This interdisciplinary project links geochemistry with crustal-scale fluid migration, aiming to improve mineral exploration success for orogenic gold deposits. In doing so, it intends to provide a more holistic view of gold deposit genesis. This project plans to focus on the Victorian goldfields, which have world-class historic gold production, an existing seismic transect, and a geologic setting that will address key problems in gold deposit genesis. A series of modelling techniques will be used to marry structural and geochemical aspects of gold deposit formation at a scale that has not been previously attempted.

这个跨学科项目将地球化学与地壳规模的流体运移联系起来，旨在提高造山金矿床的矿产勘探成功率。这样做的目的是提供有关金矿成因的更全面的观点。该项目计划重点关注维多利亚金矿，该金矿拥有世界一流的历史黄金产量、现有的地震横断面以及将解决金矿成因关键问题的地质环境。将使用一系列建模技术以前所未有的规模将金矿形成的结构和地球化学方面结合起来。
