Groundwater contaminants in reef catchments

Mineral systems of Cape York, Queensland

Ms Courteney Dhnaram (Geoscientist, Geological Survey of Queensland)
Why are we interested in the timing and genesis of widespread gold mineralisation within the Cape York region? Understanding how, when and why these deposits formed provides context for mineral explorers to discover new deposits. That's why!

Courteney Dhnaram has worked as a geologist with the Geological Survey of Queensland for 14 years. She has contributed to a number of regional to camp scale projects within Queensland, focusing on characterising gold and copper-gold mineral systems.
