The BMR was a geological survey with the main objective was the systematic geological and geophysical mapping of the continent as the basis for informed mineral exploration. [ 6 ] Geoscience Australia's activities have expanded and today it has responsibility for meeting the Australian Government's geoscience requirements.

[2] It produced maps and audiovisual products relative to many aspects of Australian geography from the technology available during its time of operation. [3] [4] It was formed in 1987, when the Australian Survey Office [5] joined with the Division of National Mapping. The Australian Survey Office had been established in 1910. [6]
This map shows the border of the Greater Green River Basin, along with the subbasins and arches that make up the overall basin. The Greater Green River Basin (GGRB) is a 21,000 square mile basin located in Southwestern Wyoming. The Basin was formed during the Cretaceous period sourced by underlying Permian and Cretaceous deposits.
Prior to the Atlas series, there were dated maps without text or indexes.. 1906 [2] The 1906 map created by Maitland Brown was a major accomplishment to tie in the range of mineral fields and administrative issues regarding mining in the state, when technology had not conquered distances and logistic issues in updating information about discoveries or mines.
Simplified geological map of the Kimberley region, showing the three major zones of the Lamboo Complex. Inset shows the location on the continent of Australia. The current regional geology of the Kimberley can be divided into three major units: [2] the Kimberley Craton (underlying the Speewah and Kimberley Basins).
The geology of Wyoming includes some of the oldest Archean rocks in North America, overlain by thick marine and terrestrial sediments formed during the Paleozoic, Mesozoic and Cenozoic, including oil, gas and coal deposits. Throughout its geologic history, Wyoming has been uplifted several times during the formation of the Rocky Mountains ...
Fossil Mountain (10,921 feet (3,329 m)) is located in the Teton Range, within the Jedediah Smith Wilderness of Caribou-Targhee National Forest, U.S. state of Wyoming. [3]As mapped by J. D. Love and others, the peak of Fossil Mountain consists of relatively flat-lying beds of the Mississippian Madison Limestone and underlying Devonian Darby Formation.
