Central West Symposium - Cobar 2000: Extended Abstracts
The Central West region of New South Wales has been a major source
of natural resources for more than one hundred years. The region
has great potential for further mineral discoveries and will continue
to produce significant agricultural wealth. This symposium brought
together geoscientists and land scientists who are working in, or
have an interest in, the Central West region of New South Wales.
The symposium showcased the results of recent research
and surveys undertaken by mining and mineral exploration companies
exploring in the area, the New South Wales Department of Mineral
Resources, through its Discovery 2000 program, other government
agencies and research organisations, such as the Cooperative
Research Centre for Landscape Evolution and Mineral Exploration
and a number of Universities. In addition to presenting new research
findings, the symposium provided a forum for discussion, an opportunity
for participants to update their knowledge of this important region
and a venue to meet old friends and make new contacts.
Major themes for the symposium were:
- Geology and Mineralisation
- Geomorphology and Landscape Evolution
- Regolith, Soils and Mineral Exploration
