Abstract:
The Commission maintains a data base first computerised in 1957 and containing information from over 18,000 boreholes located mainly in the Latrobe Valley area. Some of the borehole derived information dates from the tum of the century, although most of it has been collected as a result of Commission investigations conducted over the past 40 years. The Resource Data Base contains not only information gained directly from the drilling itself but includes the results of chemical and physical testing on many hundreds of thousands of samples retrieved from boreholes.
