Instructions for viewing VRMLs

This page links to interactive 3D models (or VRMLs - files written with Virtual Reality Modelling Language), that the user can manipulate and view from different angles.  You will need a plug-in, such as COSMO Player, that will enable your internet browser to display the VRMLs.  COSMO Player is provided with this CD as an installation file.  You will need to follow the steps below (which are also set out in the report).
 
Instructions
1.
Open the CD and then open the folder called " Interactive".   Click on the icon named "cosmo_win95nt_eng.exe" and it will launch with prompts.  Read the first page, close any open Windows programs, then click NEXT.
2.
Agree to the Licence Agreement and click YES.
3.
It will determine which internet browsers are on your system and list some options.  Choose the option that you usually use, e.g. Netscape Communicator 4.5.  Some users will have older systems and will need to choose "Other".  Click NEXT.
4.
Choose the destination folder using the BROWSE button.  Then click NEXT.
The plug-in will now install itself.
5.
It will then ask you if you would like to associate all VRML related files (.wrl, .wrz, .wrl.gz) with Cosmo Player.  Choose YES.
6.
Set up is complete.  You should be able click on the options below and use the VRMLs.



Panglo 3D Au Cut-offs
CRC LEME  created 3D models of Au concentrations at the Panglo deposit using various cut-offs.   These models show all those parts of each regolith unit that have a nominated Au concentration or greater.  The colours match the regolith stratigraphy used in the report.
 

Residual Regolith  Transported Regolith

 
5 ppm cut-off (17k)
1 ppm cut-off (610k)
400 ppb cut-off (2,148k)
4 ppm cut-off (40k)
800 ppb cut-off (845k)
300 ppb cut-off (2,912k)
3 ppm cut-off (76k)
600 ppb cut-off (1,300k)
200 ppb cut-off (4,105k)
2 ppm cut-off (187k)
500 ppb cut-off (1,648k)
100 ppb cut-off (6,919k)
1.5 ppm cut-off (303k)
