Using NCRIS-enabled laser technology, a study on the 2021 La Palma eruption demonstrates how analysing magma chemistry over time can enhance volcanic monitoring and forecasting, potentially mitigating future eruption hazards globally.

Have you heard of forensic seismology, the emerging field that studies human-made Earth vibrations, including nuclear explosions? Our AuSIS team recently stepped into it in collaboration with the RAAF to better detect unexploded bombs.

In November 2021, Chalice Mining Limited released a maiden resource statement for the Julimar polymetallic mineral deposit in WA — an exciting milestone for Chalice on the path to delivering palladium, nickel, copper and platinum for clean energy technologies. Equally impressive is the decades-long backstory to the Julimar discovery, with NCRIS enabled seismology at the heart.

Our spectrometry wizards at Macquarie University’s MQ GeoAnalytical laboratory (MQGA) are at it again, innovatively applying their new age-dating technique to novel science challenges outside of the geology domain.

What do fast wifi, aerogard and HyLogger have in common? All three are CSIRO science innovations, but the third you may not know, despite its fifteen-year history and far-reaching positive impact on the planet about to unfurl. With early NCRIS investment via AuScope, the quiet achieving HyLogger has changed the game for critical minerals hunters.

Partners, Geoscience Australia set to lead the charge on two world class projects.

Hydrogeologists demonstrate that AuScope code is critical for advanced geotechnical risk assessment.

Geodetic tool dramatically advances severe storm detection in Australia, thus reducing economic impact through property damage and, in some cases, injury and loss of life.
