MinEx CRC

#MinExCRC is the world's largest #mineral exploration collaboration driven by industry, government and research organisations.

[MinEx CRC @CrcMinex]

Over the past two days, #MinExCRC's #postgraduatestudents have taken centre stage, presenting their latest #research during our online 2026 Postgraduate Student Workshops. Thank you to each of our presenters, our organisers and everyone who joined us to support our students.

Congratulations to #MinExCRC student Dr Emad Al-Hemyari on completing his PhD at @CurtinUni!

His research advanced the use of passive DAS data for subsurface characterisation in mineral exploration and resource development.

Emad is our 27th postgraduate completion.

Big challenges need real collaboration. New work by #MinExCRC researchers at #UWA shows how open-source tools can recover stratigraphy from drillhole data & quantify uncertainty, unlocking more value from existing datasets.
