Product description:Download The downloadable version of this report is supplied in PDF format. Abstract This report describes the mineral resources and summarises the mineral exploration and mining history of the Dunolly 1:100 000 map area. This information is designed to aid mineral exploration and resource development. Quartz reefs and alluvial placer deposits within the Dunolly 1:100 000 map area have yielded in excess of 53 tonnes of gold, with a current value of AUS$897M. The gold emphasis of this report reflects the high value of gold produced relative to other commodities within the Dunolly 1:100 000 map area. Detailed location, production and geological information for all mines is presented in the digital Dunolly 1:100 000 map area Mine Database which accompanies this report. Most modern exploration programmes undertaken within the Dunolly 1:100 000 map area have targeted gold deposits. Molybdenum, copper, silver, tin, tungsten, lead, antimony, bismuth and nickel have been secondary targets. Exploration and mineral occurrence data, incorporated with new 1:50 000 geological maps and interpretation of airborne magnetic and radiometric data, indicate potential for undiscovered gold deposits within the Dunolly 1:100 000 map area. Underexplored prospective targets include:
