Mineral prospectivity analysis of the Wagga-Omeo belt in NSW

The Wagga-Omeo Belt in NSW has been a significant tin, gold, silver and copper producer. An analysis of the mineral prospectivity of the region has been undertaken by estimating the number of undiscovered deposits, estimating mineral endowment, and by predicting the likely locations of undiscovered...

description The Wagga-Omeo Belt in NSW has been a significant tin, gold, silver and copper producer. An analysis of the mineral prospectivity of the region has been undertaken by estimating the number of undiscovered deposits, estimating mineral endowment, and by predicting the likely locations of undiscovered deposits. Both spatial prediction (mineral prospectivity mapping - MPM) and quantitative resource assessment (QRA) were undertaken with a focus on tin mineralisation in the region. Although this study is in progress, preliminary results from the analysis of the spatial pattern of known deposits using the weights of evidence method, indicate likely locations of undiscovered tin deposits.
