MINERALS UPDATE
 

EVENT INVITATION


The Stavely Arc Uncovered

A new Australian mineral exploration search space

Full program now available

27 and 28 June 2018 
Spring Street Conference Centre
Mezzanine Level
1 Spring Street Melbourne

Day one: Technical presentations and interactive demonstrations
Day two: Visit to drill core library to view pre-competitive drill core.

We invite you to join us with the Minister for Resources the Hon. Tim Pallas MP, to explore exciting new concepts, findings and opportunities resulting from the recent pre competitive geoscience program in the Stavely Arc in western Victoria, undertaken by the Geological Survey of Victoria and Geoscience Australia.

Register here

Through a series of technical presentations and interactive demonstrations we will discuss mineral prospectivity in Stavely Arc rocks. The event aims to provide a geological narrative for current and future mineral explorers to develop effective mineral exploration strategies in what is a genuine greenfields mineral exploration opportunity.

Following the technical program, the Geological Survey of Victoria will display stratigraphic and mineralised drill core samples from the Stavely Arc at its drill core library.

Catering will be provided.

We look forward to seeing you in Melbourne!
