The data contains WIM style areas and strandlines (polygons) of Heavy Mineral Sand mineralisation. See also related dataset MINSAND1M_ARC. Data is derived from various exploration company sources, and has related data in the Minerals and Petroleum sites database (VicMine = minerals.minsite). SITEID_MS can be used to join tables.

This dataset contains interpreted geological data, both units underlying the basins and magnetic (mostly volcanic) units enclosed by the basin sediments. The linear features in the data set are geological boundaries, major faults, lesser faults and dykes. The onshore magnetic, radiometric, topographic and gravity data have been collected by the Geological Survey of Victoria. This has been supplemented by offshore magnetic and bathymetric data collected by the Australian Geological Survey Organisation and deep seismic data collected by the Australian Geological Survey Organisation and company sources. The map attempts to reconcile the onshore geology interpreted in Simons & Moore (1999) with the geophysical responses in a way that is geologically reasonable, and to carry this interpretation offshore at least as far as the Tasmanian sea boundary (generally 39 degrees 12 minutes South). The legend broadly uses the same time breaks as that of the Pre-Permian geological map, but includes younger packages that lie beneath the basin. No attempt has been made to subdivide granitic rocks of a particular age. The dataset is accompanied by other datasets representing lava flows and the basin edges. Lava flows have been interpreted either from intersections in drill holes or from magnetic responses. References: MOORE, D.H., 2002.

Data elements pertaining to the origin, history, composition, structure, features, and processes of the solid Earth, both onshore and offshore.

The dataset displays areas identified by the Geological Survey of Victoria to be of known future interest to the extractive minerals industry. Areas are based on suitable geological occurrence and also take into account existing local government planning schemes. They are intended to provide a guide to local government in developing future planning policy. This dataset was updated in October 2023 to exclude areas where planning controls prohibit extractive industries as at late 2022. The dataset was updated in May 2024 to match the cadastral boundaries where necessary that were updated as part of the Digital Cadastre Modernisation project.

This dataset contains primary geological data, namely outcropping/sub-cropping geological rock units. This layer has been superseded by the Seamless Geology layer - SG_GEOLOGICAL_UNIT_250K The data have been collected by the Geological Survey of Victoria. The dataset is accompanied by other datasets representing structural lines, miscellaneous lines, miscellaneous polygons, metamorphism, and placer deposits.
