Abstract

Airborne electromagnetic (AEM) data are being acquired by Geoscience Australia (GA) under the Australian Government’s Onshore Energy Security Program (OESP) in areas considered to have potential for uranium or thorium mineralisation. The surveys are managed and interpreted by members of GA’s AEM Acquisition and Interpretation Project. In contrast to deposit-scale investigations carried out by industry these surveys are designed to reveal new geological information at a regional scale. The Pine Creek AEM survey shown in Figure 1 is comprised of three survey areas: Woolner Granite, Rum Jungle and Kombolgie. The TEMPESTTM AEM system was used for the Woolner Granite and Rum Jungle surveys and the VTEMTM system was used for the Kombolgie survey.
