Mining, Exploration and Geoscience

Outreach

Through innovative products and public events, we aim to share the wonders of geoscience with the community. This is done to:

  • enhance community interest in, and understanding of, geoscience, exploration and mining
  • raise awareness of our broad range of accessible geoscience and resource information.

Our popular and increasing number of geotrails allow you to take an app-based self-guided journey through an area’s geology and landscape.

We also work closely with Australian Earth Science Education to help develop resources for the NSW high school curriculum.
