9 August 2023 – GSA SGEG Facets of Exploration Webinar
Speaker: Anna Petts (Geological Survey of South Australia)
Topic: What can regolith reveal about the rocks below us?
Time:
WA: 12.00pm AWST
NT & SA: 1.30pm ACST
ACT, NSW, QLD, Tas, Vic: 2.00pm AEST
Abstract: When it comes to understanding the cover, you’d expect most
geoscientists in Australia and any country with well developed regolith
would have a great handle on how to observe, name and map these
characteristic units. Yet, regolith teaching in undergraduate is almost
non-existent, despite the epic push in the 1990s and 2000s by CRCLEME,
including CSIRO and Geoscience Australia. With more critical commodities
known to be found near surface and in weathered and transported
materials, it is even more vital that geoscientists are able to
confidently identify, study and sample the regolith. The Geological
Survey of South Australia has prioritised regolith and cover
characterisation in its work structure, and this talk will outline the
advantages of being a ‘cover lover’ in a region that is covered by 75%
regolith!
