Last week, MinEx CRC hosted the ‘MiNext’ Geological Survey Forum at Geoscience Australia, bringing together representatives from Geological Surveys across the country. 

This important meeting marked the first step in a national consultation process to help shape future collaborative research directions beyond MinEx. While discussions are ongoing, several key themes are already emerging: 

  • The need for sustained national geoscience infrastructure
  • The growing opportunity for AI ingeoscience
  • Theimportance of collaboration at a national scale
  • Time taken between discovery and mining

The forum provided valuable insights and a strong foundation for the next stages of consultation, with further engagement planned across industry and the research community in the coming months:

10 June, Perth

We hope to continue to build momentum as we work towards defining the next phase of impactful, national-scale minerals research in Australia.
