      A major challenge that bedrock mineral exploration faces in many parts of South Australia is exploring efficiently and effectively through extensive and thick cover. The Coompana regolith map aims to provide a broad-scale framework for guiding surface geochemical prospecting for a wide range of minerals and materials, as a basis for guiding mineral exploration, and to provide a useful dataset for addressing other land use issues like groundwater.
