The Australian Geological Survey Organisation acquires and maintains extensive databases of airborne magnetic and radiometric surveys, digital elevation models and gravity measurements. These data can be accessed and processed to present information ranging from continental scale to detail at 1:25 000 scale. When data relating to the Broken Hill area of New South Wales are imaged it is possible to infer the distribution of similar rocks elsewhere in Australia and possible tectonic origins for the rocks hosting the Broken Hill Ag-Pb-Zn deposit. Interpretations using 1: 100 000 and 1 :25 000 scale data facilitate the production of detailed solid geology maps.
