Northern Territory Magnetics (1VD)
Northern Territory aeromagnetics, sharpened to show gold-controlling structures.
What it shows
An aeromagnetic image of the Northern Territory, flown from aircraft, that maps the magnetism of the rocks below, including under soil and cover where nothing shows at the surface. This is the vertical derivative of the magnetic grid, a processed version that sharpens the edges so faults, shear zones, intrusion margins and ironstone stand out as lines and patterns. These structures are where fluids moved and gold can sit. It is a picture map, so it is look-only: tapping, recolouring and filtering are not available. Read it alongside geology to trace a fault or contact into new ground, especially where the surface gives little away.
Putting this on your map
Taking a layer from the Library onto a stack, and tuning how it draws, is a short guided tour on your own map.
