Search historical geological reports for mineral exploration.

RadiXplore helps geologists and exploration teams find and investigate historical exploration reports and their underlying evidence across supported jurisdictions. Search within an area, trace reports and observations back to original sources, and use geological context to understand what previous explorers actually did.

What can you search?

Go beyond report titles and metadata.

Historical exploration knowledge often sits inside lengthy PDFs, scanned reports, handwritten documents, appendices, drilling records, maps and tables. A title or keyword search can miss relevant work when explorers used different terminology or methods.

RadiXplore brings together searchable historical records and mining-specific evidence so you can investigate the exploration record in context.

  • By location

    Start from a region, project or area of interest and find associated historical exploration information.

  • By geological concept

    Investigate geological ideas and observations without relying solely on identical wording in source documents.

  • By geospatial concept heatmap

    Map the geographical distribution of evidence matching a geological concept or search query, then investigate the underlying reports and records for the mapped results.

  • By report or exploration activity

    Follow past programmes and inspect what was documented, tested, reported or recommended.

  • By technical evidence

    Examine drilling, assay, geochemical, spatial and other structured data where available and validated for the jurisdiction.

  • By visual evidence

    Locate maps, figures and tables associated with the report archive where they have been processed.

Turn a geological concept into a spatial investigation

Search the concept. See where the evidence appears.

Historical geological reports can refer to related observations in different places and under different terminology. RadiXplore's geospatial search heatmap lets users visualise where evidence matching a searched geological concept is represented geographically. Use it to investigate areas of interest and move from a mapped result back to the supporting report or available evidence.

Original sources remain important.

RadiXplore does not replace geological survey archives. Those archives are the original source repositories. RadiXplore adds a mining-specific search, evidence-connection and investigation layer over the supported sources.

When a finding matters, you need to inspect where it came from. RadiXplore is designed to keep important observations and inferences connected to source reports and underlying evidence wherever available.

Search across supported jurisdictions.

A project may sit within one jurisdiction, but the geological research often spans several collections. RadiXplore provides a single starting point for supported historical archives and data types.

Coverage is not identical everywhere. Some collections are searchable in the platform; others may be processed, enriched or available through a scoped engagement.

From a report to the exploration story

Finding a report can answer a question about one programme. Understanding the broader exploration history requires more.

RadiXplore connects the historical work across time, location, operator and geological interpretation. Its Mining World Model supports investigation of what was observed, why work was conducted where the records establish that rationale, what was tested, what changed and what remained unresolved.

This provides a path from finding the evidence to understanding the evidence and finally to deciding what deserves further geological evaluation.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Historical geological and mineral exploration reports are foundational to RadiXplore. Supported archives can be searched and investigated in context, with available evidence linked to its source.

No. Geological survey portals remain authoritative sources of original records. RadiXplore builds on supported sources to help users search and connect evidence across documents, locations and exploration history.

No. Coverage depends on the jurisdiction, source collection and stage of processing. Check the data coverage page for current supported collections and access status.

No. The geospatial heatmap visualises the geographic distribution of evidence matching the search query. It should not be interpreted as a predictive mineral prospectivity map. Users need to inspect the source evidence, location accuracy and geological context before drawing conclusions.

Where structured drillhole, assay or related technical datasets are covered and validated, RadiXplore can support searches involving those data. Availability varies by region and workflow.

No. RadiXplore searches, connects and reasons across mining evidence. It surfaces unresolved questions and evidence-backed possibilities for experts to evaluate, rather than predicting that a deposit exists.

RadiXplore can work with proprietary archives through a scoped Enterprise Intelligence engagement, subject to agreed access, security and data-use arrangements.
