Role

Principal Investigator

Description

Past research on Mt Carlton has concentrated on the geological structures exposed in the open pit. The aim of this project is to map the region around the pit areas and develop a geological model that links the deposit to nearby prospects; and work out the extent to which later extensional structures have dismembered and displaced mineralisation. This work is a continuation of the GSQ North Queensland project and work conducted by one PhD student and a post-doctoral fellow who has obtained dates for many of the rock units, but does not have a coherent regional geological model to work with.
