The continents have been rifted, or broken up, and collided, or re-assembled, along major zones of weakness many times throughout Earth's history. Boundaries between such continental domains focus large-scale movements of fluids that can produce giant ore deposits. This study will provide new perspectives on the localisation of world-class economic deposits, the Earth resources on which society depends. Innovations in imaging the deep Earth beneath continents, and in numerical modelling, will maintain our high international profile in research relevant to National Priority 1.6 (Developing Deep Earth Resources). Unique 3D geological maps of regions down to 250km will make the composition of deep Earth regions newly accessible to geoscientists and all potential endusers.

在地球历史上，大陆曾多次沿着主要的薄弱地带被裂开、或分裂、碰撞或重新组装。这些大陆区域之间的边界集中了大规模的流体运动，可以产生巨大的矿藏。这项研究将为世界级经济存款的本地化提供新的视角，这是社会赖以生存的地球资源。在大陆下地球深处成像和数值模拟方面的创新，将保持我们在与国家优先事项1.6(开发地球深部资源)相关的研究方面的国际知名度。独特的250公里以下区域的3D地质图将使地球科学家和所有潜在的最终用户能够获得新的地球深层区域的组成。
