This record describes the geology, mining history, mineral resources, and exploration activities for the Dixon Range (SE152-6) and Gordon Downs (SE152-10) 1: 250 000 Sheet areas in the East Kimberley, Western Australia. The study forms part of the National Geoscience Mapping Accord Kimberley-Arunta project The northwestern part of the two sheets covers a structurally complex northeast-trending Early Proterozoic terrane (called the Lamboo Complex) that contains metasediments, mafic and felsic volcanics, and felsic, mafic, and ultramafic intrusives; the southeasternpart of the sheets consists largely of Proterozoic sediments of the Birrindudu Basin and Palaeozoic volcanics and sediments of the Ord Basin.
