A major current source of Australia's export wealth derives from mining of gold and copper ores. Many of our largest ore deposits, such as those at Mt Isa and Broken Hill, formed in paleo- environments equivalent to the active submarine volcanic arcs which we are proposing to study. Modern systems yield the vital clues to explore intelligently for fossil equivalents. We propose a two-pronged approach in world-renowned analytical and experimental laboratories to understand active processes that will guide experimental simulations under controlled conditions. Results are critical for national economic advantage and the maintenance of Australian Earth science in the forefront of global research effort.

目前澳大利亚出口财富的一个主要来源来自黄金和铜矿的开采。我们许多最大的矿藏，如伊萨山和布罗肯山的矿藏，形成于相当于我们正在研究的活跃海底火山弧的古环境中。现代系统产生了重要线索，可以智能地探索化石的等价物。我们在世界著名的分析和实验实验室中提出了一种双管齐下的方法，以了解将指导受控条件下的实验模拟的活动过程。研究结果对国家经济优势和保持澳大利亚地球科学在全球研究工作中的领先地位至关重要。
