The project aims to improve Australia’s ability to discover mineral deposits beneath sedimentary basins by determining whether detrital accessory minerals in sedimentary basins can be an effective exploration tool. This project expects to generate new knowledge on the stability of detrital accessory minerals in the sedimentary cycle using observations from natural rocks and laboratory experiments. Expected outcomes include an assessment of the accessory minerals that are best suited to exploration vectoring studies in sedimentary basins. This should provide significant benefits to government and industry by improving mineral exploration methods and also has implications for geochronology and provenance studies.

该项目旨在通过确定沉积盆地中的碎屑副矿物是否可以成为有效的勘探工具，来提高澳大利亚在沉积盆地下发现矿藏的能力。该项目期望通过对天然岩石的观察和实验室实验，对碎屑类副矿物在沉积循环中的稳定性产生新的认识。预期结果包括对最适合于沉积盆地勘探指导研究的副矿物进行评估。这将通过改进矿产勘探方法为政府和行业带来重大好处，并对地质年代学和物源研究产生影响。
