Hello folks,
The Australian Institute of Geoscientists have just published the following very helpful resource in their newsletter. It may be both helpful and reassuring to landowners and members of the local community in general as it explains the mining tenement and exploration process fairly simply but pretty well. It also reminds people that mining companies wanting access to private land for low impact exploration work, must first establish an access and compensation agreement with the landowners.
I hope people find this really enlightening and helpful. Any questions please call Terry Delahunty on 0419 340 767, or leave a message on our webpage…

Shot in the Ballarat and Bendigo regions, Minerals Exploration in Victoria includes footage and information on exploration drill rigs and other exploration activities that take place on public and private land.
The video complements the MCA and Victorian Farmers Federation Land Use Guide which provides information to private landholders on rights and obligations of explorers and landowners and advice on negotiating land access.
The video outlines minerals exploration techniques including desktop research to drilling and core analysis explained by staff from exploration companies.
It will be a useful resource for explorers in their interactions with landowners to support the continued growth of mineral exploration in regional Victoria and the ongoing job opportunities for regional communities.
