In outback Australia, beneath a blanket of red earth, lies an ancient part of the continent that formed over 500 million years ago. The Delamerian Orogen. 

Through a multi-disciplinary approach to geological and geophysical data collection and integration, we shed new insights into Delamerian Orogen—its evolution and its mineral prospectivity.  

As part of Geoscience Australia-led Exploring for the Future Program, this talk will speak to how we sought to unite disjointed geological architecture of the eastern Delamerian Orogen into a cohesive framework to enable us to understand the regional mineral systems and enhance the exploration potential of this under-explored region.
