Abstract
Summary Current declining mineral discovery rates mean fewer future mines. The Mineral Exploration Cooperative Research Centre (MinEx CRC) is a consortium of 36 Participants creating new opportunities for mineral discovery by delivering; 1) more productive, safer and environmentally friendly drilling methods; 2) new technologies for collecting data while drilling and; 3) exploration data on never before sampled rocks in Australia that are hidden but prospective for minerals. The innovative exploration outcomes through industry and researcher cooperation will also grow the high value Mining Equipment, Technology and Services (METS) sector.
