Mineral Deposits and Magmatism in Australia Through Time

Created 16/10/2025

Updated 16/10/2025

This short video of approximately 5 minutes illustrates the timing of magmatism and mineralisation across Australia, from 3.5 billion years ago to the present. The video is based on a compilation of geochronology data delivered via the GA Portal in the Geochronology and Isotopes persona, and the compilation of mineral deposits of Huston et al. (2021).
