Recent exploration results, in the form of drilling intercepts and resource figures, are presented along with resource figures for operating mines on this map. The information is sourced from selected exploration results and resource calculations published in company reports available to the public.

AEM curtains are a set of cross-sections generated using geophysical inversion to convert AEM data to conductivity (m/S) versus depth below surface (m). These data represent the conductivity of soil and rocks to a depth of about 400 m. A pseudocolour-stretch has been applied to the data. Blue represents low conductivity values and red represents high values. The colours vary due to; (1) natural variations in the electrical properties of soils, rocks, minerals and groundwater, (2) man-made structures, radio-transmissions and lightning strike and (3) AEM system artefacts.

The NSW Government has clearly identified areas where higher priority land uses mean that coal mining cannot occur. For the State Significant Development application SSD5156 - Rocky Hill area, the prohibition will apply to open cut mining only. Otherwise, within this area coal mining will be prohibited by State Environmental Planning Policy.

This vector contains the boundary of the MinEx Collaborative Research Centre (CRC) Cobar Airborne Electromagnetic (AEM) surveydivided into three areas. This division is based on the flight line spacing which varies from 2.5 to 5.0 km. This survey was a collaboration between the Geological Survey of NSW and Geoscience Australia.

The isotope geochemistry database contains geochronology and geological process data managed by the Geological Survey of NSW (GSNSW). Isotopic systems / techniques are U/Pb, K/Ar, Ar/Ar, Rb/Sr, Pb/Pb, Re/Os, Sm/Nd, Lu/Hf and stable sulfur, carbon, oxygen and hydrogen. The database stores location and sample collection information, lithological description, analytical and interpretation information for geological samples in New South Wales. The database includes links to stratigraphic unit, mineral occurrence and drill hole data. Some fields are controlled by look up tables.
