Title

NSW Drillholes Mineral

Alternative title(s)

NSW Boreholes Mineral

Abstract

Locations of drillholes for minerals (substances such as quartz and gemstones) in NSW and associated information such as depth and date drilled. This is the mineral subset of the NSW drilling dataset available from Geoscientific Data Warehouse. The drillhole data has been compiled over time from various sources including mineral exploration reports and departmental records. It provides drill collar information for mineral drillholes and associated data including classification of drilling purpose, drill type, licencee/driller information, date the hole was drilled and depth of hole drilled, azimuth/dip and references. This data is part of the New South Wales Geoscientific Data Warehouse (NSW GDW) series.

Lineage

The primary data source for the Mineralsdataset is company exploration reports supplied to the Department of Industry as part of the statutory reporting requirements for exploration licences under the NSW Mining Act 1992. Information regarding holes drilled by the Department of Industry has also been included. Approximately 22 000 drillholes were captured on a contract basis by Tech and Field Surveys from July, 1998 - July, 2000. During the validation of this dataset by Departmental staff a number of additional drillholes drilled prior to 2000 have been identified and added to the database.These records form the basis of the drillholes dataset. In 2000, the Department formally introduced digital reporting of drillholes records in statutory reporting. Drillhole records were stored in the Digital Imaging Geological System (DIGS) until 2009 when they were extracted into a SQL Server database. Data continues to be captured from compulsory company reporting under the NSW Mining Act 1992 and extracted from DIGS. As new reports being non-confidential, the data is released as part of this dataset and made available to the public. Validation work continues to this day and the accuracy of the dataset is being continuously improved.
