows a simple geological timescale (2012) on one side. The back includes a brief explanation of the geological timescale and contact information for Geoscience Australia.

Four posters approximately A1 in size (31.5 x 25.59 inches) on prehistoric creatures. Each creature is described with its name, diet, geological period, dimension, and interesting facts. Full-colour sketches are included on the posters. Creatures are Brachiosaurus, Trilobite, Stegosaurus, and Tyrannosaurus Rex.
