Geology of Queensland 2013

Geological observations in Queensland began during the early exploration in 1844, but soon became focussed on discovery of gold to support the new colony. Since 1872 when the first map of Queensland geology was drawn, many upgrades have been produced. Much of the geological investigations in Queensland have been driven by the need to discover new resources to support the State. The new map and book are the culmination of 170 years of studies in the state.
