This spatial dataset is a derivative product of the New South Wales Mineral Occurence Database (also known as New South Wales MetIndEx). It records over 31,000 known mineral occurrences throughout NSW. These records have been compiled from resource and production data compiled from both historic and current mining operations records held by the Geological Survey of NSW. Data records start from a state-wide Metallogenic Mapping program developed by the Survey in the late 1960s and are continuously improved via mandatory reporting. The alternative name MetIndEx refers to the METallics, INDustrial minerals and Exploration discoveries database of economic mineral deposits and occurrences in New South Wales. The data has been migrated over various databases from Microsoft Access to Oracle and SQL Server. The location data has also had multiple datum changes since the original database was compiled. The data is being continuously improved and refined by the custodians on an irregular basis. This data is part of the New South Wales Geoscientific Data Warehouse (NSW GDW) series. {"type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [[[141, -37.7], [141, -28.8], [154, -28.8], [154, -37.7], [141, -37.7]]]} 141.0 154.0 -37.7 -28.8 Geology Mining Show on SEED Web Map documentDigital SEED Web Map Data Quality Statement documentDigital PDF WMS - NSW Mineral Occurrences documentDigital WMS WFS - NSW Mineral Occurrences documentDigital WFS
