Exploring for the Future: Final Online Public Showcase

Geoscience Australia is set to share the final Exploring for the Future online public showcase from 13–16 August 2024, marking the conclusion of this remarkable 8 year program and celebrating its lasting legacy.

 

Launched in 2016 with a $225 million investment, the Exploring for the Future program has been dedicated to gathering, analysing, and providing precompetitive geoscience data, information, and tools.

 

These resources have supported decision-making by government, community, and industry regarding the sustainable development of Australia's mineral, energy, and groundwater resources, aiding in our transition to net zero by 2050.
