THE CRC LEME LEGACY -
EXPLORERS' GUIDE &
FIELD GUIDE
SERIES
Explorers' Guides
This series is about regolith; the layer of weathered material between fresh
rock and fresh air that blankets much of Australia. More specifically, it is about using
regolith indicators to help identify mineral deposits in regolith-dominated terrains.
Mineral exploration is unpredictable at best. Of the thousands of prospective sites
evaluated each year only a very small percentage are promising enough to justify followup
work, and of those only a handful will yield economically viable mineral deposits.
Intelligent and informed exploration – incorporating a comprehensive understanding
of regolith types and processes - shortens the odds in favour of the explorer and increases the chances of success.
Series Editors: D Garnett, G Govett and L Worrall.
CRC LEME Explorer's Guides are available here for free download. A limited print run is available from individual state geological surveys, including the NSW DPI, PIRSA and GSWA.
