A drill hole database for the Paterson airborne electromagnetic (AEM) survey, Western Australia

Created 16/10/2025

Updated 16/10/2025

The Paterson drill hole database was compiled to constrain interpretation of airborne electromagnetic data acquired over the outcropping province and immediate surrounds. The data were sourced from the Geological Survey of Western Australia's WAMEX database while loges were captured from pdfs of exploration reports. The database contains locations for over 6500 drill holes with geological logs compiled for approximately 4300. There are two resources available: 1. GA Record 2009/031 - A drill hole database for the Paterson airborne electromagnetic (AEM) survey, Western Australia in PDF format 2. Drill hole database ZIP File (includes CSV files suitable for import into GIS, drill hole management or mine planning software)
