    Description

    The Abandoned Mine Sites database is an inventory of abandoned mine sites recommended by the Minerals Environment Liaison Committee in 1994. Following a fatal accident at an abandoned mine site near Cue in 1997, the Western Australian Government initiated funding for an ongoing program within the then Department of Minerals and Energy to develop an inventory of these sites in the State. The digital product has been released annually since December 2002, and contains records for mining-related features, which cover about 76% of the high priority historic mine sites in Western Australia. This is a comprehensive digital database of abandoned mine sites that includes photographs of individual underground and surface excavations, dumps, and rehabilitation and infrastructure features. Mining-related features are illustrated and described by morphological criteria and key attributes. Selected georeferenced historic GSWA maps and bulletins are also included. The inventory provides baseline data on historical mining-related features in Western Australia, thereby forming a solid foundation for future independent assessments of hazards, heritage value, and environmental impact. The database also provides a valuable contribution to the spatial distribution of mineralization in historical mining areas.

    Description

    AbstractThis map shows the location and status of Australian operating mines, mines under development and mines under care and maintenance as at December 2024. Operating mines represent projects that were operational as at December 2024. Developing mines are deposits where the project has a positive feasibility study, development has commenced or all approvals have been received. Mines under care and maintenance represent those projects with known resource estimations where production has ceased but the site is managed to ensure it remains in a safe and stables condition, with potential to recommence operations in the future.CurrencyDate Modified: 1 February 2025Modification Frequency: AnnuallyData ExtentSpatial ExtentNorth: -10.0°South: -44.0°East: 156.0°West: 105.0°Source InformationThe Australian Operating Mines Map and Data (2024) is available in different formats from the Geoscience Australia"s Product Catalogue.Catalogue Entry: Australian Operating Mines Map 2024Lineage StatementThis dataset was created by the Minerals, Energy and Groundwater Division from Geoscience Australia.Note: The Digital Atlas of Australia downloaded the Australian Operating Mines Map Data 2024 (XLSX) in April 2025; this was then converted into a Point Feature Class using Geoprocessing tools in ArcGIS Pro.

    Description

    Abstract

    This dataset and its metadata statement were supplied to the Bioregional Assessment Programme by a third party and are presented here as originally supplied

    The following spreadsheets are a flattened version of the data available in the Mines Atlas mapping application.

    Operating Mines

    The coverage contains data such as locations, mine names, commodity and weblinks. The information was sourced from Geoscience Australia's OZMIN database.

    http://www.australianminesatlas.gov.au/mapping/downloads.html

    Purpose

    This dataset has been used as a proxy dataset to spatially locate volumes of extraction in the Hunter and Gloucester subregions where records from NSW office of Water science with volume were unable to be connected to a bore in NSW NGIS Extract

    Dataset History

    "This dataset and its metadata statement were supplied to the Bioregional Assessment Programme by a third party and are presented here as originally supplied

    In 2003 - 2004 Geoscience Australia developed the Australian Atlas of Mineral Resources, Mines, and Processing Centres - the Australian Mines Atlas - with its supporting partners Minerals Council of Australia and Department of Resources, Energy and Tourism.

    Subsequently, the Mines Atlas is continually being updated with new mineral resource, location data and company web links.

    Top

    Aims

    The Atlas aims to:

    provide an authoritative understanding of Australia's known mineral and energy (solid fuel) assets, mines and production/processing centres (existing and planned)
    
    present factual data that can assist with planning, decision making, investment, education and management of the environment
    
    complement other national data sets dealing with land use, population, soils, agriculture, climate, water and vegetation
    
    show where, and how, the mining industry is placed to continue its contribution to regional development in Australia and sustain its role as a major exporter of mineral commodities.
    

    The Atlas delivers authoritative minerals and mining information to individual Australians and provides a virtual-showcase of the industry for global audiences.

    Top

    Objectives

    The Atlas was developed as a working tool for use whenever and wherever customers can access the internet. It allows users to examine and evaluate digital spatial data related to the minerals industry against an array of infrastructure, demographic, resource and environmental dimensions.

    The key objective of the Atlas is to serve the needs of diverse clients in many ways, including as:

    a reliable and up-to-date reference with links to site specific and more detailed information, either directly, as for mineral resources, or through links, such as linking to the website of each particular owner company
    
    an interactive decision support system with small-scale, map-making capability
    
    a framework and instrument for education
    
    an aid to visualise and understand complex issues relating to regional development of mining and mineral processing activities, and identify/promote opportunities for employment in remote areas
    
    an aid to industry research.

    Description

    These data are part of a larger USGS project to develop an updated geospatial database of mines, mineral deposits and mineral regions in the United States. Mine and prospect-related symbols, such as those used to represent prospect pits, mines, adits, dumps, tailings, etc., hereafter referred to as “mine” symbols or features, are currently being digitized on a state-by-state basis from the 7.5-minute (1:24,000-scale) and the 15-minute (1:48,000 and 1:62,500-scale) archive of the USGS Historical Topographic Maps Collection, or acquired from available databases (California and Nevada, 1:24,000-scale only). Compilation of these features is the first phase in capturing accurate locations and general information about features related to mineral resource exploration and extraction across the U.S. To date, the compilation of 500,000-plus point and polygon mine symbols from approximately 67,000 maps of 22 western states has been completed: Arizona (AZ), Arkansas (AR), California (CA), Colorado (CO), Idaho (ID), Iowa (IA), Kansas (KS), Louisiana (LA), Minnesota (MN), Missouri (MO), Montana (MT), North Dakota (ND), Nebraska (NE), New Mexico (NM), Nevada (NV), Oklahoma (OK), Oregon (OR), South Dakota (SD), Texas (TX), Utah (UT), Washington (WA), and Wyoming (WY). The process renders not only a more complete picture of exploration and mining in the western U.S., but an approximate time line of when these activities occurred. The data may be used for land use planning, assessing abandoned mine lands and mine-related environmental impacts, assessing the value of mineral resources from Federal, State and private lands, and mapping mineralized areas and systems for input into the land management process. The data are presented as three groups of layers based on the scale of the source maps. No reconciliation between the data groups was done.

    WASTE_STRUCTURE Structure type of the mining waste

    Attribute Description Waste Type

    Waste Type Description

    Tailings Waste or residue produced from a mineral processing plant

    Cobbing waste Waste resulting from the sorting of a coarse material (e.g. through beneficiation)

    Magnetic-separation tailings Waste resulting from magnetic separation, a process based on the difference in magnetic susceptibility between minerals

    Wash tailings Waste resulting from washing which allows the upgrade of a material through a wet process, usually gravimetry (typically from a coal washery to upgrade raw coal to saleable coal)

    Flotation tailings Waste resulting from flotation, a process in which mineralised particles are separated according to their tendency to adhere more or less to air bubbles to form a mineralised oil-based froth (this feature is linked to the natural or designed hydrophobic property of the particle surface)

    Leach residues Waste resulting from the action of chemical reagents on a material, such as ore or low-grade ore, resulting in the dissolution of some of its elements (e.g. Au, Cu, Al). The hydrometallurgical process is often referred to as heap leaching (and sometimes dump leaching). Waste from aluminium processing commonly referred to as red mud is included as a leach residue.

    Wastes from mineral excavation Mine/quarry by-products and waste rock (unprocessed), including overburden, as well as low-grade ore with subeconomic concentrations of metals or minerals. Sometimes known as mullock heaps, rock dumps or rock piles

    Fly ash Waste from coal-fired power stations

    Slag Waste resulting from smelting or other pyrometallurgical processes

    Milling Waste that results from the process of milling or ore processing. May also include milling artefacts (e.g. spent grinding media, catalysts, chemicals, etc.)

    General mine waste Waste that may be from a combination of waste rock, tailings, heap leach residues, milling artefacts or hydro- or pyrometallurgical processes. May also be used where the specific waste type is unknown

    Storage Types

    Storage Types Description

    Covered Covered mining waste storage, with covers typically comprising soil, rock, geosynthetics, plastics or other materials

    Surface Uncovered mining waste storage

    Underground Mining waste storage in an underground environment

    Underwater Mining waste deposited below a natural water body

    Water cover Mining waste covered by an engineered water body - (e.g. engineered tailing storage facility (TSF) with a water cover, in-pit tailings with a water cover)

    Waste Structure Types

    Waste Structure Types Description

    Upstream dam Containment walls are constructed, usually in a series of stages, in an upstream direction. Construction begins with a starter dam which forms the foundation for subsequent levels as the dam is raised. Each new dam level is built on the inside or ‘upstream’ of the previous dam wall

    Downstream dam Containment walls are constructed, usually in a series of stages, in a downstream direction. Construction begins with a starter dam which forms the foundation for subsequent levels as the dam is raised. Each new dam level is built on, and is supported by the outside or ‘downstream’ slope of the previous dam wall

    Centreline dam Containment walls are constructed, usually in a series of stages, in a hybrid of upstream and downstream building methods. Construction begins with a starter dam, which forms the foundation for subsequent levels as the dam is raised. The dam wall remains fixed relative to upstream and downstream directions as the dam is sequentially built

    Single stage dam A single-stage dam is built to full height in one stage with no further additions

    Landform Excavated rock, clay or soil, deposited and shaped to resemble a natural landform such as a hill. Typically shaped to minimise erosion

    In-pit An open-cut mine backfilled with waste material. Dam walls may or may not be built around the edge to increase capacity

    Waste rock dump Rock excavated from a mine and deposited in engineered locations. Also known as mullock heaps, rock dumps and rock piles

    Unknown Used where there is insufficient information available to determine the structure type

    Evaporation pond A shallow dam or structure designed to maximise evaporation of water to concentrate dissolved salts

    Dry-stacked Tailings that have been dewatered to below saturation point and, typically, deposited in piles to form a dense and stable ‘dry-stack’. Typically used to return water to the processing circuit, often recovering spent reagents or chemicals for re-use in processing

    Waste Status Types

    Waste Status Types Description

    Currently used Site was in operation at the time of data entry

    Not in use Site was not in operation at the time of data entry. This includes, but is not limited to, sites under care and maintenance, decommissioned sites, sites being rehabilitated and rehabilitated sites

    Rehabilitated Status

    Rehabilitated Status Description

    Y There is evidence that rehabilitation work has been undertaken on the mine waste structure, which may have been guided by environmental regulations or best practice at the time of rehabilitation. This includes, but is not limited to, reshaping a structure to prevent erosion and increase slope stability, application of rock, clay or soil (or a combination of) to encapsulate the waste, prevent water infiltration or provide growth media for revegetation and regeneration. A combination of rehabilitation methods may be used; this will vary depending on the environment, structure type and material contained

    N There is no evidence that rehabilitation work has been undertaken on the mine waste structure. This includes, but is not limited to sites currently used, sites in care and maintenance, decommissioned sites or sites where there is no aerial evidence or publicly available information to determine rehabilitation status

Mine and prospect-related symbols, such as those used to represent prospect pits, mines, adits, dumps, tailings, etc., hereafter referred to as “mine” symbols or features, have been digitized from the 7.5-minute (1:24,000, 1:25,000-scale; and 1:10,000, 1:20,000 and 1:30,000-scale in Puerto Rico only) and the 15-minute (1:48,000 and 1:62,500-scale; 1:63,360-scale in Alaska only) archive of the USGS Historical Topographic Map Collection (HTMC), or acquired from available databases (California and Nevada, 1:24,000-scale only). Compilation of these features is the first phase in capturing accurate locations and general information about features related to mineral resource exploration and extraction across the U.S. The compilation of 725,690 point and polygon mine symbols from approximately 106,350 maps across 50 states, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico (PR) and the District of Columbia (DC) has been completed: Alabama (AL), Alaska (AK), Arizona (AZ), Arkansas (AR), California (CA), Colorado (CO), Connecticut (CT), Delaware (DE), Florida (FL), Georgia (GA), Hawaii (HI), Idaho (ID), Illinois (IL), Indiana (IN), Iowa (IA), Kansas (KS), Kentucky (KY), Louisiana (LA), Maine (ME), Maryland (MD), Massachusetts (MA), Michigan (MI), Minnesota (MN), Mississippi (MS), Missouri (MO), Montana (MT), Nebraska (NE), Nevada (NV), New Hampshire (NH), New Jersey (NJ), New Mexico (NM), New York (NY), North Carolina (NC), North Dakota (ND), Ohio (OH), Oklahoma (OK), Oregon (OR), Pennsylvania (PA), Rhode Island (RI), South Carolina (SC), South Dakota (SD), Tennessee (TN), Texas (TX), Utah (UT), Vermont (VT), Virginia (VA), Washington (WA), West Virginia (WV), Wisconsin (WI), and Wyoming (WY). The process renders not only a more complete picture of exploration and mining in the U.S., but an approximate timeline of when these activities occurred. These data may be used for land use planning, assessing abandoned mine lands and mine-related environmental impacts, assessing the value of mineral resources from Federal, State and private lands, and mapping mineralized areas and systems for input into the land management process. These data are presented as three groups of layers based on the scale of the source maps. No reconciliation between the data groups was done.Datasets were developed by the U.S. Geological Survey Geology, Geophysics, and Geochemistry Science Center (GGGSC). Compilation work was completed by USGS National Association of Geoscience Teachers (NAGT) interns: Emma L. Boardman-Larson, Grayce M. Gibbs, William R. Gnesda, Montana E. Hauke, Jacob D. Melendez, Amanda L. Ringer, and Alex J. Schwarz; USGS student contractors: Margaret B. Hammond, Germán Schmeda, Patrick C. Scott, Tyler Reyes, Morgan Mullins, Thomas Carroll, Margaret Brantley, and Logan Barrett; and by USGS personnel Virgil S. Alfred, Damon Bickerstaff, E.G. Boyce, Madelyn E. Eysel, Stuart A. Giles, Autumn L. Helfrich, Alan A. Hurlbert, Cheryl L. Novakovich, Sophia J. Pinter, and Andrew F. Smith.USMIN project website: https://www.usgs.gov/USMIN

    Description

    AbstractThis map shows the location and status of Australian operating mines, mines under development and mines under care and maintenance as at December 2024. Operating mines represent projects that were operational as at December 2024. Developing mines are deposits where the project has a positive feasibility study, development has commenced or all approvals have been received. Mines under care and maintenance represent those projects with known resource estimations where production has ceased but the site is managed to ensure it remains in a safe and stables condition, with potential to recommence operations in the future.CurrencyDate Modified: 1 February 2025Modification Frequency: AnnuallyData ExtentSpatial ExtentNorth: -10.0°South: -44.0°East: 156.0°West: 105.0°Source InformationThe Australian Operating Mines Map and Data (2024) is available in different formats from the Geoscience Australia"s Product Catalogue.Catalogue Entry: Australian Operating Mines Map 2024Lineage StatementThis dataset was created by the Minerals, Energy and Groundwater Division from Geoscience Australia.Note: The Digital Atlas of Australia downloaded the Australian Operating Mines Map Data 2024 (XLSX) in April 2025; this was then converted into a Point Feature Class using Geoprocessing tools in ArcGIS Pro.

    Description

    Mineral resource occurrence data covering the world, most thoroughly within the U.S. This database contains the records previously provided in the Mineral Resource Data System (MRDS) of USGS and the Mineral Availability System/Mineral Industry Locator System (MAS/MILS) originated in the U.S. Bureau of Mines, which is now part of USGS. The MRDS is a large and complex relational database developed over several decades by hundreds of researchers and reporters. While database records describe mineral resources worldwide, the compilation of information was intended to cover the United States completely, and its coverage of resources in other countries is incomplete. The content of MRDS records was drawn from reports previously published or made available to USGS researchers. Some of those original source materials are no longer available. The information contained in MRDS was intended to reflect the reports used as sources and is current only as of the date of those source reports. Consequently MRDS does not reflect up-to-date changes to the operating status of mines, ownership, land status, production figures and estimates of reserves and resources, or the nature, size, and extent of workings. Information on the geological characteristics of the mineral resource are likely to remain correct, but aspects involving human activity are likely to be out of date.
