Atlas of Weathered Rocks - Supplementary Files

Supplementary files which accompany the CRC LEME Open File Report 1 and CSIRO Division of Exploration Geoscience Report 390 (1st Revision): Robertson, I.D.M.; Butt, C.R.M. Atlas of weathered rocks. Perth, WA: CSIRO Exploration & Mining; 1997.\nLineage: This report documents research arising from CSIRO/AMIRA (Australian Mineral Industries Research Association Limited) Regolith Geochemistry Projects 1987-1993. The initial research program "Exploration for concealed gold deposits. Yilgarn Block, Western Australia" (1987-1993) had the aim of developing improved geological, geochemical and geophysical methods for mineral exploration that wold facilitate the location of the blind, buried or deeply weathered gold deposits. The program included the following projects:\nP240: Laterite geochemistry for detecting concealed mineral deposits (1987-1991). Leader: Dr R.E. Smith.\nP241: Gold and Associated elements in the regolith - dispersion processes and implications for exploration (1987-1991). Leader: Dr C.R.M. Butt.\nP240A: Geochemical exploration in complex lateritic environments of the Yilgarn Craton, Western Australia (1991-1993). Leaders: Drs R.E. Smith and R.R. Anand.\nP241A: Gold and Associated elements ion the regolith - dispersion processes and implications for exploration. Leader: Dr. C.R.M. Butt.

本数据集为配套《CRC LEME公开文件报告1》与澳大利亚联邦科学与工业研究组织（CSIRO）勘探地球科学部报告390（第一修订版）的补充文件：Robertson, I.D.M.、Butt, C.R.M. 著《风化岩石图集》，西澳大利亚州珀斯：CSIRO勘探与采矿部，1997年。
项目溯源：本报告记录了源自CSIRO/澳大利亚矿物工业研究协会有限公司（AMIRA）1987-1993年风化壳地球化学项目的研究成果。其初始研究项目“西澳大利亚州伊尔冈地块隐伏金矿勘探（1987-1993）”旨在开发改进的地质、地球化学与地球物理勘探方法，以助力定位盲矿、埋藏矿或深度风化金矿。该项目包含以下子课题：
P240：隐伏矿床探测用红土地球化学（1987-1991），负责人：R.E.史密斯博士。
P241：风化壳中的金及伴生元素——分散过程及其对勘探的启示（1987-1991），负责人：C.R.M.巴特博士。
P240A：西澳大利亚州伊尔冈克拉通复杂红土环境中的地球化学勘探（1991-1993），负责人：R.E.史密斯博士与R.R.阿南德博士。
P241A：风化壳中的金及伴生元素——分散过程及其对勘探的启示，负责人：C.R.M.巴特博士。
