Austin

True north, grid north, and magnetic north are shown diagrammatically for the centre of the map. Magnetic north is correct for 2011 and moves westerly by approx. 40" annually

Mineralization sites on this map have been extracted from GSWA's MINEDEX database. For clarity, names have been shown only for selected sites. Full details of site numbers, site locations, site status, mineralization, and commodities can be obtained from the MINEDEX database, accessed at .

YALOGINDA FORMATION: felsic volcaniclastic rocks and banded iron-formation; local quartzite; widely intruded by layered gabbroic to peridotitic sills; metamorphosed Psammitic and pelitic schist interlayered on a metre to decametre scale; locally strongly sheared Strongly foliated metachert, locally ferruginous Meta banded iron-formation; typically with coarse, granular, and recrystallized magnetite crystals; foliated Mixed jaspilitic chert and iron formation, interlayered with ultramafic schist Strongly foliated metabasalt and local amphibolite Silicified meta-ultramafic rock Mylonitized meta-ultramafic rock
